This may be an old question. This may be a real basic question.
I have a digital camera. I have a built in card reader. I put the Secure Digtital card into the card reader and a Windows dialog box comes up. Heading: Autoplay then below Removable Disk (J
Then PICTURE OPTIONS and a list of things I can do with the pictures on the SD card on my desktop.
This all works fine. I like this. I am happy with this. And this is what I want.
I have since gone out and purchased two half way decent point and shoot compact digital pocket cameras. A Panasonic DMC-LZ7 Lumix and a Samsung S800. I like both cameras. The Panasonic is probably a better camera but I like the Samsung as it is slightly smaller. Both use AA batteries which was my requirement.
Each camera comes with its own software. I have loaded both softwares and I probably did not pay enough attention to all the dialog boxes when loading the software.
Here is the PROBLEM:
NOW, when I put any SD card into my card reader it seems that all the software is fighting with each other as to who gets the pictures. The regular Windows dialog box comes up onto screen (which I want) AND the Lumix software comes up on screen AND the Samsung photo software comes up on screen. I have to continually X or cancel the Lumix and Samsung software to get to my Windows Autoplay dialog box (which I want).
I do wish to keep all photo software as each has some features I desire. So I just don't want to uninstall one or both.
How do I stop the Lumix software and the Samsung software from immediately jumping onto my screen when I put a SD picture card into my card reader? I want to keep the default Windows Autoplay/Picture options as the only one to initially handle all my pictures.
I hope I have explained this correctly.
