iTunes doesn't start when I plug iPad/iPhone in to my Macbook Pro. If I open iTunes it will sync. I have checked and the checkmark for start iTunes when this device is connected is checked. When I plug them into Macbook iPhoto starts, but iTunes does not.
iPad 2, iOS 5.1
The fact that iPhoto starts is the clue.
Open the program Image Capture on your MacBook Pro. It's in Applications > Utilities
Then look in the preferences for Image Capture. One of the presences will ask what to do when you connect a camera to your MacBook Pro. Select the choice Nothing. Then safe that preference.
Now try connecting your iPad and see if iTunes behaves as it should.

There are no preferences for Image capture. I selected to not start iPhoto when camera is connected. Still no luck. Any other ideas?
I solved the issue. I connected the iPhone/iPad and unchecked the option to start iTunes then selected apply. I quit iTunes and opened it again and selected start when iPhone/iPad are connected and selected apply. IT WORKED !!!!
iTunes does not start when devices plugged in.
