Overall, I'm pleased with the organizer in Photoshop Elements 3.0. I do however have one problem. The import window pops up when I plug in any external media. This is great when I connect my digital camera. However, the same auto-import screen comes up when I plug in my iPod. This is a slight hassel. As it rushes to list all 3,000+ songs on my iPod's disk, the processor becomes so bogged down that it takes several minutes to even cancel the operation. Does anyone know of a way to tell Elements not to auto import select drives? I've checked all of the options provided in the Organizer and can't seem to find anything.

Thanks!

yup, in XP you can change this in services;

here's the path; (WinXP)

click Start>right click ' My Computer'>click 'manage'>services and applications>services> Photoshop Elements device connect' set to disable or manual. Disable means it will not longer manage your camera/card reader/ scanner input. This is where i have mine set. I haven't tried the 'manual' setting yet but this sounds like it may be your preference.
