How do I turn off the automatic action for the devices?

Hi, 

What I mean when I ask this question is when you plug in a device(ex: phone) it pops up on the side to choose an action for all of that device. 
I did that with my phone and now everytime i plug in my phone, it automatically imports all my photos and videos.

How do I turn this off?


I have an iPhone 5 & I am using the HP Envy dv7.

Hi Haley,

 

Do you want to disable the automatic action of transferring the photos when you connect the iPhone device?

 

If you want to disable the automatic action for a particular device such as the iPhone device, you can do so by choosing the appropriate action for that device under Autoplay options.

 

Refer to the link to do so:

“AutoPlay: Frequently asked questions”

“How do I make sure that I'm always asked to choose an action for a device or type of media?”
