Hi Tim,

When you Quit iPhoto does iTunes recognise your iPhone then?

If so, you can prevent iPhoto from launching automatically when any digital 
camera is connected via iPhoto preferences under the General tab. 

When the iPhone includes photos and/or video in the Camera Roll it is also 
detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. 

Cheers,
Ronni
