<p>You can have an application automatically start when you plug in a device
37
or insert a disc or media card. For example, you might want your photo organizer
38
to start when you plug in a digital camera. You can also turn this off, so that
39
nothing happens when you plug something in.</p>
29
41
<p>To decide which applications should start when you plug in various devices:</p>
33
<p>Feu clic al vostre nom a la barra superior i seleccioneu <gui>Paràmetres de l'ordinador</gui>.</p>
37
<p>Click <gui>Removable Media</gui> and change the options under <gui>Select how media should be handled</gui>.</p>
38
<p>Instead of simply starting an application, you can also set it so that:</p>
40
<item><p>The device will be shown in the File Manager (choose <gui>Open folder</gui>).</p></item>
41
<item><p>You will be asked what to open (<gui>Ask what to do</gui>).</p></item>
42
<item><p>Nothing at all will happen (<gui>Do nothing</gui>).</p></item>
47
<p>The <gui>Software</gui> option is slightly different from the others - if the computer detects that there is software on a disk that you inserted, it can try to automatically run the software if you like. This is good if you have an application installed on a CD and want it to start when the disc is inserted (for example, a slideshow).</p>
51
<p>If you don't see the device or media type that you want to change in the list (such as Blu-ray discs or E-book readers), click <gui>Other Media</gui> to see a more detailed list of devices.</p>
