Well, we did. It fucking sucks. So we went to Lightroom. And of course, 
it's pretty hard to find the "don't open fucking Photos when you attach 
the fucking camera" button and of course, Apple in their ignorance and 
greed have removed the Preferences from Image Capture.

So, we will not be spending any time at all with Photos which 
righteously sucks; we need a professional useful well-designed 
application.

Sorry to piss on your deities.

Apple have done their best to hide the fix, but it is there in Image Capture.

Open Image Capture and attach a camera or memory card with image files.
In the Image Capture window, in the lower left corner you will see an icon 
with an upward facing arrow. click on that icon.
A dialog is opened for that camera or memory card with the following:
“Connecting this camera opens” + a dropdown menu with options, choose 
“No application”. The problem is solved and you can just forget about 
Photos/iPhoto.
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1295663/FileChute/screenshot_179.jpg>

I use Lightroom and If it is open the import dialog opens automatically and 
defaults to ejection of memory card once the import is complete. If you want 
to you can add Lightroom as an optional app to open in Image Capture. I 
don't.

no they didn't, and it's also in photos too.

Are you talking to me? Read my post again. It should be perfectly 
clear that whatever his problem is with iTunes, I said Photos is 
worse.

I've reverted to iPhoto, for as long as it lasts or until Apple 
brings Photos up to the level of iPhoto, which, if this proceeds 
along the lines of the switch from iMovie HD down to iMovie, will be
never.

Regarding how to upload photos from the camera, my Canon camera came
with a Mac app that loads photos and videos to folders neatly 
labeled  by date. I like to cull my photos and give the keepers 
descriptive filenames and, when needed, preprocess them in Photoshop
Elements before importing to iPhoto.

Sorry, I completely took it the other way.

Reverting to iPhoto would have meant some hoop-jumping on a newly 
installed 10.10.3, so we went over to Lightroom. The oul' Woman quite 
liked iPhoto, but now she's totally enamoured of Lightroom, which does 
the same things for her but way better and has a direct link to 
Photoshop (it's called "Photoshop Lightroom" after all).

We've got that Canon app somehwere, but Lightroom will import the stuff 
any way we want, once it sees the camera. The dates are all in the exif 
data, which Lightroom will happily read.

What version(s) of Lightroom would work with Snow Leopard 10.6.8?

What version of OSX are you using?  I have a Canon PowerShot A630.  I 
am on 10.6.8.  BTW, how hard was it to get OS/2 installed alongside on 
your iMac.  I have eComStation 2.1.

Yosemite 10.10.3

>  I have a Canon PowerShot A630. I am on 10.6.8

I have a Canon S100 that's something over three years old. It came 
with a CD of Canon Utilities, one of which is called Camera Window 
and that's what I use to upload from the camera.

A look at the web site suggests that Canon now only supports upload 
via wi-fi. Take a look at your CD if you still have it. If not, I 
can email you a copy of the program, which may work with your 
camera. I am posting here with a valid email address so let me know 
by email if you need it.

I did that so long ago I don't even remember. I run eCS 2.0 under 
Parallels Desktop. I had written a REXX script to back up my OS/2 
system to two (!) CD-RWs of ZIP files, one CD for the system and 
another for the apps and data. I think what I did was to install eCS
from its install disks and then fetched the apps and data from the 
backup. I have propagated the eCS VM through a half-dozen versions 
of OS X and at least that many versions of Parallels Desktop.

Is there a way to get it into a laptop cursed with Yosemite?

I still have to use my old laptop with Snow Leopard for foto editing for 
the same reasons. I have a system of nested folders I prefer for storing 
them. My Nikon app also lets ME control where they go. iPhoto is just 
for making albums not dependent on a bloated Camera Roll backup that I 
can edit on the computer that will then hold still on the iPad.

If by "it" you mean iPhoto, I haven't had any problem running it 
under Yosemite. If you mean iMovie HD, that won't run so I have a 
Snow Leopard partition on an external drive that I use to work with 
movies. Apps running from the external drive can access files in
[Mac hard drive]/Users/Shared.

Yosemite has imposed Photo on the new laptop. How do I get iPhoto to 
replace it?  ( The laptops share the data file on Time Capsule, so I 
have moved some things that way)

iphoto is still there.

however, photos is better, although that isn't saying much.

You might find Photos better if you never use Places or an external 
editor or any of a half-dozen other things.

It isn't Yosemite which is cursed; PEBCAK.

You skipped over three version of OS X, yet you expect Yosemite 
(10.10.x) to operate exactly as Snow Leopard (10.6.x).  Get over it and 
please try to move forward, rather remaining stuck in a rut and 
complaining that you cannot get out.

erilar, you only /think/ you want to replace Photos on your new box.  
As Photos is part of Yosemite, you do not want to fuck with it.  
Leave it alone.  Don't use it, if that's your choice, but DO NOT 
attempt to remove it.

You can copy iPhoto from an OS X 10.9.x installation, into your 
Applications directory, via a network connection or a direct 
connection between the two machine where one is booted into target 
mode (if that's still possible).  As you've demonstrated, these 
techniques are beyond your skill set.  Contact your local "Mac Expert" 
and ask whether they can perform either of these techniques for you.

iPhoto and Photos can coexist under Yosemite.  One can use iPhoto, but 
changes may not be saved to your photo library.  This will likely be 
the case, even if you manage to remove /Applications/Photos.app from 
your new computer, Woden forbid.

It really is time for you to attempt to move on, rather than wishing 
for the past to magically become the present and future.  It ain't 
gonna happen.

no need to copy anything, since iphoto is still there.

Please do try to read for comprehension.

You seem to have missed the part regarding erilar having a new 
machine, which came with OS X 10.10.x on it, hence all the whining 
about Yosemite not being Snow Leopard.  As such, it doesn't have 
iPhoto installed.  Additionally, eliar's old iPhoto, from OS X 10.6.x, 
will likely not run on the new box.

It is because of these _facts_ that I suggested trying to copy iPhoto 
from a machine which has the most recent version of iPhoto installed.  
In retrospect, I could have as easily suggested copying it from any 
running a version of OS X, on which the most recent version of iPhoto 
(9.6.1) will run on Intel hardware.

Even so, it's possible erilar will encounter registration issues for 
the software.  Changes, in the way things are done, have occurred over 
the past decade or so.  %\
