How to stop Preview from automatically opening photos?
Hi. I am a new Mac user (had my macbook for 2 weeks, loving it, but still learning how to use it). I am really annoyed by Preview app. Anytime I save a photo in my Download folder, it automatically opens it with Preview, whether I want it or not. When I quit Preview, it still opens the next time I download a photo. I can't find anywhere in Preview options such option to disconnect automatic opening of photos. How do I turn it off please?

In Safari there is a setting to automatically open "safe" files. Jpegs and other image files just so happen to be one of those safe files. To disable automatically opening safe files open safari preferences and on the general tab uncheck the "automatically open safe files" option.
