<title>Open an application when you plug in a disk/camera/audio player</title>
-<comment>
- <p>Use the Removable Media capplet to decide which app should be opened when a removable drive is plugged in.</p>
-</comment>
-
+<p>You can have an application automatically start when you plug in a device - for example, you might want your photo organizer to start when you plug in a digital camera. You can also turn this off, so that nothing happens when you plug something in.</p>
+
+<p>To decide which applications should start when you plug in various devices:</p>
+
+<steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Click your name on the top bar and click <gui>System Settings</gui>.</p>
+ </item>
+
+ <item>
+ <p>Open <gui>Removable Media</gui> and change the options under <gui>Select how media should be handled</gui>.</p>
+ <p>Instead of simply starting an application, you can also set it so that:</p>
+ <list>
+ <item><p>The device will be shown in the File Manager (choose <gui>Open folder</gui>)</p></item>
+ <item><p>You will be asked what to open (<gui>Ask what to do</gui>)</p></item>
+ <item><p>Nothing at all will happen (<gui>Do nothing</gui>).</p></item>
+ </list>
+ </item>
+
+ <item>
+ <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>
+ </item>
+
+ <item>
+ <p>If you can't see the device/media type that you want to change on the list (for example, Blu-ray discs), click <gui>Other Media</gui> to see a more detailed list of devices.</p>
+ </item>
+</steps>
+
+<note style="tip">
+ <title>Don't open <em>any</em> applications automatically</title>
+ <p>If you don't want any applications to be opened automatically, whatever you plug in, check <gui>Never prompt or start programs on media insertion</gui> at the bottom of the Removable Media window.</p>

+ <p>When you rename a file, only the first part of the name of the file is selected, not the file extension (the part after the "."). The extension normally denotes what type of file it is (e.g. <file>file.pdf</file> is a PDF document), and you usually do not want to change that. If you need to change the extension as well, select it with your mouse, or press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>A</key></keyseq> to select the entire file name.</p>
