Can I turn off automatic download of Itunes Extras
This has been asked before by someone else but they recieved no answers so I'll try again.
Can I turn off automatic download of Itunes Extras. I never use them and have to delete them and they hold up downloads of what I want?
ThanksThanks Michael. I had no idea that that menu was even there, and it seems odd that it's not accessible frome the regular menu bar (or is it??). But indeed, I do see it now and this may help. The reason I said this approach is still less than ideal is that it will require me to remember all of the accidental unflaggings between syncs to my computer, and then manually reflag everything.... and if I want to be sure to do it right I'll have to take notes etc, which is quite a burden just to get around something that used to work effortlessly and automatically until Apple "improved" it... But thanks!

HT203433 I can't consistently disable automatic downloads from iTunes
I keep trying to disable automatic downloads from iTunes (don't want TV shows I've purchased through my Apple TV to download onto my computer), by going to iTunes - Preferences - Store - and it works for a while, then it starts to automatically download these TV shows again when I open iTunes. So it works some of the time, but not consistently. Very frustrating! Can anyone help?
After reading some of the similar posts on here, I tried removing all the items from the iTunes downloads folder on my hard drive, and signing out from the iTunes store. Signing out from the iTunes store solved the problem temporarily, but as soon as I signed in again, the automatic downloads started again. When I looked in the iTunes downloads folder, there they were again - the .tmp files of the TV shows I DON'T want on my computer. Now I have another problem. When I went back into iTunes to check if the Store Preferences were still set to NO automatic downloads, I found those choices greyed out. They were still set to disable automatic downloads (no tick in those boxes) but now I can't change them at all. So I must have thrown out something I needed when I threw the contents of the downloads folder into the trash, and then emptied the trash. I tried to get the trash back using Time Machine, but couldn't find it in there. Sighhhh! I'm at my wits end and now I'm afraid to make things any worse than they already are.

I can't turn on automatic downloads on my ipad2: why not?
I have IOS5.0.1 and ITunes 10.5.1.42. I want to use iCloud and and automatically get downloads made on other devices. In Settings/Store, when I slide the on/off button to "ON" it just slides back to "OFF", for each of Music, Apps and Books. Why is this and what can I do about it (I have spent about 1.5 hours trawling around the ITunes site and reading the manuals and articles and I'm worn out...

How do I turn off automatic downloads on Itunes to my PC?
I have one apple ID for our family. My sons download tons of music and apps, most of which I have no interest in. However, when I open Itunes, all of their stuff downloads to my PC which is taking up too much room. I don't want their music on my computer. How can I stop their songs and apps from downloading? I've tried checking the obvious boxes in Preferences, but the downloads begin as I'm checking the boxes.
Any suggestions?For TV series and Movies, they should only ever download to your computer if they are 'Unwatched' episodes/features. If so, go to the TV Shows and/or Movies section in iTunes (under Library pane on the left of your screen). If there are 'Unwatched' episodes, a little red circle with a number in it should appearin the corner of every TV show cover. Just right click each cover and select 'Mark as watched'. They should stop downloading then.
As for music, I suppose Jon_E may be right. And it's not elegant, but that's iTunes! Why Apple outsourced the development of some of it's most heavily used software to a third party developer is beyond me. It should really be a little more intuitive. Surely they've received plenty of feedback to that effect?
Good luck! -

Where can i find automatic download for itune
How can I get to ''automatic download'' to transfer my new purchase on itune in Icloud ?
If it is available in your area it'll be on the following page:
Settings>Store.
There will be two switches, one to turn on automatic downloads of music, and the other for apps. If its available in your country then that's where you'll find it. -

Simply uncheck the same boxes you used to turn on Automatic downloads.

I downloaded the latest iTunes and I now can't open it or download another iTunes also the icon has turned to an application icon also no safari server
Take a look at this Apple document -> iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
Are you seeing a user-specific or system-wide problem?
Also, on a Mac you can reset Safari from Safari> Reset Safari, you'll probably see a similar option in the Safari menubar on your Windows computer. -

I recently bought a new ipod 4 gen 32 G. I had an 8 g .I'm trying to turn on automatic downloads so when I buy a song from Itunes it automatically downloads without plugging it into computer to sync. When I turn on Auto Downloads, It say...This device is already Associated with an apple ID You can auto-download purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 30 days. When I click OK it turns th downloads off..Can someone help me? I've returned the 8g to regular factory settings as I'm giving it to a friend.
You have to wait. See:
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
You can still sync the media from your iTunes library -
Turning off 'automatic downloads'
For the last few weeks, whenever I connect my iPhone (and possibly my iPad) I get an iTunes window asking me to "enter account name and password" for 'automatic downloads'. I don't understand what 'automatic downloads' are, and iTunes Help doesn't tell me how to stop this window popping up (Help just tells me how to set up automatic downloads).
Anyone here know what it's all about, and how to stop it?This is a feature that lets you automatically receive items purchased from other devices. Things you buy from your computer can be pushed to your iPhone, iPad, etc. Things you purchase on your iPhone can be pushed ot your computer, iPad, etc.
If you don't want this:
In iTunes, go to Edit/ Preferences/ Store and turn off automatic downloads.
On all your iOS devices, go to Settings/ Store/ and turn off automatic downloads.
