Connection of iPhone4 to PC

Question

Hello, everybody.
So, I got a problem here. I've got my iPhone 4, and I wanted to transfer some pictures and music to it from my PC. But every time I connect the phone to PC, appears iTunes and starts to sync. I tried out deleting iTunes, but it's still the same - no autorun, the PC doesn't recognize the phone as a device. Is there any way to change it?

Hi,
I imagine it's a bit of a pain, but it sounds like there is a conflict somewhere. The only other thing could be settings under the power options to stop hard drives or display after certain amount of time. Then there's always te happy thought of a virus, but hopefully not.
First double check power options (I know it's annoying) by right clicking on the screen going to the screen saver page and selecting the power management options, look to ensure that on both battery and plug, had disk and video are set to "Never". Additionally, ensure that power management isn't being handled by the Sony Vaio software.
Next, with the iPod plugged in, go to hardware manager and delete at least the iPod from where it appears. Ideally delete everything relating to USB, including the controller and then reboot with nothing else attached. Ensure that windows adds back each USB item one at a time. This will eliminate the chance of corruption (hopefully).
Two other things to try.
1.) remove allother USB devices, even printer, and just have the iPod connected. If there is a conflict with another device this will help determine that.
2.) make sure that the iPod is connected directly to a SUB port on the PC and not connected through a USB hub. In the past, USB hubs have caused many sleepless nights for iPod users.
Let me know how all of this goes.
