How can I stop Itunes from asking to allow to check for Iphone updates?

Everytime I start Itunes it tells me it wants to check for updates of my Iphone software. There is no way to turn it off - except for allowing it to do it automatically - which I dont want eather.
Its anoying and the reason why I like apple is because its not in your face al the time asking for updates...

Have you tried opening iTunes on the laptop and checking the option "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" in iTunes>Preferences>Devices (or Edit>Preferences>Devices in Windows)?

    Did you check the network setting?
    Sounds that you have set to connect automatically when a connection is not available.

  • How can i stop iTunes from Auto rating my songs??

    How can i stop iTunes from auto rating my songs in my library?? I have my library very organized and 90% of the time when i listen to music i play "My Top Rated" Playlist on shuffle. The only time i give stars ratings to my songs is for my favourite songs which i give 5 star and every other song is just left with no stars. For some reason iTunes is giving songs i have never played or i dont like 5 Stars and rewining my playlists. I have tried erasing all the stars from my entire library and since doing this a week ago, again (for the 4th time in a year) having a library with not 1 song with any star ratings, all of a sudden i now have 329 random songs with 5 stars again??????
    This is really getting to me as i love my music and love iTunes and everything apple but seriously there has to be away to stop this so i can have my old playlists back!
    Thanks hope some one can help

    One reason itunes will start "at regular intervals" will be if you have an iphone that has sync via wifi enabled. I had the problem following an upgrade to iOS 5.

    How can I STOP iTunes from automatically trying to add podcasts to my iPod when I plug it in and sync it, so I can manage the files? I have already unchecked "Sync Podcasts" and "Automatically include,"yet EVERY time I sync it,it still transfers podcasts as the last step, and at other times randomly, when trying to just add some MP3's to a playlist, for example.  I can't seem to find any other option to uncheck, and can't find an answer from my so-far internet searching.

    erict, you blew me away with that suggestion! It was something so simple I couldnt believe I hadnt thought of it! But in the end it didn't work, which I was really surprised about. On Windows anytime anything was moved itunes was hoplessly lost, but on this mac it still kept up with everything. I tried renaming folders, moving folders, and even renaming moved folders but it still kept trying to import.
    I even went as far as deleting EVERYTHING i had moved to the Mac, which didnt really work. It still kept trying to import what wasnt there which made it continue to freeze up. However, after doing this it, the freezing was not nearly as bad. It gave me enough of a break to cancel it through the itunes dialog box at the top of the app. So in the end, thats all I really needed to do, only before I had deleted everything the freezing would not allow me to do it.
    So now Im reimporting everything again, only slowly, and only a few Artists at a time.

    You can also manage all permissions on the about:permissions page via the location bar.<br />
    Use "All Sites" to set the defaults.
    You can open about:xxxx pages via the location bar like you open a website.<br />
    Firefox uses the about: protocol to access internal Firefox (setting) pages.

  • How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to computer?

    How can I stop iTunes from transferring purchased apps from iPad to my computer? I don't want them taking up space on my computer. iPad backups and apps on the cloud are enough to ensure my apps are backed up, so I don't understand why they need to be on iTunes too. I'm running Mavericks, iTunes 11.1.5 and iOS 7.0.6.

    There isn't an app for that!
    As far as I can tell there is no option to give you that control. It is worth noting that apps can be withdrawn from the store at any time. Should your device need restoring you need all the apps in your library to transfer to it before the app data can be successfully restored. Pulling that all down from the cloud would be time consuming.
    If space is becoming an issue you should consider moving the library to a bigger drive (which you should also backup to another).
    As a temporary measure you could try deleting some larger apps using Finder from within iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications while keeping the entries in your library. iTunes may complain during syncs that it cannot copy apps to the device because they cannot be found, but it should not clear them from the device. Test first on a single app that doesn't have any data that you would mind losing in case the behavior has changed from the last time I tested it.

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • How can i stop icloud from downloading all my photos onto my iphone 4s each time I sync. Then, how do I delete them from my phone, there are no delete options. I'm slowly going crazy.

    How can i stop icloud from downloading all my photos onto my iphone 4s each time I sync. Then, how do I delete them from my phone, there are no delete options. I'm slowly going crazy.

    Hi iprover,
      Let me first say that I am NO EXPERT with anything Apple and really have only started looking into this iCloud stuff a few hours ago because I'm trying to help my mom free up some space on her iCloud. But anyway, here's what I'm learning and what I THINK might be happening to you.
    Also, if any Apple support people (do they browse the forums to dish out helpful hints?) or people who probably know infinitely more than me about this stuff, please do chime in and confirm / correct my statements!
    This is what I gather.
    iCloud for Windows is set up with a local folder (let's call it "C:\Users\Administrator\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream") where iCloud will store photos uploaded to the Photo Stream. This will allow you to view your Photo Stream photos on your PC.
    This does not mean that this is a PC backup of your Photo Stream photos, but just a way to view your Photo Stream from your PC. That being said, the general Photo Stream rules apply: 1. No videos are on the photo-stream, and 2. Photos on the Photo Stream will be removed after ~30 days and/or after hitting the Photo Stream limit of 1000 photos.
    My guess is that the iCloud Windows App will delete photos from the local folder that are older than ~30 days and/or delete all but the most recent 1000 items if the 1000-item limit is reached.
    That is a scary thought! I really hope you did not lose all your pictures, but my guess is that the iCloud local folder is NOT meant for backup but instead is the iCloud Windows App's sandbox for updating and managing Photo Stream photos.
    All that being said, I'd say it's important to back up your photos in a separate folder not related to the iCloud local folder.

  • How can I stop iTunes from trying to start in another open user account?

    When I run iTunes, it often tries to open in another open User account, causing distracting Windows warning tones.  How can I stop it from trying to automatically open in the other account?

    Close iTunes before switching profiles or disable fast user switching.

  • How can I stop iTunes from numbering ripped files?

    How can I stop iTunes 11.2.1 from automatically adding numbering before track titles when I rip files from a CD? I used to be able to do this generations of iTunes ago but later versions don't seem to offer an option to turn this off. All ideas, tips, suggestions and hints welcome.

    Thanks very much for your reply. I'm not ripping music but rather audiobook CDs which I then use Audiobook Builder to create audiobooks I can "read" on my iDevice. On the odd occasion iTunes will "recognize" the audiobook CD and offer to import metadata for it ... which is almost always incorrect. Thus, I usually decline the metadata import and enter the appropriate and correct metadata via Get Info. Then, when I import the files from the CD, iTunes automatically numbers each file ahead of the file title. I was previously able to disable this behavior but I can't find any way to do so in iTunes 11.2.1. Some have said TinkerTool used to provide this feature but no longer does. I don't know if TinkerTool has a Mavericks-compatible version - I'll have to check that out. If not, then I'm still trying to find a way to disable automatic track numbering in iTunes when ripping audiobook CDs. Thanks again for your reply ... I 'preciate it.

  • How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

    So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
    Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
    Please attach a screenshot of the popup
    * [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.

  • How can i stop itunes from finding duplicate tracks from my external hard drive?

    All my music is stored on C: drive and backed up on an external hard drive. when I install I iTunes it detects all tracks from both sources giving me 20000 duplicates.  I have tried uninstalling iTunes and then installing without the external drive plugged but iTunes still shows both copies, only the f: drive version has the ! next to it. How can I get iTunes to only search in one place?

    Uninstalling and then reinstalling iTunes doesn't reset the library. To that simply delete the iTunes Library.itl file in the iTunes folder. For completeness delete the other files in that folder and the subfolder Album Artwork.
    Don't let iTunes scan the computer, or if you do disconnect all of the additional sources of media. Better not to scan and then use File > Add Folder to Library so you are in control.
    See Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy for a suggested method of keeping the original and backup of your library in sync.

  • How can I stop iTunes from downloading my iPhone contents?

    Whenever I sync my iPhone, iTunes decides it needs to download everything that's on my iPhone.  How can I turn this off?  Luckily it is only music, not apps, but it's still annoying.  I have things like "sync only checked items" checked, and I don't have it automatically sync anything at all except podcasts.  It's just that whenever I download one of my albums from iTunes on my iPhone, it decides it needs it on the computer as well.  However, there is no reason for it to be on there, because I can just stream it from the cloud if I want to listen on my computer.
    I wouldn't sync at all, but I have no other way of getting Podcasts that require a password than to use iTunes (non-protected Podcasts can be had with the Podcasts app--so handy!).
    Thanks!

    What happened to Apple wanting people to be able to use an iPhone without having a computer at all? 
    I don't mind keeping a backup on my external hard drive, but I don't want iTunes to manage that anyway.  It always makes a mess of things.  And I definitely don't want it offloading stuff onto my main hard drive.  I just don't have the space on there for all the junk, which is why I have two external hard drives in the first place.
