Thanks for the response gakker, but I've double-checked the camera / iPhoto / Image Capture scenario, and I'm 100% positive it's got nothing to do with that.
Plugging in my iPhone has no effect on anything related to this.
The other thing I should have mentioned is that when iTunes on my Mac is NOT running, then nothing happens on my iPhone screen when I plug it in to my Mac. I only get the "Sync in progress" message when iTunes IS running.
It's interesting though that you say you also get this "Sync in progress" message, albeit only for a second or two though.
Can I just double-check something with you however... When you say:
+"at no time was my iTunes playback interrupted"+
do you mean the iTunes on your Mac? Because the problem I have is that the iPod-playback on my iPhone is interrupted.
So can you clarify that for me, please? If you have music playing on your iPhone, and you then plug your iPhone into your Mac when iTunes is running on your Mac, does the music playback on the iPhone get interrupted?

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

    Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's  / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

    Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
    However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
    Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
    And the download an APP called caffiene...
    When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
    Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep

    i have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

    You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone.  That's relatively easy.  Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one.  For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

  • How Do I Stop iTunes syncing my iPhone automatically?

    I have owned an iPhone 5 for a little shy of two years now.  I love it but it has one irritating feature that I can't seem to get rid of.  When I had an iPod years ago one of the things I liked about it was the simple drag and drop method of loading songs onto the phone but that's never been possible with this iPhone.  Whenever I plug it into the computer it starts removing songs I want on it and adding songs I don't want.  I have been through iTunes' settings and as far as I can see I've set syncing to be manual and still it does this.  Increasingly I find myself avoiding adding new content to my phone because of how awkward the process is.
    To be clear, I want:
    1) When I plug the iPhone into the computer I want NOTHING to happen unless I tell iTunes to do it.  No music to be synced, backed up, deleted or anything.  I simply want iTunes to detect the phone and be ready for my instructions about what should be added or deleted.
    2) To be able to drag and drop the music I want from my library to the iPhone.
    I am using:
    iPhone 5 with ios 8.2
    iTunes 12.1.1
    I have already:
    Used "Device Preferences" to select "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPhones from syncing automatically"

    Hi,
    I'm not quite sure what you mean.  My iphone is connected to my home wifi, it doesn't change whats on the phone unless I plug it directly into my laptop though.
    I've just had a look at the setting you mentioned and its not currently set up to do the wifi syncing.  It says "to enable wifi syncing with itunes connect to itunes using a cable and click sync with this iphone over wifi"  Obviously since I want things much less automatic rather than more I won't be switching that feature on.

  • How do I remove an alias from the doc once I have removed the program from my Mac?

    I am having problems with Skype so have been advised to remove from my computer and re-install.  However, the Skype icon cannot be removed from the dock.

    From a Finder window select your Home folder   in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.dock.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac. Then try dragging the Skype icon off the Dock.

  • How do I clear the "Well this is embarising" screen? It will not let me run the program and I have deleated the program just to reload it and get same screen!

    The screen that says, "Well this is embarrassing" and asks to either remove a tab or start a new session, which I cannot do neither. I have deleted the program several times and when I reload it the same screen comes up and the program freezes. Task manager is the only way to remove it from my screen. I need to find the location of that screen and delete it.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Having a MBPr late 2013 and having a sound problem the sound does not come tom the headphones even its all the way up and when i remove the headphones it docent come out the internal speaker either ? any idea how i fix this?

    the sound do not come out the headphones sometimes altho its all the way up in the setting and when i remove the headphones the sound doesnt come from the internal speaker either and only a reboot fixes the problem and thats annoying! any idea how tto fix this?

    Hello. I've been able to play sound without problems through headphones or external speakers to date - the output always switched to these automatically until today. Now, sound output continues through internal speakers even if I plug in headphones or external speakers.
    - I tested the headphones and speakers on other devices: they work fine.
    - When I plug in headphones or speakers into the audio output port (I have verified that I'm not using the input jack) the devices are not detected and are not listed under the output tab in system preferences-sound.
    I concluded from this that I probably had a problem with the audio port, so to test that I tried the following. I plugged a powered multi-USB device with ports for microphone line-in and headphone line-out into the USB port and switched it on. I verified that it was working by plugging a USB stick into the multi-USB device - this was recognised successfully, so the device was clearly working. I then plugged in headphones and speakers into the audio line-out on the multi USB device - but still no sound came through them (and tey were not listed among output devices) and the Mac continued using internal speakers.
    What should I do? Does the latter test suggest that the problem does not lie with the audio port, or is my test not conclusive? What would you advise?
    Many thanks indeed!

  • Podcasts: how can I stop iTunes (the newest version) from displaying Podcasts in the list

    ... which are available but which I dont want to download, maybe because I already listened to them and deleted them?
    My Podcasts list is now like 100 pages long, scrolling down and checking which podcast is actually new takes me about an hour...
    Can I get the older iTunes version somewhere?
    Thank you in advance!

    Javier, thanks for your reply, I will upgrade to ACS 5.5. I have another unwanted https:\\ url display related post

  • How do I stop itunes from corrupting it's library on almost a daily basis?

    How do I stop itunes from corrupting it's library on almost a daily basis?  It's actually becoming infurating to use, and what's happening is I am losing my downloads since the last automated itunes backup (having to rename & replace the current corrupted library with the last backup which is usually a day or two old).  What can cause this?  Is there ANY alternative to using itunes for Apps (which is the sole use I have for it)?   If not, APPLE PLEASE REMOVE THE NEED FOR THE DATABASE SO IT DOESN'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO CORRUPT ITSELF...  :'(

    Things you see in iTunes are stored in various sub folders in your main iTunes folder as in:
    Image of folder structure and explanation of different iTunes versions (turingtest2 post) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13025536 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17457605
    Start iTunes and immediately hold down the option key.  Create a new library somewhere.  Go to your old iTunes folder and drag items to the window for the new library.  Maybe only grab a folder or part of one at a time.  It will copy these items to the new library (so you need lots of extra room on your computer).

  • 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.
