How do you turn off Auto-Sync without connecting  the ipod  to PC?

My Purchased Tracks was deleted off my computer, but I still have all of them on my ipod. I have iTunes 7, so I am aware I can transfer all my purchased music from my ipod to itunes. But I know auto-sync is set up, so when I connect it to my computer, won't it automatically sync itunes with my ipod and therefore delete my purchased music on my ipod? Can I turn off auto-sync without connecting my ipod?

A couple of ways...
Hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys when you plug in the iPod. (For a PC)
Or...
Connect your iPod, but before it starts to sync, click that little X on the right hand side of the ITunes display at the top of the page. (Next to the "Do Not Disconnect" message.)
Then click box at bottom that says manually manage music.

    How do you turn off auto complete in finder?

    A Google search turned up Stopping Autocomplete with "Go To Folder" Function and this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2601699?threadID=2601699  Knowledge Base has a few articles on "auto complete" pertaining to certain applications.  Didn't see any articles though about it for the Finder. 
    Yes you are correct.  I didn't know it was a "feature."  Thank you for pointing that out. 

  • HT4098 How do I turn off auto-renewing subscriptions on my iPod Touch 4th Generation? I have followed all the directions that have been suggested.

    How do I turn off auto-renewing subscriptions on my iPod Touch 4th Generation. I have followed all the suggestions, but my device does not follow those prescribed steps. Can somone please help me. I'm not very computer savy.

    If you go to yur account setting what do you see? The app subscription says:
    • Auto-renew may be turned off by going to your Account Settings after purchase and must be turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period.
    If that does not exist, and since eHarmony was not helpful, contact iTunes

    Tell them you contacted eHarmony

  • How do you turn off auto predict on wordpad?

    I have the Toshiba Portege M780 Touchscreen Tablet PC and no matter how many times i store my personalized handrwriting into the laptop, when i write specific words which are not in the english dictionary (eg european names etc) it auto corrects the word. It would be so much easier if i could just turn this function off, the only problem is i cant find a setting anywhere for this specifically. PLEASE HELP

    Hi Jerry,
    The windows i am using is Windows 7 Professional. The auto-correct page you sent me was not the problem i was talking about. I have taken some print screen shots of the actual problem i was talking about and i have numnbered from 1-4 so you can see exactly what is happening.

  • How do you turn off auto-reply/notify in iCal?

    I'm sure there's a simple answer to this because I've searched high and low and I just can't disable the auto-notify/auto-reply feature in iCal when I delete a meeting notice someone else invited me to.
    What's the process for turning off this great feature (tongue in cheek)? I'm stumped.
    JimN

    A great solution here:

    Install and it works a treat. You can either disable the auto-reply altogether, or have ical ask you first.
    Hope that helps!

  • How do you turn off larger dynamic type on the iphone4 when your screen orientation is locked (vertically)?

    So I have the iphone 4 with the latests update ios7.
    So I went on settings > general > accessibility > larger type.
    And I clicked "on" for "larger dynamic type"
    Now my font is so big I can't even see apps that I have and such
    I want to turn it "off" but my screen orientation is locked! (I can't move my phone horizontally) I think if I can move my phone horizontally I'll be able to see the on/off button for larger dynamic type.
    I tried sliding the bottom upwards to turn off screen lock orientation but it's not on my screen because my font is set to a really big size that the "screen orientation lock button" didn't make it to the screen

    Turning on Dynamic type and increasing it shold not have that effect.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Address book: how do you turn off auto-fill?

    Address book fills in with past info from existing cards in almost every field. This is surely the most unhelpful feature for a data base that typically has unique information in every field in every card. I cannot fathom how to turn it off. Help would be much appreciated.

    Sandy,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I know that this is of little consolation to you, but the Tiger version of Address Book no longer has that annoying interface.
    I know of no way to turn it off in Panther.
    ;~)

  • How can I turn off my iphone without using the power off button

    I dropped my Iphone 5s in water and now the screen won't allow me to slide it over to power off. There's some water in the screen and it's not working correctly.

    Press and hold the "Sleep/Wake" button located on the top of the iPhone.
    Hold the "Home" button on the front of the iPhone while continuing to hold the Sleep/Wake button.
    Release the buttons as soon as the iPhone's screen turns black to turn it off. Do not continue to hold the buttons or the device will reset.
    Hope it can help you.
    Merry Christmas!

  • How can we turn off auto-corre​ction in the forum search?

    This recent auto-correction in the forum search is driving me nuts. It is way too overzealous. There is no way to win the fight!
    Example:
    Try to search for "voight" (the famous lineshape).
    It seaches for "right" instead
    There is a small link to actually search for "voight" so we press that.
    So far so good.
    Now I want to limit searching for only my posts, so I enter "altenbach" on the left.
    Now the search term switches back to "right" .... grrrrr!!!!! (see video)
    Again, there is a small link to actually search for "voight" so we press that. (see video)
    Now we are back to #5, because the "by altenbach" has disappeared again. (see video)
    Repeat steps 5..8 forever. No escape to get what we actually want.
    In the video you see how the "by altenbach" disappears once we click on "search instead for voight".
