How to Disable Auto BT Connect with iPhone (iPod) to Ford Sync

One of the great combined features of my iPhone 3GS and my Ford's Sync system is that if I have Bluetooth enabled, I can step into my car, the iPhone and Sync connect, and it automatically starts streaming music over Bluetooth from the iPhone's iPod app via Sync to the vehicle's audio system. Uses a LOT of power, and if I don't select a playlist, it will just start playing anything and everything in my library in no particular order. Generally speaking, it is very cool and works flawlessly.
The problem is, on those days when I do NOT want to play music from the iPhone, or drain the iPhone's battery too quickly when I'm out on the road, it doesn't matter. It still tries to connect, I have to manually go into the iPod functionality of the iPhone, and pause the playback, evidently there's no way to just the iPod app/functionality off temporarily. Then I forget, leave the car, come back, and have to do the same thing. Sometimes, I completely forget about this, but the iPhone doesn't. Even if Sync is turned off, the iPhone will continue playing, streaming to nothing, and unnecessarily running the battery down.
I need to keep Bluetooth on so that I can make handsfree calls when traveling. Sync doesn’t seem to have a feature or function that would allow me to connect when I want to, versus this standard "automatic" connection. I’ve tried switching Sync sources, etc. , doesn’t matter, when the iPhone senses a Bluetooth connection, it just wants to play music via the iPod app. And there doesn’t seem to be any setting for iPod or Bluetooth on the iPhone that will fix this situation as well.
Anyone have any ideas here? Very much appreciated in advance, thanks.

I, too, hate this. Another thread said to switch audio source to line-in, but I haven't verified if it works.

Anyone noted Bluetooth connection issues with iPhone 4s and Ford sync?

My wifes iPhone 4 with IOS 5.0.1 auto connects to Ford Sync at least 75% of the time on first attempt. My new iPhone 4S with IOS 5.0.1 takes 4-5 attempts and rarely if ever connects without multiple attempts. Any one else seeing issues with failed Bluetooth connections with iPhone 4S phones?

Look at the right panel for links to other threads concerning problems with Fords. And it's not just Fords, cars in general. No solutions seem to be given.

How can I get internet connectivity with my iPod Touch cabled to my PC?

Most devices "tether" to a computer (PC or iMac) for internet connection. I cannot find any reference in the user manual on getting internet access from the connected PC to the "tethered" ipod touch. How can I accomplish this?

Hi,
The iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS support Internet tethering over a USB cable, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3574.
The iPod touch can connect over a Wi-Fi network, as mentioned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2031.
If your PC has a wireless card, you may be able to create an Ad-Hoc Wi-Fi network that can share the Internet access to the iPod touch.
You can also get a wireless router, like an Airport base station http://www.apple.com/wifi/.

How to disable auto charge of iPhone via PC?

How to disable auto charge of iPhone via PC?

I'm thinking you may have the concern of not overcharging or messing with charge cycles of your phone, but according to apple the Li-ion batteries in iDevices work this way for example
-Your phone has 50% battery left, you charge it
-after using again, you're back with 50 and charging it till full once again makes it 1 charge cycle
Doesn't work like nickel batteries.
Here's the article:

Yes, you can do it the same as any other database. The code would be similar.
I'd also suggest you not to use the JDBC ODBC bridge for connection. There are other drivers available for that.

How can I establish bluetooth connection with my iPhone so I can share and modify my iPhone's contact list on my macbook?

How can I establish bluetooth connection with my iPhone so I can share and modify my iPhone's contact list on my macbook?

The Mac and iPhone sync with iTunes though the charge cable that is included with the iPhone. Through this, you can sync your calendars and contacts.
Bluetooth is an impractical sync scheme as the time it would take to say transfer your song catalog could be longer than your phone contract. I suppose it is entirely possible to implement with hacks and jailbreaking, but I am fairly sure it is beyond the rules here to discuss such activities.
You may wan tto ask this same question in the iPhone section of the comminitie here. There may be some workarounds for just contacts.

How to disable auto clear feature in a text box in IE10

How to disable auto clear button in Text box in IE10
Hi Team,
I saw this question on Microsoft forum but I did not find any reply to this question, therefore, I am re-posting it.
When I run web interface application on IE10, i see there is a new feature which has 'X' at the end of text box and on clicking it it clears the text.
Are there any settings of IE10 that can be changed to disable it or some code snippet?
I find the 'X' sign at the end of text box very annoying and would like to turn it off and make it compatible with older versions of IE and other explorers.
Looking forward to your answer at the earliest.
Regards
Sakshi

How to Disable "Auto Align" in [System Pref.] - [Display] - [Arrangement]

Does anyone know How to Disable "Auto Align" in [System Preferences] -> [Display] -> [Arrangement]?
It always want to align the two screens from the top when they are lined up close together and I need them to be aligned from the bottom. Since the resolution heights are so close together (1080 & 1050) it does not allow one to align side by side from the bottom as it prioritizes top alignment.
I guess I'm looking for a script to disable this feature.

Anyone got any ideas?

Hi Diana,
Does your PC have software for a Logitech QuickCam/Webcam, Lexmark scanners, or a built-in media card reader?
If it does try uninstalling the software from Control Panel, then testing and downloading the latest software/drivers available, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
