How to get iTunes to stop autodownloading videos?

I have several videos I have never downloaded to this PC. In iTunes I've marked all the movies and tv shows as watched. I've gone to preferences and unchecked "Automatically check for available downloads" and "automatically download prepurchased content." I've deleted all the downloads from my downloads queue when iTunes starts. Yet, every single time I open iTunes my 40+ videos start to auto download and I have to delete them all again. This is so frustrating I just want to clear this somehow. It's Windows 7 + iTunes 10.0.1.22 but this has been an issue for a while now. Please, how do I stop this? Thanks!

i believe your best will be to send an email to the iTS customer service using this form and ask the folks there to remove the item(s) from your download queue.

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives?

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives for files? I have a number of audio and video files located all over my computer. However, my music folder is located in one place. I only want ITunes to look there to ad music to my IPod? I don't want to add any videos to my IPod however, it automatically scans for this as well. Infact... I don't want ITunes to automatically scan for anything. Why is this doing this?

You can configure iTunes to sync only a subset of your music. Create a playlist in iTunes of the music you want on the iPod, and change the iPod sync settings. More info is here.

How do I get iTunes to stop asking me to sign in?

How do I get iTunes to stop asking me to sign in? I will never buy from iTunes so there is no point in me signing in. A year ago I bought a couple of albums off iTunes but I was sorely disappointed that I did not have the hard copy and album art in a physical form. That made me resolve to only buy music (or any content) in solid form and from the artist themselves if possible. And this is not to mention the proprietary format of iTunes music which basically makes every purchase a lease and not an ownership. So with that said, it is very annoying that iTunes on start-up asks me to sign in, not once, but TWICE. For such a little thing, you would think it would be infuriating. But alas, I'm very tired of being bullied and that is all it is to me. ITunes is a marketing BULLY. I'll stop now before I start in on all the explicatives I can think of for iTunes Store.
CAN ANYONE HELP?

Try this...
Sign into the iTunes store and View account.
Uncheck Ping (to turn it off).
Also, iTunes prefs > Store. Uncheck Automatic downloads
And this is not to mention the proprietary format of iTunes music
Good thing we don't mention it then because AAC is not proprietary.
which basically makes every purchase a lease and not an ownership.
You mean exactly like when you purchase music on a CD (or from any other online store or source)?
You do own the actual CD, but for the music, all you are purchasing is a license to use it (a lease) in accordance with that license.

Why do you believe iTunes is causing this to occur?
What is the exact wording of the message?
I'm running iTunes on Windows 7 and never gotten that message.

How do i get itunes to stop asking for my password repeatedly?

how do i get itunes to stop asking for my password repeatedly?

The solution (for me at least) is to keep trying the same password that I know is correct. For me, the fourth try of typing in the exact same password works in iTunes on my iMac. I have repeated this several times, and each time it works.
I also reset my password, but the same problem occurs in iTunes. I have to type in my password four times in iTunes to get it to work.
iTunes is having issues. I can log in easily on the first attempt every time to post on this message board and I can sign in easily on my iPad 2 to get app updates, but in iTunes on my iMac it takes four attempts and then it works.
Apple needs to release a statement to the public telling people abut this. For Apple to know that this iTunes problem exists and that it is causing literally thousands of people to be stressed out is callous and uncaring.

How do I get itunes to stop loading every few minutes on my computer? I X out of it and it comes r ight back.

How do I get itunes to stop loading every time I turn on my computer? I X out of it and it comes right back. I have tried everything, even had a computer expert try, no luck. I tried uninstalling itunes and tried a new download, it came right back. Very annoying. Help!

Hello all,
I am not in front of my computer but I will try to be clearer::
plug your iphone or iPad with the USB cable in the computer
it launches iTunes or you launch iTunes directly.
in the left colum , in the middle your equipemnt appears
click on it
the middle space will change and you will see horizontal tabs named home, ??, app, music, and so on
click on the first tab and check all the space:: at the end, if I remeber well there is a check mark for manual sync
or it is on the secon tab where you choose to sync mail accounts, notes etc... at the end the checkmark "manual sync" should be checked hence itunes will not sync by itself but only if you ask for it

How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect to the iTunes Store?

So my company decides to cut off my access to the iTunes Store. So I go in to Prefs and turn off all things iTunes Store related. I'm still getting a message saying it can't connect to the iTunes Store. How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect?

Disable itunes store in preferences.
It's also possible you have some podcast group trying to connect to iTunes if that's their source. Disable podcasts or at least set preferences to check for podcasts manually.

How can I get iTunes to stop downloading iTunes extras with movies?

How can I get Itunes to stop downloading the movie extras? We never watch them and they are wasting space on my harddrive. Each time I delete them, Itunes redownloads the extras.

Thx, and I agree.
I'm selecting that "my question has been answered" here - because the answer is NO. It's apparently not possible. Which is frakkin' ridiculous, and I'd love to be proven wrong. But that's how it appears to be.
What I ended up doing was first backing up all my data by downloading an app called DiskAid (free, Windows and OS X), and actually digging through my iPhone's folder system until I found the right Applications folder, and clicked through each subfolder until I found the Apps whose data I wanted to copy.
For anyone who ever needs to do that, the location is:
/user/Applications/[long string of numbers]/Documents
I was able to back up my apps on my home computer. So I still am not able to sync up any part of my phone at my work computer, without risking deleting these files. Basically I've minimized the possible damage by making backups.
Whatev. I'll live. : ) Beautiful phone. Just so irritating.

How do I get itunes to stop adjusting the volume

Hi
I am running iTunes 11.0.2.25 and am really annoyed at how iTunes keeps adjusting the volume on me during playback. I am not talking about the 'sound check' or 'sound enhancer' or any other option that I can see in iTunes. They are all set to 'off'. What I am talking about is while I play a song and turn up the volume, iTunes adjusts it down automatically. I can keep doing this until the volume level is at 100% and the volume barely increases - or increases or a moment and then quietens down again. If I move the volume control to say 25%, the volume becomes almost inaudible, but then iTunes gradually increases the volume automatically to a seemingly random level.
How do I get iTunes to leave the friggin volume alone? Or is this something that can't be controlled?
I have looked at adjusting the 'Volume Adjustment' in the 'Get Info' area of individual songs and the setting there makes no difference whatsoever. I am ready to give up entirely on this piece of flawed software if there is no answer to this problem.
Again, I have diabled the 'sound check' option in 'Preferences', so it is not that.
Does anyone know how to get iTunes to play the song as it was recorded digitally without changing it?
My gratitude in advance for a resolution.

Yes, you'll have to individually add each new song that you've downloaded.
When you add them to iTunes--you're just adding the file path to the location on your computer. When you move the file location, iTunes won't know where to look for it and will give you the infamous "!" symbol. Then you'll have to browse to the new location and tell iTunes where to find it.
How many new songs do you add at a time? If it's not many, it's probably easiest to just add them one file at a time.
To find the new songs, the file names should be good clues--they are fairly complete song titles on my computer.
And, you might want to do this each time you download a new song so you don't forget to add them!

Re How to get apple to stop blocking online wagering apps?

Would anyone have any suggestions for how to get apple to stop blocking online wagering apps in New Zealand? They block them with 'online wagering is illegal in NZ with a mobile device'. This is not true in relation to racing and many forms of online wagering. I have tried AppleCare and the person I dealt with eventually agreed with me but said he could not help. He suggested this forum as he believed postings were read by Apple. I have been able to access the sites via apps on Samsung pad no problems. Don't really want to ditch my iPad and iPhone though.

Apple's legal department would probably just ignore any such comments. I'd suggest the iTunes Store request page:

Again, you will not receive a reply.
Regards.
