  • Windows 7 x64 - iTunes no longer auto launches when I connect iPhone

    Hi
    Ok so i installed Windows 7 x64 and iTunes x64 but now iTunes no longer auto-launches when I connect my iPhone. My PC has no problems finding my iPhone, it does the camera bit and if I start iTunes manually it syncs the iPhone with no issues.
    Does anyone know how I can get iTunes to auto launch again please?

    +it does the camera bit+
    I dont' think it's supposed to be doing this.
    Maybe mindspan's post here will help you

  • ITunes 9.1 not auto opening when iPhone connected

    Prior to upgrading to iTunes 9.1, iTunes used to open automatically when I connected my iPhone to my Windows XP SP3 PC via USB. This was useful for simply plugging in my phone and walking away and having it done backing up and syncing when I came back.
    Now it's not opening iTunes automatically, at least not unless I killed the iTunesHelper.exe task and restart it. The iTunesHelper.exe task is supposed to start iTunes.exe when the iPhone is connected, but it appears that iTunesHelper.exe simply stops working periodically and I need to kill it and restart it to get it to recognize when I connect the iPhone.
    Anyone else notice this problem?

    No one else sees this?
    I think it has to do with Hibernating my laptop since the problem seems to start happening after I do that. It works fine if I go into Standby and resume, but I hibernate my machine every night and the next day I have to kill iTunesHelper.exe and restart it to get iTunes to automatically launch.

  • Help, iTunes refuses to not auto launch when iPhone connected to computer

    Hi, anyone else have this obnoxious problem? I unchecked "auto syncing" and all of the possible disabling options in iTunes>Preferences. Another forum I visted mentioned disabling iTunes Helper. I am having a problem launching iTunes Helper because I did a search from the main Windows Start area (lower left of computer screen), and iTunes Helper does show up with a .exe extension showing it's an application. However, when I click on it, it just disappears. It's also not listed in "My Programs" or when I run "msconfig". Is finding iTunes Helper so I can disable it what I need here to keep iTunes from auto launching when the iPhone is connected, or is my solution in doing something else? I'm using iTunes 9.0.25 Any solid help here is much appreciated!

    I don't have an iPhone but I imagine it is probably similar to using an iPod. When I connect the iPod to the computer and it shows up in iTunes under devices, click on the device (iPhone), in the device screen that appears there is an options section that has a check-box "Open iTunes when this iPod is connected." Un-check it.

  • I have music on my iphone, but Itunes says 'Music - zero items' when iphone connected. How do i manage my songs?

    Background info: I have music on my iphone that i would like to change / delete / update manually. Software versions of both itunes and iphone are up to date.
    So, in chronological order:
    When i connect my iphone to my PC, itunes detects it. Fine. No problem.
    I click on the 'on this iphone' tab (where I would expect to see the music i know to have on my iphone)... It says 'Music - zero items'. Hmmmm - i know i have over 1 GB of music on there...
    I click on the summary tab for my iphone. 'Manually manage music and videos' is checked. The status bar at the bottom shows i have over 1 GB of 'other' information on my iphone, but no music.
    Basically what i'm after is being able to delete and add music from my itunes to my iphone as i see fit. At present i am unable due to the reasons outlined above. Tried contacting Apple direct but providing me with only 140 characters to describe the problem to them is.. well... pretty w@nk.
    Any help appreciated- have been scouring the discussion boards but cannot find anything that correlates directly.
    Thanks in advance

  • Can iTunes open and not iPhoto when iPhone connected?

    When I connect my iPhone 5 to my iMac, iPhoto opens and I have to manually open iTunes. Is it possible to have iTunes open automatically and not iPhoto when I connect the iPhone?

    Go to preferences of each program and set it up however you like.

  • Itunes no longer opening automatically when iphone connected

    iTunes sees the iphone if I launch iTunesbut it no longer opens automatically.
    could it be a preferences file problem?

    Hmm if click the Apple >> system preferences >> users and groups >> login items, do you have itunes helper listed?
    You can also try this:
    Open in Image Capture in /Applications with your iphone connected.  In the lower left, you'll see "connecting this iphone opens with" (if you don't see it, click the triangle/box icon to show it).  Click the menu >> select "Other" and navigate to itunes and choose that.  Quit Image Capture.
    Test.

  • Itunes won't auto launch when iPhone 3gs is conncected

    Hi there. My itunes on my MacBook Pro was working fine - it can sync and launch when my iPhones 3gs connected to it. But, it doesn't after I updated the iTunes to version 9.2.
    It doesn't detect my iPhone or iPod when it's connect to my MacBook Pro. (despite of unlimited reinstalling my os x and reinstalling of my iTunes. It's only I did a proper uninstall my iTunes (following the apple's instruction), then it could detect my iPhone.
    Now, it doesn't auto launch whenever I've connected my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. In iTunes' Preference, the option on 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically is "unchecked'. Why???

    when your iPhone is connected, go to the summary tab. there should be this option

  • How to turn off iTunes auto-start when iPhone connected?

    The option "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" is disabled (grayed out) in iTunes 10. The grayed-out check box is unchecked, yet iTunes starts every time I plug in my iPhone 3G. I would like to be able to plug in my phone without iTunes starting. Is there a way?

    Right. Un-checking the preference to prevent auto-sync re-enabled the auto-start option. Then I was able to check and un-check the auto-start option and re-check the prevent auto-sync preference. Now all seems well. Despite appearances (the un-checked option), the internal setting was in the wrong state and twiddling it seems to have set things right.
    What a boneheaded user interface, where items on widely separated parts of the UI affect each other invisibly.

  • Disable Auto-Open when iPhone connected?

    I can't seem to make iTunes stop opening when my iPhone is connected, and it's driving me nuts....
    Anyone know where to find that?

    Found it!
    It's the "Auto-sync checkbox" in iTunes...the wording wasn't what I expected, as I'd like my iPhone to auto-sync, but NOT throw iTunes on my desktop...oh well, it's off now. Thanks!

  • My itunes wont auto sync my iphone 4 after i connect it to itunes. But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day.

    But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day and i was forced to use back a backup which i did in my old laptop 4 months ago. do i have to reinstall the itunes? will my backups be corrupted after i sync again? pls guide.
    P.S/ its the latest version of the itunes whenever i did the backups.

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup? 

  • I was updating the software on my iphone4. I got a message saying that it could not update. Now my iphone will not reboot. It only shows a pic to connect to itunes, but nothing is happening when i connect it.

    I was updating the software on my iphone4. I got a message saying that it could not update. Now my iphone will not reboot. It only shows a pic to connect to itunes, but nothing is happening when i connect it. How do I fix this?

    If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
    I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.
