I don't want iTunes to launch when I connect iPhone. How do I stop this?

There's a way to rename a file somewhere to prevent either iTunes or iPhoto from launching and mounting iPhone when it is connected. I read about this when I was having a problem one time. I have searched "disable automount itunes" (and other variations) and now I can't find it. Can anybody point me to the thread about this?
I like iPhoto to launch and mount, but I only use iTunes to upgrade the iOS. I would like iPhoto to automount and iTunes to be voluntary (i.e., clicking on the iTunes dock icon, etc.) I don't want to have to unmount iPhone from iTunes and close iTunes every time I simply want to download photos.
Thank you.

With a Mac, you need to remove the iTunes Helper from the login items for your computer's login account.
System Preferences > Accounts. Select your login account. Under the Login Items tab for your computer login account, select iTunes Helper followed by selecting the - sign to remove iTunes Helper from your login items.
There is also a way to prevent iPhoto from launching automatically when your iPhone or any digital camera is connected. iPhoto will launch automatically when your iPhone is connected when it includes photos and/or video in your iPhone's Camera Roll only.

Mail receives mail automatically when I open it. How do you stop this?

I have set up my Mail to "Check for new mail manually" in preferences. However it checks for mail when I start the program. I'd rather it not and make it a totally manual process.
Is there any way to stop it?. Thanks!

Are you sure the account is checked for new mail?
A .Mac type account is really an IMAP type account so any mailboxes stored on the server (under the .Mac account icon in the mailboxes drawer) are automatically synchronized with the server when first launching Mail and connected to the internet if the account is enabled under the Advanced tab for the account preferences.
I have 3 POP type accounts, a .Mac account and 2 IMAP type accounts. As a test, I deselected "Include when automatically checking for new mail" for all accounts and then quit and re-launched Mail. None of my accounts checked the incoming mail server for new mail but all server stored mailboxes for my .Mac account were synchronized with the server.

If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences/Security/General)
If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computer AND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

I have downloaded a CD from the itunes store but it seems to keep downloading. how do i stop this and get a refund for the unwanted CD's

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp on apple tv but sound stops when tv is switched off how can I stop this?

I want to listen to itunes through my 5.1 amp thru apple tv but the sound stops when when my television is switched off how can I stop this?
All I want to be on is my PC and my amp connected thru ATV via optical linkl

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes there have been a number of reports posted about this, it seems different people experience different results here with some finding the same as you, some finding that it won't work at all with the TV turned off and some finding that if music is sent from iTunes on the mac/pc that as long as the TV is on when the stream starts, the TV can be turned off afterwards.
My assumption here is that it depends on the TV itself, although that probably doesn't help all that much.

When I open iTunes or even change a preference, iTunes scans through all of my apps. How can I stop this?

To get straight to the point, whenever I open iTunes or close a pop-up from iTunes, it starts scanning through my collection of applications. This has slowly got on my patient nerve. It wasn't always this was. Before I transfered all my data from my Mac to Pc, it worked fine. So I am wondering what is it doing, and how can I stop this. Bare in mind I have alot of apps. Thanks in advance for the help!
Sincerely,
Tarellano

You can only use the German iTunes/App store if you are located in Germany. The German store is in the German language.

I keep getting the iTunes help screen in German Language on restart, how do I stop this?

Ugraded to iTunes 10.5 and now on restart I keep getting the iTunes help screen in German Language how do I stop this?

Hi Thanks,
I could only see posts from some months ago and thought I had something different.
Looks like I have not been using the correct search terms.
Will wait and see what happens.

Ipad/Iphone camera switches photos when they are taken. How do I stop this?

When photos are being taken, at first they look fine. When clicked to take the photo it flips it and it looks different. How do I stop this?

You don't stop that. The image you see in the front facing camera is a mirror image of reality. This is done because everyone is familiar with looking at themselves in a mirror. When you take the picture the image is converted to what the camera (and other people) see. Hold some text up to the front camera to see what I mean.
If, for some reason, you want a mirror image then there are photo editing Apps which will flip the image left to right. For example, see Photo Editor.

My itunes library opens by itself every 10 minutes, how can I stop this?

Several days ago my itunes library started opening on top of whatever I was doing without any prompting from me. It initially started this while I was playing a game on my pc, now it does it all the time regardless of what I am doing. What is causing this action and how can I stop it?

Does is completely restart or just go into sleepmode? If sleepmode: go to Settings - General - autolock and change that setting.
If it just restarts:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
2. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck

I am asked repeatedly if I want to shut down my computer when I do not. How can I stop this from happening?

I am asked over and over again if I want to shut down my computer now. No matter how many times I click "cancel" the box returns with the same maddening question. I'm using Lion on a Mac Pro. How can I get this to stop?

Perhaps the problem is that your Security setting is set to log you out immediately that your Sleep mode activates. And maybe your sleep setting is quite frequent.
Otherwise you may have set a shutdown timing in Energy Saver>Schedule that keeps repeating when you cancel the Shut Down window.
I haven't tried these yet and they are rather obscure, but they may be the software problems to check before servicing your hardware (keys and power button).

Whenever my printer (C3180) is turned on it automatically prints a test page. How do you stop this?

The printer will print a test page every time I turn it on. Is there any way to stop this from happening? Why is it doing this?

The page is an alignment page, it will print until the alignment completes properly. See here for information on how to complete the alignment.
