My phone has started playing music when it connects to Bluetooth in my car. How do I stop it?

With this last update, my iphone5 starts playing music every time it connects via Bluetooth in my car. I close the app but when I hang up from a call, the music starts again.  How do I turn this feature off?

The iphone starts playing music automatically when it connects to either of the car stereos via bluetooth and I don't want it to as it drains the phone battery. This is particularly annoying on the ford as the car stereo doesn't even support streaming music!
I don't want to lose the bluetooth connection as I need to make phone calls.
Does anyone know how to switch off the automatic start for the music without losing the bluetooth connection?

  • Why does my iPhone 4s start playing music when I connect to a bluetooth unit?

    I have recently bought a new 4s and have attempted to use it with my Automedia handsfree bluetooth unit in the car. The phone worked fine with my previous (Android) phone, but whenever I receive a call on the 4s it starts playing music through the bluetooth unit as well as the telephone conversation. This does not happen when I make a call. Any suggestions on how I can stop the music playing? (The phone wont let me swap to the music player to put the music on hold either.) Any help greatly appreciated as this is really annoying.

    I considered that too, but when I double clicked the home button to show what apps were running, there was nothing there. I just don't understand how anything would have opened because I hadn't touched my phone in several minutes.

  • My iphone starts playing music when I'm not even touching the phone

    My iphone 4 starts playing music when the phone is in my purse and I'm not touching it or even going through my purse. I've tried making sure the ipod is not set to a song but rather to a menu screen when I close it. Sometimes I haven't even used the ipod recently. My phone also calls people when I'm not touching it. Does anyone else have this problem? It must be something I'm doing but I can't figure out what it could be. I'd appreciate any help!

    Mine plays music when I have the iPhone 4 in my pocket and bend over a little, I know that kinda 'scrunches' the phone slightly but no other iPhone I've had ever did this and I've treated them all the same. I'll be walking along, pick up something and then the music starts playing. I don't touch anything, never attach headphones, basically the phone is asleep but somehow something triggers the music to start playing. I've entered this as a separate thread but no one seems to know why this happens. I suppose I could take the phone back and exchange it for a new one, but it would be better to know what is causing this.

  • I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

    I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

    I haven't tried it yet, but I believe this would disconnect Bluetooth for both the phone and music. I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata if this will help.

  • 8330 starts playing music when disconnect​ed from MS Sync

    I put a bunch of MP3s on a micro card and installed it in my Curve 8330 yesterday, now every time I get out of my car (Lincoln MKS) the phone starts playing one of the MP3s over the phone's speaker.  This happens no matter what I was using the phone for (if anything) when I turn the car off.

    Do you have any Bluetooth options in the car?

  • Why does my Ipod start playing music when I set it on the Speaker dock?

    Everytime I set it on the speaker dock it starts playing the same song without pushing any buttons, even when I just want to charge the Ipod.

    Are you using the remote that came with the Apple TV? If so, on the Mac open System Prefs > Security and Privacy and click the "advanced" button. Select the option to "disable remote control infrared receiver" and click OK and close Sys Prefs.

  • 4s starts playing music when I dock it

    I don't want it to do this, but every time I put it in the dock on my clock radio, it just begins playing random music. Is there a way to stop this?

    That's a function of the device you're docking with, not the phone. The phone is only doing what it's instructed to do.
    Check the manual for your clock radio.

  • How do I configure my bluetooth on my iPod Touch 4G to automatically play music when connected and to connect as media not a phone?

    Is there any way to have my iPod Touch automatically start playing music when it connects to my car stereo via Bluetooth?
    Also, I would like the option to connect to my car stereo as media only and not as a phone. My car stereo supports the ability to connect to a phone via Bluetooth simultaneously with another device such as my iPod Touch as a media source. The problem is that if my iPod Touch connects first it will force out my phone from connecting via Bluetooth since it connects as a phone as well as media. I have been able to make this whole setup work by turning both my phone's Bluetooth off and my iPod Touch's Bluetooth off. Then turning my phone's Bluetooth on first and allowing it to connect. Then changing the Bluetooth option on my phone to only connect as phone. Then turning my iPod Touch's Bluetooth on and that works just fine. Both devices respond perfectly but for that to work I have to do that process everytime I get into my car. Is there anyway to set this up so I don't have to go through all of this hassle?
    Btw my iPod Touch has been updated to version 4.3.5.
    Any suggestion, comments, or concerns would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Jon

    If you store itunes andn iphoto library on the TC you could be in trouble. The TC has no auto backup mechanism.. it is simply unable to work as a true NAS. It has no media servers. It is slow.. it is very easy to corrupt libraries especially in connection over wireless. In general we recommend people do not do this.
    If you go ahead anyway.. apple have specific instructions for moving the libraries.. do follow it.
    I am not sure if the SONOS can play directly from itunes library or has to use an itunes server.. remember the TC is a dumb as a board router with no media servers. Apple TV also need an active itunes to work AFAIK.. you cannot play files.. unless you JB the ATV.
    Also be careful as SONOS does not like apple names.. use all SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
    Finally yes,.. at last .. you can extend the wireless in the TC using another apple router.. you cannot extend wireless using any other brand.

  • My ipad starts playing music after opening case

    iTunes start playing music every time I open case lid. It is annoying and unprofessional. How to fix this bug?

    Yes.  That happens.   Turn the keyboard off.  If that does not seem to do it, turn Bluetooth off.
    There are a fair number of reports from folks where the pad starts playing music at the wrong time.  Like on the subway, or in a meeting.  And it is always tied to a bt keyboard paired with the pad. 
    It is a 'feature' that starts playing music when almost any key is touched.   So turn it off.     
    Question, if you have the music app turned fully off ( double tap the home button to see the task bar, touch the music icon until it jiggles, then kill it fully by touching the minus sign), does it still happen?

  • Why does my itunes turn on by itself and start playing music without me clicking on itunes or without hitting play on the keyboard?

    My itunes will automatically start playing music when im on the computer away from the computer or across the house.  I am not accidently hitting play on the keyboard or anything.  I even quit itunes to close it completly down and still will open back up and start playing music on its own.  i need some help on resolving this issue as it is annoying me to death! lol

    Open Finder> click Go> hold Option and you'll see Library, then browse to the iTunes and iTunes Plug-ins folders.
    To get to the other folder click Go > Computer > Macintosh HD > then browse to the iTunes and iTunes Plug-ins folders.
    Close iTunes and try moving add-ons not manufactured by Apple temporarily to the Desktop to troubleshoot the behavior. iTunes stores these plug-ins and scripts in the following locations:
    Mac:
    /Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
    /Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/

  • When hangup in bluetooth mode my iphone 5 starts playing music

    my i phone5 starts playing music over the bluetooth when i hang up my phone I reseted many times and it did not help!
    It started when i upgraded to IOS 7

    Hello there, MrSheffer.
    It sounds like you may have an application running in the background that plays music. The following Knowledge Base article offers up a great explanation on how to force close applications running in the background on your iOS device:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    When performing Step 2, I would recommend closing all open apps. If restarting doesn't help with Step 3, try the recommended resetting as well:
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • IPhone starts playing music automatically when connecting to bluetooth

    I'm having an issue where my iPhone 4S (iOS 6.0.1) starts playing music/podcasts as soon as it connects to the bluetooth audio in my car, even when neither the music app nor the podcasts app is open at all. This is extremely annoying because every time I get in my car it starts regardless if I want to listen to anything or not, and I'm forced to take my phone out and shut it off every time. At first, I thought it was a glitch with the podcasts app, so I deleted it, but it's still doing it through the music app. The weird thing is, while it's playing, if I open the music app, the "Now Playing" button doesn't appear. But if I double click the home button in the lock screen, or go to the music controls by double clicking on the home screen, it does show what's playing. I have no idea how to make this stop short of shutting off bluetooth, but I don't want to do this in case I want to use the phone itself while driving. Please Apple, fix this soon!
