Please help me stop itunes from reacting when i plug in my iphone

i have my iphone dock connected to my macbook that i work on during the day, i am really getting annoyed by itunes dancing around either to the front or simply waking from a minimised state (where i want it to stay) every time i end a call and replace the phone to the dock.
i have checked "disable automatic sync"
my phone is set to manually sync
i have even turned off itunes helper in the log in menu.
again itunes is running... but minimised on the dock, so syncing is not the issue, im happy it syncs, i just want it to STAY where i left it and not assume that the moment i plug i must also want to stop editing that doc and go straight to itunes to do something...
thank you
max

nobody?

  • How do I stop iPhoto from opening when i plug in my iPhone?

    How do I stop Iphoto from opening when I plug in my Iphone?

    Having the preference in iPhoto makes perfect sense to me.  After all, iPhoto is the application that opens.  You would expect that is where you should provide some guidance not to open.
    What puzzles me much more is why you would post this comment more than 18 months after wjosten answered the original question.

  • ITunes 8 - Win: STOP iTunes from launching when I connect iPhone???

    Hello,
    I have searched around a lot and have seen various responses to this question, but cannot seem to find a definitive way to stop iTunes from launching every time I connect my iPhone 3G.
    If this is possible, can someone please provide specific instructions on how to do this?
    Windows Vista - iPhone 3G - iTunes 8
    Thank you!

    Google is your friend, Chad.
    Found this link: http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?p=513358 with some info excerpted below.
    "+However, there is a workaround solution:+
    +Allowing auto-syncing for all devices in Preferences, and then turning automatic syncing off for the device in Summary, corrects the problem and prevents iTunes from auto-launching when the device is connected.+"
    It may be Mac specific, but maybe not. Try it out. If not, continue to Google for "Disable iTunes Auto Launch (or auto start).
    Best of Luck

    Did you change the ID you are using for iCoud?  If so, did you delete the account, then sign back in with your new ID on your device?

  • I upgraded itunes since a pop up stated that I would have to upgrade it so it can recognize my iphone5's new software. I upgraded the itunes and now when I plug in the iphone its asking "set up as new iphone" will this delete everything on my phone?

    I upgraded itunes since a pop up stated that I would have to upgrade it so it can recognize my iphone5's new software. I upgraded the itunes and now when I plug in the iphone its asking "set up as new iphone" will this delete everything on my phone? Also why is it forcing me to set up as a new iphone, why doesn't it recognize it like it did before I upgraded iTunes. I'm afaid I will lose all my apps, music, pictures etc. please help. thank you.

    You are correct. Corrupted files are in the backup. If you've already restored the iPhone it has been erased and starting over is the way to go in order to eliminate the corrupted files.
    Hope that helps

  • How do I stop photos from launching when I plug in camera

    Can't find anything in the preferences that will stop this new app from launching when I plug in cameras or phones.

    Plug in and let it load, then click on the camera/phone on the left hand pane and uncheck the box:
    You should also be able to do this via Image Capture (in the Applications Folder) but I haven't tested it specifically.

  • How can I stop iTunes from launching when I hit the button on my head phones

    On my MBP I have some head phones that have an inline mic with call answer button. The button on the head phones is fairly sensitive and I tend to bump it on accident often. When I hit the button iTunes is launched or if I have it open it starts music.
    Is there anyway to stop this from happening? This is driving me crazy!

    This problem has been an issue for a number of months and has led to frustration and public humiliation on countless occasions.
    When disconnecting from my Bose Soundlink at home (playing nothing) in order to taking my laptop on the run I open my laptop to find that the entire contents of my iTunes playlist is being belted in public. The subway, the library, my classroom is not the time or place for my laptop to make the decision to begin playing my music without permission. When at home and my Soundlink goes on standby I have nearly had a heart attack when my laptop spontaneously begins blaring my music when I wasn't even touching the thing.
    I love my Soundlink and I love my Mac but together the devices are causing no end of aggravation with no fix in sight. With each OS update I hope the problem is addressed but to no avail, it is getting tiresome that such a flaw isn't being fixed in a timely manner.

  • How to stop iTunes from launching when iPhone is connected?

    I have the "Disable automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods" checked in my Windows version if iTunes. But when I try to charge my iPhone, it still comes up. Is there any way to disable this. Windows also detects a camera device. I do all my iPhone stuff at home on my Mac, but at work I have a PC and I want to be able to charge my phone using the USB cable. But I don't want iTunes to launch or the PC to detect the camera device. Any ideas or suggestions?
    Thanks

    SteveFLHTCI:
    Here's what I did using Windows Vista Home Premium. First, when I connected my iPhone, an AutoPlay dialog box popped up asking me what I wanted to do. Towards the bottom, there was some blue text that stated "Set AutoPlay defaults in Control Panel" and I clicked on it. When the Control Panel AutoPlay applet opened up, I scrolled down towards the bottom and found a list of devices which included "Apple iPhone." From there, I selected "Take No Action" from the drop-down list and have lived happily ever after.
    Hope that helped. Good luck.

  • How do I stop iTunes from syncing my gmail emails to my iPhone 4S?

    I tried deselecting my gmails from the list from the "Info" tab in iTunes, hit the "Apply" button and after a while the gmails on the list are selected and greyed out. The gmails show up in my iPhone 4S running the latest software. Any way to stop this from happening?

    on the iPhone select Preferences > Mail,Contacts, Calender.
    Remove your gmail account from the accounts list. This will stop it appearing on the phone but not affect anything else

  • ITunes does not react when I plug in my iPhone 4s?

    When I plug my iPhone 4s into my laptop using Windows 7, the phone itself vibrates but iTunes does not react. I have no idea how to add the device to it and have spent hours trying to resolve it. I have also followed an online 7 step and had no effect. Does anyone know what else I have to do?

  • Stop WMP10 from starting when I plug in Zen Visio

    When I plug in my Zen Vision M, Windows Media Player 0 starts up and starts synchronizing. I want a totally different program to come up -- or NO PROGRAM AT ALL!?I can't find a way to do this with the zen. I went into WMP settings and said don't synchronize. It ignores me. I tried going to windows explorer and changing device properties, but that tab is not available.

    OK, under Windows Media Player, SYNC SETTINGS, I found a menu that allows me to change syncing from automatic to manual. So now the syncing doesn't occur when I plug in the device. But Windows Media Player 0 STILL opens, and I don't want it to. I'd rather have nothing open, or else a program of my choosing. Just to be clear, here's a copy of my post at experts exchange:?*****When I plug in my Zen Vision M, Windows Media Player 0 opens. (For technical reasons I need to use WMP version 0, NOT or beyond.)
    I want a totally different program to come up -- or NO PROGRAM AT ALL! -- when I plug in the zen player.
    I can't find a way to do this with the zen. ?I went into WMP settings and said don't synchronize, which worked. ?But when I go into the device properties, there's no menu for choosing which program opens with the device. You don't get the usual menus under windows explorer. ?
    In fact, the only way I can get to a device properties menu at all is to plug in the device, and then go to Zen Media Explorer (which is a shortcut / device under Windows Explorer). The device appears there as a sub-folder, and has a properties menu. But again, this menu doesn't allow for choosing which programs run when the device is plugged in.
    I found a check box that said "show zen in windows explorer as portable device". I checked this and restarted explorer. But all the menus / choices for this are the same as for the above "Zen Media Explorer"
    Likewise I looked under Dev Mgr properties -- there's a properties menu, but no where to choose which program runs when device is plugged in.

  • How can I stop itunes from starting when I turn on the computer?

    I'm sure I've done it before but I've just reinstalled itunes and it starts evey time I turn on the computer. I have searched all the menus and haven't found an option to turn this off.
    Can anyone help please?

    Go to Start>All Programs and look in Startup. iF iTunes appears there, remove it.
    If iTunes is not in startup, do you have any iTunes widgets? If you don't know what they are you probably don't have any.
    Some iTunes Widgets can be configured to start when you start your computer and that could cause iTunes to appear.

  • How can I stop iTunes from launching when I disconnect my Bluetooth device?

    This has only become a problem recently. Whenever I disconnect -- not connect, disconnect -- my Bluetooth Bose SoundLink Mini speaker from my MacBook Pro iTunes will auto-launch. I am current with Mavericks and iTunes updates. There must be a configuration switch that can be tweaked to prevent this from occurring.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there anyone who is a MacBook Pro "expert" who understands what the interactions are between the Bluetooth driver and app software and iTunes, and can speak with authority on what might be going on here?
