Why my ipod will switch on automatically when connected to pc through usb cable?

can anyone tell what i can do to stop my ipod from switching on automatically whenever it is connected to my pc through usb cable? .. thanks

What do you mean it swithes on. Thats because its charging.
Now if your talking about it opening itunes, thats fixable. Just let it open up itunes & go to ur device & scroll down on summary until you see a box to select saying "automatically open itunes when this device is connect" make sure the little box isnt checked.

  • Will E7 switch profile automatically when connecte...

    Hi,
    I have read the N8 manual to get some idea and can't find the answer to this question (I am thinking of buying an E7).  On my E75 I can have the phone automatically switch to the "Silent" profile when I connect to the Parrot MKi9100 bluetooth car kit in my car.  I do this by going through the menu:
       Settings >> General >> Enhancement >> Wireless car kit >> Default profile
    Can anyone who has an N8 or has access to an E7 tell me if it has the same functionality?
    Thanks,
    Al
    PS While we're on the subject, if anyone has an N8 with a Parrot MKi car kit, can they tell me whether switching to "Silent" profile disables message alerts being sent over A2DP and interrupting music playback? (this is the way my E75 works)

    In N8 it is Settings > Phone > Accessories > Wireless car kit as here:
    You may however be disappointed for A2DP as found N8 considerably less functionality than say 5800XM with which you could establish two Bluetooth pairings both as "hands free" and as "music player" which N8 can't.

  • Why my ipod sync whole music library when connected all the time ?

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    or maybe this:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Music plays automatically when connecting to car w/USB, and I don't want it to!

    I have an iPhone 4s.  I am using an app call RSS Radio to download and play a podcast to which I subscribe.  I use this frequently in the car, connecting to the car radio with USB.  My music player comes on automatically whenever I conncet the USB cord, and also when the podcast is stopped for any reason.  For example, when reaching the end of the podcast the music comes on.  When the phone rings, the music comes on, and I am unable to hear the caller.  This problem also happens when I am playing the Boggle app...as soon as I open the app, the music comes on.  I have to manually go into the music app and stop the song from playing, or re-start the podcast.  I don't see any settings that let me adjust anything.  Can anyone help me with a way to stop this music from coming on unless I actually go to it and play it intentionally?  Thanks!

    It's been about a year since I asked this question... I hope someone has an answer because it is such an annoying problem!  I have been reluctant to upgrade to iOS7, does anyone think this could solve my problem? 

  • Droid X won't charge when connected to computer through USB

    I have a Droid X device and when I connect it to most computers it won't charge. I have the setting set to "Charge Only" but still won't charge. I have only come accross two computers that will charge the phone. Is there something else that I need to do? Other settings? Please help!

    Are you using the charger that came with the phone?  Sometimes, the 'generic' USB chargers aren't able to keep up with the charging needs of the X. 
    Are you using an older computer?  I can't help but think that some older USB ports may not be strong enough...or even broken. 

  • Loud static when connected to car through aux cable?

    I've got my iPhone4 connected to my Mini Cooper through an aux cable and the static is unbearable. At first, it would hiss for 2-3 seconds before going away but now it's all the way through songs and super sensitive to touch (especially I touch the iPhone4 on the edges). This happening to anyone else?
    Didn't happen with my 3g or Nano. Bought the Belkin Cable in the Apple store a year or two ago. Wondering if a bumper (which I'm planning on buying anyway) will limit some of the interference that's possibly moving through the antennae and into the aux cable?
    Thoughts?

    hi - theres a griffin cable that worked for me.... specifically made for this issue - for some reason its worse with the ip4, I also have a mini and it drove me crazy until i got this.....

  • My iPod will not delete apps when I hold down the app. Why?

    My iPod will not delete apps when I hold down the app. Why?

    DELETING APPS
    Touch the app and hold your finger down until all the apps start to jiggle. You will see a circled "x" in the upper left corner. Tap it to delete an app. When done press the Home button.
    You cannot delete any pre-installed iOS app.
    If the app is in iTunes, then you delete the app in iTunes. If you then sync with your iPod the app will also be deleted from your iPod.

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

  • HT2999 why my ipod will not read a charger?

    why my ipod will not read a charger?

    not read a charger?
    Do you mean when you plug it in it doesn't charge? If so, check your charger and swap it out with another. If the issue persists iwth another charger then it's a problem with your device. take it into the local apple store and have them take a look at it.

    3rd gen iPod touch. I just get a blank screen (after a few secs of the apple symbol) when it is switched on or when connected for charging. I know the connections are OK. Suggestions/help please

    I took the iPod to the local Apple shop. The guy put the iPod onto a docking station and checked it - answer "connections are OK". I have used the link before but have not gone through all its suggestions (although picked on the most relevant ones). I may have to go back. Thanks again for your suggestions
