iTunes keeps opening itself

Thanks Manishearth.

This worked for me.

iphone 3gs / itunes10.5 / iOS 5.

It's because you have wifi sinc on something. When the iPhone/iPod/iPad is connected simply uncheck the "turn on iTunes when iPhone/iPod/iPad is connected" and it should stop opening.

thank you. that was my issue. I havn't noticed that option.

This worked GREAT for me! Thanks for the step-by-step! You Rock.

I ejected my iPhone in iTunes and that fixed it. I think it is that open iTunes when this device is connected setting. I could probably uncheck that too. Regardless, this worked for me.

Ohmygod, thankyou so much for your help! I was so creeped out >.< I tried re-setting my earphones and it totally worked ^-^ Thanks for the advice 🙂

I have Logitech G15 keybaord, i unchecked Logitech Media Display and after reboot itunes works fine. Thanks for sharing this solution.

Thank you TrevelXP! This worked perfectly for me.

Thanks,

Chris

Had my ipad a few days now. The constant reopening of itunes was irritating, my fix was to log out of the itune store. no more auto opening.

I had this problem on Mac OS X 10.8.2 and iTunes 11.0.1.

I was able to fix it by opening Activity Monitor and then force quitting the AppleMobileDeviceHelper.

I read your post and turns out that is what is causing my problem as well. Have you been in contact with Apple? Have they offered a solution?

Thanks.

I simply deleted all files from the iTunes folder as mentioned above (not the folders of backups). iTunes now behaves as it should

i had his problem too but i use rainmeter with itunes so i just restarted that and i worked

Download the free program MALWAREBYTES and run a scan. I did and it found two items that I immediately had it remove (all very easy and straightforward). It cured my renegade itunes problem.
