Sync with iPhone will not stop

I can not get the sync feature to stop with a sync in Finder. When I de-select the Auto Sync option I can not get finder to retain this selection.

The Apply button is not highlighted.

If I disconnect the phone I can get Finder to stop the sync. But once I re-connect my phone, Finder begins to sync again.

Finder will not retain the options selections I make.


Is there a way to FORCE finder option selections? If I can disable the Auto Sync and sync manually?

I have the Music App Open. The only things available on the "Top Right" are "Play next & History" "Song Lyrics" and selections for systems, such as my computer.

I see nothing under Music in "Preferences" that mention auto sync.

Went to Music in Finder and de-selected the Sync. Looks like I will have to re-load all my music. Still unable to press the Apply button.

So, my phone still jumps right into sync and I will wait to see if anything changes. (previously taking forever on Photos. Pressing Skip Photos seems to be un-responsive.
