Question
i know we already have topics about it, but i did not found my solution.
So i don't want to start iTunes, when i plug in iDevices. We have like 300 iPads, and i am using the configurator. iTunes still starting automatically, even when the Configurator is running.
I really don't want to turn off this settings under the iPad summary screen one by one. I have already turned off the autosync.
La solution
If the problem you're experiencing is that the iPad connections trigger a New iPad activation dialog, you can turn this off by typing this terminal command when iTunes is not running:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes StoreActivationMode -integer 1
You can turn on the new iPad Activation dialog with this command:
defaults delete com.apple.iTunes StoreActivationMode
Remember, iTunes cannot be running when either of these commands is run.
Autres conseils
Run this command in a terminal to disable that behavior:
defaults write com.apple.iTunesHelper ignore-devices 1
The only way I know to not have to set it for each & every device individually is to disable the iTunesHelper app from Users & Group control panel
