Why does it keep synching a whole load of bloody music to my phone that I don't want on it? I choose to synch selected playlists but then it synchs a whole load of other tracks that I don't want, which fills up my phone and the only thing I can do is manually delete them from my phone? I just plugged phone in to back up some photos.... added two tracks to one playlist and its synching another 198 tracks

I think ive disabled all auto updates but it does it anyway

Also genius sits there running in the background when ive disabled it on all phones and ipads

I raised an apple support case who said they were very sorry......

Open itunes, go to preferences, then devices.

Check the box at the bottom, click OK





Next time you plug it in, you can just drag and drop to add what you want to the device, and it won't sync everything.
Top tip, done the job thank you!

Its gone back to doing the same thing. To prove the point I removed all the music from my phone, then forced it to sync selecting only one playlist which ahs 6 songs on it and its adding another 211 random songs.And its the same songs ech time it does it and apple as usual don't want to know. Worst thing is its copying same songs to my kids devices when I back them up, including Cradle of Filth songs!
