When you connect your iPhone to your PC or Mac OS, iTunes opens automatically. It never asks as to whether you need to open each and every time you plug-in your phone or tablet. It simply does this. There's no work in approach to prevent this from happening.If you're on Windows, however, you can prevent iTunes from opening when you connect your iPhone or iPad. You can do this by removing the iTunesHelper application from your Startup items. This said trick works great to prevent iTunes from opening. It's a really substantial application and it drags down your system while it opens. At the point when iTunes launches, it will begin syncing and backing up any associated device. Once more, it doesn't ask as to whether you need to take a backup. It simply does it. The good news is, you can stop iTunes from syncing each time you plug in your iPhone.

This will stop iTunes syncing up your iPhone each time you connect it. This particular option is available on both a PC and a Mac OS. Since this is a device setting, it will continue in the event that you connect your iPhone to an another PC or Mac OS. It won't effect other devices.

It's very annoying that iTunes doesn't check how long ago the previous backup was and just takes another one each and every time a device is associated in any case, it additionally makes you take a fresh backup day by day.
