iam going to try it,before one last question.......

you said,your iPod 3g has no trouble syncing with iTunes when u plug it in.

this one is ipod 30gb,

so,any kind of ipod will not have any problem when disabling those 3,right ?

davesam · 12-09-2008

i opened Windows Services,already it was like you said,i didnt made any change

Apple Mobile Device Disabled
Bonjour Service Disabled
iPod Service Manual

i disabled Apple Mobile Device,Bonjour Service and itunes service using autorun,but still its running in background,

how can i fix it ?

davesam · 12-10-2008

that time all the below three were running even after i unchecked using autorun.........
Apple Mobile Device
Bonjour Service
iPod Service

now everythings fine.i stopped it...........

except onething.........that is datalayer.exe(datalayer.exe process info for Nokia PC Suite Component)

i cant able to see datalayer.exe in serives as well as in autorun ?

Arctos · 12-10-2008

datalayer.exe is a process belonging to Nokia PC Suite. It is a collection of tools used to synchronize and manage data and settings on the phone with your PC.

I think this is best left alone if it is not in Services and Autorun.

I do not have a Nokia phone so cannot give you advice on how to disable it...

davesam · 12-11-2008

no problem,it disappeared automatically.i dont know how............

after you told me that i can disable from administrator tools---services.......now only i now that.

so,can i uninstall autorun ?

Yup. Any processes you disable for startup turn back on when they are needed.
