How to disable “Select the program to launch for this action” message
Let’s assume that you don’t want this message “Select the program to launch for this action” to pop-up when you connect your iPod to your computer. It can be as well a phone, an external HDD, a photo camera or any other peripheral which you connect to your PC, time to time. This message is just annoying, right?

So, how to disable it? In fact is very simple. Follow next steps:
1. Open My Computer
2. Look for iPod listed into the driver’s list. It will be somewhere at the bottom of it. If you want to disable the message for a phone or other peripherals is the same thing.
3. Right click on it
4. Properties
5. Click on Events Tab

6. choose from the list “take no action”
7. Apply
8. OK
Right now every time when you connect the iPod to your computer, the message “Select the program to launch for this action” will not pop-up anymore.
