IPod and Windows Vista beta 2 X64

Hi..
I've just installed the vista beta X64.. and iTunes don't work with it..
here's the solution:
Buy Anapod explorer..
First download the latest update (now 28-06-06)..
install it..
then install anapod..
Then it's working..

As I recall, it will not install in the current version of Parallels. There are some changes that need to be made to the bios code that Parallels uses. The company posted on its forums at one point that this ability will come in the next release.

  • 30G Video IPod and Windows Vista - Help!

    I just recently bought a new computer equipped with Windows Vista. I have a 12" G4 iBook that was my main computer from which I ran my 30G Video iPod, and now I am wanting to sync my iPod with my new Windows computer, and this will be the only system I use with my iPod.
    I realize there are many problems with compatibility of iTunes/iPods with Windows Vista.
    My question is, barring the problems with iTunes, I downloaded the latest iTunes anyways and tried to use Yamipod to bring my 1600+ songs onto my computer from my iPod by bypassing iTunes. Problem is, my computer doesn't even recognize the iPod at all. iTunes does, but when I cancel the box asking me to reformat my iPod to Windows format and try to use Yamipod, Yamipod doesn't even recognize an iPod existing. I thought maybe it was just the program, so I tried about 4 others, but nothing. I also used the cd that came with my iPod and put the drivers onto this computer, but the actual computer still doesn't even recognize it plugged in.
    Any ideas? Also, because a lot of my songs are in m4a format, how will that work if I am able to put them on this computer? Will I have to convert them all to mp3?
    Thank you for any help you can give.

    And given that Vista has been available in Release
    candidate version for ages and that the release date
    has been known for ages, shouldn't apple have made
    the effort to make itunes compatible with Vista?
    After all, the vast majority of itunes users live in
    Windows land.
    perhaps you should familiarise yourself with the common usage and implications of the symbol string
    but as you clearly aren't familiar with it, if i took your question seriously, which i don't, then the answer is no...
    your argument is that being first and being in the majority rules
    that'll be apple then won't it
    i) i can't be bothered to check the itunes release date, certainly it was out in 2001, which is several years before microsoft even figured out what to call the os formerly known as longhorn, let alone finished sawing off the pieces it couldn't make work
    ii) the majority of people with portable music players use ipod/itunes, so it is for microsoft to conform with the majority and not make changes that impair the products used by the majority
    so, by your own argument, it is microsoft's responsibility to maintain compatibility

  • Parallels and Windows Vista Beta 2

    Has anyone been able to successfully load Windows Vista Beta 2 on the final release of Parallels?

    I just read a little bit ago that "they" are saying in the next release - as in V3 - later this year. I forget just where, but search "Vista Parallels" on Google.
    I just tried to load Vista with Parallels - no go.

  • IPod and Windows Vista

    Hi,
    if i connect my iPod to my Windows Vista PC teh CPU usage goes up to 100%. The process svchost take nearly all the processortime.
    iTunes and iPod are up to date.
    I getting mad about that. With Win XP i don not have these probs.
    Any ideas about that ?
    Greetings Admiral

    I take it that you're a developer.
    It is likely that your iPod may not work with Windows Vista (hasn't it still not been properly been released?) - anyway, Try the Microsoft Forums aswell.
    hmmmmm
    You don't really need a driver to use a driver to get a Windows XP computer to work with an iPod. Same goes probably for the Windows Vista.
    So, try getting the iPod Updater.
    Restore & Update your iPod, then try it with iTunes.
    Has your iPod been used with any other operating systems? e.g. Windows XP??? or is it just Windows Vista?

  • Trouble with itunes ipod and windows vista

    I just got a new computer with windows vista home premium (32bit) and i am having trouble syncing my ipod with itunes.
    when i connect the ipod it asks me if i want to scan and fix the drive, if i click continue without scanning it sometimes wont let me sync, and if it does it only gets about half my music on there before saying it is unable to write to it (unknown error 53)

    I have a similar problem, with my new iPod Touch crashing an XP Professional setup. It's worth noting that the Apple article also talks about potential USB conflicts with other devices on the system that might have bad drivers. They say the solution, if that is the fault, is to make sure all your USB drivers are good. I'll try that, by a process of elimination, before re-installing iTunes (as I thought I had the latest version and I don't have Vista). I'll come back here later to report the outcome.
    (serious if your iPod crashed your PC - can't even charge its battery ! )

  • 30gig 5th generation video ipod and windows vista

    i've been reading alot of posts putting vista down in reguards to the video ipod . i just wanted to say that i have window's vista home premium and my first video ipod
    30gig and i've not had a single problem related to vista.
    any problems have been to me never having owned an ipod .
    just thought i'd set the record straight for those who are thinking of getting a video ipod and already have vista .
    you know , just fyi .
    but i am wondering , how well does the ipod record notes ?
    and anyone here in a band and tape their rehearsals ? was wondering how it sounds . thanks all !

    after I watched them they dissappeared from my ipod,
    Sounds like you have selected to only sync unwatched video content to your iPod.
    This is a setting that you can change in your iTunes preferences.
    Have a look through this:

  • QuickTime 7.6 and Windows Vista UItimate x64

    Are we going to have a fix for the black bar on Windows Vista x64? It's been over 2 years I believe and there still isn't a fix for this quiet important problem. I know I can change the compatibility of my browser, but it's not what I want to do.
    I have QuickTime Pro by the way.

    u have to be kidding? everyone i know with a x64 OS running any x86 browser gets this issue. Windows Vista, Server 2008 or Windows 7. I have never seen any of them ever not have this.
    and the **** poor exscuse of "x64 is not supported" it BS. OEM machines are now being sold with x64 its pretty much main stream.

  • Ipod and Windows Vista - VBScript

    When trying to downlaod Itunes 7.1.1 - I am getting an error message "Itunes can not be installed beacuse Visual Basic Script is not installed or has been diabled". Dell tried downlaoding it still the same error message. They say Apple is not compadable with Itunes yet.

    even though the following document talks about Windows XP rather than Vista, try using the instructions for registering VBScript.dll from it:
    iTunes and QuickTime for Windows cannot be installed without Visual Basic Script (VBScript)

  • Videos won't work on windows vista beta 2

    Ok i Have windows vista beta 2 and most of my itunes work fine but videos won't show up, even when i bought one it dident show up, and that is really weird because everything works fine on my laptop with itunes and windows vista beta 2.Why won't it work? if someone can help me that would be great
    Other OS

    If you want a success then download movie trailers from Apple's QuickTime site and convert them using QuickTime for the iPod.
    The new King Kong trailer is available in iPod format and looks stunning.
    I put together a guide for converting movies to the iPod:

  • Windows Vista Beta

    HomeSite and Windows Vista Beta:
    I have used homeSite almost from its initial release many
    years ago. Version 5.0 has been loaded and reloaded on I think 3
    platforms now, maybe four.
    I have recently installed windows Vista Beta and was deeply
    distressed to find that the code would not install. Because Vista
    released a short time ago (June 13, 2006) there may be a workaround
    for the install. Until that time I will simply dual boot back to
    Windows XP and continue to use homeSite 5.0 from there.
    I have a legitimate copy (albeit unregistered) of the code.
    Rick ..

    You may have found this out by now... but Ill post it anyway
    I had the same prob getting homesite to work in Vista, and
    manage to getting it working in compatibility mode... worked quite
    well actually.
    Navigate to your homesite.exe and right click, then in
    properties there is an compatibilty option, set it to Windows XP
    Service Pack 2 and all should be good. I think you may need to
    disable the homesite splash screen too.. Im sure that screwed
    things up for me.
    Eitherway I got it working in the end, but Im back to XP
    now.

  • Ipod nano first generation and windows vista

    I finally got everything to work right with Itunes and Windows Vista except one minor problem.
    On my ipod, the blue "dot" does not show up when a podcast is new, so in a long lists of podcasts, I can't tell which ones I already listened to.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    Thank you, Debra

    I have a new ipod nano and can not download iTunes to Winnows Vista.
    Need all the help that i can get. Thanks,

  • Windows Vista Beta 2 and Soundblaster PCI

    When Windows Vista Beta 2 was first installed, it installed a generic driver for the PCI52 sound card. However, since the driver is generic It has limited functionality. I am not able to enable the quadraphonic option in Control Panel under the "Audio Devices and Sound Themes" icon. I would like a more compatible driver to replace the generic driver, or something that would enable the quadraphonic option.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you,
    Charles

    Charles,
    I'd like to know as well. I have a 4-speaker system attached to my PCI52 as well with Windows VISTA SP and have not found a way to enable the other two speakers.

  • Windows Vista Beta 2 Download Available FREE from MS

    Ok who wants to try to run this with BootCamp ??? I am guessing it should be fine as its a release for x86 CPU (Intel).
    Heres the link:

    Its a 3GB ISO image which means you will need to burn the image to a DVD on completion...

    I am not too sure how getting the product key works - I am sure someone out there can work it out !!!
    Dont shoot the messenger !

    Excellent ! Thanks for the heads up Nick.
    I tried it in 'Image Mode' on Parallels (using the ISO as the boot image) and it definitely starts, but halts at an unknown USB device error. I disabled all the devices in Parallels - but no joy.
    I am not in a mad rush to do it anyway - might try with BootCamp some time.
    Did anyone get a result with the activation key via the SECOND LINK I provided (registering with MS ) ???

    Heres the instructions for BootCamp and Vista taken from the forum in a prev post: (attempt at your own risk)...
    Installing Vista works fine without erasing your OS X partition. Here are some instructions I used that worked perfectly.
    "1) Boot to the Vista DVD.
    2) When I got to the "Choose a drive to install to" page, pressed "advanced" (or "more drive info" or whatever it's called).
    3) Selected the first partition (200MB unknown partition), this was the EFI partition.
    4) Pressed "delete."
    5) Selected the Windows partition to install to.
    From there Vista took about an hour to install on my build. After the first reboot it came back with a "Could not find Winload.exe" error.
    To fix that, I booted to the DVD again and selected "recovery options" - it said "Your startup information is invalid, click Repair And Restart to fix it".
    On the next reboot it worked fine."
    Taken from this thread: http://forum.osx86project.org/index....ic=14448&st=40
    NOTE: The Boot Camp drivers CD will not install properly so the wireless networking won't work out of the box. The regular ethernet driver works straight out of the box with Vista as well as the graphics driver, sound, bluetooth. You need to extract the drivers manually from the setup.exe in the boot camp disk to get the wireless networking driver, brightness control and CDEject.exe or whatever it's called. The startup control panel will also need to be installed manually. At least that is the case for the iMacs.
    Note #2: Deleting that EFI partition will make it so you can't erase the windows partition from withing the boot camp app in OS X. You would need to restore the EFI partition manually if you wanted to do that.

  • Recognizing an iPod with Windows Vista

    I have a new computer that came with Windows Vista. I have not been able to get iTunes to operate correctly for Windows Vista to recognize the USB connection to my iPod. Anyone have a patch or downloadable software suggestion to resolve this?

    groans
    I finally figured I had nothing to lose--I'd just downloaded a new version of Real Player, which supposedly will work with iPods and Windows Me--and I let my computer format the iPod, hoping that would let it work with Windows again. Apparently not. Now it won't turn on--it's giving me the folder-and-exclamation-point icon. Resetting it didn't help, and I can't restore it because I can't install the software to my computer in the first place.
    I suppose the only thing to do is borrow a friend's computer or something.
