Not necessarily. Many times hardware gets shipped with older drivers - reguarless of when the comuter was purched or bult.

Does Apple have a Data Execution Prevention (DEP) compatible version of iTunes for Vista?

I have followed instructions found on the Apple Support boards for the past 3 days regarding the fact that DEP will not allow the iTunes updates to operate on Windows Vista. I wish I had a dollar for every time I have uninstalled adn reinstalled iTunes, only to get the same results. It instally correctly, but will not open. It gets shut down by DEP every time. YOU CAN'T TURN OFF DEP FOR iTUNES IN VISTA!!! I don't care what the instructions from Apple and Microsoft say, it can't be done.
So, does anybody know if Apple has a version of the iTunes that is compatible with DEP? Or, are that hopefully at least working on one? My iPhone and iPod are useless.

Have you downloaded and installed Windows Vista Service Pack 1 yet?
This may assist you with that you are running into. If you have already done this let me know. Could still potentially be something going on with the Apple Software.
If this is the case the link below describes how to fully clean out Apple Software. Possible file that belongs to Apple may of become corrupted and thus causing iTunes not to launch Properly.
But before you check the article out. Have you right clicked on the iTunes Application and chose Run as Administrator?
You can also right click on the iTunes App, Select Properties, and select Compatibility Mode - And make sure that is not turned on and set for something else. As this could potentially be running in a different mode.

Itunes and vista error message

I just purchased a new computer with vista and now my ipod/itunes won't work. i have upgraded to the itunes 7.1 (i think) and at first- my itunes synced with my ipod nano, and now it won't...error message (-50) An unknown error occured. And then it says: The disk could not be read from or written to. Why? I purchased more songs from itunes and I can't get them on my ipod...any ideas?

iTunes not working in Vista is a bunch of bull...I personally rag on Apple for not releasing a "comaptible" (I put that in quotes because it really does work...I'll explain in a moment) version of iTunes upon release of Vista...considering that many Apple customers run Windows...
Anyway, I bought my laptop in November before Vista even launched...I had an Express Upgrade to Vista...the trick to getting iTunes to work on Vista is a clean install of Vista onto the hard drive. When I clean installed my copy of Vista, iTunes was the first program I installed onto my computer. The results were interesting:
1. Aero does work with both iTunes and Quicktime. The actual iTunes and Quicktime program themselves don't utilize the Aero interface, but Aero doesn't turn off for the rest of the computer.
2. iTunes is fully compatible with Vista. All my songs play and my iPod updates just fine.
3. Purchased music does play in Vista. All my movies, TV shows, and music I bought from iTunes play after iTunes prompts me to authorize my computer...somehow iTunes even knew that I removed my old copy of XP and it must've deauthorized my iTunes from XP because authorizing iTunes in Vista didn't take up an extra authorization of my allowed five.
To do a clean install of Vista follow the directions from this web site. You MUST HAVE A COPY OF YOUR VISTA OPERATING SYSTEM CD WITH THE PRODUCT KEY AND YOUR COMPUTER'S DRIVERS THAT CAME WITH YOUR SYSTEM!!! These are important in case Vista isn't able to use some hardware on your computer upon install, but Vista now has most drivers already installed...when I installed Vista on my Dell the only driver I had to download from Dell's web site was for my Bluetooth device.

Can't run itunes on Vista - Data Execution Prevention issue

Have installed iTunes on vista successfully. When I try to launch, was prompted to re-install iTunes again... digged a bit and came across this Data Execution Prevention issue...
Any idea how to solve this issue?

The following polydorus post is a good place to start with a DEP error:

ITunes with Vista

I have Windows Vista ultimate installed on a PC.
When I connect my iPod Video windows warns that this device needs to be scanned. I have refused to allow it to do so. iTunes will sometimes recognize the iPod is connected, sometimes not, sometimes it will freeze.
Same Hardware with XP Pro installed never had a single issue in the 6 months I've owned the iPod.
thanks,

I also have undocumented issues with iTunes 7.1.1 and my 80GB 5th gen iPod. I waited patiently for 7.1.1 (it would not work at all with previous version of iTunes and Vista) and even when I installed 7.1.1 it would not recognise the iPod was connected, or if it did it would crash and blue screen Windows.
What I fond worked was to restore the iPod back to factory settings (make sure you have a good back up of your music, either in iTunes on your PC or better still on both your PC and a extra backup. This will effectively completely wipe your iPod. I then found conecting it back to iTunes that it recognised it quickly and synced the music quickly, i.e. it worked as expected.
However, trying to sync the Vista My Pictures folder with my iPod is impossible. I have about 5,000 pictures and it takes about 1-2 minutes per picture to optimise the pictures before syncing. As you can imagine, I have not let this function complete, an in mot cases it still crashes my PC. Something is no working still,maybe related to the recognised USB support issue for iTunes that Microsoft is still working on.
Does anyon have any ideas?

Can't install Itunes on vista

Can't install Itunes on vista keep getting a message "could not access network location $appdata$". I tried installing quick time on its own which worked fine. Tried to remove Quicktime and get the same error as above. I have successfully installed Itunes on an XP and windows7 machine.... Any Ideas ....please

With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), the following Microsoft document is worth a try:
You receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a Microsoft program

When I open iTunes using Vista its showing up as com and not iTunes

when I open iTunes using Vista its showing up as com and not iTunes

Vista is an operating system... you do not open anything with it.
What do you mean "its showing up as com"? What is "com"?
Maybe try posting in your native language so that we have a better understanding of what the real issue is.

ITunes Causing Vista BSOD with RAID Errors

This thread is here to collate as much information and posts on the problem regarding BSODs occuring in Windows Vista and causing RAID errors to occur.
What Happens: Start iTunes and start performing a hard drive intensive task (Importing, converting etc). iTunes will seem to 'freeze', in some cases up to five minutes, but will regardless cause Windows Vista to BSOD. On restart the RAID array will complain of errors. Most cases are that restarting again and clearing the error will be fine, though there are some reports that people have had to rebuild their array.
Common Elements: Windows Vista, iTunes, Intel RAID Chipsets (ICH6R, ICH7R and ICH8R chipsets reported so far.

I'm running a dual boot with WinXP Pro SP2 as the primary OS, Vista RC1 on separate partition. I had Vista Ultimate (RC1) Release Candidate 1, a pre-release version of Vista up and running with iTunes version 7.1.1. Updating My Library, when system crashed and trashed my array.
I was running 2 400GB WD's when my RAID 1 erred. The array corrupted and after limping through several array rebuilds and Windows repairs, Win XP finally died and was unrecoverable.
I originally suspected an issue with Vista & iTunes, especially since I was running a pre-release version of Vista then I remembered reading a recent WD Support issue about some newer WD SATA Gen 2 drives failing in RAID arrays.
To make a long story short, thank God for my back-up NAS Drives, I lost my array. Traced the problem to a Raid compatibility issue with the WD drives running in full SATA ATA Gen 2 transfer rate mode and the Intel ICHR8 SATA RAID Controller. They don't play nice together when stressed with large file transfers. Replaced WD's with two Seagate 750's in RAID 1, running full SATA Gen 2 mode and have had no problems since.
Check out WD's Support forums, if you have newer WD's I'll bet it's a SATA RAID / Drive issue more than iTunes and Vista.

ITunes on Vista can't see Airport Express

As above, really. I've got an Airport Express configured to join my wireless network which works fine with my MacBook Air. iTunes on the Air sees the Airport Express and streams to the speakers it's connected to; but iTunes on Vista can't see it.
My Vista PC is connected by ethernet cable to a DLink router, to which the MacBook Air and the Airport Express connect wirelessly. This setup worked fine with my previous Belkin router.
Any thoughts? Many thanks in advance.

On your Vista PC, temporarily disable your Windows Firewall. Did this solve the problem?
To disable the Windows Firewall:
o Control Panel > Network and Internet > Windows Firewall
o Turn Windows Firewall on or off

Installing iTunes in Vista from Backup?

I installed Vista and what I did is backup My Music folder that I had in XP over on my other hard drive. I moved the music I had over to the music folder in Vista before I installed iTunes and when iTunes installed all the songs in the libary where doubled or even tripled for each song. What would cause this to happen. Should I have not moved the music from my backup drive first? Thanks.

Should I have not moved the music from my backup drive first?
I have the same setup as you do, and when I copied my music from my XP hard drive, I just put it on my desktop (in vista). Then I installed itunes and just told it to add the files from my desktop (make sure you have the "keep my music organized" box checked0. When it's all done, you can just delete the music folder on your desktop.
I don't quite understand your second post. Are you telling itunes on vista to look at your other folder on XP? If so, don't do that, do what I said above.

ITunes Crashing vista

Can anyone explain why the new itunes 7.1 the claimed fix!! now crashes vista as soon as i open it and is there another fix i can try i have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times to no avail PLEASE HELP it already corrupted my ipod now i have a blank ipod and no way to sync it!!!!

Read this, it should help explain a few things to ya. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=789157&tstart=75
iTunes and Vista are not playing very nicely together at this point. I would hope that the next version will smooth out all the kinks. I believe it should be out soon. But as for the crashing thing, I have not heard that one before.

ITunes on Vista HP will not allow me to 'drag and drop'

iTunes on Vista HP will not allow me to 'drag and drop' saved mp4 or mp3 files into any playlist.
As I am totally new to Apple products please help me.

Okay...no replies as yet so I've been having a play.
I have the latest version of iTunes from the Apple site and my tracks have been downloaded from the net into MP4's in one file.Now,if I try and 'DND' into any of the music folders nothing happens....EXCEPT when I hover he cursor over 'iTunes DJ'....when released the tracks can now be found in 'Recently Added' folder,and can be played.
Now...how do I get them into a folder ? Well,it's time for bed so will play again tomorrow (although I bet i'm up until 1am trying to figure it out !! ).

Hi. I'm trying to download itunes on vista 32 bit. I've uninstalled my previous version of itunes. Each time I start downloading it stops at 12% - every time. I've turned off my pop-up blocker. Any ideas greatly appreciated

Hi. I'm trying to download itunes on vista 32 bit laptop. I've uninstalled my previous version of itunes. Each time I start downloading it stops at 12% - every time. I've turned off my pop-up blocker. Any ideas greatly appreciated

After this frustrating event, just wanted to let others know how I solved it. After fully deleting iTunes 8 - still no success. Finally went to the Apple store in Perth WA. Using their in store wireless, it downloaded fully. I use wireless 3 and obviuosly the signal is not strong enough. The Apple store is one amzing experience - worth the frustration with getting iTunes 10 downloaded. Will have to take another visit to the store as my upgrades keep falling over.
