My Desktop PC, My Laptop and my Wife's Laptop all run Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit. So I don't have a 32bit computer.
Also on the box it doesn't say that 64 bit isn't supported. Also on the apple.com website I only found one place it says 64 bit wasn't supported and you have to dig for it..
Also when I bought my iPhones I bought them from a AT&T Store and at the store I bought at they got them from the back and immediately scanned it then put it in a bag and sealed the bag shut and told you you couldn't open it until your off their property.. So even if it was on the box which its not I couldn't have known until I got home from the store....
So I have 2 iPhones which I was able to get activated when I went to Washington State to visit my family I just hooked up to my Dad's computer and activated but at home in Virginia I can't sync contacts, emails, or upload my music, etc...

IPhone + iTunes + Vista 64bit

Is the iPhone/iTunes not compatable with Windows Vista 64bit edition? Everytime I connect my Phone to my PC I get this message:
The software required for iPhone is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again.
I have tried to uninstall and re-install iTunes atleast 4 times.. Doesn't fix it.

ITunes 1.6 and Windows Vista 64bit Help

I have not been able to use iTunes properly since I got a new computer with Vista 64bit. I can play music, browse iTunes Store and watch Video, but the problem comes when I try to attach my iPod Touch or try burning a CD. With the last version, it seemed that 64bit windows Vista was not supported so I just decided to wait for an upgrade. I download iTunes 1.6 from Apple.com and try to install and it says I need the 64bit iTunes Installer. Did I miss the download for it?
This is the error message I get...
This iTunes Installer is intended for 32-bit versions of Windows. It is Highly recommended that you download and install the 64-bit iTunes Installer instead.
All I need is a Link to the 64-bit Installer because I cant find it.

What's supposed to happen is that when you go to the download page, http://www.apple.com/itunes/download, it's supposed to recognize that you're running 64 bit Vista and then you get the 64 bit iTunes installer. But I've seen reports that FireFox users are only getting the 32 bit installer page.
Can you try that link with IE? And do you get a different installer then?

Vista 64bit t and itunes 7.5

I just installed Itunes 7.5 on my windows vista 64bit machine. The software loaded fine but the cd burning function doesn't work. Anyone have a solution to this problem? I know that Itunes 7.5 is not a vista 64 bit piece of software. Notwithstanding this fact, it is working fine except for the cd burning function.

Vista 64bit and iTunes 8.2.0.23 - interface problems

I've had these strange iTunes interface issues ever since I moved to Vista 64bit a while ago.
I can't adjust the volume using the volume slider at the top of the iTunes window (to the right of the Play buttons) The volume slider won't respond to my mouse.
I can't scroll the library window using the scroll bar on the right side of the iTunes window. I have to either scroll with my mouse wheel or click the arrows at the top and bottom of the scroll bar.
I also can't resize the library columns. They are either very narrow, or if I double click the column edge they will auto resize, then I am stuck with them set at the widest item in the list.
I recently uninstalled iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Devices and the Apple Updater. I then searched my Hard Drive and Registry for anything left over from Apple or iTunes and deleted it.
I then downloaded and installed the latest iTunes, hoping that these issues would be resolved, but I am still having the same issues with the latest version.
Any ideas would be welcome.
I just realized I have another issue. I can't import my playlists from Windows Media Player either. I've added my Music folder to the iTunes playlist (the same one that Windows Media Player users) and went to File -> Library -> Import Play list -> chose my WMP playlist (a .wpl file) -> clicked Open and nothing happens.
Message was edited by: Apr2009

Ok, so I saved my Windows Media Player playlist as M3U files and imported them into iTunes. Wow! What a complete mess that made of my library.
All songs that were on the playlists (hundreds of songs) were duplicated in my iTunes library. iTunes would show two entries for each song. When I right clicked and choose 'Show in Windows Explorer' both entries point to the same song, it just shows up twice in iTunes.
I cleared my iTunes library file and am starting over. I'm thinking about just going back to Windows Media Player. I've been listening to music off my Blackberry and it's really been fine. Just seemed a shame that my iPod was sitting in a drawer because of all the issues I'm having with iTunes and Vista.
The original problem I had months ago was that iTunes crashed on Vista and lost all my Playlists. I was so upset I put all my music on my SD card on my Blackberry, because Windows Media Player makes it so easy to back up your playlists. They are saved as files and can be included in any automatic backups (I have scheduled backups to another hard drive)
I thought with this new version of iTunes I could at least export the playlists to files so they can be backed up, I just don't know if I can face re-creating the playlists in iTunes.

Audible, iTunes and Vista 64bit

Hi everyone, I'm moving to a new computer tomorrow that has Vista 64bit on it. I know that iTunes is now compatible, but I have a lot of audiobooks from Audible and to listen to them I know I'll have to authorise my new computer. I've had a look through the help pages on audible's site and it says that there is a problem with iTunes that stops you from authorising your computer on a 64 bit vista machine: http://audible-uk.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/aid/3666/kw/vista%2064/rid/166
The thing is, some of the info on audible's website can be quite old so I'm not sure if this problem has been addressed yet or not. Has anyone managed to authorise a 64bit vista system for audible content? If not, can anyone think of any work arounds? (other than keeping the old computer around until the problem is fixed!)
Cheers
Nicola

I had Vista 64 and now Windows 7 64 and no issues--and there is a 64 bit version of iTunes too. All works well.

TS1368 Can not connect to iTunes after updating to 10.7 on window Vista 64bit. "Uknown error - 42408"

Just updated to iTunes 10.7 on Windows Vista 64bit and now when I try to connect to the iTunes store and just get "Uknown error has occured-42408" Please help!!!!!!!

Many thanks to the other hemisphere!
SpeedBit Video Accelerator - I cannot uninstall it, so I have upgrade it. Store is accessible now!

Windows Vista 64bit and Zen, Video Convertsion

We just updated out computer to one with Windows Vista 64bit.
Everything was fine until we tried to convert a .mov file to place it on the Zen. First it said we needed Quicktime ver 7 (which apparently the original video was created with). Tried to install that, to no avail. Turns out Quicktime 7 is not supported under Vista 64bit, according to Apple.
I then found on another message board of people having trouble running iTunes on Vista 64. Use the following link:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You can then select the 64bit version of iTunes.
After the install the video conversion worked perfectly.
Hope this helps others.
Thanks

Can I run 64bit Vista in Bootcamp?
Yes. Both the computer and OS X are fully 64-bit compliant.
You can install a second video card that does not work with OS X but does work with Windows. Third-party video cards do not work with OS X because they do not have the EFI boot ROM required by OS X. They will, however, work when you boot into Windows. You do not need to convert the Mac Pro to a Windows-only machine which would seem a waste of perfectly good hardware and software.
You can install any SATA hard drive in the Mac Pro. There is no limitation with regard to size. Cache, however, is a feature of the drive and not the computer. Apple does not "qualify" drives for use with the computer.
These questions have been discussed in the Mac Prp fourms so I suggest you search the forums for other discussions of the topics.

IPod 80GB freezes my Vista 64bit totally

I upgraded my PC recently and now I'm running Vista 64bit. Installed latest iTunes and connected my iPod. It installed something for short while and then was just supposedly looking for some driver (install icon spinning on task bar) never getting anywehere. Finally I removed my iPod as nothing else helped.
Now whenever I plug in my iPod it is recognized as USB Mass Storage Device under devices. If iTunes was running it freezes, if not, it does not start up. If I go to My Computer, iPod prevents any other USB mass storages from showing up and freezes My Computer too. I've tried uninstalling USB Mass Storage Deveice (iPod) under devices but that too freezes up never completing.
If I shut down iPod service in computer management, it at least lets me see my iPod with correct name under My Computer along with other USB removal storage devices (the USB hub in my monitor). When I try to access my iPod through My Computer it crashes again.
When I unplug my iPod, everything I was trying to do suddenly goes through and iTunes opens.
I cannot uninstall anything iPod related while it's connected and the entries are gone from under devices when it's not connected.
What is wrong?

Have you heard anything on how to fix this issue? I'm having the exact same problem.

Can anyone tell me if PSE7 is compatable on Windows Vista 64bit? I'm trying to prevent my system from continually crashing.

Can anyone tell me if PSE7 is compatable with Windows Vista 64bit? I'm trying to prevent my system from continually crashing.

This has been answered many times before, but my 2 cts for what it is worth...
I have a new PC with Vista Home Premium 64 bit, 6 GB memory, two disks, quad processor, MS Office Small Business, etc. I made a backup on my old machine to a USB disk of my 40 GB of pictures managed with PSE-7. I then installed PCE-7 on the new 64 bit machine and did a restore of the pictures. All worked first time without the slightest problem. I also installed much other software also without doing anything special concerning the 64 bits and without any problems.
Two other points possibly of interest:
- One can deal with iTunes loosing access to playlist items by exporting the playlists into an XML file and making a global edit of the file path names if the data strutcture on the new machine is different. One then imports the corrected XML.
- I bought a 2560*1600 30 inch NEC display and viewing good-quality digital pictues is amazing. The first time I have found an output device with resolution better than a tiny fraction of what is in the picture files. Colours are also excellent.

ITunes Vista 64 bit --- display errors

I have recently run into a problem with iTunes 8.2 for Vista 64 bit. When the window is not maximized, or close to taking up my entire screen, podcast and album covers, icons for the 'GET" for podcast, the icons for closing/max/min in the top right corner, and the store front does not scroll properly. There is a weird drawing error that seems to get resolved once I maximize iTunes to take up the entire screen.
I have uninstalled, redownloaded the latest iTunes Vista 64 bit, but to no avail remains unresolved. For the life of me I can't figure out why this is happening. I don't recall having this problem with the prior version of iTunes. I am running on a new Sager 9262 laptop with a GeForce 9800M GTX. I can't imagine this could be a video driver issue since it was working fine before.

Well I have an update. I uninstalled MS Office and still had the black screen issue with iTunes. Resizing did not help, Turning off DEP had no effect.
To make a long story short. I found a utility I had installed from the Samsung T260 monitor CD was causing my Problem. I disabled MultiScreen in the start up configuration (msconfig from the Command prompt).
iTunes (including the new version 8) has not had the black screen since I disabled (and then uninstalled) MultiScreen.
I do not know if there is an update to MultiScreen - I don't use it anyway.
Neilapril - this has worked for me... I hope it does the same for you.

ICloud wont work on Windows Vista 64bit

Hey there,
Ive been using iCloud with my iPhone 4, iPad and my MacBook Pro since it came out and it all works perfect.
Now I wanted it to run on my Windows Vista 64bit Desktop PC, to sync with Safari, Outlook etc.
My problem is: Everytime I start iCloud and confirm my username and password, iCloud is just shutting down saying "iCloud is no longer working" (in German: iCloud funktioniert nicht mehr)
I reinstalled it severall times and its always the same error...MobileMe has the same error by the way...Ive searched so long on the web and in other forums but no one had a clue...Hopefully you can help me!
Thanks,
p0ly

Hmmm. No, not exactly, but close enough (for me). Sorrry, in my rush I klutz'd the response. First I had MicroSoft do a clean install of 64 bit Offfice on my 64 bit Vista, then I uninstalled MobileMe, and iCloud, then reinstalled iCloud in that order. Oh...and by the way ... this was on 2 of my Vista machines. My virgin Win 7 machine had no issues at all with 32 bit.
The salient point I (regretably) missed in my first reply was to clean up the all references to Outlook in the registry. The tech tought the problem was related to keys for a (long ago) trial version of Office; Tho that was speculation on his part.
One thing is clear: The Apple tech said MobileMe has been replaced by iCloud and to remove it!
In the process, I learned that each (4) MS tech's stated, "Outlook has no issues, the problem is with Apple." I had to force them to do a clean install ... after failing with 2 techs I took a harder stance - happy I did. One told me they are under pressure to keep their calls under 15 minutes. Uninstall/cleanup/reinstall took ~2 hours.
Appologies p0ly,
tom
