Trying to use iphone with Windows Vista

I previously owned a Macbook which I just got rid of and have decided to go back to PC after having way too many problems with my Mac. I just purchased a new laptop which runs Windows Vista.
I tried connecting my iphone to the computer and it is not being recognized.
Can anyone offer any advice on why it isn't working? (I connected my iPod which just said I had to restore before I could use which I will be doing once I'm sure all the info has been backed up)
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

You cannot drag pics from computer to iphone. This has never been a feature of iphone.
You sync them as you would anything esle.
You select photos from the photos tab. Whatever is selected will be on your iphone. Anything not selected will not be. Make sure that everything you want on your iphone is selected, then sync.

Can't use iTunes with Windows Vista Home Premium

I have deleted and reinstalled so many times, so i tried the compatibility settings and set it to work for Windows XP(Service Pack 2) with 256 colours. It works, but it messes up all my colours.
Help, please.
(My brother got iTunes working on his Windows Vista Home Premium laptop, but it won't work for the desktop computer.)

i think the file name quicktime.msi is causing the problem
also forgot to add that installation stops when the status turns to computing space requirements

Issues Using iTunes with Windows Vista 64bit

Wondering whether anyone has faced below mentioned problems and any suggestions thereof:
1.Most of times when I launch iTunes, the UI does not appear for many minutes, sometime extending to 5 - 10 minutes. I could see iTunes running in the Windows Task Manager, but without the UI appearing. Sometime relaunching the application does the trick, but most of the doesn't.
2.When I connect iPod (Classic), iTunes sort of freezes up, again sometime extending to multiple of minutes. In that process it also freezes up other applications e.g. Firefox browser. I cannot do anything on my laptop during that time.
Any help

Apple, apparently, had a fix up for an earlier version of itunes, but that is gone from the web page, and has been yanked.
Yes, there are big problems with iTunes for Windows. Until these are rectified, your Ipod will be a paper weight.

Installation Flash cs3 with Windows Vista Ultimate

I am trying to use Flash on Windows Vista Ultimate.
Installing the program tells me a mistake "error in the
installation component". I have tried to install in administrator
mode and windows account manager
Can anyone tell me how to install Flash for suite cs3?

I would download a new installer, you can get the trial
installer, then just enter your serial when you first run it.
Sounds like a corrupt exe. But yes, make sure and run as
Administrator by right clicking the file.

Does Lightroom 4 work with Windows Vista?

Hi, I can't find Vista mentioned anywhere in association with Lightroom 4. Before I purchase this software, could someone please tell me if I will have compatability issues between LR4 and Vista. Thank you

When LR4 was announced, they said it worked with Windows Vista with Service Pack 2. See: http://thelightroomlab.com/2012/03/adobe-photoshop-lightroom-4-now-available/
Since then, Adobe has un-helpfully removed that from its website, and now the website says you need Windows 7. see: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html
Nevertheless, I believe that there are many people in this forum using LR4 with Windows Vista. Perhaps one of them will speak up.

Sync with windows vista

if a sync my iPhone with windows vista i can do all what i can do if i have mac os x?

I have outlook 2007 and my contacts, calanders all sync. I have another iphone that syncs to an imac and I do not see any difference in the ability to sync music, movies etc., except that the imac does it a lot faster than my dual core vista. Both are new machines but the Imac is about 65% faster at least. Hope this helps and enjoy your phone. I convinced my wife to chuck her blackberry curve (3 months old) for the iphone and now she's telling all her friends what a great improvement she made with her choice and she surfs the net, plays music and syncs like a pro.

I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk. It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

ITunes Match now stalls on step 1. I have a PC with Windows Vista. I've use Match for a long time

iTunes Match now stalls on step 1. I have a PC with Windows Vista. I've used iTunes Match for a long time & it has worked well until last week. Most of my songs now have a dotted outlined cloud beside them & I can't download to my phone. 6 new albums can't be seen at all. I've turned off Match (with shift key down) & turned it back on - restricted my upload speed to 75% of max - I even uninstalled iTunes & re-installed it. Any suggestions?

iTunes Match is stalled in the same place again today. Step 1 seems to have completed as the blue progress bar is complete. The message says "Delivering your iTunes Match results..." When I went to bed last night, this is where iTunes was stuck. But this morning, Match had stopped trying to "deliver." It obviously did not finish because 6 new albums do not show up on my iPhone 5 - all of the 3 steps on the Match page were grayed out this morning & the "Start" button was available.
This is what I did yesterday - I looked at My Music and clicked "Songs." I then added the "iCloud" column and sorted by that field. I found about 100 files that had a problem of some sort (cloud with exclamation point inside). Each of them had lost track of where the music file was - even though the music files were exactly where they should have been. I re-linked (one at a time) all of the music files to the song titles. In the cloud field one song was described as "ineligible for iTunes Match." It had a could with a line drawn through it. I didn't know what that meant, so I deleted the song.
I then turned off iTunes Match holding the shift key down & iTunes began collecting information from my library. This took several hours but it did seem to complete because it changed to the "delivering results" message. However, this morning I noticed that all of the files I re-linked yesterday still had the "error cloud" symbol today - a cloud with an exclamation mark inside. Yesterday these songs wouldn't play until I re-linked the files. Today they will play as expected, but they still have the "error cloud.' To add to my confusion albums marked with the "error file" are still able to be downloaded to my phone, but the songs with the "error cloud" will not play smoothly on my PC. They stutter regularly throughout playback. However, if I download one of those songs or albums to my phone, it plays perfectly.
I hope this helps someone to explain what my problem is & the appropriate solution. I have a little more than 12,000 songs in my library in case that makes a difference. Should I just delete the files with he "error cloud"? All of the songs appear to be still in the cloud because they are available for download to my phone.

HT1339 my ipod shuffle(1st generation) is corrupted (error 1442) it will not restore. is it possible to correct this or is it beyond repair. It worked the last time I used it on my laptop with Windows Vista. Vista.

My ipod shuffle (1st generation) will not restore. It says it is corrupted(error 1442) Is it possible to correct this problem, or is it beyond repair. It worked last time I used it on my laptop with Windows Vista. Any help would be much appreciated.

Im actually tilting it up where it cinnects to my iPod, not where it connects to my computer, and i have tried three(yes, 3) different cables, one of which i bought brand new. still nothing, and i've also tried different USB ports on my computer,....nothing. Could this simply be a hardware failure of somekind? maybe a physical problem...i mean, why would i have to tilt the cable in order for my computer to actually read my iPod? im looking at the USB connector on my iPod (maybe it's my imagination, not sure) it possible might be bent, the little metal part in the port.

This should get your itunes store connection working.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
