Apple’s iTunes is the only program for the I-gadgets (iPhone, iTouch, iPod…) to sync the videos, songs and information with the PC. A good news to the 64 bit supporters, the new released iTunes 7.6 is now offically support Vista 64 bit. Unfortunately, it doesn’t support Windows XP x64 or Windows 2003 x64. As claims, 64-bit version of iTunes contains no drivers that are XP/2k3 x64 compatible. Just check the requirements in http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ :

Windows Requirements
32-bit editions of Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Vista
64-bit editions of Windows Vista

I am a XP Pro x64 user and was scratching my head to get the iTunes working in my PC. Most results from the internet are both are incompatible. I might need to get my OS upgraded to Vista x64 or downgraded to XP Pro x32 in order for the iTunes to work and detects my iTouch. The iTunes x64 “iTunes64Setup.exe” downloaded from it’s official website was giving me error during the installation in XP Pro x64, it seems like it is the end of the world for my iTouch unless I change my OS.

But.. everything has it’s solution, just be patient when looking for the solution ^_^
In the coming posts, I will show the STEP by STEP solution to have the iTunes working in my XP Pro X64 and how to jailbreak my iTouch to 1.1.4 with ziphone. But if you are hardworking, you can just google around in the internet, just… be patient…

so.. stayed tune ^_^
