Itune/Quicktime and XP64

[Guest nospam]

I've just installed XP64 and can't get Quicktime to work. How about

Itune? Will it work with XP64? TIA

Re: Itune/Quicktime and XP64

 

You have to go on-line while in x64 to get the x64 package.

Once you do that it should work fine.

Is it me, or do those Itunes updates never work for X64? I've got in

the habit of just saying no rather than doing the download and

watching it bomb.

 

When I fire up itunes, I get some complaint about the program not

being set up right regarding the burner. Otherwise it runs fine and I

can't see the need to burn from itunes. Itunes is becoming bloatware.

I thanked prematurely... Neither one works with XP64.

 

Any other suggestions? :)

Then I would presume you have something wrong with your

system. If you search this forum for 'itunes' not 'itune'

you should find about a dozen posts from in January 2008 on

itunes and the 64-bit version on x64.

OK, thanks, I'll give it another shot although I don't believe there ia

anything wrong with my system because Windows Media Player play global

radio streams flawlessly.

 

I did notice, however, that Vista is supported. Am I right to assume

that XP64 is not supported per se and skipped altogether?

From the support page at

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301

"iTunes is currently not supported in Windows XP Professional x64 Edition.

Features may or may not work correctly. One example is reading or writing to

an optical drive (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RW). It's also possible iTunes

for Windows may not successfully install."

 

The system requirements for QuickTime 7.4:

Windows XP with Service Pack 2

Windows Vista

Hmmm...Rather odd "may or may not work" explanation from a reputable

company. Thanks for nothing Apple :)

Re: Itune/Quicktime and XP64

 

I should think that the problems writing to an optical drive would be a

showstopper. Oh well.

As per my comment that when I fire up Itunes, it complains about it

being installed incorrectly and may not be able to burn CDs. I can't

be the only person getting that message.

 

Apple doesn't grasp the idea of supporting multiple platforms. I

really hope they never attempt to become a serious windows software

provider. I'd certainly never buy anything from them given their

attitude about X64. Even Safari won't work on older OSs like win2kpro

which is still run by many users.

There is a version of itunes out now for Vista 64-Bit, not sure about the XP

x64
