iTunes keeps crashing

[steve_t]

Really? I must be about the only guy happily running itunes with windows! And last.fm integration is great too.

Nah, I'm good with it too

Trying to download the 32bit version didn't work, just said I needed a 64bit version once I tried to open it and then closed lol

That's why I love my Walkman sometimes, Windows just treats it like a USB stick.

-Indy

What?!?!?! Are you saying it's not possible to just copy and paste like you would with a USB flash drive?

maybe run the installer in 32bit mode?

ummm, i think if you put it in the x86 program files folder it will do it automatically maybe

[steve_t]

Can you right click on the installer, click 'properties', go to the 'compatibility' tab, 'run in (some 32bit windows) mode'?

Not sure if this works

Ok my turn.
Win 7 x64
Installed the correct version.
When I first got the ipod was working fine, transferred music to it fine, did an update, turned to shit.
Installed an old update (after removing everything apple related)
Will boot up fine with no problems however when I plug the ipod in itunes wont recognise it FFS
So I just settle for the same old fucking songs now, half of which are shit because I mass transferred FML!
Tried transferring manually (copy n paste) but it doesn't actually allow me into the folder it just loads forever

If you want compatibility issues, then why not use Linux? Oh, that's right, with Linux my phone and MP3 player is plug and play. With Apple you're just paying to have compatibility issues, and the investors are laughing all the way to the bank.

Maybe, compatibility issues come from having an OS which is actually compatible with a vast amount of software...

Just to clarify, I was talking about Apple hardware compatibility problems, not the OS itself. A USB MP3 player that needs special software for it to work is just retarded. I haven't had any problems with non Apple storage devices formatted in either NTFS or FAT32 working with various different OSs without the need for extra software. It should be "plug and play".

They can be used plug and play, but to get enhanced functionality you need the software to sync it all up. If you just want a plug and play device, why pay the premium for apple products? Thats just retarded

Itunes can SMC.

Mine has decided that it wants to have preference over what I listen to. It is stealing entire albums from the ipod, along with random songs. It refuses to sync what is selected and it refuses to co-operate with videos.

Thank fuck for Android!

I use Winamp to sync my ipod (and a few other mp3 players for that matter). It works very well and is very good at organizing media. One of the best media players out there for music I reckon.

Interesting timing
