Simply download the x32 version from here using your 32 bit browser and then get the 64 bit installer from here.

run the 32 bit installer and then open the 64 bit installer with WinRAR or a similar program and extract Bonjour.msi and AppleMobileDevices.msi (or something like that).

open Add or Remove Programs (usually in Control Panel or can b accessed from Set Program Access Defaults link on the start menu) and uninstall Bonjour

Run the 2 programs u just took out of the 64 bit installer (bonjour and applemobiledevices)

Now u should have iTunes working with iPhone support however to get CD burning you must download GEARS 64 bit drivers from here.

iTunes latest two versions (current 9.0, also previous version before I tried upgrading)
Windows Vista 64-bit

I've been able to connect my phone to iTunes and download pictures in Windows, but after a recent Windows Update, OR a recent iTunes upgrade, OR a recent Norton 360 update (I don't know which was the killer) I could no longer see the iPhone in Windows OR iTunes. Nothing could. I couldn't transfer music, couldn't transfer photos.

I did a restore on the iPhone and upgraded iTunes this week and finally got a solid connection between iTunes and the iPhone. But still couldn't "see" it in Windows Vista Explorer.

After reading and reading and reading, and finding no solution (and I tried shutting off User Control, tried shutting down the Firewall, and tried reinstalling iTunes, and multiple configurations), I also tried resinstalling the drivers, looking on my computer for usbaapl.sys (not there), I started looking on the web for it - but I'm always nervous about downloading drivers unless from the specific vendor's site), I finally did a search for "usbaapl" - and FOUND a driver in c:\windows\system32\drivers\ called "usbaapl64.sys".

On a fluke, I created a copy of the file, and renamed it "usbaapl.sys" (since that file did NOT exist on my machine previously).

Voila. I can now see the phone in Windows Vista Explorer. Someone at Apple isn't talking to someone at Microsoft, I think. Microsoft Vista x64 (with all current updates) is still looking for usbaapl.sys - iTunes is now shipping with usbaapl64.sys.

It does not so it is simply compatible with "Vista." Look at the screenshot at the top. It lists 6 different versions of Windows that it is compatible with. Does that list include Windows Vista 64-bit? No, it absolutely does not.

@Jeff,

Just an FYI, 99.99 percent of PC users don't use 64 bit Windows and I highly doubt anything more than 2% of Windows Vista 64bit has been sold. Apple, just like every other software company, frankly doesnt care. If Apple can build full 32 and 64 bit support in the same version of Leopard then why cant Microsoft. ]]>Jun 30th 2007 6:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/

The best matching OS for the elegant and revolutionary iPhone is the also elegant and the most user friendly OS X.

The list doesn't say Vista 32-bit either, it just says Vista. I guess I assumed if I was running Vista, and this says it works with Vista, then it would work.

Wow, thanks. Cause we totally wanna drop an extra couple grand on a system with mediocre performance, crappy graphics, hardly any games, etc. - just to run Windows (or in this case, just to run some iPhone software). My Windows PC can already run Windows, thank you. Maybe if I were an average person that was incapable of understanding how to run Windows/Linux, I would consider a Mac because they are dumbed down for the "common folk".

Oh and about 32-bit vs. 64-bit... It is common fact that not everything works on a 64-bit system. That's why I chose 32-bit over 64-bit... It's just not supported enough yet, and the downsides outweigh the benefits. However, I am very glad to see that more people are running 64-bit, and perhaps I will switch over in the near future. But things like this just keep making me glad I am still with my 32-bit OS.]]>Jul 1st 2007 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/I have vista 64 bit , I bought Iphone ,and it didn't work but . it was a pain, but all I had to do was install the 32 bit version(that came with the 64)and It worked.

MS lazy with legacy code, maybe. But the bottom line of this matter is that apple needs to write software for an OS not expect 2 different OS to operate the same way when they use different fundamental hardware.

More testing and development should have been done by apple to prevent a lack of support this big.]]>Jul 9th 2007 10:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/
OK, first of all you are obviously NOT a programmer, nor (at a guess) even a moderately sophisticated user. So it's now the fault of the OS that a crappy coded application won't work? Why not blame MS (or Apple for that matter) for your crappy salary, or the fact that you don't have a girlfriend? Talk to me when you've written an OS - or even compiled your own Linux kernel - about who's fault it is when a 3rd party application doesn't work.

Let me guess - when MS Office for Mac didn't work - that was MS's problem... not that ITunes doesn't work on windows... oh that must be MS's fault again. You guys need to just buy consoles and have your computers taken away from you IMHO.

The reason there are 2 separate versions of Vista one for 32-bit and one for 64-bit is because Microsoft is creating a new ecosystem for Windows under the 64-bit version. 32-bit Vista's only purpose is to be compatible with more legacy software and hardware. For new software and hardware products to be certified for Vista it has to be compatible for both 64- and 32-bit. Windows Vista 64-bit will not allow software or hardware drivers to be installed that is not first certified. This move was to ensure the security and stability of hardware and software running with 64-bit windows. In Vista 32-bit you can still install uncertified drivers and software.

Apple is probably not supporting 64-bit windows right now, and probably won't until after leopard is released, to try to hinder 64-bit windows adoption in order to maintain that it's the first "mainstream" OS to fully support 64-bit computing. Just like apple warned customers to not upgrade to vista right away because iTunes doesn't work quite yet. But apple doesn't have as strict a security as Windows 64-bit. And of course they do that to look more appealing to customers saying something like, "look at us! we are wide open, less secure than windows, and don't have any enforcement of our license agreements, so addopt mac! We have too small a marketshare for hackers to know that we're alive!"

so you say, "Now we know." and I say, "and knowing is half the battle"]]>Jun 30th 2007 4:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Aug 28th 2007 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Jun 30th 2007 12:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Jun 30th 2007 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Jun 30th 2007 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Jun 30th 2007 1:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/Jun 30th 2007 2:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/iphone-not-supported-under-64-bit-windows-xp-or-vista-oops/
