- One of the features is XP and Vista x64 support, you must download the right installer, visit the download page on either OS (don't have to use 64bit IE) and it will give you the right download.

- Thank you for that information. I downloaded it using Firefox, and I got the 32bit version. Revisited the page using IE7, and now it offers me the 64bit download. Someone didn't program something right (for a change).

Actually it is working as intended because Apple is using the browser info to see what OS is installed, if they used a different way it may work for either Windows, honestly Apple should have bundled both versions in the same package (I believe the drivers are the only difference because iTunes.exe is still only 32bit according to task manager) and have a single download that you didn't need to use IE with. Firefox doesn't report the WOW64 string the IE 32bit spits out when queried. I wish Apple would provide direct links instead of the script they use to initiate the download, I'm trying to see if I can get the direct URL for the 64bit download.

- It is an awful program in my opinion. The fact it manages to lag at whatever it does just gets under my skin so much. I'm assuming you have a differing opinion of it and for what it does it must suit your needs which I can understand.
I just dislike the program to the level I need to leave idiotic comments

- Yeah, it lags some and has some memory problems, but I find it's music organization and interface to be more organized and more accessible than WMP or Winamp. foobar2000 is very nice, it's just too much of a hassle trying to download plugins and configuring everything to get a decent interface.

At least you're honest. I don't like it for the same reasons you gave.

- I see this supports Vista x64, but does it support the iPod Touch as well on Vista x64?

- I downloaded 7.5 from Apple and updated to 7.6, so do I still have the 32-bit version? Will I have to reinstall?

- Any mention of the iPod Shuffle madness being sorted out?
My buddy (CEO of his company) handed out 1gb iPod Shuffles to his employees and they all went home, installed iTunes, and watched as their Christmas gifted Shuffles proceeded to not work.
Kinda funny kinda really sad/pathetic.

- Well, I just downloaded the x64 bits version, extracted the installer to a folder (using WinRAR to extract the .exe) and checked the .msi files... They all try to install into "Program Files (x86)"! Is this a native x64 app? I don't think so. I think they only added "compatability" with x64 Windows... :/
The reason I'm writing about this is to have native x64 .mov splitter so that x64 applications will be able to use it.

- I was wondering that myself. I decided to install it in "Program Files" for the sake of it, but I can sync with my iPod Touch in 64-bit now...couldn't do that in 32-bit. I hope they compile a native 64-bit too, maybe in 7.6.x or 7.7 - but please Apple, do it
