Wait on Upgrading to Windows Vista says Apple
Apple has released a small repair tool that solves one compatibility issue between its jukebox software iTunes and Microsoft’s new operating system Windows Vista, but says PC users are better off waiting for the next version of iTunes before upgrading to Vista.
The latest version of iTunes, 7.02, may work with Vista on many typical PCs, but Apple knows of a few incompatibility problems, including some that are serious. For instance, users who remove their iPod from their computer using the “safely remove hardware” feature in Vista may corrupt the contents of their iPod, Apple said. In addition, users may not be able to make changes to their iPod settings, synch contacts and calendars with the iPod, or play songs they’ve bought online from the iTunes Store.
