No iPhone For 64-Bit Windows

Posted by kdawson on from the very-fine-print dept.

Mizled writes "After buying a new iPhone yesterday and bringing it home to sync and activate it, I found out that Windows 64-bit is not supported. Neither XP 64-bit nor Vista 64-bit works with the iPhone. I called the Apple support line and the rep said I needed to downgrade my computer from a 64-bit operating system. I also posted about my concerns on the Apple iPhone discussion forums, but my post was quickly removed."

    People also seem to be having difficulties synching their Zunes to 64 bit OSX, but I'd guess that that's Apple's fault.

    Pffffft.

    Ain't it great when the mod proves the point!? The mods that you got were justly deserved. You were acting like a crybaby, whining and complaining, accusing a poster of being a crybaby, just because he has issues with the stuff he bought. Now you're being a crybaby again, this time whining about the mods you got. Try to avoid being such a crybaby.

    Of course I, posting like this, explaining to you how it works, will deserve an Offtopic mod, or maybe even a Flamebait. Too bad. But unlike you, I'll take it like a man.

    Vista is a downgrade from XP.
