iTunes 7.1 still not fully Vista compatible

Posted by Dennis Sellers Apple ico Mar 6, 2007 at 5:13pm

A new version of iTunes (7.1) released yesterday addresses a number of compatibility issues with Microsoft’s Windows Vista, but a few problems remain, notes CNET.

The updated version supports the upcoming Apple TV product and includes an improved album-sorting feature, but still doesn’t fully support Windows Vista. When Vista arrived at the end of January, Apple told Windows users that iTunes wasn’t yet ready for Vista because of compatibility issues.

In the most dire scenario outlined by Apple, users could corrupt their iPod simply by plugging it into a Vista PC running iTunes, CNET notes. Problems were also reported with playing back content purchased from the iTunes Store on Vista PCs, Apple said in early February.
