I have been using Microsoft Windows Vista 64-bit Ultimate for 6 months. It is running on my Intel Dual-Core with 1.6 GHz. I was a Windows XP Professional user. I have had my Microsoft Windows XP more than 5 years and it was time for a big update. My iTunes was running fine on my Windows XP but I wanted to update to Vista 64-bit Ultimate anyway.
On my old system with Window XP I could use my iTunes without any problem, because it was working well on my system. But after I installed my new Windows Vista 64-bit, I found out, that I have to say adios to my iTunes.
Everything was looking good with Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit. All my hardware were working fine, all my software like AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, Photoshop, Adobe Macromedia products but there was a big issue with my iPod. I could not update my music on my iPod Nano.
Then I decided to look for an answer how I can run my iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit Ultimate. I have found many ways but any of them did work for me. After all I decided to contact Apple to find out, if they have any solution for iTunes problem on Windows Vista 64-bit.
You cannot believe me, they answered to my question and they told me what I have to do to run my iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit ultimate edition. They told me that Microsoft Windows Vista-64 has a problem in his core and iTunes cannot install Visual Basic Script –VBScript-. I was shocked because Windows Vista 64-bit has already preinstalled all scripting components.
They told me the reason of this issue could be because of VBScript.dll. When you are installing iTunes on your Vista 64-bit machine, it cannot register your VBScript.dll. They told me I have to register that file manually. I did it exactly how they described it to me and finally I was happy again and I could update my iPod Nano.
Here is the solution for running iTunes on Windows Vista 64-bit
1- Log in as administrator
2- Got to the Start Menu
3- Click on all Programs
4- Open Accessories
5- Right click on Command Prompt
6- Click on –Run as Administrator-
7- Type: “cd C:\Windows\SysWOW64″ and click Enter
8- Type: regsvr32 vbscript.dll and click Enter
9- Restart your computer and enjoy your iTunes and iPod
Actually Apple has updated his iTunes and you don´t need any more to do all these steps. But still there is a problem between QuickTime and Windows Vista 64-bit and hope they will solve this problem too.

I installed latest iTunes (64-bit version) on my Vista Ultimate Quad-Core with no problems at all.

Dear BLC,
Thank you for your comment. Yes they have right now a newer version for 64-bit Vista but it is not written in 64-bit code and still not perfect. It works well but they have still problem with QuickTime. Anyway We hope that they would fix all those issues.

Yes, it's true they don't have a "true" 64 bit version, the 32 bit versions install well none the less with the 64 bit installer. I don't have any problems with Quicktime, despite not liking the program that much.
