64 bit windows 7 and itunes problem

[DJM AutoWerkz]

I have installed windows 7 ultimate 64bit and when I plug my iphone to sync the itunes program will freeze or sometimes i get a unknown error if itunes is already open then i plug my iphone in?I tried with another iphone and same problem..I even uninstalled itunes,enbled hidden folders and deleted everything that apple installs and restarted computer and reinstalled itunes 9.02 64 bit and still same thing.

i used to have the same issue with vista 64
what i did and now this doesnt happen is
1.plug the cable into the usb
2.then plug your iphone into the cable
3.wait until your iphone starts charging ( u know its connected )
4.open itunes and let it recognise the iphone

since i used the method i now have no freeze issues

hope this helps

i have done all that still dont work.. Any other suggestions..
I did a google search and it seems this is a common problem but there is no fix.

Is there a 32bit and 64bit version of itunes for windows ???
I would look into that.

[DJM AutoWerkz]

I'm running Win 7 x64 with iTunes 64bit as well. It does say "iTunes.exe *32" in taskmanager.

I don't have any freezing problems, but a couple things you can check...make sure your chipset and USB drivers are uptodate. Also, make sure your iTunes repository does not have any filesystem corruption...run chkdsk.

Try disabling "itunes helper" its a process running in the background that auto detects ipods and iphones and than instructs itunes to open. When it is disabled it take care of freezing and memory issues. This will make the process much smother. plug your iphone in and wait until it says charging. Than close all other applications and open itunes. If the problem persist check your itunes library files in the actual iTunes folder. The library files could be damaged and that screws with all sorts of things.

Perhaps you have a permissions issue. If you've left Windows UAC enabled, make sure you run the iTunes installer as Administrator...right-click iTunes64Setup, select "Run as administrator".
