iPod + Vista = Compatibility!

05.09.07 - 01:55pm

It’s here! Via the Windows Vista Team Blog, Nick White has announced an update that finally makes Vista compatible with the iPod, “The release is for users worldwide and works with the latest version of Apple iTunes to correct an issue that caused some iPods to become corrupted when ejecting them using Windows Explorer or the “Safely Remove Hardware” function in the System Tray.

“The long and short of it is this: Apple and Windows have partnered together to ensure a great experience in using Windows Vista with iTunes and the iPod, and both companies recommend you download this update.”

The fix will become available via a Windows Update that will be released on your desktop May 22nd. Until then if you own an iPod and Vista (is that an oxymoron?) then you must go to Microsoft’s website to download it.
