Full FeediTunes 8 causes Windows Vista BSOD
A number of Windows Vista users are having problems with iTunes 8, causing the operating system to display a “Blue Screen of Death” when an iPod/iPhone is connected for syncing. Apple yesterday released a technical note suggesting that Windows Vista users should uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support, then restart their computer, and finally re-install iTunes 8. At the time of writing, it’s unknown what the exact error within Apple Mobile Device Support was causing the BSOD.
Macworld and ZDNet report that Apple has simply replaced the files associated with the Mobile Device Support (uspaapl.sys/ubaapl64.sys) with the ones that were in iTunes 7.7. There have been a lot of comments from frustrated users on the Apple Discussions forum, including some fairly amusing ones such as: “I love how Apple owns up to problems…IT’S NOT US! IT MUST BE YOU! OR MICROSOFT! OR YOUR MOUSE! OR YOUR CHAIR!”
