If you look at the Tech Spec tab it say it only supports XP and Vista

ya but so do a lot of other programs that work on 7

 

[YoungChrisG]

Lol true. I know on Vista there's a compatability mode to run some programs. Can you do that on 7?

 

[visualplastik]

So do you have itunes or your droid or how does that work? Don't really love the standard player so looking for the best options.

When installing right click on the file and select install with compatibility mode. Then select Vista SP1 and then install it should work from there.

Is there a SP2 option? The Specs tab said it supported SP2. I don't know if that matters though.

I got it installed.

After the first time, I got an error every time I tried starting it, so I ran the installation file again and it gave me the option to "repair" and it works fine now.

 

[peterr22]

ok, i was able to do it with compatibility mode/ Vista SP2...thanks!

it's a sync program, so you will still use whatever player on the droid you want to, this will just help you get the music onto the droid from your computer.

Tunewiki is a great player, check it out free version on the market. As for sync Doubletwist is good, it even converts files as it syncs, so they are playable on your Droid.

Yeah you can choose the compatibility for installing. This should make it work. I hope everyone got it installed who needs it. I personally don't use Itunes so I just copy and pasted right over and it was done.
