I used the same (albeit slightly modified) instructions and got iTunes 8 to install. I grabbed iTunes 8 via this link http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/iTunes8/061-4747.20080909.Crkr2/iTunes864Setup.exe and altered the Launch condition value to 501 with Orca and it's running fine.
How do you open the itunes setup 64 exe file in orca, it only asks for msi and such, gives me an error on exe. Thanks
You have to unpack the exe installer with 7zip (which I snobbily suggest you have installed anyway, as it's a free and more streamlined freeware alternative to Winzip and it's ilk) and then use Orca to alter the iTunes64.msi.
Get the 8.01 installer here, BTW: http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/iTunes8/061-5556.20081002.Aw234/iTunes80164Setup.exe

No dice either way. Apple is getting to be very similar to Microsoft in that they put out a device or program that is seriously lacking.
You know you can just delete the launch condition table completely.
The MSI will still work.
The launch condition msi table specifies what OS the msi will and will not run on, deleting it will allow it to run on all OS. Whether the application works though, is another matter.

I have gone throug the steps. When I run the modified Itunes installer iTunes.msi I get an error message (2229) and have to quit the installer.
Please help
Please help
I´m listening ...
Got the same problem here....
Error message (2229)

Error message (2229)
2229 has been worked around at PlanetAMD64 by user “arth” over at the forum:
“I got an error when trying to install, error code 2229. To solve the problem I dropped the LauchnConditions table and in InstallExecuteSequence and InstallUISequence tables deleted the LaunchConditions action. After that save the MSI file and close ORCA”

Thank you so much for this guide. I now have iTunes and my iPhone working on my Gateway XP 64-bit laptop!
WARNING! If iTunes offers to update your iPhone software don't do it on a XP 64 platform! I used the guide linked here to get my phone to sync with my XP 64 bit machine and basically it wipes the software off your phone and then tries to update it at which point the computer will no longer recognize the phone. It no longer shows up as a digital imaging device or anything. Very frustrating. I'm going to try updating it on an older machine or maybe try to find someone with a mac so I can at least get the stupid thing to make calls again. Literally, my phone is a brick right now because Apple refuses to write software for 64 bit windows.
Well impressed with the article - needed a few tweaks to deal with the latest revison of iTunes - the 64bit version of QuickTime refused point blank to install initially - even after using the same tweaks recommended for iTunes.
To work around this I installed the 32bit verion of QT, followed this with iTunes64 and overinstalled the 64 bit version of QT - works like a charm!
BTW I have the touch variant but it still managed to import all my purchases and all seems hunky dory

All right guys... I tried my best to get all this to work, and got as far as editing/removing the Launch Conditions on every .msi file, running and installing:
AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
GearSoft_Driver_Installer_x86_x64.exe
xiph-qt-win32-0.1.5.exe
BUT... every time I edited, or even downloaded a working edited version of: iTunes64.msi, it would start, I uncheck the desktop icon option, and hit Next, ALWAYS to find an error saying the system was not modified, and an error occurred. So, frustrated as all heck.. I just went and downloaded the 32-bit itunes, installed it (despite the version mismatch warning it gave), in junction with the GERA Soft drivers etc etc... and it FINALLY installed iTunes 8.2 on my XP x64 bit PC!

Cheers! The method on yukichigai worked well for me even with iTunes 9.0.0.70. As jh said, you just have to do the same thing for the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi as you do for the iTunes64.msi.
One problem I've found so far with the above method is that iPhone firmware updates don't seem to work. When I tried, I got an Add New Hardware wizard which I couldn't find any drivers to satisfy, and subsequently ended up with a bricked iPhone
From what I could tell, the iPhone needs a different driver when it is in Recovery mode (for some sort of rawer and/or more low level access, maybe?), which x64 doesn't seem to support. I don't know much about drivers, but I'm guessing that normal access through iTunes relies on a simple 32 bit driver that runs fine on x64, but to get down and dirty at the low level requires a specific x64 driver that doesn't exist (only a Vista 64 bit one does, and it's not compatible with x64).
Anyway, no major harm done as I managed to unbrick my iPhone with iRecovery
Just something for all us unlucky x64 people to be careful of!

I got itunes to work on my xp x64 but my ipod will not sync. i went into device manage and all that but still nothing. after spending the $ on an ipod you think apple would do something for its customers. Any suggestions?
