iTunes 9 on Windows 7 x64 Has Problems ...

Hi All,

This is VERY frustrating. I have installed the MS Windows 7 x64 Enterprise Eval (Supposedly the gold copy for eval). I installed iTunes 9 using the 64 bit installer. I can get it to install correctly and play music, so no problems with iTunes as a music player, but try and sync with an iPhone and there are all sorts of problems.

I have done the following:

1) Installed/De-installed iTunes about a million times
2) Put my iPhone on a powered USB hub
3) Plugged my iPhone into a USB hub on my computer

I can get iTunes to recognize my iPhone, but I sometimes get a set of different errors.

Sometimes iTunes won't recognize the iPhone. When I unplug it, Windows tells me that it could not install the "MTP USB Drivers". Don't know why, but that is what it says.

I can plug it in again and iTunes will recognize it, but it says:

iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because of an unknown error occurred (0xE8000065).

If I put my phone in recovery mode, iTunes indicates that the phone needs recovery and starts the process. After a while, it comes up with the unknown error again.

Sometimes it says could not sync with iPhone "".....

I've manually de-installed the Apple drivers and reinstalled. That hasn't worked.

I've run the install and software in Compatability mode for Vista.

I am my wits end.

Anybody out there with ideas? Should I downgrade iTunes? It appears as though version 9 might have some issues.
