Apple iPhone and Windows Vista - Compatibility Issues?

Posted by Will on Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

Apple iPhone may not be compatible with Windows VistaWindows Vista, the highly anticipated update to Microsoft's Windows XP, had iPod owners up in arms over compatibility issues. It seems Apple didn't see fit to endow the latest Microsoft Windows OS with the ability to sync with an iPod. That's sad and all, but there's a more pressing question. Will the Apple iPhone be compatible with Microsoft's Windows Vista platform? Or will the excitement of getting your hands on that brand-new iPhone quickly die when you find that you can't sync it with your Windows Vista-powered PC?

Interestingly, there is no specific (or indirect) mention of the new Windows OS in the Apple iPhone's minimum system requirements:
Mac: Mac with a USB 2.0 port, Mac OS X 10.4.8 or later
PC: Windows PC with a USB 2.0 port and Windows XP Home or Professional (Service Pack 2)

Notice that there is no "or later" provision made for the Windows platforms, whereas the iPhone will support Apple's Mac OS X 10.4.8 or later.




Big deal...nothing is compatible with Windows Vista.
