Windows 8 is not compatible with any version of iTunes yet available to the public.
that is what I was afraid of, thanks
So how is Windows on Ipad working out for you?
Funny I just got off the phone with a Senior Rep at Apple who clearly and concisely stated.
Apple iTunes 11 Does Not Support Windows 8.
He stated that there is currently nothing in the works to support Windows 8.
Would be even funnier if u contacted Microsoft about it.
I did contact Microsoft they said it was Apples fault.
Not trying to start any argument here, but if you would have checked the requirements for using an iPad with iTunes on a computer, you would have seen that Windows 8 is not supported.
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
I appreciate your info Demo.
I have Windows 8 and am running itunes 10.7 just fne on it. It recognizes my iPad 2 just fine. I'll have to try with the new Mini once it arrives.
And Apple's website clearly states iTunes is compatile with Windows 8

iTunes for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
You are missing the point.
I didn't say that iTunes is not supported on the PC running Windows 8. I did not say that users are not having some success with an iPad and iTunes if they are running Windows 8.
I am saying that using an iPad with iTunes on a PC running Windows 8 is not officially supported by Apple in the iPad technical specifications.
Read the technical specs here.
Ahhh, fair enough, my mistake.
Hi, how did you doo that? I wold like to install w8 on ipad too.
You canot install Windows 8 on an iPad. You can install iTunes on a Windows 8 computer, but at the time this was posted, support for Windows 8 was non existant, so iPads and iPhones would not be detected in certain circumstances. Some cases like mine had no issues. My iPad was detected fine and I could sync perfectly fine. but other's could not get the devices to be picked up.
This in no way implies you can install Windows 8 on an iPad. I'm not sure if "fromsouth" was trying to be funny, or he missed the point entirely.
what point did i miss ? was that your point that Demo clarified for you? Would you like me to clarify anything for you?

You "fromsouth" were asking how Windows was working on his iPad. Since there's no way to install Windows 8 on an iPad, I thought you may have been trying to be funny, or completely missed the point about what the OP was trying to accomplish.
That's all.
