Q: iphone 6 plus crashing itunes in Windows 7

Can't synch new iphone 6 plus (64G) with itunes 12.0.1.26 in Windows 7. 

iphone 5 synched just fine to computer backup prior to purchasing iphone 6 plus--two hours later it's crashing...

"iTunes has stopped working

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is

available."

I'm guessing this is an Apple glitch needing an Apple fix?
