Im sorry I know most of the people here are using Mac, but does anybody know if there's an older version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows XP Service Pack 1 and can manage an iPhone as well? Thanks so much in advance!

Like yoh_hectic said, upgrade your XP to SP3. It simply won't work on SP1. Better, upgrade to vista if you don't want to contemplate compatibilities.

If you wan to be on the safe side you may try SP2 on your XP, besides SP3 are just compilations fo bug fixes and updates from SP1 and SP2...

Yep, update to service pack 3, or if you're conservative, Service Pack 2, then go to Autopatcher (http://www.autopatcher.com) to download the autopatcher utility that will automatically download further updates, add-ons and enhancements for WinXPSP2.

Don't you love it when people in their infinite wisdom take it upon themselves to decide what is best for you and ignore what you want/need. ie "upgrade to SP2 dude". There must be an obvious reaon why you need to stick with SP1 so instead of just providing him with info that probably WON't help him I've taken it upon myself to give him the info that WILL help him.
The latest version of iTunes that works with XP SP1 is itunes v7.1.1. It can be found at the following site.

@sohoman, will iTunes 7.1.1 work with an iPhone? I don't think so. As listed on apple.com, the minimum system requirements (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1323) to use an iPhone or iPod Touch on Windows is iTunes 7.7 or later.

And BTW, the same page lists Windows XP SP2 as a requirement.

I think every little program out there requires Windows XP Service Pack 2 and the thread starter did not mention that he has to stick to SP1..
