    Windows 7 x64 and Japanese characters in iTunes


    Hi all,

    I just noticed that iTunes in the x64 version of windows 7 doesn't display any japanese characters. Judging by the nature of the problem, I don't think it displays any foreign Unicode characters.

    I have my computer set up to properly display (and also type) japanese. I surf japanese websites all the time and for some reason iTunes refuses to do this. I tried sifting through the new preferences interface but can't find anything with regard to unicode support for applications, or anything related to it for that matter.

    Any input regarding this issue is greatly appreciated, even if it regards a completely different language.

    thanks.

    lol. I just restarted my computer and noticed the characters started working again. Look like it was just a temporary OS-related problem. Thanks Johnny for your input nonetheless.
