iPod on Vista Standard Account

by totosquirt Sep 30, 2007 4:47AM PDT

Would I be able to update my iPod and do other things in the Standard Account of Vista? Or should I continue to use my iPod in the Administrator account?

"Standard account holders see a slightly different message that commands them to fetch an Administrator account holder to type in a password."

You'll still want to have that admin account and password since Vista will pepper you even more with UAC dialogs.
