I can't get it to recognize the 64 bit version. Getting irritated. 

Sorry if it's obvious, but is EZdrummer x64 in a directory scanned by Sonar for plugs, and have you rescanned vsts?

As of last night, I uninstalled / reinstalled / downloaded the 64bit update / installed that /  but cant find any files that say EZDrummer 64bit. The ship has run aground. I will continue searching for my issues after work tonight.

Tracked mine down to Program files/cakewalk/Vstplugins.  It's called ezdrummer.dll - it doesn't mention the 64bit in its name.  The sounds etc. are in Program Files(x86)/Toontrack/EZDrummer.
 
Don't know if that helps..

Have a look at this page in my forum and see if it clears anything up for you.

I actually figured it out! The Internet is a wonderful thing, I just needed to find the secret file (that was the hard part) and steer it in the right direction. Up and running again in 64 bit mode. Thanks everyone for the help.

Before you get too happy, I'm hoping that you created a path to the file in SONAR and didn't drag and drop the file into a different folder.

Like a lot of these 64 bit installers EZdrummer doesn't see the C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Vstplugins folder and so will create it's own folder and install the 64bit dll file there instead. Usually something like C:\Program Files\Vstplugins\whatever. 

 
It's quite ok to simply move the dll file to the cakewalk vst folder and rescan. Alternately you can point cakewalks vst path to C:\Program Files\Vstplugins but I prefer the first method.

Thanks Dave, the path is there, the drum kit screen page says 1.3.1 64 bit at the bottom and I can drag the groove to the proper track like the way it used to be.

Glad you got it sorted.

This is the usual mistake people make.  All of the registry entries are still pointing where the Toontrack installers placed the DLL.  Now when you run the next TT update on EZD, it will likely plunk a new DLL back at that point and your Cakewalk directory version won't be updated unless you remember to drag and drop the new version of the DLL into the VSTplugins directory.  This is a workable situation but I've seen it bite people unexpectedly.
