How do I install Bonjour on Windows-7-64bit?

I installed Itunes with the 64-bit installer for my Windows-7 machine.


Yet Bonjour did not install.


I have done Repair and I have done Uninstall and a new install.


No Bonjour, thsu Itunes complains.


What do I do now?

Windows 7, win-7-Pro 64bit dual

🙂 Many thanks.


In your Start menu, right-click "Computer" (or "My Computer" if using XP) and select "Manage".

Expand "Services & Applications".

Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)

Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".

In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Automatic":

... and click OK.


Restart the PC. Do you still get the message about the service being disabled?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.


The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.


Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.


The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Bonjour, won't install normally.


If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.
