Problem with iTunes 5 installation


Question

I just downloaded iTunes 5 and was going to update when I got an error during installation. Error 1920 stated that Bonjour service failed to start and asked me to check if i was Admin. which I am. Any help, maybe some dependencies that the bonjour service needs is disabled. :wacko:

no it will not complete installation and the only options are to retry starting the service which always fails with the same error or to cancel which cancels the whole installation.

i have tried installing numerous times and in safe mode but i couldn't get it to work.

***Could someone please open services.msc and right-click bonjour and tell its dependencies (i can't because it doesn't install)

1. Right click on "my computer" in the start menu

2. Click on "Manage"

3. In left hand panel click on "Services and Applications"

4 Then in the right hand panel double click "services"

5. Scroll down and make sure that the four following things are running and are set to automatic: 1) TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper 2)Windows Management Instrumentation 3)Windows Management Instrumentation Driver Extensions 4)WMI Performance adapter.

6. Make sure all 4 of those are running and set to automatic

7. Restart the computer.

8. After the restart, disable Norton internet security

9. Download the new itunes installer and run it.

10. This should work. Or at least it worked for me.

My wife's computer had the same problems. Eventualy I found the event viewer service was disabled which is at the start of a chain of dependant services that was causing the problem.

    • According to Microsoft, Cause: One of the drivers controlling the device notified the operating system that the device failed in some manner.   https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/error-codes-in-device-manager-in-windows-524e9e89-4dee-8883-0afa-6bca0456324e
    • This looks awesome, I will request access via Steam later this afternoon!
    • Personally, I’ve found that it’s usually worth investing in the infrastructure you don’t want to replace later, especially cabling. Running Cat6A (or better, depending on your needs) during an upgrade is relatively inexpensive compared to having to re-cable a few years down the road. For switches I try to balance current specs with realistic growth. If my budget allows it Ill choose switches with higher uplink speeds which leaves room for expanding later on, but I don’t necessarily overspend on access ports if the endpoints won’t benefit from them anytime soon. One lesson I’ve learned is that planning for scalability pays off. It’s much easier to add devices, VLANs, or higher-bandwidth workloads when your network infrastructure already supports it than to replace hardware later.  What is your budget like?
    • I hate the term, "future-proof." We saw it back in the 90's / 2000's, if not before. You cannot future-proof anything, since there is no definition of how far into the future you plan on prepping for. Best idea is to tell us what you currently have and what its use is at the moment, and we can then offer ideas about some areas that might need an upgrade and other areas that can be left alone.
    • I can agree that it is being used in a small capacity. I worked for a company where their engineers still used XP, and when asked why it was because their sensor software wasn't compatible with newer operating systems and the software was discontinued so they couldn't upgrade the software. Given that the sensors were still in use by companies, they had to continue using XP to support the sensor, otherwise the price to the company would have gone into the millions or billions. Our response was simple: Ok, you can keep the XP machine. But we're removing it from the network. "But then it can't access the Internet or folder shares!" Yup, kinda the point. If someone wants to continue using an unsecure OS they can do, I have no problem with that. But it should be isolated. Simple. I had a fight with a guy in the engineering department for weeks before he finally relented. But we digress.   What do I plan on doing to commemorate the anniversary? Nothing. I have fond memories of the OS, but at the end of the day it's just an OS. If I had some time I might see if I could install it on my Raspberry Pi for a laugh. But my reflex memory with today's OS ideas would probably get me frustrated and I'd uninstall it after 5 mins.
