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)

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

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.
