Bonjour.msi is missing

while updating itunes, system gives message that bonjour.msi not found.

you should uninstall the rest of the components of itunes via article: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software ...
you wont be able to do Bonjour
then:
Go to support.microsoft.com/fixit
In section 2 click on: Install or upgrade software or hardware
Then click on the title in section 3: Fix problems with programs that cannot be installed or uninstall

When I try to download iTunes I this error message "an old version of Bonjour cannot be deleted" and when I try it won't let me saying that the bonjour.msi is missing.

I am trying to download iTunes, it gets so far and then I get an error message that says that an old Bonjour cannot be removed, it goes on a bit further and says and old Apple Software Update cannot be removed; and then it says that the installation was interrupted and to try again.
I have gone to the control panel and tried to remove all traces of Bonjour, Apple, Quicktime but the two will not be removed it says that their .msi file and missing and to try to find them. I have even reinstalled the programs from the ProgramData files in an attempt to repair or replace the missing files but I still get the same answer.
Can anyone help me? I need iTunes up and running to sync with my phones.
Thank you for your help,
Barbara

Hi Barbara,
I had a similar problem recently and using the "more like this" feature I discovered an answer. To a problem posed by Holo7, who like myself was a newbie on this platform, b noir proposed a solution to Holo7's problem that also worked with my problem. It involves downloading a version of MS Windows Instal Cleanup and using it to completely remove all traces of the old version.
If you look at my problem (follow OldGit66) and the link to Holo7's problem then you will find b noir's answer which I think may help you. I am new around here so you might want to wait for one of the higher status correspondents.
Regards
John

Getting bonjour msi path error so i cant update itunes

I can't install itunes upgrade because it says the path bonjour .msi is missing. Help please. I have already did a registry fix and clean which helped with quicktime and itunes msi error but not bonjour. I can't uninstall bonjour or delete its files from c drive

Like you I had the same problem updating to iTunes 10.5. I happened to read another post on this forum on the same problem and with some simple advise I was able to update to 10.5. Apparantely the 'Apple software update' program is causing the problem. I removed it by downloading a program called 'Windows Install CleanUp Utility' from softpedia.com. Installed the program and scrolled down to apple software update and clicked 'remove'. Then I installed itunes 10.5. I could not believe how easy it was! Now I can finally update to IOS 5 for my iphone 4.

Bounjour msi is missing and will not uninstall

bonjour will not uninstall - bonjour.msi is missing

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Why won't the bonjour.msi load?

I can't get iTunes to load on my laptop, which is older, and it seems like the Bonjour program is one of the issues. Can you help?

Doublechecking on the precise nature of the problem here before proceeding, andila.
Are you trying to update to a newer version of iTunes, but when you try to do the update you get an error message saying that the bonjour.msi is missing?
Or is something different going on?

Cannot download, delete, update Itunes. Missing Bonjour.msi

Cannot download, delete or update my itunes. I'm missing bonjour.msi. There has to be a way to fix this without purchasing those fixit programs or rebooting my whole system.

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Bonjour .msi 1.0.5 missing - urgent

Hello,
I need to download Bonjour.msi 1.0.5.
In Technical Note 2210 (http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2007/tn2210.html) Apple says you get the Bonjour.msi on the Bonjour download page (this is where I got 1.0.4) but there is only the bonjour.exe but not the bonjour.msi
We need to ship a product and would like to include the newest version of bonjour - otherwise we have to ship with 1.0.4. Please help!
Bests,
Stefan

Now I've located the file 'Bonjour.msi' and I've tried to point out it's location (C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\Bonjour.msi) but the installer says, that this is not a valid installation-package for Bonjour.
It tells me to choose Bonjour.msi in a valid location, but as far as I can see, this is the Bonjour.msi that the Apple Software Updater-app downloaded itself!
BTW, I have tried installing with anti-virus software turned off, just to make sure, it isn't the spyware/adware security, that prevents installation.

My XP machine is unable to load iTunes 10.5.1. It gets about halfway loaded then says it can't find Bonjour.msi. However, that file is on the computer. I tried loading the Bonjour.msi from another computer but it came up with the same message.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
