HT2250 I accidentally deleted Bonjour from my computer, is there a way to re-add it?

I have a very old, Dell Windows XP computer, that frequently runs out of space on the.. hard drive?? I don't know anything about computers... But it recommended I delete some softwares that were rarely used; so I did. I actually didn't know what Bonjour was until a few days later I opened up Itunes and all my songs were missing! Is there any way to get them back? There were thousands upon thousands of songs!!

Hello, coop965.
The best way to reinstall Bonjour, would be to uninstall iTunes, all of it's components and reinstall iTunes.  The article below will walk you through this process.

In regard to your missing media, if it is still missing after the reinstall see the article below.

    Accidentally deleted Bonjour from my computer.  iTunes will not open.  Running Windows XP. Help please.

    Uninstalling and then reinstalling your iTunes should also get your Bonjour reinstalled.
    For the reinstall, use an installer downloaded from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    ... or you could get it back via your Apple Software Update for Windows.
    If you'd prefer not to uninstall iTunes, try the following procedure.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the Bonjour.msi (or Bonjour64.msi) to do a standalone Bonjour install.

    Hello bigali,
    Your options are kinda limited. I would use this first:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and ...
    Then check here for the non-purchased items:

    Hi ilpchow,
    Ok, Undo does't work.
    Try Step 2:
    Menu > File > Revert To > Last Saved
    If that doesn't work, try the other suggestions.
    I hope you did Save sometime .

    If I have accidentally deleted imessages off my iphone is there a way for me to retrieve or undelete them?

    Did you create a backup, either to iTunes or iCloud, prior to this deletion?  If so, restore that backup to the device. If not, then the messages are not recoverable.

  • I accidentally deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved it. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open. Is there a fix for this without my Ipod?

    I accidently deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved the program. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open.Is there a eazy fix for this without using my Ipod? Ihave 6K songs in Itunes that I can't get to.
    Thank You
    T-BILL

    Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
    Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
    If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
    You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

  • I deleted iTunes from my PC, is there any way i can sync my phone to a newly downloaded iTunes without losing my music that wasn't purchased from iTunes?

    BACK-STORY
    I recently was given a new iPhone 4S from the Apple Store, I synced it to my PC when I got home and got everything back.I had to uninstall a download of windows 8.1 back to the original windows 8 in order to install an anti-virus software. The only way to uninstall Windows 8.1 is basically a factory reset, by doing so I lost everything that wasn't saved in cloud or external drive.I downloaded iTunes again, signed in and the only thing I could find was the music that I purchased from iTunes. I don't want to connect my phone to the iTunes I just downloaded,because I think I'm going to lose all the music that's already on there, minus the music I bought from iTunes. It's a lot of albums and it took me a while to collect them all too.
    WHAT I WOULD LIKE HELP WITH PLEASE
    Can I transfer the music on my phone to some type of storage?
    USB memory drive
    Cloud ex. Skydrive, Google Drive, Dropbox etc
    Store somewhere on my PC. (I know I can't sync from my iPhone to iTunes.)
    If it is at all possible to store the music that's already on my iPhone using another method,such as the ones I've mentioned or haven't,can I then transfer it to iTunes?
    If there is no way to save my iPhone's music library, then when I rebuild it is there a way to store it, that if the same thing was to happen I wouldn't have to go through this process?
    Also, any other tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ALL!!

    The syncing of music is one way, computer to phone. See this helpful document from a fellow user. Credit goes to the author.

  • I've accedently deleted music from my library, is there a way to revert this?

    I was managing a playlist on my itunes. I wanted to keep the same list but remove existing songs. I selected the songs and hit the delete button. I thought it asked me if i wanted to keep the music on my itunes, i thought i selected yes. But apprently i did not. I am wondering where is the delete folder stored for itunes. Or is there a way to undo this? I am missing a huge selection of songs. Any input would be nice.

    Thanks Kristopher4Mac,
    I did refer back to the all purchases in my itunes folder. Its hard to tell what is missing at the moment but it is not all downloaded. This playlist had close to 500 songs, right now i am only seeing 500. It is going to take sometime for me to realize what songs i'm missing. I just wondered if there was a folder in itunes that showed what was deleted.

  • HT201272 If I already downloaded my songs then accidentally deleted them from my computer, how can I redownload them? Itunes store shows them as downloaded and unless I go through and try and repurchase each song individually, it wont let me redownload. h

    How ccan I redownload my music to the same computer. Downloaded, then deleted, now i tunes won't let me redownload, because I already downloaded. If I go through and try and repurchase the songs it will download them for me but I don't want to have to do that 250 times.

    You need to delete the broken entries first, then the tracks will show up with the iCloud download symbols in your purchased histroy and IIRC you can download them all in one go.

    After you sync your music, picture, video, or document files between your computer and your BlackBerrydevice, if you delete a file or a collection of files, the following actions occur:

    Hey hkfoolman,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Go into BlackBerry Link and click on the BlackBerry and then click on Options.  Make sure you have Music, Pictures, Videos and Documents checkmarked for synchronization.  Once these are checked, try to remove the files.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.

  • Can I delete songs from my computer to free up space, using iTunes match?

    Hi,
    I love iTunes match, because it brings my entire music library to all my mobile devices without being limited by internal storage space.
    But, now I have the problem that my computer is running out of free HDD space due to my gigantic itunes library. 
    So, my question is:  Can I free up hard drive space by simply deleting files from my computer, and rely on iTunes Match to download/stream those songs that I want to play after I've deleted them?  It should work, right?
    This operation clearly relies on iCloud to host all of my songs, where iCloud becomes the 'master repository', rather than my computer.
    Has anyone been able to successfully operationlize this?
    Many thanks,
    Mark

    Actually, further to my last reply, I just played a song that wasnt located on my computer any longer (I deleted the file but left it in iCloud when prompted by iTunes).  The song has an iCloud icon next to it.  I double clicked it and it started playing.  When I opened up the info windon on this song, the Location says "iCould".  So, that leads me to believe that indeed we can delete the files from our master computer, and, stream them or download them from iCloud!  How great is this?  Can anyone coroborate this?  Cheers,  Mark

  • How can I move my iTunes movies from my computer to an external hard drive? After I copy them to the drive, do I just delete them from my computer? How will I be able to watch them again?

    Hi,
    I have a MacBook Air (July 2013) with the latest Mavericks OS X. I also have the lastest version of iTunes.
    My computer has very little memory left, so I wanted to free some up. When I looked, movies were taking up a considerable amount of space. I want to move them from my computer, but still be able to watch them if I want to later. I haven't purchased an external drive yet, because I didn't know what size to get. I also have a lot of Photoshop files that are taking up a lot of memory, so I might put some of those on too. Would you recommend a 1 TB one or bigger?
    Can you take me through the exact process of moving my iTunes movies to the external drive? I understand where to find the files (My Name<Music<iTunes Media<Movies), but am stuck from there. Do I simply drag them to the external drive and then delete them? Will this delete them from my iTunes library? How will I go about watching them again? I assumed that I would just plug the external hard drive in, click in the movie and watch. Is it this simple? I only want to move my movies, otherwise I would follow tutorials for backing up the library. Once you back up the movies, can you delete them from your computer?
    Thanks,
    Molly

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.
