(method 3) still works with iTunes 8.1.2.6 / Windows Vista

One remark, when iTunes is configured at first runtime it will ‘complain’ that the Bonjour feature has not been installed. This is not an issue if you’re not using the iPod remote functionalities or Apple TV. Otherwise there is also a Bonjour.msi installer file in the directory with the extracted content. Probably you can install the Bounjour service the same way like this from the command line (again in Vista as admin): msiexec.exe /i Bounjour.msi /quiet

Nice tutorial! I’ve confirmed this to work with iTunes 8: extract and run msiexec.exe /i iTunes.msi /quiet /norestart

I starting making iTunes switchless installers.

They are customized to not run ituneshelper, ipodservice and other things.

For those that are interested, i posted the download links in my site.

Hi all,
In my previous message i was incomplete, i also did NOT install the QuickTime.msi
I fixed it. Just shut down iTunes, start Outlook, shut down Outlook, start iTunes again and it works!
Thanks again,

Hi All,
Thanks so far! I have installed all but iTunesSetupAdmin.exe. Now I have a iPhone and I would like to sync it in iTunes but Outlook does not show up in iTunes.
Any tips?
Thanks.
