Apple iTunes
Apple iTunes is a program to both play different types of media, but it is also required if you want to sync an iPhone with outlook in a corporate environment. you can get it [here]. It comes bundled with multiple sub programs. Some are desired and some are not. I will post below the minimum required ones to get a get iTunes working. It will include the iTunes, Quicktime and Apple Mobile Device Support.
Pre-Setup Process
The iTunes installer does not have a silent option. One must do the following to extract the msi's from the package.
* Download the setup file from apple. * Begin the setup process, but do not proceed any further. * Goto your Temp folder for your profile "C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Temp * Find the iTunes Temp folder there. (it will probably be random name, so sort by last modified time) * Copy multiple MSI packages to a directory for your choosing. * You can now stop the iTunes install.
Alternatively simply open the setup file with 7Zip and copy the individual msi files to your %SOFTWARE%\iTunes\version directory
I rename my packages to remove any spaces and or to shorten the name. My XML will reflect that, so keep that in mind
** NOTE **: Each sub-application has it's own version. When a new version for iTunes comes out, you will need to install all the applications on a test box and see which sub-applications have updated. You will find that most of the time it is just the iTunes msi that has a new revision and the others remain the same. Each one also has it's own uninstall command.
