The correct order to install these MSI's is:

With iTunes Apple ships two 'support' MSI. The 'Application Support' msi has the core files for 'Application Support' within iTunes. - AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (3.2.0.47)

Bonjour, also known as zero-configuration networking, enables automatic discovery of computers, devices, and services on IP networks. Bonjour uses industry standard IP protocols to allow devices to automatically discover each other without the need to enter IP addresses or configure DNS servers. Specifically, Bonjour enables automatic IP address assignment without a DHCP server, name to address translation without a DNS server, and service discovery without a directory server. Bonjour is an open protocol which Apple has submitted to the IETF as part of the ongoing standards-creation process.
