Installing Bonjour (Windows)

The Bonjour service enables automatic discovery of computers, devices, and services on your local network.

If Bonjour is not installed or the service is not running, FileMaker Pro can't discover remote hosts on your local network. Without Bonjour, you must manually enter the host names or IP addresses for remote hosts on your local network.

If the installer doesn't detect a supported version of Bonjour, it prompts you to install Bonjour.

If you need to install Bonjour manually:

  1. Open the FileMaker Pro installation folder.

  2. Open the Files folder, then open the Bonjour folder.

  3. Double-click the Bonjour64 (64-bit) icon.

  4. Follow the onscreen instructions.
