Alongside OS X 10.11.4 El Capitan, Apple has released an iTunes 12.3.3 update, introducing support for the iPhone SE and iPad Pro. Following the update, those who purchase a 9.7-inch iPad Pro or an iPhone SE will be able to sync their devices with their computers once they are available for purchase.

In a recent interview, Apple iTunes chief Eddy Cue promised Apple would introduce a new version of iTunes with an improved Apple Music interface, but new Apple Music features are not included in the release notes so it's likely that iTunes update will be coming at a later time.

Today's 12.3.3 iTunes update can be downloaded from the Mac App Store.

great it is a new world of apple
 
Same here on my Windows 10 PC (or perhaps they changed the display scaling?). Also, sometimes I see only the "top shelf" on the store pages, and the scroll bars don't show up properly when hovering the mouse under scrolling fields. Glitchy. The Mac version doesn't have these problems here.
Update: They indeed seem to have changed the display scaling in the Windows version of iTunes. If you are using display scaling on Windows 10 (i.e. you have changed the text size to more than 100% in the display settings because you have a high DPI monitor), you may not be able to correctly select items and scrollbars on the iTunes store pages. To work around this issue, right click on iTunes.exe, and uncheck the option "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" under "Compatibility". This will make text look a bit fuzzy, but at least the store pages now work as expected again.
 
As posted elsewhere, product page for the new iPad Pro lists it as requiring iTunes 12.4, so it has to come out before March 31.

Well, no. Obviously not. Why do the release notes then say that 12.3.3 adds support for the new iPad Pro? I believe Apple planned to release iTunes 12.4 after it's event, but somehow it got delayed, and they had to release 12.3.3 instead.

Has anybody checked if the iCloud sync still replaces songs with other versions or other songs altogether?
I'm still having the issue where iTunes Match randomly matching explicit songs with new once. This has been happening since iTunes Match' original release. It's annoying me beyond believe that after all this time they still haven't addressed the issue.

an iTunes 12.3.3 update has been planned if you look at the requirements for iPhone SE. iPad pro is different with iTunes 12.4
 
Well, he talked about a "refreshed version" of iTunes (whatever that means to begin with is up in the air) alongside OS X El Capitan v10.11.4. That's literally what the MacRumors article said. So why are you dragging another hypothetical update that's even further in the future into this? For better or worse the update yesterday is all we got alongside v10.11.4. Whatever happens later on together with a future OS X version, El Capitan or otherwise, is irrelevant. Apple talked about something happening with v10.11.4.
Not sure why you are being so obtuse. You clearly didn't listen to the interview where they were being very transparent about a forthcoming iTunes refresh to address longstanding complaints and specifically said it would come with 10.11.4. That obviously hasn't happened yet, and now people are complaining about it. Apple is too transparent, this is what happens.
 
This update removed the ability to transfer Pictures from the Photos library to iDevices. Just noticed this last night when trying to set up my iPad Pro and confirmed it on my iPhone. There is only an option to select a folder with pictures to transfer and unable to select the Photos app where all my pictures are stored.

Hopefully this is a bug and not an attempt to force me into the iCloud Photo Library which would require me to pay for storage.
 
Anyone having issues with 12.3.3 not loading with the new El Capitan update? I just get a bouncy icon.......and have to force quit the application.

People are complaining because an overhaul of iTunes is years overdue. Users have been giving Apple feedback about major issues with the application for ages. The company launched a half-assed paid cloud service (iTunes Match) which today still suffers from largely the same issues as it did on launch day. And that's what Apple primarily does these days: Release new features/services riddled with bugs which are only partially addressed at a very slow rate. The company has promised improvements before but thus far very little has changed. That's what at the root of these complaints.

If the critical issues with iTunes didn't exist for as long as they have, people also wouldn't be longing so much for the "refresh" nor would there be any rush for it to be released.

Apparent you're unable to see that yourself.

Obviously they WILL be releasing a 32 bit version of iTunes for iOS 9.3 and iPhone 5SE and iPad Pro for Windows XP. Haven't found the link yet but I'm sure it's coming.

Obviously they WILL NOT be releasing a 32 bit version of iTunes for iOS 9.3 and iPhone 5SE and iPad Pro for OSX so the rest of us will remain on iOS 8.

Hummm. I wonder why everyone is not upgrading to iOS 9? Dah!

What?

[doublepost=1459249044][/doublepost]Long standing bug of videos not playing still exists. None of my movies, videos, TV shows, etc play in iTunes…STILL! When is Apple going to fix this???!!!!???
 
This information perhaps was accurate at one time, but is no longer accurate. I have an iphone SE and it will not sync with iTunes 12.4.3, even though I read on many sources that it would.​
