How can I ignore the iTunes 11's Upgrade Screen?

[TheGreatPaulus]

On my mac I have macOS 10.9 with iTunes 11. When i try to download something or sign in into my ID Apple iTunes shows me this error.

In english: Upgrade to the latest iTunes version.
Button: Free upgrade

Why don't you want to upgrade?

Download iTunes 12.6.2 for macOS - Apple Support

This update includes minor app and performance improvements.

I prefer the old UI

You could modify the version in iTune’s Info and version plists
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Info.plist
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/version.plist
Replace “iTunes 11” with “iTunes 13”

Doesn't work, still the same screen.

Does this show even in the library? Or do you only see it when you go to the store?

 

[TheGreatPaulus]

Only when I try to login

on my early intel MacBooks 2010 2012 running Mountain lion I can even get internet through iTunes.
the version is 11.4, the latest and only one that will work with my set up.
I do agree that our iTunes version is perfect and rules!

I guess just ignore that and go on?

Yea but I can’t use online features.

Your choices are to use your old version of iTunes as an offline jukebox, or upgrade to the latest version to use the store etc.
