iOS 6 iTunes Problems

[calmhie]

I have just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6.

When I connect it to my mac running 10.5.8 with iTunes running 10.6.1 I get a pop-up saying I need the new iTunes but when I downloaded it from the Apple website I got a pop-up saying my mac needs to be running MAC OS X 10.6.1 or later.

Can anyone shed any light on this and give me any help on how to fix this?

Thank you

I get exactly the same messages. I had removed all music from my iPhone in order to allow space for downloading ios6, and now I have no means of getting it back on there as my iTunes no longer recognises my phone!! What a joke. I have logged a call with Apple so hopefully they will be able to help ...

Do you guys have PowerPC based macs? Because they are no longer supported starting with iTunes 10.7.

I just did some checking and 10.6.3 is the latest iTunes you can run on 10.5.8. If you want 10.7 you'll have to buy snow leopard/lion/mountain lion

Your model is capable of mountain lion just fine. However, to upgrade to mountain lion you need the mac app store, which requires snow leopard.
