My problem.
I got an Iphone 5.
Can't sync it with itunes. "Evan's Iphone cannot be used because it requires ITunes version 10.7 or later. " I have ITunes 10 (when I try and update ITunes it says I have the most current version)
Old MacBook 3.1 Intel Core 2 DUO
Mac OS 10.5.8


Any help appreciated.

It just works.

Or have you tried downoading the latest version off the website instead of just updating through itunes?

Go here.  Click "Download".

As others have said, download the latest version. If that does not work, remove the version you have and reinstall from scratch.

IPhone 5 runs iOS 6 which requires iTunes 10.7.  You need a newer version of Mac OS X to run iTunes 10.7.  Upgrade to OS X 10.6 or newer, latest is 10.8 (Mountain Lion).

Edited to add:

Get Snow Leopard here: Apple

I did.  Won't work.

I've been googling. I think I'm in a bind.  I might have to get a disc from apple to update to 10.6 OS

Yeah but he needs SL before he can get ML or Lion.   Easiest just to buy SL DVD from Apple for $20 and call it good.

Yep, I missed the 10.5.8 the first time around. 10.6.8 is the minimum going forward.

Sorry didn't realize you were running Leopard. Here is a thread on Mac Suport that may help:
