IOS 7 Connecting iphone to itunes

Since updating my iPhone 4S to IOS 7 I haven't been able to connect my phone to itunes. It says I have to update my iTunes. However the version of iTunes it needs to update to isn't supported on my old imac which run OS X 10.5.8 and that was an upgrade from 10.4. The old boy wont operate efficently if upgraded to 10.6.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get my phone to sync without having to go out and purchase a new system, which I can't afford...

Hi everybody. From the day one since I bought Iphone 5S, windows 7 doesn't recognize it. I only hear the noise as I plug any usb. Itunes doesn't recognize it either of course.
I went through all the posts here, did everything that is written and very well explained but nothing.
When I go to Device manager and update the driver from the list etc. it just gives me an error.
I did reinstall Itunes and all the apple upgrades for several times, it did nothing.
I restored the phone, erased all the contents and datas, I emptied it completely. Even typed all the phone numbers manually.. this is how far I went. I "registered" the phone via Wi-Fi because obviously I couldn't connect it via Itunes.
I really have no idea what to do. I really tried everything.
I'd appreciate any help.
Thank you.
Ivona

    I have an iphone 5. I have no idea of the ios version in it. Recently i broke my iphone screen and its showing up nothing. it was never synced to itunes or to any pc. When i tried to connect iphone to itunes in my pc it was asking for passcode which i had forgotten ages ago. Suggest me the possible ways to recover my iphone.

    Since the screen doesn't work, it will be challenging to get it working, even thru iTunes. You will need to ask yourself if you want to invest more money in it or get a new one, especially since the contents will be lost since you don't know the passcode. Apple will gladly replace the screen for a cost that represents a significant portion of the price of a new. Once the screen is done, you may or may not be eligible for the free iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program.
    Or, if you decide to salvage it and are strong of heart and firm of hand, you can replace the screen yourself for less. See here and note they carry kits with all needed tools and parts.

  • Can i connect iphone with itunes on windows pc?

    can i connect iphone with itunes on windows pc?
    and if i can, am i going to lose everything if the device is the fisrt time is connecting with this pc?

    Yes you can connect it.
    You will only loose everything if you choose to sync. If you don't then no.  But then you won;t be able to do much while connected, as any transfer of data  (music, movies, etc..) will require a sync.

  • TS2818 Having trouble connecting iphone to itunes in windows 8

    Got a new computer with Windows 8, downloaded iTunes and now can't connect my iPhone to iTunes.  Any help is appreciated

    Hello Mylenium:
    I did as you suggested and it worked much better.  Very smooth process.
    Thank you for your suggestion.
    I do have another problem, this time with the serial number and I think I
    may have to call Adobe on this one.
    I purchased this license from someone on eBay.  He assured me the license
    number was good.  The CD came in a case with the original serial number
    printed on the cover.  When I installed CS5 on my other computer, I was
    having similar troubles and spoke to one of the support people.  He gave me
    another license number that worked.  I have since uninstalled CS5 and did
    not deactivate the license.  Perhaps that is the problem.
    Your thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thank you again for your help.
    Best Regards,

  • Connect iPhone to iTunes with broken display screen

    My iPhone has a broken display screen and I can't connect with my iTunes because it says I have to log into my phone.  I can't log into my phone because it is not working.  I tried pressing the home button and then acting out the motions of entering my password, but nothing is happening.  I have my replacement phone and I'm trying to reset my broken phone, but I can''t do that until I log into iTunes.  If someone can advise me on what to do, it will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.  By the way, I am doing this on a PC computer.

    Try putting the phone in DFU mode and then doing the restore. This article should help.

  • Audiobooks lose their last location when connecting iPhone to iTunes

    This is a major inconvenience when in the middle of many several hour audiobooks (m4b).
    Tech support is no help and all they tell me is that they are looking into it. This has been happening for YEARS.
    I guess I'm one of the few that listen to audiobooks because between this and podcasts tech support knows NOTHING about these functions. This is terrible as I have to load up as many audiobooks as I possibly can...and...listen to them all before attempting to add music, video, audiobooks or sync contact/calendar info with the computer.

    Yes, it does work up until I sync the iPhone with iTunes. Then ALL the audiobooks are reset to the beginning. (Podcasts are nuked during this process as well by the way)
    You can imagine just how frustrating it is when you are well into several books.
    I dread connecting the phone to the computer because of this and what it does to my podcasts also.
    Apple has had their best and brightest working day and night tirelessly on this for over a year. The poor schlubs that field the calls are repeatedly told by the "engineers" that they are working on it. When in reality, no one has a clue what is happening and they have even gone so far as to tell me that this undesired behavior is actually a feature.
    I don't feel bad. Apparently I'm not the only one that has heard this explanation. I've heard others have also been told the same thing by Apple when something doesn't work as expected that it is a "feature." However, they didn't get a long story as I did as to why I should enjoy this particular feature.
    Nice huh?
    Don't test your iPhone on my account. I wouldn't want you to experience the same frustration as I have. But...if you do, please let me know if it happens to you also.
    Thanks Katrina
