Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?
Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

Every time I open an app a box appears saying I need to connect to iTunes to receive push notifications. I go to iTunes and I'm already logged in,so I'm not sure what to do. Can anyone help?
Use Lion Recovery to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinstall the Mac OS X.

i downloaded io6 for ipad and an icon saying i need to connect my itunes comes up; how do i get past this?
After it restores it will walk through a setup.
It will ask you if you want to setup as a new device, from an iCloud backup or from an iTunes backup. Choose iCloud backup and then it will ask you to sign in to your iCloud account. It will restore and reboot. The you will be good.
