What OS do I need to install iTunes version 11?

After downloading the iOS 7 update on my iPhone, my contacts were deleted.  Which has been happening about monthly.
When I tried to sync the phone, iTunes does not recognize the device and advised to download version 11 (I currently have 10).
When attempting to install iTunes 11, the computer says the operating system is not supported.
My OS is 10.5.8.  What do I need to do to get my operating system compatible?  I assume I will need to purchase something but don't know what is a prerequisite to what.
Any easy answers?

Snow Leopard 10.6.8
You can order the install DVD for Snow Leopard from Apple

    Snow Leopard, if you can run it:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

  • Need to install iTunes 10.7 on a MacBook 2.1

    I just bought the new iPhone 5, but when I link it to my MacBook 2.1, it errors out and says I need to install itunes 10.7.  When I try to install nothing happens.  I have come to the conclusion that the OS is very out dated and might need to be updated.  I was told to download mountain lion but hen he details appear to not support my system.  I need direction as to what the exact OS I should download, where to download it from; I was having issues doing this in he morning and what the exact steps to resolve the OS issues - step by step.
    Thx

    In order to install iTunes 10.7, you need to install OS X 10.6 or later. On your system, click on the apple to the left of the menu bar, and about this mac. It will tell probably say OS X 10.5.x.
    In order to get OS X 10.6, call the online Apple store, which in the US is 800-MY-APPLE. Cost is $20. When you receive the DVD, first backup your system, then install the operating system update. When done, perform Software Update several times until there are no more updates. At that point, you'll be at OS X 10.6.8 and can download iTunes 10.7.  Your system needs 1GB minimum of memory in order to install OS X 10.6, also. The about this mac pop-up will tell you how much memory you have.
    You can install OS X 10.7 Lion, if you want, however, since your goal is to sync your iPhone 5, I'd upgrade to OS X 10.6 and leave it there.

  • I have the 64bit version of itunes. When I connect my iphone5 it says that I don't have the correct software and that I need to install itunes 64bit! And I can go no further! Help!

    I have the 64bit version of itunes on windows 7. When I connect my iphone5 it says that I don't have the correct software and that I need to install itunes 64bit! And I can go no further! I've uninstalled and reinstalled but it makes no difference. I have no access to other computers so at the moment I don't have a backup for my iphone should anything go wrong.
    Please Help!

    Hello ekbowers,
    It sounds like you have installed the 64 bit version of iTunes, but you continue to the get an error message that suggests to download the 64 bit version any time you connect your iPhone 5.  I understand that you have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but sometimes you may need to uninstall additional components related to iTunes to completely remove it from your system. 
    I recommend following the steps in this article to completely uninstall iTunes:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Once you have completely uninstalled iTunes, you can download the 65 bit version of iTunes for Windows here:
    iTunes 11.0.4 for Windows 64

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • What software do I need to install to play some games MacBook Pro Mid 2014

    Hello, what software do I need to install to play some games - MacBook Pro Mid 2014. Games like : Alan Wake, Assassin's Creed, Boarderlands 2, FarCry series, Crysis, etc.

    Assassin’s creed II and Borderlands 2 are in the Mac App Store.
    The other’s don’t appear to be ported to OS X. You’d have to install Windows in one of the various ways, Bootcamp (native boot) or Virtualization (VMWare, Parallels, VirtualBox). Games under Virtualization probably don’t run well.
    Also, see here http://paulthetall.com/far-cry-mac/

  • What software do I need to install on my I Mac OS X  Lion so it will read downloaded PES files?

    I have a new Brother DreamWeaver sewing machine which I need to download designs on my computer to use on the sewing machine.  I have an IMac OS X Lion and it cannot read the downloads.  What I need to know is what software do I need to install to enable my computer to read these downloads?

    Does the Mac meet the hardware requirements for Lion
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    If everything works perfectly then your data should be safe. I don't know about you but I am never going to trust my data to everything working perfectly so I always backup first.
    The next step is to buy a Snow Leopard DVD and install it
    Once you have upgraded to 10.6.8 so that you have the App Store for Lion then you can purchase and install Lion.

    I've used Linux for several years, but only recently installed Arch for the first time. I installed Bridge Linux, Chakra, and later ArchBang, and after getting a feel for pacman (I think it's great!) and, with Bridge and ArchBang, the Arch repos, I was convinced that I wanted to go ahead with an Arch installation. Not sure if this is an option for you or not, but I actually tried two "test" installations on a spare computer first, taking detailed notes, with tabs in my browser (on another computer) opened to the Beginners' Guide and the "official" Installation Guide. I also kept the Bridge and ArchBang installations; kinda nice to be able to take a look at them sometimes to see how things are set up there. I don't know if Arch users would recommend this type of approach, but it has worked out well here.

    You got it downloaded and I assume you mean it is installed as well.  It was buggy for me.
    I had to close and restarted iTunes before I could use it properly.
    Then, I had to unplug and replug in my phone before it recognises it.
    Just had to try everything.  As final choice, update over the air.  I try to avoid it as it tends to have more problems than a tethered update.

    You need to tell us exactly what messages you are seeing.
    You posted this in the OSX 10.4 forum but your computer profile says you are running OSX 10.6.8  Which system version you are running makes a big difference.
