    Not sure I understand your question.

     

    "Settings" is a term used on the iPhone. The term used on a Mac is Preferences", so please clarify what is it that you're looking for.

    I understand your question.  I have the "Settings" shown at the top left here:

    The big difference is I only have one device plugged into iTunes.  You have more than one.

     

    Try clicking that floppy triangle next to "Patrick Plus".  See if the "Settings" show.  If not, try only having one device plugged in at a time.

    Your screenshot shows the iPhone in the sidebar.  Click the device button to show its settings screen.  See screenshot below of my iTunes window (upper left corner), with the device button circled in red.  Click it to select your iPhone, and you'll see its settings screen.
