itunes mojave to "iphone 7" synching hung up on Step 4

I just got a 2018 Macbook Air (Retina, 13.3") this past Monday and so far, I am so not impressed. And, this is just one of the latest problems I'm having. According to the Apple site, iTunes is included in the Mojave operating system so I can't uninstall it and reinstall it without having to migrate everything (again) from my old Mac that finally became too expensive to fix after almost 5 years.


Anyways, I've been trying to synch my music in iTunes to my iPhone 7 all afternoon and it keeps hanging up and never finishing and it's very frustrating when all I want to do is get the new music I've bought recently on my phone. Is that too much to ask???


Help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks.

Yes, iTunes is included in MacOS Mojave.


But your conclusion about having to migrate again is false. You can reinstall the operating system without necessarily losing your personal data.
