Updating apps using iTunes 12.6.5.3

They should just add an iOS/ iPadOS app store app with macOS

Wow that's great news! Nice find!

If you do an encrypted back up of your iPhone to your Mac, then when you purchase a new phone, just restore from backup through iTunes on Mac and all your apps will copy over

Someone fix the problem already!?

If you use the later version of iTunes to setup new device. The apps are re-downloaded. Not syncing from iTunes.

No issue here. Updated 2 apps successfully 5 minutes ago.

How

Have you tried doing it this way https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204275 ? There must be a way to get rid of all of an iTunes install.

Wish you luck.

I was using version 12.6.4.3, and have had the same problem since mid March, so it's not just that version.

I doubt here's anything wrong with anyone's system. I have exactly the same issue on both my iPhone SE and iPad Pro. I'm running OS 10.12.6 Sierra and iTunes 12.6.5.3 on a Mac Pro 5,1 and MacBook Air. My iPhone is running iOS 12.4.1 and the iPad 13.3. Both iOS's worked perfectly on Sierra managing my apps both in updates and holding copies of the apps so I could install or uninstall apps on my many iOS devices. In looking at other Apple blogs, it's become apparent this is Apple's way of forcing those who have refused to upgrade to the latest iTunes since there is no reason to stay with iTunes 12.6.5.3 and earlier.

I personally feel it's Apples doing and I doubt we'll ever see it come back. They are simply forcing people to upgrade their equipment by writing code and using their servers to frustrate people into upgrading, whether it's their software or hardware. A case in point is Mac Pro 3,1 (and others) not being able to load Sierra and above without some high end user/code writer showing how a cracked code they designed can allow these newer OS's to run perfectly on older gear. It's obvious they are trying to retire good equipment and force upgrades. I love my Apple stuff and I have plenty of it, but I hate these kind of decisions on their part. The interesting thing is this iTunes issue is not supposedly happening on the Windows side from what I've read. So maybe there's a glitch in Apples servers, as why would they do it on the Apple OS side and not the Windows versions if it's true?

Apple you have enough money in the bank to allow us users who have older gear (and can't afford to upgrade) to continue to use your later software or at least allow us the ability to use our current software and hardware in the manner it was designed.

Sorry for the rant in my love/hate relationship since my first purchase of a 9600 Tower running OS9. LOL Life goes on though and we will have to get used to their ways. I still love my Apple gear; it's dependable, works great and is paid for. I suspect it will give me many more years of trouble free use. Buying into the latest and greatest is part of the consumption problem in our rapid slide into industrial waste and pollution of the planet.

Shame on you Apple for being greedy.
