cant update itunes 12.7 on mac

cant get my music off mac laptop onto new iphone 8. says needs itunes 12.7 but that update not found. i did update my mac os, got advice to uninstall security update 2017-003 but cannot find that in my updates/app store. I looked for a "more" option as suggested but cannot find that option. What am I doing wrong? This is quite frustrating, I just want MY music to be on MY phone!!!

thanks!

iPhone 8, iOS 13

You'll need to update your Mac if it isn't compatible with iTunes 12.7 or newer. iTunes 12.7 requires OS X Yosemite 10.10 or later, but if your Mac is compatible with OS X Mavericks 10.9, it can run up to OS X El Capitan. If your Mac was introduced in 2012 or later, it can run the latest version of macOS, macOS Catalina.
