Can't install iTunes on macOS Monterey

Good day! Recently updated my macbook air to macOS Monterey. And now there was a problem downloading the iTunes app to my device (since it was not installed earlier). How can this problem be solved? Thank you in advance.

Marina,

For the newest versions of macOS, namely Catalina, Big Sur, and Monterey, there is not a version of iTunes. Use the Music and related apps instead. See information in here:

Hmm, just read the github replies and it seems the latest Monterey has broken something for the installer. For me 12.3.1 broke the Thunderbolt to Firewire cable to my EyeTV 410 box which I found was the best video receiver Elgato ever made.


As for the lack of iTunes, I was relieved to get it running and will reluctantly move to Apple Music, et al, when they force my iPods from my cold, dead hands. Alternatively, I'll run it reluctantly, from one of my too-many old Macs that sit in cupboards or on the floor where all the spiders, dragons and goodness knows what else live.
