I'm on the latest version of iTunes - 12.10.11
I'm trying to update my iOS on iPhone 8 via my 64bit Windows OS and it says I need to be on the latest version of iTunes. Which I am. I even tried repairing iTunes but still getting the same error.
Is there a workaround so I can update my phone to 15.3.1?
iPhone 8, iOS 15
12.10.11 is only the current version of iTunes if you are still running Windows 7 or 8, and it did not support iOS 15. The actual latest version is 12.12.2, which only supports Windows 10 and 11. Do you have a PC running Windows 10 or 11?

Johnny DEP is correct, you need Windows 10 or Windows 11, which can install later versions of iTunes.
iTunes' helpful message actually isn't.
Rather than telling you that "your iTunes is up to date", it should say "iTunes is up to date for the version of Windows that you are using".
Not the best English perhaps, but at least it's less likely to mislead people. You're not the only one.
The update is for iTunes itself, and is installed by iTunes itself, and is not separately downloadable nor user-installable. It’s iTunes patching itself, for communications the particular iPhone. If the patch has not managed to install, restart Windows, and try again. The patch installation is usually transparent, but sometimes things get confused.
Thanks for the post! Unfortunately, I have already tried restarting - twice - but it still says the same thing. I try to update my phone and it says I need to update iTunes. So I check for updates for itunes and it says i'm up to date. What can I do??
If there’s add-on anti-malware around (probably Defender aside) disable that, and restart, and try again.
Failing that, per Apple: If you need help using iTunes or any of its features, contact Apple Support.
itunes needs to update to install latest ios on phone but i'm on latest itunes version!!!!
