How do I get the latest version of iTunes on my iPad? We have been trying to do updates to the iPad, but have to update to a newer version of iTunes?

iTunes as a service was re-branded some time ago as Apple Music. At the same time, the related Apps on devices were similarly renamed.


iTunes as an App remained with Mac until its functionality was subsumed into Finder and the new Music App at which time references to iTunes disappeared.


For Windows PC, the iTunes for Windows application is very much still alive and kicking.  iTunes for Windows provides multiple services - such as providing synchronisation functions for connected Apple devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod) and access to the Apple Music services, media and associated subscriptions from the PC. 


You should note that the most recent versions of iTunes for Windows requires the Windows PC to be running Microsoft Windows 10 or Windows 11.
