Hi
I was told about this problem yesterday when i got iphone 6s
What you need to do is restore iphone back to factory settings
Set up as a new iphone then download software ios 9.1
Over your wifi then restore again to factory setting.
Then you will not have a problem and can restore from
Your backup i had to restore from a date in August but
It all works fine now do this over your wifi.

Thanks Brian but this didn't help me . I downloaded the latest update for the new phone and reset all content and settings. I then restarted as a new user and set it up. it now has 9.0.1 the same as my old phone however when I connect to itunes through my MAC I still receive the same message "the iPhone "iPhone" cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes. Go to www.iTunes.com to download the latest version.
when i plug in my existing S 5 it connects just fine (no message) it also has 9.0.1 I have restarted my MAC a few times but no change.
My MAC is old and runs on OSx 10.6.8 but software is up to date and my old phone works fine.
ggrrrrr been a frustrating experience
Hi Andy your problem is your pc since ios 7 you can do almost everything over your WiFi
We have 2 iphones / 3 iPads & have not used our PC for them for over 2 years
I found pc caused problems so i just back up my iPhone/ iPad to iCloud over WiFi
All my software updates are done over WiFi .
Hope this helps .
Cheers

Have you had any luck with this issue? I have just bought a new Iphone6s and having the same problem!!
The method I use is to connect them to my mac, carry out the update using iTunes, then I'm able to carry out a restore.
