iPhone 5, iOS 9.0.2 can't sync on iTunes

Just downloaded and upgraded iOS 9.0.2 to my iPhone 5 via iTunes, then immediately got this after the phone rebooted:


"The iPhone “iPhone” cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."


My MacBook is running OSX 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.4, both the latest it's able. End of the road?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

I have been on Apple products since the SE,

years a go. and I have to say, now they are super huge it's not the same.


I am not going to upgrade everything becuase of minor things I need synced.


I also read that if update form snow leopard to mountain lion, maybe photosshop wont workl.


I have a new iphone 5 but cant run the itunes to sync in 10.6.8 on my mac mini that has been a dream.

no need to change. If fact i have 2 of them.


i agree. it's ********.


Seems like ill have to wait until i get a new imac and start fresh all over again?!?! BS Apple.

and no one is as big a fan as i am... maybe was.
