Get the current iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
Doing so requires at least OS X 10.8.5 or Windows 7.

What version of Mac OS X do you run? Also, what is your Mac model? You can get both from the About This Mac window (from the Apple menu).
Depending on your Mac model, you may be able to run a later version of OS X, or even the current version of OS X, El Capitan.

System Update only checks for updates for the current system version you are running but that itself may be out of date. It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the required system. Find your computer model on the http://www.everymac.com web site and near the bottom of the system specification section it will say what OS versions it is capable of running. If you cannot run a newer system you will not be able to sync this phone to your present computer. If it can run 10.8.5 or higher you can either buy a download code for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion from Apple online, or you can try installing the free El Capitan OSX 10.11. El Capitan may run slower on older machines and require additional RAM purchase. Doing a big jump in system versions is also more likely to affect old software.
Snow leopard to el capitan, will it cause my macbook to be slow? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7412959
