I updated my itunes and now this is 12.7.0.166. the most latest Itunes on date (13-Sep-17). But there is no way I could see my apps.. only music and music and videos and music.. no menu to access my apps to manage , remove or update them..
and on the status.. an orange line
I'm really too much frustrated... looking for my apps.
MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12.6), 10GB, Core i5-2.3, 320GB
thank you King_Penguin.. your solution worked.
I backuped all of my apps located under Music/Itunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications ..
I've removed itunes 12.7x and installed 12.6 version from apple's own website. And that works fine. My apps were removed or there were no app visible.. I downloaded one app, and searched it's location and put all of my apps there. and That worked great..

Apps are not part of iTunes 12.7, you can't download them in it or use it to arrange apps on a device's homescreen - downloading and updating of apps is now done directly on the device.
iTunes 12.7 changes : Changes in the new iTunes - Apple Support
Apps are not part of iTunes 12.7, but the devices are. And since you can synchronize them on iTunes, you should at least see the space that the apps actually use on your device.
Actually apple is currently distributing 12.6 on their website. ..That works great ... 🙂
12.6.2 : Apple - Support - Downloads
You will have to delete the current version and download and install the previous version that you had installed (and copy the old version of your iTunes library/database files back, the new version is likely to have updated them, which tends to make them incompatible with older versions ; they might be in a Previous iTunes Libraries folder in /users/'username'/Music/iTunes)
go to http://filehippo.com/ you can download any old version.
this is simply "bullshi" by the apple. i'm sorry for this word. but what they want? are they god, whatever they want they can mold into? this is enough. I am a music hater.. there is nothing in my mobile even considerable as "music" and this "rubbish" update actually a "downgrade" ....
if Apple is such music lover why did the do another bullsh by removing "headphone" from their phones..
this was only Steve Jobs how remade Apple,
Steve Jobs died, and sooner Apple will too!. it is looking clear.
I'm sorry King_Penguin.. I accidently clicked on my own answer.. as solution.. but Your this answer actually worked. I'm sorry I can't change that solution.. please tell me if possible so I could selection yours...
Exactly. And, how are we to know what apps we have sitting someplace that we might want to use? Very stupid move by apple
I've been trying to sync my phone for hours and it is still stuck on '6 of 6' waiting for changes to be applied!
How are are supposed to restore my iPhone 6s Plus Apps when their's no Apps in iTunes?What a stupid move by Apple,and my iPad 3 syncs but no apps appear just music.I have only five music tracks and I'm afraid it might delete my Apps if I sync my iPhone 6s Plus and my iPad 3 apps will definitely get deleted as their 32 bit apps not 64 bit apps.Apple your moving your customers away from you big time.as this is Bullying us by saying our way or the highway.Thank God I have an Android device as well.
ooooooooooh no.. please tell me. how can i downgrade this useless update..
please tell me.
Same problem. the Menu does not display any apps and there does not seem to be the option to add from any list.
you idea could work. But i can't remove itunes.. I tried...
You probably need to change the access permissions on it e.g. (this isn't something that I've tried, and I assume that it still works) https://www.tekrevue.com/tip/uninstall-itunes/
