iPhone 6s not connecting to iTunes after updating MacBook Pro

Yesterday I updated iTunes on my MacBook Pro to the latest version... version 12.8.

I also updated my iPhone 6s to the latest version... iOS 12.0 and I was no longer able to connect my iPhone to iTunes on my MacBook Pro. iTunes gave me a message saying 'To use your iPhone with iTunes, you need to install OS X 10.11.4 (or later)'.


So.... Today I updated my MacBook Pro to macOS High Sierra Version 10.13.4 and I am still unable to connect my iPhone to iTunes. iTunes doesn't come up when I plug my iPhone into the USB and it doesn't give me any error messages... my phone just doesn't show up in iTunes anymore.


I have tried restarting both my computer and phone, tried different USB cables, tried both USB ports and nothing seems to work.


I have a...

MacBook Pro

13-inch, Late 2011


I just received my iPhone Xs in the mail, so I am wondering... if I already backed up my iPhone 6s in iTunes before all the updating, will my iPhone Xs connect to iTunes or do I first need to figure out the problem as to why my iPhone 6s won't connect to iTunes?


Thanks in advance!

MacBook Pro, macOS High Sierra (10.13.4)

Can you check if it's possible to run El Capitan?
