[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1459996"] I think what you are trying to say is that you are trying to sync a brand new iPhone with a very old Mac. That's not going to work out very well. Possibly what you mean is that your Mac isn't THAT old, but you need to jump up to a PAID upgrade (like to 10.6 from 10.5) in order to get iTunes 7 which will in turn work with the iPhone 5. Bottom line: if your Mac is running 10.5, it's really kind of old and while you will probably get around the issue this time, this sort of thing is going to keep happening if you keep on buying new toys and trying to attach them to old equipment. Just so you know. So, what to do: if you're on 10.5, you'll need to buy a copy of 10.6 by calling Apple on the phone and ordering a DVD ($30+shipping). Once 10.6 is installed, do all the updates to get 10.6.8 and the Mac App Store. Then your iPhone 5 and iTunes 10.7 should work. Then we'll need to know more in order to advise you further. [/QUOTE]
