Apple Releases iTunes 10.7, Ready for iOS 6 and New Models

Although we would prefer to be downloading the all-new iTunes that Eddy Cue showed off at today's Apple event in San Francisco, Cupertino is pushing a modest 10.7 update to the existing version for iOS 6 compatibility.

Apple has released iTunes 10.7, and despite the full version number, this is a minor update and not the swanky new edge-to-edge version demonstrated at Apple's media event on Wednesday.

That said, you'll want to download iTunes 10.7 if you're planning to pick up a new iPhone 5 next week, or plan to preorder one of those slick new iPods.

"iTunes 10.7 adds support for iOS 6 running on compatible iPhone, iPad and iPod touch models," the release notes read. "This update also adds support for the latest iPod nano and iPod shuffle models."

iOS 6 arrives on those aforementioned compatible devices next Wednesday, September 19, so be sure to download and install iTunes 10.7 before then so you'll be ready to go.
