iTunes 12.12.8 for Windows was updated today, bringing many new features and enhancements from Apple, including “support for new devices” and improved safety. The previous version of iTunes, iTunes 12.12.7, was released in December 2022. This is the first update to iTunes since then.
Apple is likely referring to the HomePod when it mentions “new devices” in the launch notes for the update. The HomePod was introduced in January of 2023. In addition, Apple then released new models of the MacBook Pro with screen sizes of 14 and 16 inches and updated versions of the Mac mini.
Downloads of iTunes for Windows can be obtained from the Microsoft Store and the Apple website.
