In macOS Catalina, Apple has eliminated the iTunes app that's been a staple of the Mac operating system since 2001. ITunes was split into three apps: Music, Podcasts, and TV. In the Music app on your Mac, click iTunes Store in the sidebar. If you don’t see iTunes Store in the sidebar, choose Music Preferences, click General, make sure iTunes Store is selected, then click OK. Click Purchased (below Quick Links) near the top right of the iTunes Store window. Click Music near the top right of the Purchased page. The first version of iTunes, promotionally dubbed 'World’s Best and Easiest To Use Jukebox Software,' was announced on January 9, 2001. Subsequent releases of iTunes often coincided with new hardware devices, and gradually included support for new features, including 'smart playlists,' the iTunes Store, and new audio formats. Download macOS Catalina for an all‑new entertainment experience. Your music, TV shows, movies, podcasts and audiobooks will transfer automatically to the Apple Music, Apple TV, Apple Podcasts and Apple Books apps, where you’ll still have access to your favourite iTunes features, including purchases, rentals and imports.
