It’s worth mentioning that Apple has transitioned away from the standalone iTunes app in recent versions of macOS. Instead, they have introduced the Apple Music app, which combines music library management, Apple Music streaming, and access to the iTunes Store. Depending on the version of macOS you are using, you may see the Apple Music app instead of the traditional iTunes app.
Pulling up iTunes on your Mac involves accessing the Music or iTunes preferences, enabling the iTunes Store option, and then opening the iTunes or Apple Music app to access your music library and the iTunes Store.
