Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If I'm understanding correctly, several apps are not working because you need to update your macOS. I will be happy to help you with this. Your current version of macOS can be updated to macOS Sierra.
Take a look at the information below to ensure that you meet all of the other necessary system requirements to upgrade to macOS Sierra, from our article: How to get macOS Sierra
Can your Mac use Sierra?
macOS Sierra requires one of the following Mac models and versions of OS X. It also requires at least 2GB of memory and 8.8GB of storage space.
- iMac (Late 2009 or newer)
- MacBook (Late 2009 or newer)
- MacBook Pro (Mid 2010 or newer)
- MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
- Mac mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
- Mac Pro (Mid 2010 or newer)
- OS X El Capitan v10.11
- OS X Yosemite v10.10
- OS X Mavericks v10.9
- OS X Mountain Lion v10.8
- OS X Lion v10.7
To find your model, memory, storage, and version of OS X, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu ().
Get Sierra from the App Store
Before upgrading, it's a good idea to back up your Mac. Then follow these steps:
- Open the App Store app on your Mac.
- Search the App Store for macOS Sierra, or go directly to the macOS Sierra page.
- Click the Download button on the macOS Sierra page. A file named Install macOS Sierra downloads to your Applications folder.
- After download is complete, Install macOS Sierra opens automatically. (You can also open it from the Applications folder, Launchpad, or Spotlight.) Click Continue and follow the onscreen instructions.

You are quite correct with many of your conclusions:
Indeed your version of OS X is too old to support the current version of iTunes (12.3.2) which is required to communicate to your iPhone running iOS 9.
If you purchased your Mac new in 2012, what you must (and can certainly) do is upgrade your OS X to El Capitan (the current version). You can do that from here:
Once you have done that, you can use the current version of iTunes and everything will be fine.

UPDATE: By the way, when you check for an iTunes update and are told you have 'the current version', that is because that is the most current version your OS X version can run.
