I let mine automatically sync via iCloud. See: Set up iCloud for Contacts on all your devices - Apple Support


The iTunes app for Mac computers was discontinued and replaced when macOS Catalina was released. It cannot be installed on Macs that are running Catalina or later. See the following Apple article for information about the replacement apps: What happened to iTunes? - Apple Support


If you want to sync contacts without using iCloud on a Mac running Catalina or later, use Finder as described in Sync contacts and calendars onto your Mac and iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support (English)


On older versions of macOS use iTunes as described in Sync contacts and calendars in iTunes on Mac with devices - Apple Support
