To register iPhone with iTunes you need to first install iTunes on your system. Here is the step by step of the process:-

• Download and install the latest version of iTunes
  
• Connect iPhone to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came with iPhone.
  
• Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to register iPhone and sync iPhone with your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on your computer, and with music, video, and other content from your iTunes library.
  
• In the Set Up Your iPhone screen, select ?Automatically sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks? to configure those items to sync automatically when you connect iPhone to your computer. You can also customize your sync settings in iTunes.

Registering iPhone with iTunes enables iTunes to identify your iPhone when it?s connected to your computer and help you manage its contents. You can then sync information with your computer and media from iTunes, and create backups of iPhone?s contents and settings. You can create an iTunes Store account, or specify an existing account, to enable purchases with iPhone.
