Q: iPod and iPhone failing to sync by wifi after iTunes 12.4.1.6 upgrade

I use OSX 10.11.5 on my iMac. My iPiPod and iPhone are failing to sync by wifi after iTunes 12.4.1.6 upgrade. I have tried a manual Sync which has worked in the past to get wifi sync back but it has made no difference this time. Can anyone help?

iMac (24-inch Early 2009), OS X El Capitan (10.11)

Thanks. Leroy. I had already tried the advice in the link but syncing with the network was not my problem. It was the failure to link with iTunes. However your reply prompted me to explore another avenue which gave me the solution. My McFee Security has also had a recent upgrade and it turned on its Firewall I have now switched it off and the sync with iTunes now works fine. (I am protected by the Macs own firewall.) Success.
