iTunes can't connect to iPad since upgrade 10.0.1

I have an iPad air2, recently upgraded to 10.0.1.

My computer is iMac, Mac OS X version 10.7.5

Since the upgrade, when I try to sync, I get the following message:


"iTunes could not connect to the iPad "iPad" because an invalid response was received from the device"


Exactly the same has happened with my iPhone5.


Am I missing a trick?

iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Hi,


Your Mac must be running v10.9.5 or later to run iTunes > http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/


Since v10.9 (Mavericks) is no longer available from the App Store, see if your Mac can upgrade to v10.11 El Capitan,


Upgrade to OS X El Capitan - Apple Support

That would allow you to install the latest version of iTunes 12.5.1 so you can sync your iPad.

** If you decide to upgrade to El Capitan, make sure to backup all your data first then upgrade
