    iMac 2010 27" QuadI7 OS10.12, iMac 2008 OSX10.11, MBP Late2011OS10.12 , iPad Pro 10.5", iPhone 3GS
    According to this URL the iPad will work with Leopard 10.5.8. That you can purchase and upgrade your iMac. I would try it on my old iMac G5 with 10.5.8 but it's over at a friends house.

    Can I use the iPad with Tiger or Panther? | iPad FAQ

    Or take it back and wait until iOS 5 comes out sometime in the next couple of months. At that time, you're suppose to be able to use it without the need for connecting it to your computer.
    I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth.
    In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus.
