How do I connect, sync and back up my iPad Pro with my new iMac??

Hi, Just bought a new iMac, and would like to connect, sync and back up my iPad Pro. When I try to connect my iMac tells me that it is only willing to let me do this if I start from scratch i.e. setting it up as a new iPad.

How do it get past this??

Did you transfer purchases over to the new iMac when prompted?

I didn't get that question.
