ipad &ipod

I just bought a new ipod touch running ios12.1 and when I tried to connect with my imac running 10.11, a message advised that I need to update the os to 10.11. The ipod's specs says that it should work with os 10.8. I phoned apple and after they put me on hold to research the problem, I was told that with ios 12.1 I'll need to update my imac's os. Out of curiosity I checked my ipad mini 2 running ios12,01 and I got the same message. It worked fine with ios 11. Luckily, my mbp has Sierra and the ipod works. Itunes is up to date on both computers.

Apple needs to update their specs for the ipod touch or fix the ios to be able run with an older os.
