iPad Air 2 keeps beeping when connected via cable to a MacBook Air.

Connected the iPad Air 2 to the MacBook Air and rather than the usual experience, all the iPad Air 2 would do is keep beeping. I noticed the battery indicator appeared to be going on and off. The prompt to give permission to connect the the iPad Air 2 on the MacBook Air kept looping.

Tried different USB ports in the MacBook Air and even connected the power, but neither of these changes made any difference.

The cable is in good condition so I wondered if perhaps it was a bad connect. I wiped the contacts on the end that plugs into the iPad Air 2, inserted the cable and the problem was solved.
