You should be able to restore your iOS device from the automatic 
backups, using iTunes.  Please note, your iPad must be physically 
plugged into the computer, from which you are attempting to perform the 
restore.

In iTunes on your computer, using the full size window, select you iOS 
device, displayed the the top of the window.  It's going to be a small 
icon, just to the right of the icons for music, videos, etc.  In the 
Summary, there's an option to restore your iOS device, where you want 
to click Restore Backup.

If your backups exist in your iCloud account, your documents, music 
and photos will not be restored, as only basic things like system 
files and preferences are being backed up remotely.  If you've been 
backing up your iOS device to your computer, everything should be 
restored, including your documents, music, photos, apps and the like.

See 
<https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/12.1/index.html?localePath=en.lproj#/itns3280>

If worse comes to worse, you may be able to restore you iPad, using 
iTunes on your old Mac, then performing whatever updates need to be 
made so that it will cooperate with OS X 10.10.x.

If, on the other hand, you haven't backed up your device, you're going 
to have to start from scratch.

While I hadn't noticed earlier, iOS 8.3 update is available.  It 
includes security updates.  <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222>

Please note, not one of your self inflicted issues has anything to do 
with running OS X 10.10.x.  PEBCAK.
