User Profile Service Application - Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.

If your User Profile Service Application Full and Incremental Syncs are not running with the above error showing in the Failed log, it means that your User Profile Synchronisation Service is not running on your server.

To fix this:
1. Browse to Central Administration
2. Go to System Settings --> Manage Services on Server
3. Select the server from the top right corner where the User Profile Synchronisaion Service is running.
4. Find the job in the list and it should be in a "Stopped" state
5. Click on Start

This can take up to 15 minutes to get started so be patient. Once complete, try running a sync again.

    If you are using the AD Import method, and not the SharePoint profile surely you can disable this timer job ?

    This is the job than runs the import so that wouldn't be possible. It pulls the information from AD and vice versa if required.
