Connecting and Disconnecting iPod

You connect iPod to your computer to transfer and manage music, and, in most cases,

to charge the battery.

If you have a Mac or if you have a Windows PC with a FireWire port, connect iPod

using the included FireWire cable.

If you have a Windows PC with a USB 2.0 port (and no FireWire port), use the optional

iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 + FireWire Cable (available at www.apple.com/

store—see page 48 for an illustration).

To connect iPod to your computer:

n

Plug the appropriate cable in to a FireWire or USB 2.0 port on your computer, then

connect the other end to iPod. Be sure to orient the connectors on the cable correctly.

Each connector can only be inserted one way.

n

Or, if you have an iPod Dock (see page 42), connect the appropriate cable to a FireWire

or USB 2.0 port on your computer and connect the other end to the Dock. Then put

iPod in the Dock.
