chapter
2
Sleek and smart as the iPod may be, it can’t do much by itself until it meets up
with a computer. Once connected to a Mac or PC, however, the iPod is ready
to accept whatever you want to give it—your whole music library, of course,
but also everything from the complete recorded works of Tom Petty to your phone
book, from news and calendar information to les too big to t on a burned CD.
This chapter is dedicated to that concept of iPod as Satellite to Your Computer. It
explains FireWire and USB 2.0, and how to use these connections to get songs and
les off the mother ship and onto the ultraportable, ready-to-go iPod.
FireWire
Apart from boosting magazine sales, there’s never been much value in sitting in
front of the computer, waiting for large les to copy onto external drives and other
add-ons. In the eternal search for faster data-transfer speeds, Apple developed a new
high-speed cable called FireWire in the mid-1990s. It’s easy to use, it’s hot-swappable
(you don’t have to turn off anything before plugging or unplugging the cable), and—
unlike SCSI cables, which came before it—it doesn’t force you to go through
conguration acrobatics to get multiple devices to all work properly.
Dozens of other companies, including Windows PC makers, eventually picked up
FireWire. Some gave it other names along the way: IEEE 1394 (its ofcial moniker
from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, an industry standards
group) and i.LINK, used primarily by Sony. But whatever the name, it’s still the
same speedy connection underneath.

Sync Connection

With its ability to move 400 megabits of data per second, FireWire was quickly
adopted by a product that needs to get an enormous amount of information from
Point A to Point B: the digital camcorder. Other hardware with a need for speed, like
external CD burners and hard drives, followed the path to FireWire connectivity.
FireWire’s speed makes possible one of the iPod’s best tricks: slurping in an entire
CD’s worth of music from your computer in ten seconds. It’s also how the iPod gets
its battery charge. That’s great if you have a Macintosh, because every Macintosh
made since about 1998 has a FireWire connector built right in (see Figure 2-1).
If you’re a Windows PC fan, however, FireWire isn’t such a sure thing. If you bought
an iPod and then found out to your horror that your computer doesn’t have a FireWire
port, you have two alternatives.
First, you can add a FireWire card to your computer, as described later in this chapter.
Second, if you have a 2003 (or later) iPod model, you can connect your iPod via a
USB cable—a far more common PC connector. See page 40 for details.
Connecting Your iPod by FireWire
If you have a Mac, connecting the iPod is simple: Just plug in the FireWire cable.
If you have a PC, things are slightly more complicated, because there are so many
different kinds of connectors your PC might have. For example:
• FireWire connector, 6-pin. If the white FireWire cable that came with your full-
size iPod fits a socket on your PC’s FireWire card, great! Connect the far end to
the iPod, and you’re ready to rock. (As a bonus, your iPod may even get its power
charge from the same cable, depending on which brand of FireWire card you
have.)
