Re: iPod off my Pismo

Luis:

Nope, you are correct. The Pismo has two 6-pin (powered) firewire ports 
which will work fine with the iPod mini (I don' t have a mini so this 
is assuming that the mini does in fact require 6-pin firewire ports).

Are you sure? I thought every firewire port on macs was the 6-pin type 
(I never owned a Pismo, though, so maybe someone can correct me if I'm 
wrong).

Re: iPod off my Pismo

2004-01-25 Thread Robin Ashe
I don't have a Pismo or a Mini iPod so I can't say for sure, but it seems to
me that most USB 2 hardware is USB 1.1 compatible, although it's much slower
running on USB 1.1. I don't know if the iPod or the Software would insist on
USB 2.0 though. I wouldn't be surprised considering the mandatory built in
USB for Panther.

The Pismo has TWO 6 pin Firewire ports, if yours doesn't, it's NOT a Pismo.
Also, AFAIK all Mac Firewire connections are 6 pin. If you connect to a 4
pin FW device it's by way of a 6 pin to 4 pin cable.

The other two pins on the FW cable are for power. While I haven't tried 
it, a 4-to-6 cable should be OK for transferring data to/from an iPod.
Are you talking about a PC card? A Pismo has two 6-pin FW ports..

I have a pismo, I was looking at the firewire cable and counted 3. 
However with better minds then mine saying the pismo is a 6 Pin Fire 
Wire port I explored further.  I see 3 on the top and 3 on the 
bottom, and the USB is backward capable, So looks like I am buying a 
round of mini iPods all around.
Thanks to all
