iPod Touch

A work in progress..

  1. You can't sync or access an iPod Touch over firewire, but it will recharge the battery. (Why?) USB only.
  2. If the machine is "sleeping" it sucks power and will die within a few days. A lot less sleep time than older pods. Update: It only did it that first time, it seems to last OK now.
  3. Hold the top button (blank screen) in for a few seconds to really shut the machine down. You'll need to slide a control. Doing this will lose your place in a podcast.
  4. You don't want to access video podcasts through Music. Trust me.
  5. Press the home button twice quickly to get a simple menu for fast access to pause.
