Syncing means updating your iPod
to match your iTunes playlists or your entire
library. It??™s basically about connecting your
iPod to your computer and loading music.
Identify a
Fourth-Generation
(Monochrome) iPod
July 2004 saw the release of the fourthgeneration
iPod in 20-GB and 40-GB models.
This iPod sported a Click Wheel instead of
buttons (see Figure 1-8), which it borrowed
from the iPod mini, as you??™ll see a bit later
Figure 1-8: The fourth-generation
iPod has a grey-colored Click
Wheel instead of separate control
buttons.
Figure 1-7: The third-generation iPod has a docking
port on the bottom.
NOTE
USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. Like FireWire, it??™s a
method of transferring digital data at high speeds. Also
like FireWire, it provides power to the connected device
through the data cable. In the second half of the 1990s,
USB went through two commercial versions??”1.0 and
1.1??”without being able to touch FireWire??™s transfer rates.
All that changed with the release of USB 2.0 in April
2000; USB 2.0 is comparable to and even faster than
FireWire in some cases.
