Fire wire cable for I-pod Touch

Hi all,
Just a quick question, my cat decided to rip my I-pod touch usb connection cable apart today, so I went & got a new 1 which had the connection that goes into the I-pod it-self, 1 x usb connection and 1 x firewire 400 connection (its an apple product), So I thought great firewire will transfer data across quicker than usb, got home plugged in the I-pod via firewire and I-tunes would not see my Ip-pod but it does when you use the usb bit.
Does an I-pod touch not support a firewire connection ? any help would be great.

In a word, no.
Nor the Gen 5 or any iPod since. Speed really was not much different on those that did support it though so not a huge loss, and you should still be able to charge via FW, my Gen 5 charges while you get a little message telling you FW doesn't work. Never tried on my Touch.
No message telling you this?

    does anybody know if there is a fire wire cable that will fit into the mini?

    Hi,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    You can still get them at the Apple Store. I believe you want Apple iPod Dock Connector to FireWire Cable.

  • HT201180 What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

    What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

    USB is the slowest. Firewire is faster. eSata is the fastest (and will be superceded by Thunderbolt).  The old Fire was 4 pin (Firewire 400 and is essentially obsolete), new is 9 pin, Firewire 800.  All of the will transmit data, simply a different speeds.
    For eSata connectivity, you MBP must have an express card slot (and the appropriate eSata connection card) and you external enclosure must have an eSata input.  eSata cables will only transmit data, therefor it will require power by Firewire or USB cables.
    Ciao.

    Thanks

    All you need, if you've the non-Retina model, is a FireWire 400 to FireWire 800 cable -> such as this one from Amazon.
    I know that there's a UK Amazon - can you order from there? Or is there a French Amazon as well?
    Good luck,

  • I pod classic for I pod touch

    I have an I pod classic and it has warranty on it. Is it possible for me to turn the ipod classic in for I pod touch with the warranty I have?

    You will get the same model if BB still carries it. If that model is no longer avaliable, you'll get a comparable model, meaning another Classic. Your store may be willing to give you a store credit for the comparable model which you can use to purchase a touch. However, the store is not required to do this.

  • What fire  wire cable?

    I want to attach a fire wire device to my new Mac mini. I can not find a cable with a connector that fits the little fire wire receptical on the Mac. The standard plug is 6 pin, the same as on my old FW800 Mac. So I bought a 6 pin to 4 pin, not right. The IEEE 1394 says there are 6 pin to 6 pin (which I have) , 6 pin to 4 pin, and 6 pin to 9 pin. Could the Mac have a 9 pin receptical?? I wouldn't ask but the cables are $8.00 each and the store won't take it back once it's ripped open.
    Thanks Bob

    Bob, there is a brief description of the options on this page:

    Do the filenames contain special characters, like "ä,ü,..." or white space or are the vry long? Is there anything special about the image format? Try to export the edited versions in that case and reimport it with a different, shorter filename.
    For testing, create a new book with only the images you want to check.
    If this does not fix it, try rebuilding. Depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild the library.
