Aug 30, 2012 2:24 PM in response to DerLoislby Kenichi Watanabe,You need a FireWire 400 (6-pin) connection, using a FireWire cable. This can be to a FireWire port on a computer, or to the white square FireWire power adapter (that plugs into a power outlet), which came with those iPods.
There is no way to adapt a USB port for FireWire. If you have a recent Mac that has a FireWire 800 (9-pin) port, you can adapt it to FireWire 400 (6-pin) using an adapter or a cable.
