    Hey cloudfarmer,

     

    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to know when you can successfully unplug your iPod.  This article show many different ways you can eject the iPod without using the eject icon.

     

    Safely disconnect iPod

    iPod can be safely disconnected by simply unplugging the cable if the iPod display shows any of the following screens:

    • "Charging"
    • "Ok to disconnect"
    • The iPod main menu with the Music, Settings, and Extras selections in addition to others

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    Have a nice day,

    Mario

    Thanks for your help.

    In fact it turns out I may have had the iPod plugged in when I did the upgrade to Maverick, which meant the portal was not working .
