Note:
If your computer doesn’t have a USB 2.0 port but has a FireWire 400 (IEEE 1394)
port, you can use an iPod Dock Connector to FireWire Cable (available for purchase at
www.ipod.com/store).
By default, iPod mini imports songs automatically when you connect it to your
computer. When this automatic transfer is done, you can disconnect iPod mini.
If you connect iPod mini to a different computer and it is set to transfer songs
automatically, iTunes prompts you before transferring any music.
