Charge FireWire iPods on sleeping Macs
Authored by: windhover on Mar 10, '06 05:52:33AM

I have a G5 iMac and a Nano. I'd never noticed this behaviour because I have a powered hub and I'd only ever docked my iPod when the machine was active or off. If the iMac is off or the hub is disconnected from the bus then the iPod does charge. If you have a powered hub and want to sleep the Mac and charge your iPod it might be an idea to disconnect the hub.
