I've tried to change to article to reflect the fact that the link to the official website is a dead link, but I'm not sure if I have done so correctly. Doonagatha (talk) 07:41, 13 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

External links modified

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on IPod Classic. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20070907155122/http://www.apple.com:80/ipodclassic/ to http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

USB?

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The article says the connectors are USB/Firewire but the iPod Classic connectors were all Apple's 32 pin proprietary connector which was discontinued with the discontinuation of the classic 6th generation. Or did i miss something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmhowitt (talk • contribs) 08:39, 1 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

At the host end, the wire is USB-A or Firewire. At the iPod end, it's 30-pin. The reason we bother to state that it was USB/Firewire on the host end is because the iPod hails to a bygone era when it wasn't unheard of for devices to connect to PC via an ancient "D-Sub" 9-pin serial or 25-pin parallel connector (designed in the 1970s!). For example, the Rio PMP300 connected via the parallel printer port. Heck, when the first-gen iPod came out, Sony was still insisting that it was totally cool for users to record their MP3s to MiniDisc via an analog connection! — TheHerbalGerbil^(TALK|STALK), 05:53, 11 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
