I once had a similar problem. Ended up building my own cable using a usb one, see here <a href="http://pinouts.ru/PortableDevices/ipod_pinout.shtml">http://pinouts.ru/PortableDevices/ipod_pinout.shtml</a><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 30/08/2010, <b class="gmail_sendername">Brian Munyao Longwe</b> &lt;<a href="mailto:blongwe@gmail.com">blongwe@gmail.com</a>&gt; wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
Hi peeps,<br><br>I&#39;m trying to find a firewire charger/sync cable for a 1st generation iPod. Only need to borrow it for a few minutes to &#39;kickstart&#39; my seemingly dead iPod. Apparently it can&#39;t charge with the new USB iPod/iPhone cables, something about a slightly different pin configuration. Anyone have one of these?<br>
