If you undock the iPod while the Status Indicator is
red
, Macintosh computers and PC computers
running Windows (other than Windows XP) will display an error message. (Windows XP permits ‘hot’
connection/disconnection via USB.) When you re-dock the iPod there will be a slight delay before you
can use it while the iPort software re-synchronizes with the iPod. See

on page 6, for more information.
