HOLY CARP!!!

What would happen if I charged my iPod on my parents' computer? You know, if I just hooked it up to their ISB chord? Would my iPod be recharged and ready to go after a few hours, or would we endure some electronic wire-crossing frustrating explosion of sorts? |

Finally

The computer that you plug the iPod into would ask you if you want to erase the iPod and replace the music on it with music on the new computer. Simply say "no", "cancel" or whatever. It'll charge fine. |

Oh, geez, I better be sure to hit "no." If my parents' music ended up on my iPod that would be the end of me. Thanks, Doc. Hugs. |

You can also buy a USB wall power supply, to charge iPods and everything else that is charged via USB. |

No worries if it does, R2. When you plug it back into your computer, it will erase all their music and re-sync to yours. |

Yeah, I have one of those. Just can't find it.... Thanks, Quirt. I won't panic if my iPod is infected with a lot of Josh Groban and Jimmy Buffet. |
