42 Chapter 3 Using Your iMac G5
Using FireWire Devices
To use a FireWire device with your iMac G5, simply connect the device to the computer.
Apple has already included software to work with many FireWire devices. When you
connect a FireWire device, if your iMac G5 cannot find the correct software, you can
install the software that came with the device or check the device manufacturer’s
website for the latest software.
Note: The FireWire port is designed to provide power for FireWire devices (up to a
total of 8 watts). You can connect multiple devices to each other and connect the
“daisy-chain” of devices to the FireWire port on your iMac G5. In most cases, at most
two devices should get power from the iMac G5. If you connect more than two devices,
the rest of the devices in the daisy-chain should be powered by separate power
adapters. Connecting more than two FireWire devices that get power from the iMac G5
may cause problems. If a problem occurs, shut down your iMac G5, disconnect the
FireWire devices, and restart your iMac G5.
Using FireWire Target Disk Mode
If you want to transfer files between your iMac G5 and another FireWire-equipped
computer, or you have a problem that prevents your iMac G5 from starting up, you can
use FireWire Target Disk Mode to connect to another computer.
To connect your iMac G5 in FireWire Target Disk Mode, follow these steps:
1 Make sure that your iMac G5 is shut down.
2 Use a FireWire cable with a standard 6-pin connector on each end to connect your
iMac G5 to another FireWire-equipped computer.
3 Start up your iMac G5 and immediately hold down the T key.
Your iMac G5 display shows the FireWire logo. The other computer’s display shows the
iMac G5 internal hard disk icon and the icon of a CD or DVD disc in the iMac G5
computer’s optical drive.
4 Drag the iMac G5 hard disk icon and the CD or DVD disc icon to the Trash when you
have finished transferring files.
5 Press the power button on your iMac G5 to shut it down.
6 Disconnect the FireWire cable.
