My new toy 25/365


This is my new toy. It is an ASUS eee pc 1005ha netbook. I am really liking it so far. I am experiencing one problem and that is that my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation USB is not fitting in the USB port. I am trying to do some research to figure out if there is a way to make the 2 connections compatible.
As you can see this picture was taken outside and that is because our house has lousy lighting for taking pictures.

  2. Elizabeth - the USB ports should be compatible, if they're both the normal, rectangular USB connectors. Have you tried flipping the plug over each way? Does it fit in any of the netbook's USB ports, or is it only one that doesn't work? (That one has 3 ports, right?) - Tim

  3. Tim- I have tried it in all 3 USB ports and both the right way and flipping it over and it is off by just a smidge it is so weird. I just don't understand it. The Ipod USB fits fine in the laptop and the PC tower just fine so I am not sure what is up.

  4. Okay so I tried a different USB key and had to wiggle it to fit and then tried the Ipod and it worked! I don't understand it but I am happy!
