iPod mini: Conflicting "do not disconnect" and "connect" messages during a software update

Under certain circumstances, you may see the "do not disconnect" screen on your iPod mini, while the updater application on your computer is telling you to connect the iPod mini to AC power to complete the upgrade process.

This can happen in this situation:

• The iPod mini already has iPod software 1.1 installed.
  
• It is connected to a Windows PC via USB.
  
• You try to restore it with the same 1.1 software, which is included in iPod Updater 2004-04-28.
  

The solution is to disconnect the USB and connect to AC power to complete the upgrade process. (The message on the iPod mini is incorrect.)
