Thank you all for the help. As I quickly learned, 10.5.8 is no longer available for download unless you find an older version online or purchase one of the 10.6 upgrade packages. Just purchased a new iMac.

Congratulations on your purchase but I hope you had consulted this:

In this case, it has nothing to do with the ports being 1.1 or 2.0.
The difference is that for their newer machines, they started providing way more power from the USB port than on earlier machines. A typical USB port shouldn't provide more than 500mA. The iPad needs way more than that to charge (especially if it's on). http://event.asus.com/mb/2010/ai_charger/ |

ASUS has come out with a driver allowing for iPAD charging via USB on their motherboards; could be of interest for some;

This may be another solution when you are on the road and need a quick power fix without your power brick. |
