Ok, so my touch wouldnt boot up and connect to itunes, so I got into recovery mode and tried to restore my firmware. It came u with error 2000...so I downloaded different firmware versions...nothing worked. I heard that if I downloaded firmware 4.0 and installed itunes 8.2 it would work (as some of the firmware wont work with newer itunes)...didnt work..

I have no idea what to do. It installs alright but it wont authenticate. I havent jailbroken my touch or anything...I have no idea why this has happened:confused:.

Oh yeah and past its warranty...

Any advice or solutions?

Please...im tearing my hair out over this!!!

:(

Try getting all the way to right before it authenticates and then turn off your wifi right after you click for it to authenticate.

Just tried it...didnt work. It needs to authenticate to install.
