prob not
Yea its something to do with the special 10.5.7 build for the unibody macbooks. Try using a USB hub or run windows in boot camp

10.5.7 fixed the DFU bug.
It was the special build of 10.5.6 that introduced unibodies and the DFU bug.

If your iPhone's screen is black, it's in DFU mode. If you see anything on the screen, it may be in Recovery. 🙂
I can confirm however that DFU mode is able to be used to restore my iPhone on a 13" MBP with 10.5.7.
Sweet. I didn't know it was fixed. My timing must be off on the 10 and 5 second counts. I'll keep trying since I now know it's not pointless.
Thanks.

as in you hold down the home and power button for 10 seconds than just the home for 10 seconds or until the little dialogue box in itunes appears
