Hi,

Im having trouble jailbreaking my Apple TV2.

Ive just got the ATV2. Ive downloaded Firmware 5.3 and used iTunes to restore the ATV2 to that (and confirmed via the ATV). Ive then downloaded Seas0nPass and run it. Its gone through all its steps getting me to push the buttons for 7 seconds etc.. and i get the done message at the end. But when i connect it to my tv all i get is the connect to iTunes picture.

Ive also tried using Apple to update the ATV to the latest software (6.1.1) then used seasonpass and i get the same connect to iTunes graphic at the end.

Where am i going wrong? Ive tried this about 20 times now and get the same thing every time.

Any help is appreciated

I have found that if you are following the directions completely sometimes keeping the atv2 plugged into AC power helps in getting it into dfu
