I sync my iPhone 4 to my MBP, but I want to jailbreak my phone here at work, where I have Windows.

Do I need to do anything in iTunes/will I mess anything up by jailbreaking on a different machine than I sync my phone to?

Thanks.

Welp.. I've tried twice now and the jailbreak is failing in greenpois0n.. any ideas?

Getting the device into DFU mode instead of recovery mode seems to be the culprit for a lot of people. Are you sure it's in DFU mode?

How can I tell? I'm following the timer exactly as greenpois0n prompts me to...
 
Had similar problems with Greenpois0n (went into DFU mode no problem, but kept getting failures). Limera1n worked perfectly.
