No, the # sign is to comment out the rest of the line.
It wont make it go thru.
You're not supposed to have that infront of the IP address.

GUESS WUT??

I DID IT. Lol

It finally went 100% through after I UNINSTALLED AND REINSTALLED iTUNES!

Just relax, calm and slow down and follow directions slowly without skipping steps.
It will and does work, you just gotta be patient.
Download TU, run tinyumbrella , go to advanced/UNCHECK the box "set hosts to cydia on exit" and apply changes.
Now close TU.
Then open up itunes and hit restore that's all.
You dont need and dont have to uninstall tinymbrella.
Hosts file should be
127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
Make sure you click save before you exit if you go the manual roote.

You are awesome!! Thanks!
