Hello
I have a Ipod Touch Gen 4
I was running Ios 5.0 Beta 3
I updated to Beta 3 threw the OTA update
I never got a notification to update beyond that, soo I let it go
2 weeks ago I woke up to see a message that it expired And i needed to update it
The ipod is stuck in the original start up screen for OS 5.0
It asks to connect to a wireless network to activate the ipod but nothing ever happens.
Next I tried to update it threw Itunes 10.5 Beta 6
It keep giving me an error saying the firmware was incompatible
Now I am trying to get the Ipod into DFU mode so that I can try to force any type of firmware onto it, but I cant even get it to go into DFU mode.
I have tryed plugging it into my PC and holding Home and sleep for 10 secs then releasing sleep button, the ipod just reboots every time.

If anyone could help me with this it would be great
Thanks in advance
Todd
