iPod touch iPod Jailbreak Guide: Revised (For Intel Mac)

Ahh, you're using the Yahoo mail template. Try creating a new account (not a Yahoo! account - I think their template system there defaults to Yahoo.com users, as you suggested) so that you'll be able to enter an incoming and outgoing server. Give that a shot and report back on the results.

Nope. No luck yet. I will keep trying.

thanks for all your help again.
 
Just wanted to say thanks very much for producing this guide. I've just successfully carried out the process on my Touch. For anyone worried about doing it, don't be. The instructions are very clear and really do guide you through every single step of the way.

The only problem I had once installing the new application pack from page 2 was that I'd forgotten to re-do the CHMOD. It might be worth highlighting that you need to do that if you update the applications?

Thanks again to the OP and all those who've contributed.

Thanks for the great site.

I manage to jailbreak my iPod Touch and have the iPhone apps working except the Mail for Yahoo. I also have the iPhone and my Yahoo Mail is working fine there but it just won't work on the iTouch. Any1 got any suggestion? The Gmail works fine though.

Any help?

Hi, I just manage to get the add button onto the Calendar. I followed the instructions from here http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/11/hack-enable-adding-calendar-events-on-your-ipod-touch

I dont have a Mac so I am doing everything using a pc and my itouch. I downloaded the N54AP.plist file using ibrickr. Then I went to http://140.124.181.188/~khchung/cgi-bin/plutil.cgi to convert that to a text file.

I used Wordpad to add the 2 lines from the Tuaw site. Be sure it is added under the 'capabilities' section. And reloaded that newly edited text file back to the itouch. Of course, I had to delete the old file 1st using mobilefinder in the itouch itself.

I rebooted the itouch and it worked when I turned it back on. Hope it helps.

A fix for this appeared in the snstaller app yesterday. I downloaded this and it appeared to work OK. But my date and time reset to 1970 twice since I applied it.
 
ok, I uploaded MobileMail.app to /Applications/, GMM.framework to /System/Library/Frameworks/ and MobileMailSettings.bundle to /System/Library/PreferenceBundles and chmod'ed everything to 755 (recursively) but when starting from the Shell I still get an error
Code: 
# /Applications/MobileMail.app/MobileMail
zsh: bus error  /Applications/MobileMail.app/MobileMail
And running from SummerBoard it immediately dies on me.
Any idea how to fix this?
