Ok so i tried to jail break my itouch AFTER i upgraded it to 2.0....

Turned out it didn't support this new firmware and now every time i connect my ipod to my comp and Itunes try's to open so i can try to Restore it, this pops up every time.-

"iTunes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes".

PLEASE HELP!

REMEMBER IT'S AN IPod Touch.

IMPORTANT: THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY ME TRYING TO INSTALL THE JAIL BREAK SOFTWARE! NOT BECAUSE OF THE UPDATE!

hold the buttons in for 10 seconds until its fully turns off then let go

then re-try if you get the same you may have to reflash it with 2.0

Thats the error message i get when i turn on itunes. And on my ipode the only thing it shows is what it shows when you just get the touch.

(Not to be pushy or anything but i have sectionals in 2 days and need to find this out today.)

Ok wow i've seen more complicated issues solved in about 10 min...............
