Yes I do have some concern. Major concern. I have some questions related to jailbreaking and iPad.

My iPad is version 4.2.1

And when I first jailbreaked, I entered Cydia and I tapped on the "Make my life easier" thing. I Googled and found out that tapping that will backup my SHSH/SHSH Blob(is there any difference?)

But I'm not quite sure...I downloaded the iSHSHit and backup again and send the .shsh file to my email. Is it considered backed up now? Means I don't have to use any TinyUmbrella etc etc...

And I don't think jailbreaking using Greenpois0n will cause any SERIOUS damage right? Worst scenario will always be restoring right?

And does iTunes 10.2.0.34 jailbreak-safe?

No, don't need TinyUmbrella, though it's really the easiest way to grab a copy of your SHSH for safekeeping on your computer.

No, jailbreaking doesn't cause permanent damage, you can always restore.

Yes, the latest iTunes is jailbreak safe.
 
Yeah thanks guys. I sent the .shsh file to my email so am i doing it correctly? And does iTunes force update for iPad? Because i heard that you cannot update your iPad because of jail breaking and apple will detect it and void your warranty. Or something like that.
 
I'm so sorry for my ignorance lol. I'm new to jailbreaking and thus i want to be sure. So is my method of backing up the shsh file correct? By sending it to my email? Is there any more things I would have to take note?
