Hmmm... It doesn't know the difference between iPhone and iPod... but that doesn't matter... is it syncing with iTunes? That might do it. Try closing itunes.

 

[Silver-Fox]

Restore.

yeah doing it now, close call hope the restore works ll

 

[br1anc]

no, iTunes isnt up. im doing this on my CPU that doesnt have iTunes on it.

 

[donaldj]

Huh. So you pressed the 'Jailbreak (iPod Also Supported)' button?

 

[br1anc]

[donaldj]

Thats a head scratcher... Maybe you NEED itunes. Try it on a computer with iTunes... im outa ideas.
