Interesting
Interesting Trick your introducing.
However doesn't 'Restoring' mean going backwards?
Restoring iPod Touch
Restoring means going to the original state, in this case we are actually upgrading to the original state of the latest OS version.
Hmmm
Will this process damage your Ipod
1403 error
When I do this I get the Unknown error 1403. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?
Help
When you download this you have to save then run it & wait for it to finish loading then you click the restore thing.
i got it too
i got that error message too. it was an error in the software I downloaded, but I payed for it.
to 1403 error: I got this
to 1403 error: I got this too. I fix it I put my iPod in dfu mode. I don't remember how but google it and it should come up! :)
Capacity??
according to the pictures you lose about 200mb of capacity throughout this operation.
look on the first picture. "Capacity: 7.27gb"
Now look on the second picture. "Capacity: 7.08GB"
does anyone know whats going on here?
Thats because the firware
Thats because the firware update has more to it packed in the file. So when it updates and the files are extracted and installed on your ipod, they take up more space which then gives you less room on the ipod itself to place your music and videos and everything else.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.....Need Help
Hi
Does this in any way damage my iPod or is it the original version?
Pls Reply.
what
what do u do after this to get apps
YEEEEHAAAA !!!
Holy SHIT !!! Works like a charm !!!
Virus
The radipshare link to the firmware download is an exe file and contains up to three trojan virus's. Thought I'd warn some of you b4 u download tht one, because there are safer downloads of the file elsewhere. Look for .ipsw at the end not .exe
Don't be silly......
The alternative file link is tested for viruses before posting, the file is just an exe wrapper to automatically download firmware file from torrent link without using any torrent client made via popular Torrent2Exe service, here is a VirusToal scan result scoring 11/40 (with major AV flagging it safe), if you still feel unsafe use the first link.
Actually..
Whether thats true or not, I tried downloading it and my anti virus software reported about 3 or 4 viruses which I had to delete, and the download stopped when I deleted them. and the file is supposed to be 250 mb or 248 somewhere around there but that download is only a few hundred kb, and sadly the first link doesnt work for me so if anyone could help me out on that? because the third takes like a day to download, after 15 minutes I've only downloaded 1.47 mb on that one O.O out of 250
window vista
how to get this to work on window vista i downloaded the files but when i try to restore i can't find the files. from any of the folder or document.
The first link doesnt work
The first link doesnt work for me, I tried it from other people too and it's always the pdf.apple.com/protected.... blah link for everyone that posts the 2.2.1 restore, except for the alternate links but the second is a virus and the third could take a day or 3 to download, with the computer on the whole time

iPod touch not connecting to itunes
I had this problem after updating my ipod touch a while ago. I forget what version. Anyways, I found a post somewhere that allowed you to boot the touch in safemode and that basically forced itunes to see it. Startup itunes, plug in your touch, then just hold down the home and power button at the same time. when you see the apple icon, let go of the power button and keep holding the home button until you see a USB cable icon on you touch screen. itunes then was able to recognize the touch and I could restore back to the original firmware version (1.1.1) you will lose all your stuff, but I got it working again - just did it last night!
time?
how long does it take to let it restore and stuff?
like im doing it rite now and i guess by the time you answer, is gonna be too late,
oh well:]
more information for later veiwers:]
my touch is restoring rite now and it shows the apple, and a bar(partialy filled) is that the loading bar for when its finished?
No 'iTouch' folder!
In the 3rd picture were you select the new firmware you are looking in a folder named iTouch. When i tried to go through this process there doesnt seem to be an iTouch folder anywhere on my computer! Any advice?
iTouch Folder
I created that folder, you need to navigate to the location where you saved the downloaded IPSW file.
help
