Interesting Trick your introducing.
However doesn't 'Restoring' mean going backwards?

Will this process damage your Ipod

When I do this I get the Unknown error 1403. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?

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! :)

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?

Pls Reply.

what do u do after this to get apps

Holy SHIT !!! Works like a charm !!!

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

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 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

I tried to do it, but now I cannot access to the Ipod anymore. Itunes doesnt recognize him anymore...what cani I do plz help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
an error called 0xE800005D

the only problem i has was with the computer not able to find the file when you [shift+restore] it kept coming up with an error saying the software is not available for the ipod when i typed in the directory name, so eventually i put the whole shortcut icon in the pop up box after you [shift+restore} after that it worked instantly!

I tried this with itunes 9.1 and my itouch version is 1.15, i tried it and i got the error message "the ipod could not be restored because the firmware is uncombatible" or something close to that. and I wam runnign window 7 ultimate with itunes 9.1

it worked for me!:)

Thanks a lot.I upgraded my iPod 1st generation.At last I can have app in my iPod. THanks a lottttttttttt

it won't work if you try to do this to simply it's nearly impossible to upgrade from 1.1.2 to 2.2.1 via itunes like this.there is an image tricking.don't take a fool of people;it's a shame:both the images shown above are not for the same device,the first one has a different serial number,different to that of the second one in the second image.....
rabish

This didn't work for me. All mine does is say that it's the right version, but when I got to add apps or music, it says that I need to update it. It's pissing me off.
