    Default iPod and iPhone Firmware Download



    How to restore or update your iPod/iPhone:

    After downloading the desired firmware below, you can shift-click (PC) or option-click (Mac) the Restore or Update buttons in iTunes. A file dialog will open and let you choose the downloaded ipsw-file.

    Note: Your browser may change the ipsw-file into a zip-file. In that case, just rename it to end in .ipsw and iTunes will accept it.


    The firmwares can be downloaded from the following link, most of them are direct downloads :

    A mate of mine has successfuly downlaoded and installed the firmware on his Ipod Touch via iTunes without jailbraking it.

    Its stuck in restore mode, do pass it to him, looks like he has nothing to lose at this stage.

    jailbreak !, how come you want to jailbreak it? I dont know much about the Apple Ipod or Iphones myself , my friend wanted to jailbreak the ipod for some reason because of the new features in the firmware, but then i had a download that paid firmware for free and just flashed it using ITunes itself
