  1. Hi…I’m trying to jailbreak an Apple TV2 I bought from Amazon. I ran iFaith and it said it found the 5.2 blob, which I used to create a custom IPSW, saved it to my desktop and then tried to restore in iTunes. I’ve tried this about 20 times for this one box and usually get a 1604 error, then 1600 over and over…any suggestions or is there a blog to walk thru how to take an ATV2 right through?
    Also, most of the shsh files (for other boxes I have) end in 6.1.3…does that mean there isn’t any older ones to restore to and I’m screwed? The thing I don’t understand is I checked these boxes out and most ran 5.2 (6106.96) when I checked General/About…
    Lastly, I have a box that’s running 4.1…how do I go about breaking it?
    I also just got a SERVICE “APPLE MOBILE DEVICE(APPLE MOBILE DEVICE) FAILED TO START. VERIFY YOU SUFFICIENT PRIVILEGES TO START SYSTEM SERVICES error when updating iTunes to the newest version as per your recommendation above.
    Thanks very much – love your uTube vids.
