So I've been trying to jailbreak my 1st generation iPod Touch for about 12 hours now. I've searched through this thread and haven't found the info I'm looking for, so if it's been covered in another post, please redirect me to the link. If it hasn't been discussed, I respectfully submit my case for any help...

Mac 10.4.11, iPod Touch 1st Gen.

I downloaded the firmware update, QuickPwn, and started the process. Everything went fine until step 8 of the tutorial, when there's a progress bar. It hung there. I left it overnight and came back to see that it had surely hung.

Tried it a few more times, no luck. Same experience. iTunes didn't open, it just all hung there and I had to force QuickPwn to quit. I downloaded PwnageTool, and got my custom .ipsw file created, and it said to update through iTunes. I went into iTunes, clicked restore, told it not to back up, and it restored it to factory settings.

Then it asked which backup I wanted to restore from. It doesn't show my new .ipsw anywhere. I clicked one from 1:00 this morning, when I made my first .ipsw, and it restored it to the normal, non-jailbroken mode.

Am I missing a crucial step? How do I get iTunes to find the .ipsw file on my desktop? Or is that necessary?

Update: Apparently I control/option-click the "restore" button, allowing me to find the ipsw file. That gets things started along, but then it gives me either error 21 or 1601. ??
