You know of course that you don't need iTunes for your iPod?
Also:
- XP64 is garbage (you should never get it in the first place)
- Even if you don't know how to use iPod without iTunes you could just ask someone who has normal (ie working) Windows version installed and do your update/backup whatever on their comp?


Im planning to switch to Windows 7 soon when I get back home. Like I stated in my post, I did try jailbreaking on my friend's computer and it succeeded. But like I said, i needed WiFi for the Cydia files, and i dont have any place for WiFi unless i pay. I can't use iTunes so thats why I said im using Sharepod now.

There's a ton of apps that can manage an ipod. To show you what I mean:

Try searching for Ipod, itunes and all related things and look at alternatives to stuff and try things with many likes



Yah, like I said im using Sharepod atm.

Whats it mean to "jailbreak" an ipod?


I also don't know. I think the OP should have started with some definitions or a better description of what the problem was. All I got out of it was "I broke my ipod because I tried to mess with it. A lot of people helped me out but it still took me years and I still failed." Maybe I am misunderstanding but the communication problem definitely isn't on my end.

I think jailbreaking means cracking the iPod firmware so that pirated apps and games will run on it. Normally you have to buy everything through the apple store. It's like modding your ps2 so it will run games from burned cds.
It's more than that. It also opens up a wider array of programs, many of which are legal, and things like Flash support and multitasking. *gasp*

I was thinking of rooting my Droid so I can overclock it, but it's snappy enough as is. ^^



That pretty much explains it mostly.

The only official way to obtain third-party applications for the iPod Touch is Apple's App Store, which is a branch of iTunes Store. The App Store application, available in all versions of the iPhone OS from iPhone OS 2.0 onwards, allows users to browse and download applications from a single online repository (hosted by Apple) with the iTunes Store. To develop such software, a software development kit (SDK) was officially announced on March 6, 2008, at an Apple Town Hall meeting.[23] The iPhone SDK allows developers to make applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch after paying a fee to join the development team. The developer can then set the price for the applications they develop and will receive 70% of money earned. The developer can also opt to release the application for free and will not pay any additional costs.

Shortly after the iPod Touch was released, hackers were able to "jailbreak" the device through a TIFF exploit. The resulting application enabled the user to download a selection of unofficial third-party programs. Some of these give the user more control over the iPod Touch than is officially available, and also make it possible to install Linux operating systems on the device. All officially released versions of the iPhone OS through 3.0 can be jailbroken,[24][25] but version 3.1 could not at the time it was released.[26] Servicing an iPod Touch after jailbreaking or other modifications made by unofficial means is not covered by Apple's warranty.[27]
