Apple has release iPhone and iPod Touch firmware OS software version 3.0.

The firmware 3.0 is a major update that adds tons of new features to the portable device. While all generations of original iPhone and iPhone 3G entitles to free upgrade to iPhone OS 3.0 software update, both 1st generation and 2nd generation iPod Touch 2G is required to pay $9.95 to upgrade to to OS 3.0.

Bypass and skip the payment to Apple. It’s obviously unfair practice by Apple towards iPod Touch, who properly do not incur recurring charges.
Use the following guide on how to upgrade and update to iPod Touch OS 3.0 software update firmware for free without cost.

Note: If the downloaded file is in ZIP format (iPod2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore.zip) , then rename the extension from .zip to .ipsw.
If the file name is been appended with .zip extension, such as iPod2,1_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw.zip, just remove the .zip off the filename.

If you encounter “an error occurred while processing your request” error message when attempting to download iPod Touch firmware, download the IPSW files from here (for 1st generation iPod Touch) or here (for 2nd generation iPod Touch).

Plug in and connect the iPod Touch to computer.

Run iTunes 8.2 or higher.

Select the iPod Touch from Devices list.

Optional but recommended, take a backup of the iPod in case of accidental file lost.

1) In Windows environment, press and hold Shift key and left click Restore.

2) In Mac OS X system, press and hold Option key and left click Restore.

For user who want to retain and save everything that has been uploaded and stored on iPod Touch or ensure that the media is untouched (not losing any files), follow these steps instead:

On the iTunes main screen, there should be 2 options: “Check for update” and “Restore”. Click on Check for update.

A web page showing the iPod Touch OS firmware 3.0 features and offering option to buy for $9.99 will be loaded and shown. Click on Cancel.

iTunes will return to the previous iPod Touch main page. However, the “Check for update” option has now been change to “Update.

In Windows environment, press and hold Shift key and left click Update.

In Mac OS X system, press and hold Option key and left click Update.

Locate and select iPod Touch OS 3.0 Apple Device Software Update IPSW file downloaded in step above.

The update process will start. iPod may reboot a few times.
Do not disconnect iPod Touch until iTunes has completed updating iPod Touch.
Once upgrading is done, the iPod Touch will be on OS firmware 3.0, for free without any cent been paid.

Optionally, if you have choose to restore iPod Tunes to firmware OS software 3.0 at factory default, iTunes will offer option to either create a new iPod or restore it from backup. 

For user already created a backup of iPod, just restore the date files to upgraded iPod Touch.


Note: If there is an error when iTunes attempts to recognize iPod Touch, just unplug and plug the iPod back in again.

  1. iPod Touch 3 0 firmware update

    This updates your iPod Touch to the latest 3.0 firmware.
    This is the orriginal update from apple, so no jailbraik yet.
    How to use:

    Check if you have a first generation or second generation iPod
    (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPod_Touch for details)

    Connect your Ipod, Open iTunes, hold SHIFT and press 'Check for
    Update' or 'Restore' (depends on if you want to update or a
    clean install). Select the appropriate firmware file. Update
    takes about 15 minutes.

    What if I fuck up?

    If you manage to brick your iPod, for example by turning of your
    machine during the update, you can always do a clean recovery by
    folowing these steps:

    1.Make sure iPod is completely powered off.
    2.Hold the home button while its off.
    3.While holding the Home button, connect the cable. The iPod should power on.
    4.Keep holding the Home button.
    5.The Connect to iTunes image should come up.
    6. Congrats, you in recovery mode.

    In I-tunes:

    1.Click SHIFT+recover
    2.Select the appropriate firmware file.

    note: On a MAC, use option-click instead of shift-click
