iPod Touch Update 1.1.1 - Unknown error occurred, Wiped my iPod
After looking through my logs, the only relevant entry I can find is the following in iPodUpdater 3.log:
2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: device connected (isDFU = 0)
2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: error getting plugin interface for device: 0xe00002be
2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: an erorr occurred handling a connected device: 0x7d1
2007-09-27 18:06:56.000 iTunes[432:d03]: _AMRecoveryModeDeviceFinalize: 0x14caa540
This failure left that initial screen of the iPod plugin and iTunes symbol. I closed iTunes and relaunched it, as my iPod wasn't listed in the devices list. Upon relaunch, the iPod was detected but an error dialog appeared and said that my iPod was in a recovery state and had to be restored in order to work. So I restored my iPod and it updated it to 1.1.1.
I have done nothing special to my iPod, I've only had it for a few days, but this update wiped my iPod clean. This is absolutely unacceptable for an update and I am very disappointed in Apple for this. They claim they are keeping the platform locked so things like this don't occur, but clearly it isn't helping.
