Hey, I'm part of the developer programe and i tried to update my iPad 1st gen to iOS beta 3, when doing so the iPad went into recovery mode and every time that i try to restore the iPad i get error 1600 on iTunes.

The screen is constantly black ( the white usb and iTunes logo that normally aperas when the iPad has to restore is not there)

i have tried holding option and then hitting restore to choose iOS beta 3 but it won't let me select that file.

If anyone has any suggestions id be very grateful, I've sent off the iPad to see would apple fix it but since i was loading ios5 they won't touch it.....

Have you got iTunes 10.5 installed on your computer and not 10.3 like everyone else?

Also you cannot go back once you update to iOS 5

yea i have 10.5 beta 3 itunes and i know that you can't go back too...

Im just trying to get the iPad out of the dfu mode i think its called so that i can run the iPad in ios5... well basically to get it to work so it docent become a paperweight

i just got it out of dfu mode again, its alive once again


after a lot of google'ing someone had said to hold the power and home button for 10 seconds and that did the trick

my iPad went back to 4.3.4 somehow and is still syncing all the data back onto it...after nearly breaking the iPad I'm half tempted to stick with 4.3.4 for a bit longer.. just incase....
