As for us, the apple store employee was very helpful and didn’t charge us a cent. He hooked the iPod to his computer behind him and told us to wait 5 minutes. Once the initialization was complete, we asked him for the fwid and he gave it to us.

I couldn’t find a work around to initialize the iPod, so I think you’ll have to find the apple store or a friend with 10.4.8 or greater.

Leave me a comment and let me know if it worked, or if you needed to do something else that I hadn’t mentioned.

I want to know if I could do it myself or if Apple Store did it would they charge me? I get all the other steps but what do you mean by “formatting your iPod through iTunes”?

]]> Comment on Bateman IP Rocks: Sponsoring Seth Godin by Matthew Reinbold http://www.doodgical.com/bateman-ip-rocks-sponsoring-seth-godin/#comment-7 Matthew Reinbold Thu, 17 May 2007 20:10:46 +0000 http://www.doodgical.com/bateman-ip-rocks-sponsoring-seth-godin/#comment-7 Hey, thanks for promoting the event! Glad to have Bateman IP Law on board as a sponsor. Just a quick note about registration - at this point it is closed. However, people can still pay to see Seth Godin at the door the day of the event. Considering that people in the past have paid $1000 to see Seth speak $50 is a great deal. Sorry for any confusion. Hey, thanks for promoting the event!
