Couldn't load Mobiledevice.dll redsn0w error 126

[nathanajah]

Hi, I'm an ipod touch 4g user, just updated to iOS 6.0.1.

I want to jailbreak the device using redsn0w 0.9.15b3, but when I run it, it shows the message "Couldn't load Mobiledevice.dll (error 126)". It doesn't even recognize my ipod when I booted into DFU! (my old redsn0w, 0.9.10b5c can detect it though, but it doesn't support iOS 6.0.1, does it?)

After some googling, I found out that there's many mobiledevice.dll error, but most of the time it's error 127, not error 126. I tried the solutions online (compatibility mode, run as administrator, copying mobiledevice.dll to redsn0w folder), but nothing seems to work yet.

Any idea how to fix it?

Assuming you run a Windows PC, try using sn0wbreeze instead.

Update to the latest iTunes. It will update and resolve all driver issues

I think my iTunes is the latest version. I tried sn0wbreeze, but I got error 3194 when trying to use the ipsw.

Update your hosts file and enter DFU mode to get rid of error 3194.

I finally opted to wait for evasi0n instead, which worked.
Thanks anyway
