the iphone could not be restored
First off, to tengence: go here Dev-Team Blog it is about half way down the page:
redsn0w 0.9.6rc18:
OS X
Windows
SECOND: Ok, I tried to restore this morning so I could start the JB process. My first step was to Restore and update firmware. I have tried by Holding down the option button (Macbook pro) and clicking on Restore in iTunes. I browse to the ipsw file that iTunes downloaded and choose it. I get the following error message: "the iphone could not be restored. the device isn't eligible for the requested build."
I also tried choosing the ipsw from the pawnage download and get the same error message??
--------------UPDATE-------------------------
I figured it out. I had to open TinyUmbrella and uncheck "use Cydia to verify"
