Okay,

I jus got an Iphone 1st gen, bought it from a friend who got it unlocked (Vodaphone) & Jailbroken by his company. He bought the phone brandnew.

He's kindly given it to me, I'm on o2 & the actual phone works pukka, camera etc.

My problem is it wont connect with any PC (Windows XP Home Edition, Service Pack 3) or MAC. When the USB cable is connected (my Ipod cable, as the cable he gave me is simply a charger) it comes up with "USB device not recognized". In Device Manager it shows "Unknown Device" with no drivers, I've tried installing the usbaal thingy driver but still no work, the driver wizard wont let me select the file !!

I've tried startin & stoppin the Apple Mobile Device thingy & nothin. Searched the net for hours lookin for a solution, I jus wanna get the Ipod on the phone connected to me Itunes so I can give my Ipod to my little girl !!

Has anyone got any ideas ? Could the USB cable I got be incompatable ? as its a 1st Gen phone ? Or is there something I can do ? I've tried restorin the phone, DFU mode & restting it, uninstalled itunes etc, I'm sure the USB ports are version 2 & tried the ports on the back of the pc.

Please, someone help ? It's doin my sweed in !!

Thanks in advance !!
