i challenge you, if you're bored, to find someone with a macintosh who has successfully restored an older ipod on any operating system equal to, or older than, yosemite.
you won't find it. in fact, your search should reveal a bounty of M1/2/3 idiots (sorry, overpaying for a suped up mobile SoC in a full-fledged offering makes you one) just discovering this issue.
it's quite pathetic people continue to defend this brand when it has paid NO attention to its operating system development.

i'm tired of seeing this same bloody warning in my log for OVER TEN YEARS.
and yet, somehow some way, these fools have the money to make the organisation in the UI worse and add rainbow colour themes to the menubar. it shows you a company with a completely perverted list of priorities.
"lipstick on a pig" and all that.
i can't wait to move back to windows. the fact i'm saying I CAN RESTORE A ****ING IPOD ON A WINDOWS COMPUTER BUT NOT A MAC, LIKE OPEN YOUR EYES FANBOYS. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE MAD MODS, DON'T LET THE SNITCH TAKE THIS POST DOWN.
and then you guys guys like, ahem, an alleged "neuropsychology guy" complaining, saying he's "tired" of people stating the hard facts and he doesn't want to come on here anymore to read these real issues. he is the typical example of who TIM APPUL is appealing to.
"positive news only". neuropsychology guy, my ass. if he really understood the philosophical definition, then he wouldn't exhibit behaviour that has become an academic exercise for this field.
