Any chance you could email me with a copy of the 2.0 firmware for Mac? The volume limiter on the European iPods is a proper pain in the cheeks

Here's (http://ipodlounge.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=622) a thread with instructions on how to trick your Mac into uploading the US version firmware.

First of all, thanks very much for doing this - I'd given up on this to be honest.

If the oz version is similar to the european, on the grey iPod cd there should be a folder called iPod Installer and in that folder there is an archive called iPod2.pkg

If you could mail me that file I'd be very greatful.

Thanks again

Can I also make a request for the US version 2 of the iPod software?

I just bought a new iPod and I'm dissapointed that it doesn't go as loud as I want ;-( Email is on my profile - big thanks to any kind person that can help!

I just popped in my US CD (30GB) and did a search on "iPod2.pkg", but didn't find it. Anything else to look for?

Well obviously I don't know the contents of the US disk but it should be a pretty obvious file - biggish ~30MB and if you open it, it should launch an installer. If you can't find it never mind but thanks for trying.

On my UK disc, there is a folder called 'iPod Installer'. Inside that there is the file 'ipod2.pkg' - us poor UK folks are after the US version of this file ;-)

30Mb is too big to email, but if you can find it, I'm sure I can work a way for you to get it to me ;-)

Maybe mailing is too big, I agree!

But someone will have some kind of webspace, ftp server, carracho server or iDisk to upload it too?!?!?

30MB is not that big...

Is there some kind US-guy that is willing to help? Please!

thanx
