Apple Releases iTunes 8.2. Avoid It. (For Now…)

MuscleNerd, an iPhone Dev-Team member writes, “Today?s iTunes 8.2 update changes the way your computer talks to the device. This affects things like QuickPwn and PwnageTool when they try to identify what?s connected. Also, ssh over usb breaks due to same reasons. Fixes are in the works but for now avoid 8.2. (These are probably *not* anti-jailbreak maneuvers, just Apple changing protocols that normally only Apple cares about.)”
