First off, what kind of iPad are you trying to jailbreak? The iPad1 or the iPad2. Because the redsn0w jailbreak only works on the iPad1.

For the iPad2, the only version that can be jailbroken is iOS 4.3.3. And, you can't load that firmware on your iPad unless you have SHSH blobs saved for that (which you can't save anymore...you had to have them saved from before July).

Take a look at this sticky for more info: http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/44596-official-ipad2-jailbreak-thread.html

Oh, and to answer your question, no, you cannot jailbreak iOS 4.3.5 using 4.3.3 firmware.

I'm talking about ipad 1.. And i know that i cant update it to 4.3.3 thats y i had to update 4.3.5 sadly.. So the answer is no i cant jb ios 4.3.5 with 4.3.3? I should download 4.3.4 ?

Correct, you must download and have iOS 4.3.4 handy (for redsn0w to "point" at) in order for redsn0w to work. And no, iOS 4.3.3 won't work (that's not how redsn0w was written...).

Follow the steps outlined here: http://www.ipadforums.net/jailbreak...tutorial-jailbreak-ipad1-redsn0w-windows.html

...and you'll be fine.

Oh, and have you tried to download the 4.3.4 IPSW from our sticky here: http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/24939-official-apple-ios-firmware-download-links-ipad.html

Sometimes, it may be faster than going to the Apple site.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.

P.S. Sorry for the confusion. You didn't say what version your iPad is ... and we get plenty of iPad2 owners who attempt this (or want to). Apologies for "lumping" you in with that group...

Sure i'm downloading it now as we speak.. And no worries i've been with the iphone forum for quite a while and i know my way around those things
However you guys are the ones who i should always check with in order not to get stuck somewhere

Thanks
