iOS 5.0.1 Jailbreak Problem?

Hey Guys. :).

After much research and questioning, i have now realised that i have a somewhat unique problem. i might be wrong but this problem hasnt even been mentioned on the Dev-Team site. The Yahoo! Answers community are my last hope. Please Respond Fast!

Im trying to Jailbreak my Ipod Touch 4G (iOS 5.0.1) for the second time, but Redsn0w 0.9.10b5c nor Redsn0w 0.9.10b1c are recognising it whilst it is in DFU Mode.

Here is what i do and here is the result:

1) I Start-Up Redsn0w program.

2) Click Jailbreak

3) Hold The Power Button for 3 Seconds

4) then Hold Both the power button And the Home Button for 10 Seconds.

5) then Release The Power Button and Hold The Home Button for a further 10-15 seconds.

but still Redsn0w is unable to recognise it. i know im following the DFU Mode process correctly because my computer attempts to install my ipod software under the name of "Apple Mobile Device (DFU Mode)". so at this point, Redsn0w cant say its not in DFU Mode because it is.

i have jailbroken my ipod before successfully, but due to a Respring loop, i had to restore my original iOS Software using iTunes and i successfully retrieved my music and apps from my iCloud backup.

i was wondering if it is still possible to jailbreak my ipod even though i had to restore it due to the respring loop. and if it is possible, why isnt Redsn0w recognising my device whilst it is in DFU Mode??
