When I click on create IPSW it asks me to connect my Apple TV via USB. Even when I do it, it still won't work. Please help.

Worked perfect 4 me. You should just relax and let Seasonpass do everything else.If you are thinking should i try this or not - JUST DO IT.

I'm having problems getting into DFU mode. After I hold down the buttons for 7 seconds, iTunes opens but SeasonPass doesn't do anything more.

In my case, I had to keep my AppleTV plugged to jailbreak it.

Try plugging in your power cord and holding the menu/play buttons at the same time for seven seconds. Then once its recognized then pull the power cord out.
