In this article, we will take you through the step-by-step procedure to jailbreak your iPhone on iOS 5.1.1 using Redsn0w for both Mac and Windows users.

You can follow these step-by-step instructions to jailbreak your iPhone:

Step 1: Download the latest version of Redsn0w and save it in a folder named "Redsn0w" on your desktop.

Step 2: Double click the Redsn0w zip file and extract the application to the Redsn0w folder and then launch the Redsn0w application.

Windows users should run Redsn0w as ‘Administrator’ (right-click on the Redsn0w exe and select 'Run as an Administrator').

Step 3: After launching Redsn0w, click on the Jailbreak button.

Step 4: Redsn0w will start the jailbreak process and go through the following three steps:

2. Processing

3. Finishing up

Step 5: Once the three steps are completed, Redsn0w will inform you that the jailbreak was successfully installed. But please wait, leave your device alone. Your iPhone will reboot on its own. After it has rebooted, wait for it respring again.

After the respring, your iPhone will be successfully jailbroken and you should be able to find the Cydia icon on the Home screen (please note that the Cydia icon may not be on the first page, so don't assume that your iPhone hasn't been successfully jailbroken, use Spotlight to search for it).
