No need to use TinyUmbrella when restoring 5.0.1, make sure you don't have any references to gs.apple.com in your HOSTS file or you won't be able to restore. It would also help if you told use the error number you are getting as there are literally hundreds of iTunes errors.
When i try backing up and restoring it i get the 3194 error, which is why i was using TU.
Are you trying to upgrade to iOS 5.0 or 5.0.1? If it's 5.0, do you have SHSH blobs for that firmware version? If it's no, you'll have to upgrade to iOS 5.0.1, as that's the only one you can go to without blobs.
If you have SHSH blobs for 5.0, then never mind...

3194 either means that you are trying to restore an old firmware or you're iTunes is not updated.

All you do is hit "restore" in iTunes, thats it. If you require unlock you will need to use sn0wbreeze or redsn0w to make a custom 5.0.1 firmware to restore to preserve your baseband.
