iOS 6 activation not working? (Not registered)

I am a registered developer of the iPhone Developer Program, and I registered my iPhone 4S' UDID (just did a couple of hours ago). All handy dandy to upgrade to the new and amazing iOS 6 right? WRONG! After successfully installing iOS 6, I get the error, "This device is not regsiterd as part of the iPhone Developer Program". Another member of my development team got theirs working fine, but they had registered their udid earlier. I registered my UDID because this is a new phone. So if anyone else is having this problem... or has a solution.


Thanks for reading

We have an ios Enterprise Developer Program account. We distributed our apps via In-house. Yesterday we wanted to test our apps on iOS 6 ,so I inputed about 30 UDIDs of test-devices into iOS Provisioning Portal. But just 12 of them were installed iOS 6 properly. Othes reported:"This device is not regsiterd as part of the iPhone Developer Program". i had to restore some of them into 5.1.1 . Today i use "option+ checkupdate " to install, it works!!! what is going on?????😢

It's usually never a good idea to try installing right after the IOS Beta comes out, because the Activation Servers are always down. I should also mention that it may take a couple of hours after you add your UUID to the IOS Developer Server for the UUID to actually take effect. Therefore constantly deleting your UUID and re-adding it is not good at all.

EVERYONE I HAVE THE CURE FOR THIS IPHONE DISEASE. lol.

1.First you have to go to iTunes and click "restore" and let it restore your iPhone to whatever the newest version of iOS is available to the public (mine was 5.1 or something, I dont remember).


2.After this happens download the iOS6 beta to your desktop.


3.Now add the iPhone to your provisioned devices(Add development Device) for your developer profile.


4.Now go into itunes, with your iPhone connected, select your iPhone and OPTION+CLICK "check for update" and select the iOS6 file.


This just worked for me and I'm sure it will for you. I updated to ios6 but itunes wouldn't let me activate it because it wasn't added to my list of developer devices, and x-code wouldn't let me add the device because it wasn't activated. **** you apple!!!! But I do still Love you So... 😟 🙂
