PLEASE HELP!

I tried restoring my iPhone 4S but then it says that they're unable to complete the activation because "The device is not registered as part of the iPhone Developer Program." I am not a developer and I don't need to register my iPhone for that. PLEASE HELP!

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

This would come up if you are trying to install the iOS 6 beta, which is only available to delvelopers. Try deleting any .ipsw files and try restoring again. You will find these at one of the following locations:


  1. Windows XP : Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
  2. Vista/Windows 7: Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
  3. Mac: ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
