Unable to complete activation - account not registered

I've had my iOS dev account for a while and just registsed my new iPhone. When I try and install the iOS7 ipsw I get the following error:


We’re unable to complete your activation.

This device is not registered as part of the iPhone Developer Program.If you are a member of the Program, please register your device in the iPhone Developer Program Portal.


Is there something I can do to push the activation, or do we have an ETA for when this will be available?

iPhone 5

I've tried everything... repeatedly... and I'm getting the same thing. I have no problems in XCode when I've restored back to iOS6, but each time I try to update to iOS7 (via iTunes or via XCode) I get "This device is not registered as part of the iPhone Developer Program."


Everything checks out in the Provisioning Portal, and like I said, iOS6 works peachy keen in XCode... but iOS7 just won't activate.

GUYS NO NEED TO DO DFU IF YOU HAVE XCODE- The reason you have to downgrade to 6.1.3 or lower is so that itunes gives you the "UPDATE" option- if you downgrade to the latest iOS 6 firmware you wont get the option to update-


KEY is that you update to iOS 7 and not restore- You can downgrade to any firmware through xcode- Its the easist- otherwise just downgrade to 6.1.3 or lower- ANYWAY you want to- After that- Update to iOS 7! Key is "UPDATE"
