I ran into the issue by forgetting to register the UDID in the dev center before installing the 7.1 beta 2... so worked it out on my Windows laptop.


Just go to device manager, find the 'Apple iPad' on the Generic USB Hub, right click and select 'properties'. Then in the new window, select the 'details' tab and in the propery dropdown, select the "Last Known Parent", then the UDID is the number after the last '\'


Good luck 🙂
