iTunes keeps wanting to setup my iPhone

[uncleiven]

All of a sudden my iPhone stopped showing up in iTunes for wireless sync. When I then connect it via cable it pops up showing the Set Up Your iPhone screen where I can either setup as a new iPhone or restore from a back up.

So, I have restored from a recent back up but it keeps going back to the same setup screen, any ideas.

Running iOS5 Beta 5 and iTunes Beta 5.

Cheers

Look in the Apple developer forums for a discussion and solution to this.

You don't have to do a restore or setup as new. It's much easier than that.

Please elaborate, though setting up as new didn't actually do anything, it just re-synced my iPhone, then I could sync/backup as normal via wireless.

tho it may happen again, so either do that each time, or just turn off wifi syncing til next beta

I lost all of my music when I did that.
Hours lost having to re-sync it all.

well it's happened to me about 5 times and i didn't lose any music. on one occassion it messed up ringtones and i had to remove and re-add them, but that was it.

RaceTripper probably doesn't want to violate the NDA all Developers are under.

If you are running iOS 5 by the rules you too have access to these private forums. If not, why not wait until it is officially ready for release?
