I have a legitimate developer account and my UDID's registered (I've had other beta's activate fine), but the servers continue to refuse to activate my iOS6 beta, telling me that I am not subscribed.

Is anyone else having this problem?
 
Yes, its driving me crazy,

Anyone got a work around for this, i cant get it to work no matter what i try.

Iphone 4 restored to ios6 fine
Iphone 4s restored to ios fine.

ipad 3g wont activate.
 
I'm sure it's not "bricked" you can downgrade


This has happened before.

Stop and think "Me and how many other people are flooding the activation servers right now to try out this shiny new beta?!?!?!"

Wait...
 
I'm having the exact same problem. I added my iphone's id this morning, but it still won't work. I just downgraded to 5.1. I might wait a while to do iOS 6 Beta
 
It usually takes 24 hours for the udid to activate after it is first added.

Occasionally, though I've had them go right away. However, this UDID has been active on my account for... almost 6 months now.
 
My 4s activated fine, but my new iPad will not activate. We will just have to be patient I guess.
 
So wait. You think you're the only person in the world activating your OS6 beta right now?

No, I'm fairly certain that I'm not. However, it's a relevant question: there should be no reason that a developer with a registered UDID that's activated successfully on prior occasion should receive an error regarding registration, or lack thereof. Finding out if this is a widespread issue, or an isolated incident, is a relevant inquiry, although I genuinely appreciate your advice to "just wait" - it was extremely helpful, and I'm not sure I would have come up with such a brilliant solution on my own. Cheers!
 
Contrarily, my iPad 3 activated just fine - and it's been registered for less time than my iPhone. I wonder if this is primarily an iPhone issue?

Edit: I see that people are having iPad activation issues as well.
 
Well, I think I will hold off on installing on my iPad until someone lets us know that they could activate.

I've tried activating my 4s and my 3rd gen iPad and am having the same issue. Frustrating.
 
same goes for me here

and for me: :(

I guess everyone and their dog is trying to activate now and it's overloading the servers.

I'm on Wifi iPad 3rd gen. with valid developers account.

I will post again if/when I'm successful activating.
