This fully works on beta 3.
 
I've just downloaded Beta 4 and tried to install but this is the error message i'm getting:

The iPhone could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build

Any Ideas?
 
Also getting "This device is not eligible for requested device" message too.

Are you getting that OTA or via iTunes? I am getting the same thing on on connected device. Updated to the new version of iTunes

Got the OTA then went in via Xcode- can see the update-
 
Maybe the freeriders have been sorted away. Perhaps only those apple-id's with actual dev-accounts can use beta 4 ?
 
Change your device language to English and reboot!

Restarting both my iPhone and iPad caused the OTA to show up and work. The iPad update is ~130 mb, they're both going now. Will update if they both work.

I am now able to connect via OTA so fingers crossed 😉
 
For all those where Over the air update is failing: I had the same problem - rebooted the device, went to the settings again to try again and it had automatically started after the reboot ... its downloading now 🙂 ... so if the OTA update is failing, try to reboot the device
 
OTA updated just started for me, after a few minutes of error.

Updated to iTunes 10.5 b4 at home via btmm. Remote Desktop does a body good.
