I'll just say this once. You do not need to restore before before you update to the beta. The only errors I got happened because I forgot to update iTunes before I did it. Just because you got errors does not mean everyone did. Are you slow?
Yes and personally I think Apple should be giving me $99 to test buggy Software. Its a Joke!

Same here
Getting an error when updating is hit or miss (without a dev account). Some people got it, and some people didn't.

The $99 isn't JUST for the betas, it's for all the tools you need to develop and submit apps.

Thank you! I know wtf I'm talking about when I say you DO NOT have to restore before you update to the beta.
So who's the one that does not know nicolascrompton? lol You made like 25 posts on this thread and brought nothing to the table. I swear noobs should have to take a test before they can post here...lol
This I know but you gotta admit if it was free to test beta software it would be so much better for everyone involved. No profiteering from selling UDID slots and all that???
Sure, but them Apple can be held responsible if something happens to your device, etc. When you purchase the account, you're saying you're responsible for whatever happens.
How many times do I have to say this: it's HIT or MISS. Restoring GUARANTEES you don't get the error. If you update, you MAY or MAY NOT get the error.
The only time I've gotten errors is when iTunes is not the required version to update the software. Even under a dev account
Look at what you said."you can't just simply update" You ****ing noob Dumbass! I was saying you don't have to restore, you were swearing up and down you have to. If it didn't work as an update for you doesn't mean it won't for others you prick. Why restore if not necessary?
I think you are the one that can't read or you just can't remember what you say. Either way I don't think you're too sharp

And after I had researched it I then corrected myself in the other six or so other posts after that...

I don't think it was until 11 in the UK that ML was seeded was it?

9to5Mac made their post regarding the release of it right about this time yesterday. Mark Gurmans tweet said 5:15pm
Yea...after you researched. The problem is I knew what the hell I was talking about before and after you did your research. Do your research next time before you start insulting people kid, or else you just make yourself look dumb like you did.

Apple can make you accept similar Terms and Conditions for the beta download. Also they could introduce an official "downgrade to last stable iOS version" option in iTunes and then say "absolutely no support for beta software, downgrade first" (of course unless it's an obvious hardware malfunction).
I don't see Apple having a particular problem with average customers running beta software. Compared to all the folks out there doing whatever the hell they want with jailbroken phones (including making their iOS look like ****), a clean beta installation would rather improve Apple's image.
Then developers would rage after all these years of paying 99 dollars. It's just not something they'd do at this point.
Jailbreaking is something Apple condemns and something they didn't even create so you can't really compare this to betas.
