iOS 6: Device not Registered...Can't Rollback!

Really WTF Apple some devices are getting registered some not

 

Double check your device is correctly registered, and contact dev support?

 

Don't fret my friend.

Put in DFU mode, plug into iTunes, and restore. Try upgrading again after that.

Same crap happened to me yesterday.

 

I'm having same issue here. Also looks like the Developer Forums are also down on the site.

 

LOL how the hell did I miss that part?

Allow iTunes to download it.

 

I had the smae problem. Open XCode and open the Organiser window. You should be able to restore back to 5.1 there.

 

Yeah, weird.

Sorry man I'm not sure then.

 

Also, is it always a pain in the ass like this to install the latest betas?

Last night was a massive headache for me getting this to install and activate.

 

You said 5.1, which is no longer signed. Ensure you are using 5.1.1.

 

Or set up a new user profile and try restoring there, or at most install another version of OS X on an external drive and restore from iTunes there.

----------

If you press the restore button in iTunes, the latest version is downloaded ... which I think you said you tried?

 

Basically just those: iTunes would not even show the button to restore but XCode was fine. It would not do anything else with the phone as it was not activated but happily restored to 5.1. Note I did not manually download the ipsw or option-click restore: I chose 5.1 from the drop down in XCode and let it download it for me.

 

I'd have thought since Apple is still signing iOS 5.1.1 that a simple iTunes restore as normal would work. Really strange one.

 

Excellent.

Shift + restore or sync and restore button?

 

looks like servers are back up! the one I had issue with finally activated.

 

I was gonna ask if you had pre-release software activated in the portal?

 

Same thing happened to me. After trying all the hard stuff, I just clicked the restore button, no shift key, no dfu & it rolled back. As for the not activating idk ha.
