Hi there,

I upgraded to 3.0 successfully and activated.

For some reason, the iPhone has gone into pre-activation mode and iTunes said my 3.0 has "expired".

Any idea why?
 
and it seems the phone is activated...but...an iTunes pop up says

"Your iPhone is using an expired version"

and then on the iTunes page it says

"You are using the latest version"
 
I never heard of an "expired version" of iPhone software. Can someone elaborate on this?
 
Here is this popup...

are you running beta 1? That might just have expired as beta 2 has been around for a week now.

You have to get beta 2 from your dev portal. Your beta 1 expired. And people doubted me when I said they'd have an expiration date :p
 
Oh man! This is scary! Are you guys sure your "developer" didn't take you off his list??
 
Mine too. I'm pretty sure Beta 2 expired since they Apple just enabled Push notification. Wait for the torrent sites I guess. Sucks. I should have left well enough alone...
 
I think we would have heard if Beta 3 was out, and I doubt it would expire the same day.
 
Check your device Registration

GO to the portal and readd you UUID and star over.

I'm using beta 2 on both my devices, I don't get that. And push was turned on almost a week ago (the 4th was the date it got turned on), they just got around to sending out the email. Beta 2 is not expired.
 
Are they registered

If they are registered and the UUID are corrected loaded to the portal and you can not get it to work, submit a support ticket. I am assuming that you are all developers
 
Even if the UDID is submitted to the dev portal, the ipod touch/iphone must have the newer version of 3.0 installed. Pretty sure the betas get the plug pulled on the old versions.
 
Question:

I am a tester for a developer, and my UDID is registered through his account. Does that mean he has to send me the link for the new Beta 3 when it comes out, or is there somewhere that I can download it myself?
 
All 3.0 beta 1 has expired. If you are not a developer and you put 3.0 on your iPhone through a developer or paid for it through a developer...you must contact that developer that gave you beta 1 and have them send you beta 2. You all should have done this last week as each beta will expire after a new one is released.

Now we find out how many will have to downgrade cause that new developer got his SDK paid for and could care less about downloading and sending out any updates.

Good Luck

They should not be sending anything. You are not allow to send the file around, anyone that needs the file should log into the portal and download directly. If you are a tester and they did not give you the chance to get the update I would question them

All of my testers have access to the portal to download the updates.
