Mar 4, PM in response to redelman In response to redelman They are for the developer to use in testing on real devices. And selling them can result in a permanent ban from the developer site. Reply Helpful Thread reply - more options Link to this Post.
User profile for user: stevejobsfan stevejobsfan Mar 4, PM in response to redelman In response to redelman udids are for developer use only. No, as stated in our terms and conditions. This is because the slot on our developer account is permanently taken. Apple does not allow us to "unregister" or change the UDID and reclaim the slot. This is why no other UDID registration site offers refunds either.
We have a fully automated system designed to process orders within about 5 seconds! However, registrations can be delayed if Apple's servers are down due to high demand. If there's a wait list, customers who purchased a Premium registration will be processed first. Approximately one year. If you do have your iOS device or developer account disabled as a result of this supposed crackdown, please send us feedback.
Update: In the time since we first posted this story, we've heard from a handful of developers who say they have indeed had their accounts shut down because they were selling UDID slots. The confusion underlying the original reporting of this story on various sites may have been due to the first two iOS 5 betas expiring at the same time as the dev account takedowns took place.
Some of our sources indicate this timing was accidental or coincidental, as Apple has been issuing takedowns of obvious UDID clearinghouse accounts for quite some time.
Although the crackdown does not appear to be as widespread as initial reports indicated, some UDID clearinghouse accounts have recently been deactivated, and users with devices associated with those accounts can expect their iOS devices to revert to an unusable state once their current iOS 5 betas expire.
The lesson here is twofold: If you're a developer, don't try to sell beta access to non-developers. If you're not a developer, don't try to buy access to betas. Sign up. Reports of iOS developer account shutdowns may be erroneous Updated. Rawson
