Is that really so urgent? The majority of the people using iOS 7 are developers, understand apps will be buggy under it and wouldn't leave a bad review. I'm sure an extra few hours wait won't make too much difference :)

I don't know about that. There's a huge community of non-developers who, for reasons I cannot comprehend, love to put beta OSes on their phones. I'd wager they outnumber legitimate developers using the beta by a hefty margin. And a lot of them don't understand the implications of doing this. Stories of unjustified bad reviews being left by users like these due to poor behavior on iOS 7 are really common in the commun…

Yeah I had a flatmate who was a complete Apple fanatic and would torrent beta-versions of all their software, so he always had the cutting edge revision of OSX and iOS, even though he was not very technically inclined. He just liked having the newest and latest.

The entire Apple dev center is down. That makes it impossible to download the iOS or Mac SDKs, including the iOS 7 beta. It's also not possible to provision new devices or update expired certificates. The developer forums are down too, which is somewhat frustrating since that's the only place we can discuss the still-under-NDA iOS 7. iTunes connect appears to be up. Apologies for those who posted this earlier. The he…

No forum means no complaints which future developers can look back on...

The simpler explanation is that the cluster running all developer-related sites is down. It doesn't always have to be a conspiracy.

I've managed to successfully provision new devices and run dev apps on them yesterday using xcode's organizer, so at least there's that.

Did you need to do anything special? Keeps timing out when I try to use it.

No. I had to add a few new iPads, so I opened the organizer, clicked the 'use for development' button and it was good. It took a little bit for the actual provisioning profile to update but I was able to run the dev app on the device right away.

This was yesterday morning. I haven't tried today, though.

Just when you need to send an adhoc build.....

Or download the command line tools! The downside of all this nice Xcode integration.

The URI is from https://github.com/jwaldrip/dev-setup/blob/master/setup_envi... , which looks trustworthy enough. Use at your own risk though.
