Hi All,

I have a fleet of old iPods that were setup with a custom App years ago. Recently due to an issue with the MacBook used to supervise the fleet I have needed to reset each of the iPods (using iTunes restore).

I have received a new version of the App (from the Developer) and am now proceeding to install it onto the newly restored iPods. In order to install the App I first need to load each iPods UDID into our Developer Account, and then download an appropriate provisioning profile. What I find interesting is that there were only a handful of UDIDs listed under our account; however we literally have a fleet of hundres of iPods.

My question is has it always been necessary to upload UDIDs, to a Developer account, then download a provisioning profile before installing Apps?

Kind Regards,

Davo
