I'm getting the "you device is not eligible for requested build" error in iTunes. Never had this before. Anyone here who did successfully activate?

- techosaurus 15y agoSame thing here.. I was searching the error in Google and found a bunch of blog/forum posts saying that adding the following comment line to /etc/hosts, restarting iTunes, and trying it works: # 74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com I was totally skeptical because it's a comment line, but I thought, "wtf, i'll give it a shot. it's just the hosts file." and it worked. iPhone is restoring now with 9a5274d.
