if you're tired of waiting for iOS 9 while all of your developer friends are living it up then why not just install it yourself I'm high out to Houston with pocket now and let's take a look at how to install the iOS 9 Developer Preview without a developer account the very first step you're going to want to take in stirring this whole process is going to I mg/dl com which stands for I mods own downloads and this is where we're going to get all the different files that we need to do these side loading including the iOS 9 beta as well as registering our udid we'll touch on that in just a second so first things first you just want to go to download iOS 9 beta just go ahead and click on that and then you're going to want to find the correct download for your specific device so if you got an iphone 6 you're going to click on here if you have the ipad mini and so on so forth so i have the ipad made to the a14 89 and we're going to go ahead and choose one of these options you can either download the file as a torrent which is what i'm going to do or you can get it as a direct download i'm going to go with the torrent because they're typically faster in my experience so we're just going to click on that and here it'll just in just a second is going to auto download there it goes now if you choose to download with a torrent then you are gonna have to have a torrenting application like transmission on here I like transmission a lot just because it's got a clean interface and seems to work well for me but you know you can use whatever you want to and it downloads pretty quickly in my experience this one it's a 2.25 gigabyte file and here you can see it went from a couple of weeks and now it just keeps going down and down and we're just gonna go ahead and speed past that alright so it took about five minutes but the file is downloaded now so we're just going to go in close out of transmission and the next step here is to just open up that folder and we're going to unzip the file that just says iOS 9 beta and now inside that folder we've got the ipsw file and if you've ever dealt with any kind of iOS updates before with flashing them manually you're probably already familiar with ipsw files this is basically just the firmware its cell so the next step would be to open up itunes we need to do one quick thing before we do that so go ahead and go back to I'm on zone downloads you're going to want to click on udid registration and basically what we're doing here is anytime you're wanting to flash a Developer Preview onto your iPad or iPhone you need a developer account which costs a hundred dollars through apple and we're trying to avoid paying that much now this does still cost a little bit it's coming about eight US dollars but what they're doing here is essentially registering our device onto apple systems as a developer certified device so here it's going to ask for the udid and it says that you can find that by tapping the get my udid / imei button on the bottom of their main page so we need to navigate to the website on our iOS device we're going to go ahead and pick up the ipad mini and do that right now so again that's just I mg/dl calm and here we are so go ahead and just click show my udid right here and now pull up in just a second here we go now it's going to ask you to install this profile you're just going to hit install right up there and install again wants to ask you to verify and a third time install you definitely want to do that otherwise you're not gonna be able to get the information you need so once that loads here we go we've got our udid so if you tapped on register my udid on the last page it takes you to the same page we were just looking at on the desktop and where it gives us a little options right here we just come when I go ahead and just tap udid registration there's no need to go for these certificates unless you really feel that it's necessary we're also going to go in unto tech i mod care save ourselves another two dollars this is where it's going to ask for your billing info so you can go ahead and pay that to eight dollars and we're going to go ahead and fill that out and be right back so we went ahead and filled all that info out we placed our order and you can see up at the top of got a email from from a from I mg/dl we've already gotten that that's awesome now this is just saying that again the device is now udid registered and so what we can do now is go ahead and open up itunes on the computer and go ahead and start the next step in the process so once we're in I to this is the only step that's actually going to differ depending on if you're running on Mac or Windows if you're on Mac what you're gonna want to do is click on check for update but make sure you're holding option while you do it the only part where it differs here is on Windows you're going to hit shift instead now before you do any of this you do want to make sure you back up the device because this does have the potential of wiping off all of your files and you definitely want to make sure that doesn't happen so go ahead and back up everything first and once you're ready again hit ctrl or shift depending on your platform and while you're holding that button just go ahead and hit check for update that's going to pull up the manual search for an ipsw file so you're going to want to go ahead and navigate back to that folder and once you have found the file go ahead and just hit open and it's kind of say iTunes will open will update your ipad iOS 9 and we'll verify the update with Apple go ahead and hit update and now because you already registered your device with its udid it's going to go ahead and verify that it is okay to flash in the Developer Preview basically it's just telling you that it is a developer certified device and here in just a second the iPad should start to a go to an apple screen and here we go we've got the the hello start screen on here we're going to go ahead and just a swipe over and you can see update completed your iPad was successfully updated and a couple more steps to follow then you're done create a passcode I really don't want to so I'm just going to type 1 2 3 4 i'll disable that later and finally welcome to ipad get started and this should be there we go everything we already had on here now you can see factually as soon as i swipe over here this is the new Siri or not Syria the new spotlight screen this is a lot like Google now both in function and in location which is kind of nice there's a lot to do on here if we double tap the home button you can see we've got the new card style UI which I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about but you know there's a lot of stuff to play with an iOS 9 we're having some fun with that and then now you can too so I hope you guys enjoyed this vid you if you did be sure to give a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel and thanks for watching guys it's
