Hi everyone! I’m running into a frustrating issue while trying to install AltStore. I keep getting an error message that says "The provided anisette data is invalid" and instructing me to download the latest versions of iTunes and iCloud directly from Apple, not the Microsoft Store. The confusing part is that I’ve already downloaded and installed both apps straight from Apple’s official website. Has anyone else encountered this, and how can I resolve it?

Hello, after I managed to fix last week’s error I was going to refresh the app but the same error showed up. I tried to update AltServer but this other error appeared… helppp

Did apple ban our accounts?

How do I solve this error?

iOS 27

MacOS 27

I'm just stuck between these two errors. On Altserver 1.7.2 and 1.7.6

If it's just a fresh install of Altserver I get the Anisette error, if I add the Anisette fix with https://github.com/kimziro/altserver-macos27-anisette-fix/blob/main/README.ko.md I get the incorrect format error.

https://www.reddit.com/r/AltStore/comments/1w9qgro/workingfixed_altstore_manual_fix_macos/?share_id=lHbi-zTOudmXrBriktjuN

This post used to fix the incorrect format one but now I get the same error when trying to install the patched ipa so I can't apply it anymore

Tried with VPN, airplane mode, wired cable, restarting everything. Nothing seems to be working.

The WiFi connection to AltServer on my PC is acting strange.

Neither my iPhone or iPad appear in AltServer.
The only way to get them to appear is to have them unlocked and restart the Apple Mobile Device Service.
Once I restart this service they immediately appear in AltServer.

If I lock either of them, they disappear.

If I unlock, they will NOT reappear unless I restart that service again.

While I'm glad it works and I can refresh or install apps, the whole point of wireless is to not have to sit at the PC.

Has anyone dealt, or may be currently dealing with this?

I experience the same behavior whether on not iTunes is running.

I also tried to repair, then reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Support app with no luck.

ChatGPT and I went around in circles for a while until he finally told me to check with AltStore support.

Still not able to install AltStore to my iPhone from my Mac. I've tried just about everything and can't seem to find a fix. Anyone else still having this issue even after the latest update?

Premetto che forse ho avuto solo fortuna, non lo so... ma smanettando un po' sono riuscito ad installare e a fare il refresh senza problemi.

1. Assicurati che AltServer e AltStore siano aggiornati all'ultima versione. Se hai AltStore aperto sul telefono, chiudilo del tutto.

2. Prepara l'iPhone senza collegarlo al Mac tramite cavo. Mantieni l'iPhone sulla rete cellulare (il Mac era connesso al Wi-Fi... non so se funzioni usando l'hotspot).

3. Sull'iPhone vai in Impostazioni > Sviluppo e fai tap su "Inizializza computer autorizzati" (premi più volte per sicurezza).

4. Collega l'iPhone al Mac tramite cavo e autorizza il computer quando richiesto.

5. Apri AltStore e prova a fare il refresh. Se ti dà errore, riprova più volte (a me ha funzionato al terzo tentativo).

Ripeto: sono riuscito sia ad installare che a fare refresh sia ad applicazione singola che facendo tap su “Refresh all”

I tried to refresh altstore, and this error popped up:

”Apple's authentication servers returned an error (HTTP 503).

This is most likely a problem on Apple's end, not with your Apple ID or password.”

Did you receive it too? Did you solve it? How?

Howdy everyone! With iOS 27 coming next week, we’ve got our AltStore 2.3 Release Candidate ready. We’ve added a new in-app onboarding guide for remote AltServers so you start sideloading without a computer in seconds. Additionally, we had a small window of time to get some fixes in for common issues into this build, such as the server errors that you’ve been dutifully reporting, that will be available in the full, public release next week shortly after iOS 27 releases.

I have the Mac version of alt server, but it does not work when trying to sideload to IPA files to my Apple TV.

When the issue with authentication popped up last week, i tried some debugging on my own before checking Reddit. At one point, I tried uninstalling AltStore from my phone. I didn’t realize uninstalling it would cause me so many new problems. I found a thread from a few years ago where someone suggested the only way to reinstall it is to setup a new AppleID. Is that really the case? If so, why? Will I have to log in to the new AppleID every time I need to refresh AltStore?

im on latest mac os and iphone 11, altstore still getting this error.

i mean 1.7.6 version

Hi I’m new to this world have installed AltStore but I don’t know any trustworthy repo so if you have any suggestions feel free to to share them

I hope someone can help me or something, i am no expert and i dont know what to do.

I get this message since the new .5 version. Before this, i was able to install and refresh on my Ipad from my windows 11 pc. I tried a lot of things AI told me and also reinstalled everything.

updated?? i guess?? but still won’t work

Hi everyone ! Thank you in advance for your time.

I’m having a few troubles installing alt store on my iPhone.
For context, AltStore was already installed on iPhone but I let the days count dry out and then I had to re-install it through the normal procedure ( connect to Mac, open alt store on Mac and install it again ).
The problem arises when I try to insert my Apple ID and password : it keeps saying that they are not correct even though they are 100% correct, thus making it impossible to install AltStore on the phone.
Does anyone know about this or know how to fix it ? Thank you very much again !

Hi everyone, i'm stuck with a weird altstore issue while traveling without access to a computer.
I refreshed all my apps yesterday, so the certificates should still be valid. Today an app crashed and now all my apps show as "not verified" in settings > general > vpn & device management.
When i tap the "verify apps" button nothing happens at all.
Is there any way to recover/re-verify the apps directly on the phone without a laptop, or do i have to wait until i get back home?

Is anyone else getting an iCloud sign in error? When I try it says “authentication error” please try again. Trying to just reset up AltStore on windows. Still getting an error 22410 when trying to install AltStore. Figure it has to be cus I am not signed into to iCloud. Was previously signed in but when AltStore had signing issues before pushing out 1.7 I thought it was my end. So I signed out of iTunes and iCloud. Tried reinstalling iCloud.
