This apple id has restored to too many devices in the last 90 days - seriously?
When restoring my backup from iCloud - to my new iPad Mini - I get this message "this apple id has restored to too many devices in the last 90 days".
Since September:
- we upgraded 4 iPhone 4/4S to iPhone 5's
- replaced 2 iPad 3's with two new iPad Mini's.
- had to replace 2 of the iPhone 5's that were defective , troubleshooting each of these iPhones - they were wiped and restored from iCloud backup.
- now I'm in the process of replacing 2 more iPad's with mini's w/cellular ... has resulted in a very offensive message from iTunes - that "this apple id has restored to too many devices in the last 90 days".
So 10+ restores are too many with 8 devices that were all upgraded within 2 months ... Apple does not want us to continue to purchase and upgrade our Apple products?

What in the world does this have to do with anything?
Your Apple ID is limited to 10 iDevices*. You might have to call Apple or just disassociate your old devices from the account.
*This is the least fortunate thing I've read in a good long while. I mean what the heck. This is an 'Apple down the tubes' thing.
