Cannot register iPhone - Help!

I've been trying, with no luck, to register my iPhone as a device via xcode and manually on https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/device/deviceCreate.action

I have an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.4. My target is set to 8.4 and all certificates for the provisioning profile requested. xcode always states "Unable to create a provisioning profile because your team has no devices registered in the Member Center. Please connect a device, enable it for development, and add it to the Member Center using the Organizer."

When I try to register manually, I enter the device name and UDID and the web page simply spins stating "Loading". I've let this run for north of 30 minutes, which can't be right.

So essentially, I'm stuck. Any thoughts on what could be going on here?

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, does your UDID start with the letters"FFF"? If so, it's not the actually UDID, but a fake given for security purposes. To get the real one: Plug your device to a computer, launch iTunes (or Xcode) and copy the displayed UDID.

If that isn't the case, have you tried registering any other devices, to see if it has something to do with that UDID/Device as opposed to something funky happening on the Apple site?

Yeah I tried both the encrypted UDID and one I grabbed using the UDID app from the AppStore.

Update - received a reply from Apple where they said they knew there was an issue with manually registering devices. Looks like they've resolved it in the last 24 hrs.

Thanks for your help!
