Incorrect Content-Type: must be textual to extract_string, JSON to extract_json.

[BleakFox]

Hello, when I click "i" then "1" (install alt store) and then I select to use a saved Apple ID account, the code in output is that:

Received response status code: 500
parse anisette data ret
Alert: Could not install AltStore.ipa to unknown.
    Incorrect Content-Type: must be textual to extract_string, JSON to extract_json.
Press any key to continue...

Exception: Incorrect Content-Type: must be textual to extract_string, JSON to extract_json.
 0# 0x00000000005CF298
 1# 0x000000000099EC2C

The same thing happens when I try to DON'T use a saved Apple ID account, but the error code is the same... please can anyone help me? I'm already using the last version of the code in ubuntu 22.04 terminal, and the last Alt Store release in IOS..

Same with ubuntu 22.04.2 and ios 16.5.1 on SE2020. Worked fine a week ago

so will the AltServer code be fixed on a future update?

[powenn]

so will the AltServer code be fixed on a future update?

Yes The current state of rewriting

Tether mode : installing and refreshing works WiFi mode : installing works , refreshing having issues

Added features Select device when multi devices detect

To-Do Check update and update the script and resources

@powenn it doesn't work... When i run the main.py:

then if I try "i" and write my AppleID (mail) and the password of it, I get in output that AppleID or password is incorrect, but that's not true...

[powenn]

Pretty sure that was not code issue,please check your credential again

Or maybe try others AppleID

[BleakFox]

I tried another time, but i get back first an error that said that was impossible to install alt store on my account at the moment, and then on my iphone I have been logged out from my AppleID account and I had to reset my AppleID password because it said my account was unsafe...

[powenn]

That's caused by Apple policy not the script

[BleakFox]

okay so I can just try another time without any risk for my account?

[powenn]

I can't promise that
