Pairing file you need to email the file to yourself or use iTunes to Transfer the file

celest marlin
#

Yeah but there is no file selection thing on the app

fossil fiber
#

You need to reset it

celest marlin
#

I did

fossil fiber
#

SideStore

#

Settings

#

Reset pairing file

celest marlin
#

Yeah ik I did that nothing happened

fossil fiber
#

Reboot the device

#

Even SideStore tells you to close the app

#

Resetting the file SideStore will ask to close the app

celest marlin
#

bro i did

fossil fiber
#

Then next time you open SideStore it will ask

#

Reboot your device bro

celest marlin
#

it didnt ask

fossil fiber
#

If you reset it the file

#

Just close

#

Reboot

#

And it will ask for the file

celest marlin
#

i t
d i d n t

fossil fiber
#

Because now you need to reboot

#

Or make sure it was deleted

#

By checking on the files app

celest marlin
#

fossil fiber
celest marlin

celest marlin
#

im trying to put it in the sidestore root directory

#

#

cus that's where the devicepair file was originally in

fossil fiber
celest marlin
#

you mean just wait for something to pop up while in sidestore?

#

i swear you guys need to just make an official video for installing this thing

sinful pivot
#

bub

#

its beta

#

lol

celest marlin
#

oh really? i didn't notice the big yellow beta label next to the app

sinful pivot

"...or im going back to altstore ;-;"
"i swear you guys need to just make an official video for installing this thing"
bro u sound like a karen

#

also pinging devs

#

lol

celest marlin
#

I was told to ping helpers and I did

#

Anyways I just switched back to altstore since its more stable

fossil fiber
#

After rebooting the device it will ask you for the file

#

Or you will have to manually move the pairing file to the folder

#

@celest marlin @sinful pivot if moving the file doesn’t work rename it to this

i installed sidestore through altserver

#

thanks for the help tho 👍

fossil fiber
#

Another issue is when people don’t use altserver to install sidestore they will have a lot of random issues with sidestore

#

Is weird and is mentioned in the guides to use altserver to install it

# sinful pivot i read the guide, altstore is mentioned only when windows is, and any mac user w...

Yup correct, the issue is many other users don’t follow that or refuse to read the guides and ask questions instead. Also many users use sideloadly or scarlet which causes issues.

You can use altstore but it will take more space and if you chose that route you need to immediately refresh sidestore from within sidestore to avoid any issues.

I do have a tutorial with that tricky method hood but is 30min long and you guessed people won’t watch it.

It covers all the basic and how to properly install altserver.

It will, also as long as guides are follow should be ok 👍
