iPhone restore from iTunes fails with generic error

I cannot restore my backup on iOS9 beta 2, it fails with generic error after 10 minutes.


Scenario:

1. iOS9 beta 2 - iTunes 12.2.0.145 on Mac Yosemite

2. Backup with password [OK]

3. Reset iPhone [OK]

4. Restore previuos backup with iTunes [FAILS with generic error text, no error code]


I tried to restore the same backup from another pc (Windows), and the result is the same.

I think it depends on iOS9 beta2.

Have you been developing with the HomeKit framework? Quoted from iOS 9 DP2 Release Notes:


After using HomeKit accessories or developing with the HomeKit framework, backing up to iTunes will result in an unrestorable backup.

Workaround: Back up to iCloud instead of iTunes.

Max108 thanks, I had read all the "known issues" but I have not interacted with Homekit 😟
