What is a UDID?
A UDID, or “Unique Device Identifier,” is simply a specific serial number for your iDevice. There are multiple advantages to having this device-specific serial, but it mainly serves as a way to document the existence of your device and to track it.
Each iPhone or iPod Touch has a Unique Device Identifier (UDID), which is a sequence of 40 letters and numbers that is specific to your device. Your UDID will look something like this: 2b6f0cc904d137be2e1730235f5664094b831186.
How do I locate the UDID?
Here are the steps to locate your UDID using iTunes.
