The server permission issues were resolved long ago. It's possible
you have bad ADC login info in your keychain -- use Keychain Access to
delete your connect.apple.com entry and see if that helps.
If it doesn't, please follow up with me directly and I can debug the
situation further.

Hello, I am seeing the same problem with the iPhoneDevKit (all
versions). I also tried to connect via Safari and my password was
rejected. Has there been any progress on this issue?

There were some permission problems on the server that we are
addressing
(the permissions situation has gotten more complex recently, and
we'll work
to smooth this out with the website team).
What is maddening about the current state of affairs is that even
though
there is a docset on my system for Core Reference, Xcode doesn't
like it, so
when I try to actually view some reference page, I get a Safari
window with
the relevant page as downloaded from developer.apple.com [this

Your doc set is actually being used here -- as an experiment in
reducing the
initial download size of the developer tools, the doc set that
comes with
the install contains index information, but the index points to the
documents on the website. Once you are able to successfully update
the doc
set, you will then be able to view the documentation locally.
We are making several adjustments to improve the experience in future
releases.

When I first updated to Xcode 3.0, I had trouble getting updates

I just updated to Xcode 3.1(Beta), and now I cannot get the "Core
Library"
to update.
I look in /Developer/Documentation/docsets and see the following:
drwxrwxr-x 3 _devdocs wheel 102 Mar 17 12:39
com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset
drwxrwxr-x 3 _devdocs wheel 102 Mar 17 12:43
com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.DeveloperTools.docset

So, I think I am having the same problems as before. After fussing
around
with the KeyChain item, I finally just delete both entries. Xcode
does some
caching, so I quit and restart Xcode, and when I open the
documentation
window it prompts me for name/password to get the documentation. I
enter
them but get the same failure.
Drilling down, I do a get-info on Core Library, and see the Feed
URL:
http://developer.apple.com/rss/adcdocsets.atom OK, if I cannot do it
automatically I'll just do it by hand. [Quit and restart Safari,
then open a
new window, paste in the above, and voila, I get a window with the
various
docsets listed along with a "basicAuthGetSoftware" text button.
This looks
promising, so I click on that. Now, I get another name/password
panel, I
enter my info, and I get a page saying Access Denied (with a "P1"
error.) At
least this is consistent behavior, but why does this not work?
So, you say my connect.apple.com name/password is no good, right?
Then why
can I still go directly to connect.apple.com, with the same name/
password,
and download items at will? The KeyChain items with
connect.apple.com must
be the valid entries for Xcode and Safari, since when removed both
apps
prompt for them, and if I check the "save" box in the panel, an
entry does
get made for connect.apple.com in the KeyChain.
