AMI creation error message

I’m doing cloud quest and I keep receiving this error message every time I try to select an AMI for my new EC2 instance on the AWS console. I followed all the steps and the first one worked properly anyone know the answer?

The number of available instances of selected AMI may be exhausted for the selected region. Try creating an instance of that image in a different region. You can also search for available AMIs by going to EC2 / Images / AMIs in the AWS Console. Your account may also have a limit on the number of Mac instances (which require a dedicated host) that can be launched.

The issue I’m running into is, in order to pass the task successfully, while meeting the CloudQuest requirements the instructions say that I need to provision my new instance in the same region as the first instance created (East 1) but in a separate AZ. I read the threads you linked but they don’t seem to have anything to do with the error message I received. I also tried selecting several different AMIs and received the same error message several times for any of the AMIs I chose!.. I made sure to check the dates of the versions I selected to make sure they were up to date. Any suggestions?
According to your screenshot above you are in Ohio (us-east-2) but your comment says you need to be creating your new instance in us-east-1 (N Virginia).
Might there be some mismatch here?
