Hello all, I created an AppID. Selected "Associated Domains". Selected "MusicKit". I need to add my domains but do not see an option where to add the domains. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone. I’m working on an iOS app that uses Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to send push notifications. I’m encountering an issue when trying to send notifications either from Firebase Functions or directly using the FCM token with the Firebase Admin SDK and REST API. Error Message: FirebaseMessagingError: Auth error from APNS or Web Push Service code: 'messaging/third-party-auth-error' message: 'Auth error from APNS or Web Push Service' What I’ve Set Up: iOS App Registered in Firebase Bundle ID: Kilovative-Designs.ParkAware APNs Key downloaded from Apple Developer Portal Team ID and Key ID correctly entered in Firebase Console Firebase Admin SDK Service Account setup and used for sending Device is successfully receiving FCM tokens Subscribed to topics and calling Messaging.messaging().subscribe(toTopic:) works Using firebase-admin to send FCM messages via sendToDevice or sendToTopic What I’ve Tried: Tested push via firebase-admin in Node.js (got same APNs auth error) Tested with both topic-based and direct token-based push Confirmed the .p8 key is uploaded in Firebase, with correct Key ID and Team ID Tried generating a new APNs Auth Key Firebase Admin SDK is initialized with the correct service account Using Node.js firebase-admin with a known good FCM token, and sending this payload: { notification: { title: "Test Notification", body: "This is a direct FCM test" }, token: "cxleOwi73EhFh9C5_V4hED:APA91bE3W..." } Returns: FirebaseMessagingError: Auth error from APNS or Web Push Service Questions: Are there known conditions under which Firebase throws this error even if the APNs Auth Key is present? Does the Bundle ID need to start with com. in the Apple Developer Portal and Firebase for APNs authentication to work? Could this be a certificate or provisioning profile mismatch issue (even when using a .p8 key)? Is there a way to manually validate APNs authentication from Firebase outside of actual push delivery? Any insight or guidance would be incredibly helpful. I’m new to developing and have tried repeated efforts to fix this issue but still haven’t resolved it. Thanks in advance!

Hello, Good morning to you all. Please I need a guide on how to change my app icon on the developer account. Necessary steps would be appreciated Thanks for the anticipated assistance. Best Regards Biggie

I just downloaded Xcode26, and am trying to download the new simulator to be able to run and test my app. But the downloads folder just shows that it's stuck on "Fetching download information ..." even 15 minutes after it started. I tried restarting Xcode but didn't help. Internet connection is good. Any tips to get it working?

I'm building and running from Xcode 26 to macOS 15.5. On launch, app crashes on start dynamic runtime linking with failure to find _LocationEssentials framework.

Can anyone explain why I would be getting this warning ? [Internal] Thread running at User-interactive quality-of-service class waiting on a lower QoS thread running at Default quality-of-service class. Investigate ways to avoid priority inversions.

hi , There is a crash when we run on an **iOS 16 real device ** if we set a .toggleButton trait for accessibilty . it has version check as apple doc refers (IOS 17 +) but it crashes so there is someinconsistency between availbility in ios 18 + , somehow other xcodes made it available from 17 for now we commented our code , but would like dto report this to be fixed cheers

Hi everyone, We’re developing a macOS SwiftUI app that uses a local Swift Package (CasSherpaCore) to invoke an external compiled binary (sherpa-onnx-offline-tts) for text-to-speech synthesis using system calls. The package works flawlessly when tested from terminal or via a lightweight test C program. However, when we invoke it from a SwiftUI app (even when Full Disk Access granted to Xcode and Terminal), we consistently get the error: sh: /Users/xxxxxxxxxxx/SherpaONNX/sherpa-onnx/build/bin/sherpa-onnx-offline-tts: Operation not permitted We’ve tried: Granting Full Disk Access to Xcode and Terminal. Removing the quarantine flag with xattr -d com.apple.quarantine. Setting executable permission via chmod +x. Using both system() and Process in C and Swift contexts. Testing within a Swift Package that’s integrated into the app as a local dependency. Running the command manually from terminal (works perfectly). It appears that macOS (or Xcode’s runtime sandbox) is restricting execution of binaries from certain locations or contexts when launched via system() inside the app. Questions: Is there a specific entitlement or configuration that allows execution of local binaries from a SwiftUI macOS app? Is this related to System Integrity Protection (SIP) or a hardened runtime limitation? Are there best practices or alternative approaches to safely execute local TTS binaries from within a Swift app? Any help would be deeply appreciated. This is a core feature in our project and we’re stuck at this point. Thank you so much in advance!

Got emailed three .txt crash files. Cannot for the life of me figure out how to get Xcode to do something with them. Tried: renaming .txt to .crash Dropping onto "devices and simulators" window Dropping on to "devices and simulators > select device > View device logs" "Download debug symbols" for the archive in Xcode (says "dowloaded debug symbols" so did it) ... and many other things Xcode 13 simply refuses to respond to the drag-and-drop of the file no matter the file extension and no matter where in Xcode's various windows/tools I drop it. Has anyone done this with a crash .txt file from app review and Xcode 13?

Trying to test applications on AVP as opposed to simulator. AVP can connect to MacBook via Mac virtual display so connection exists, but in X code under Windows devices the AVP does not show up same holds true on the AVP itself under remote devices. The MacBook Pro does not appear. I am signed in under the same account on the same Wi-Fi network. I have tried all basic troubleshooting. It is not clear to me that I am logged in as a developer, which could be the issue, but I am using OS 26, which does not appear to have the developer option under privacy and security where it used to reside in previous versions of the OS.

I’m extremely disappointed with the Apple Developer Program experience. Our organization account (JD SOFTWARE PRIVATE LIMITED) expired on October 26, 2024, and to this day, there is no visible option to renew — not in the Apple Developer app (iOS/Mac), not on the developer website. We've followed every instruction Apple provides, and nothing works. To make things worse, I’m based in India, but Apple’s support is clearly U.S.-centered and unresponsive. I contacted support and got a canned response asking me to wait 24 hours. Why does a global company like Apple not provide time zone–relevant or regional developer support? This isn’t a minor inconvenience—it’s a major business disruption. Our apps are unavailable, and we can’t push updates. And yet we’re met with silence and confusion when we try to give Apple more money to renew our account. Apple enforces the strictest guidelines on developers, yet offers no proper channel to resolve something as basic as account renewal. It’s absurd. We’re now being forced to consider alternative app stores and distribution platforms—not because we want to leave, but because Apple is making it impossible to stay. Apple, please fix this. Developers outside the U.S. deserve better. JD SOFTWARE PRIVATE LIMITED

I have an App that has working audio for most devices except for iOS18 + Air pods pro connected. Eventually I realized that this is due to the Audio Spatialization which is enabled by default. I found a information property list key called AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio which can be enabled to true AVGameBypassSystemSpatialAudio and now the audio works for 90% of the game. However my game has a .MP4 which when it is played will be paused when the air pods are connected and after force skipping the video the Spatialization is now enabled and the app no longer has audio. I checked through the logs and found this part mediaplaybackd <<<< FigFilePlayer >>>> itemfig_establishedStereoAudioSpatializationPreferenceForAsset: <0x53451c000|I/OWH.01>: Stereo Spatialization allowed by default due to asset containing video After this line I can see the Spatialization being enabled. Does anyone know how to disable this auto setting of stereo Spatialization by default?

I have been working for a while now. Never encountered this issue. After accepting the invite from the organization. The organizations does not appear at developer apple account. But can see the organization at app store connect. Yes i have checked the account permissions. I have the admin role and developer role etc is checked everything is correct. This is not just me happening with my colleague as well.

Hi, My name is Hani Nemati, and I work at Microsoft, where we support several macOS applications such as Microsoft Edge and Teams. I’m also the primary contributor to Microsoft Performance Tools for Apple (https://github.com/microsoft/Microsoft-Performance-Tools-Apple), an open-source project aimed at improving trace analysis across platforms. We are exploring ways to enhance our performance tracing capabilities on macOS and are particularly interested in the ability to attach PMU (Performance Monitoring Unit) counters to context switch events during trace collection. For reference, this capability is supported on Linux via LTTng using the add-context option (https://lttng.org/man/1/lttng-add-context/v2.13), and on Windows through Windows Performance Recorder (WPR), which allows PMU counters to be added at the start and end of context switches, enabling delta computation. Would it be possible to introduce similar support in Instruments for macOS? I’d appreciate any guidance or suggestions you might have on this request. Thank you, Hani Nemati Email: hanemati@microsoft

Developing a standalone app for the Apple Watch. Unless I turn off Bluetooth on the paired iPhone, the Apple Watch’s Wi-Fi deactivates every ~30 seconds, which causes the connection to Xcode to drop. How is this supposed to work? I can see my app’s logs in Xcode, but I can’t view any other system logs from the Apple Watch. I tried using the Console app, with the iPhone connected via USB, trusted, etc, but I don't see any system logs. How can I access full system logs? Thanks!

Ok, I have a bit of special problem. I want to use the "Swift Upcoming Feature Flags" in my packages. The problem is that we have quite a lot of Packages in a quite deep tree: at the root of the Package directory there are four dirs: AppA/ AppB/ Shared/ Temporary/ also the packages ExternalLibs and BuildPlugins. Temporary contains Packages that need rework and the other three subdirs each contain the subdirs: Features/ Utilities/ Services/ All in all there are over 100 packages. Now I would like to use definitions like https://github.com/treastrain/swift-upcomingfeatureflags-cheatsheet to use in the Package.swift files. And as you might guess, I do not want to copy those into each and every Package.swift file. It seems like SPM is only finding includes by itself if they are in the exact same directory as the Package.swift file 🙄 That's not at all helpful… Has anyone found a way to do useful includes into Package.swift files? Any help appreciated. Thank You Roddi

I am trying ManagedAppDistribution framework for enterprise bundle id Managed App Installation UI is not visible where as for company account bundle ID Managed App Installation UI option is visible. is it something wrong with my enterprise account? Kindly provide details

We use several UIKit and AVFoundation APIs in our project, including: setAlternateIconName(_:completionHandler:) getAllTasks(completionHandler:) loadMediaSelectionGroup(for:completionHandler:) Moreover, we use the Swift Concurrency versions for these APIs: @MainActor func setAlternateIconName(_ alternateIconName: String?) async throws var allTasks: [URLSessionTask] { get async } func loadMediaSelectionGroup(for mediaCharacteristic: AVMediaCharacteristic) async throws -> AVMediaSelectionGroup? Everything worked well with these APIs in Xcode 16.2 and earlier, but starting from Xcode 16.3 (and in 16.4), they cause crashes. We've rewritten the APIs to use completion blocks instead of async/await, and this approach works. Stack traces: setAlternateIconName(_:completionHandler:) var allTasks: [URLSessionTask] { get async } loadMediaSelectionGroup(for:completionHandler:) Also, I attached some screenshots from Xcode 16.4.

I was developing an app using a certain bundle ID, but then had to delete it (and I also removed the app ID Identifier) My question is, can I make a new app with the exact same bundle ID as I was using on the removed one? Since the old app never went into production I don't see why that would be a problem

I create a help book for my macOS app and it works locally. However, when I try to upload the app to App Store Connect I get a strange error: Image: Text: Bad CFBundleExecutable. Cannot find executable file that matches the value of CFBundleExecutable in the nested bundle DottieHelp [com.gingerbeardman.Dottie.pkg/Payload/Dottie.app/Contents/Resources/DottieHelp.help] property list file. (ID: 48052567-91cc-43ca-8d7c-0f14bd60e6da) This is curious, because there is no executable in the help file. If I delete CFBundleExecutable from the help target in Xcode, it keeps coming back. Why? But if I do an Archive build, then go deep into the bundle and manually remove entry for CFBundleExecutable then the build uploads fine. Any ideas how I can prevent Xcode from adding CFBundleExecutable key to the info.plist of a help file? macOS 14.7.6 (23H626) Xcode 16.2 (16C5032a)
