Is there a way to display a .icon file in SwiftUI? I want to show the app icon in the app itself but exporting and including the app icon as a PNG feels redundant. This would consume a lot of unnecessary storage especially when including a lot of alternative app icons. There has to be a better way Otherwise I would file a feedback for that Thank you

Hi everyone! I've encountered an issue on Mac Catalyst: using the latest inspector modifier causes abnormal Sidebar and Columns state in NavigationSplitView. Sample Code: struct ContentView: View { @State private var isPresented = false var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { List { ForEach(0..<20, id: \.self) { item in Text("Item \(item)") } } } content: { List { ForEach(0..<20, id: \.self) { item in Text("Item \(item)") } } } detail: { List { } } .inspector(isPresented: $isPresented) { Form { } } } } Steps to reproduce: Xcode 16 beta 7, create a new iOS project Paste the code above Enable Mac Catalyst Run on Mac (macOS 15 beta 9) Press Command+N three times to open 3 new windows Click the Sidebar Toggle button The issue occurs (see screenshot below) Through testing, I found that as long as the inspector modifier is attached, the issue occurs. Also, the problem only appears in the 3rd and subsequent newly opened windows—the first two windows work as expected. FB20061521

I exported some usd assets from IsaacSim but they are not showing up correctly on my Apple Vision Pro. Even though the mesh looks to be the correct color in Finder and I can see the Diffuse Color looks correct, the object is still just gray. It should be green!

I’m using an NETransparentProxyProvider where I add UDP-53 rules to intercept DNS queries from a private application. These queries are resolved locally on the endpoint by returning a custom DNS response. Example Rules look like this: NENetworkRule(destinationHost: NWHostEndpoint(hostname: "mypaapp.com", port: 53),protocol:.UDP) This works as expected through browser and ping. handleNewUDPFlow/handleNewFlow with NEAppProxyUDPFlow gets called where custom dns response get written. Using nslookup mypaapp.com doesn't works. Why does this behaves differently for nslookup?

Error 7000 "Team is not yet configured for notarization" - Cannot notarize any apps I'm trying to notarize macOS apps for Developer ID distribution and consistently getting error 7000 on every submission. Error Details: { "status": "Rejected", "statusSummary": "Team is not yet configured for notarization. Please contact Developer Programs Support at developer.apple.com under the topic Development and Technical / Other Development or Technical Questions.", "statusCode": 7000 } What I've tried: Completed enrollment verification Created new App Store Connect API key with Admin access Created fresh App-Specific Password Submitted via both API key and App-Specific Password authentication All submissions are accepted and uploaded successfully, but after processing they're rejected with error 7000 Technical Details: Active Developer ID Application certificate Hardened runtime enabled Apps are properly code-signed (codesign -vvv passes) Behavior: Over 15 submissions since December 2nd - ALL rejected with the same error 7000. The submissions upload successfully and show "In Progress" for extended periods (sometimes hours) before eventually being rejected. Questions: Has anyone encountered error 7000 and resolved it? What was the fix? Are there any account settings or agreements required specifically for notarization that aren't obvious in the developer portal? Should I contact Apple Developer Support directly, or is there a self-service solution? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I'd like to set my macOS app written in Swift as default app when opening .mp4 file. I think I can do it with setDefaultApplication(at:toOpen:completion:). https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nsworkspace/3753002-setdefaultapplication However, permission error occurs when I use it. The error is: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=256 "The file couldn’t be opened." UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x6000031d0150 {Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "permErr: permissions error (on file open)"}} I tried to give my app full-disk access, but it didn't work. I also tried to use setDefaultApplication(at:toOpenFileAt:completion:), then it works with no error, but it effects on only one file. What I want to do is to set my app as default app of all .mp4 files. How do I achieve this? My code is like below: let bundleUrl = Bundle.main.bundleURL NSWorkspace.shared.setDefaultApplication(at: bundleUrl, toOpen: .mpeg4Movie) { error in print(error) } Thank you.

Hello, We are developing a content filter solution which includes both a content filter and a packet filter (NEFilterControlProvider and NEFilterPacketProvider). We've observed that if the packet filter is enabled (both by itself or in conjunction with the content filter) we are having issues with bridged thunderbolt connections - traffic on that interface stops in both directions. We've tested on bridges to other MacOS devices or Windows devices, but both exhibit the same behavior. Even if the packet provider is reduces to "allow all" in the callback the issue remains. Our handler is not called at all anyway so we can't allow or deny packets. We've tested this on Macos 15 and 26 but it behaves the same. If we only enable the NEFilterControlProvider everything works fine. All other types of network interfaces work fine as well. Is this a known issue? Is there an workaround? Thanks.

App Notarization got stuck, showing In-Progress from last 24 hrs. This is really frustrating. Can anyone plz update on this?

Hi, I’m using Network Framework to implement a UDP client via NWConnection, and I’m looking for clarification about the correct and fully safe shutdown procedure, especially regarding resource release. I have initiated some pending receive calls on the NWConnection (using receive). After calling connection.cancel(), do we need to wait for the cancellation of these pending receives? As mentioned in this thread, NWConnection retains references to the receive closures and releases them once they are called. If a receive closure holds a reference to the NWConnection itself, do we need to wait for these closures to be called to avoid memory leaks? Or, if there are no such retained references, we don't need to wait for the cancellation of the pending I/O and cancelled state for NWConnection?

Hello everyone, I'm a developer who has been facing a significant issue with my Apple Developer account and the app submission process. I hope to get some guidance or assistance from the community or Apple support. Timeline of Events Four months ago: I prepared an app and submitted it to TestFlight for review. Initial rejection: The app was rejected due to technical issues such as screenshots, app description, and insufficient permission explanations for features like location, camera, and microphone. Resubmission after fixes: I carefully addressed all the issues mentioned by the Apple review team and resubmitted the app. Second rejection: This time, the app was rejected citing general policy violations related to copyright issues. The rejection was vague, and I couldn’t understand the exact problem. Further attempts: To resolve the issue, I removed all video, photo, and media content from the app and resubmitted it. However, it was still rejected for the same reason. I went through this process about 7-8 times, each time getting rejected without clarity on the root cause. Account deletion notice: Eventually, I received an email stating that my account was set to be deleted in 30 days. This was alarming because I had been diligently trying to comply with Apple’s policies for months. Deleting the app: To prevent any harm to my account, I decided to delete the app from my account within the 30-day period, effectively abandoning the project. Account still deleted: Despite deleting the app, my account was still deleted after 30 days. Discovery of similar app name: Later, I noticed that there was another app on the App Store with a name very similar to mine. For example, my app was named "ABcdefgh," and the existing app was "AB.cdefgh," with the only difference being the "." I believe this name similarity might have been the cause of the copyright issue, but it was too late as my account had already been deleted. Contact with Apple Turkey: I reached out to Apple Turkey, and they were very attentive, spending about 40 minutes trying to help me. However, they ultimately informed me that they couldn’t intervene and that the issue could only be resolved through Apple America. Attempts to contact Apple America: I tried filling out forms multiple times to contact Apple, but since I had deleted the app, I couldn’t see the responses from the team. Impact of the Issue This situation has been very distressing as I’ve lost my developer account and the ability to publish apps. My users are constantly inquiring about the iOS versions of my apps, and I’m unable to provide them due to this issue. Request for Assistance I’m seeking advice on how to resolve this issue. Specifically: Has anyone else experienced a similar issue with app name similarity leading to account deletion? Are there any specific steps I can take to appeal the account deletion? Is there a direct way to contact Apple America for developer account issues? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I appreciate any help or suggestions you can provide. Best regards.

When TestFlight was in public beta, the user had a mainland China account and downloaded the app from the mainland China App Store. However, when subscribing, the app displayed the message: "Your account is not available in the US App Store. You must switch to the Chinese App Store before making a purchase." In reality, the user's account region was already mainland China, and the app was downloaded from the mainland China Mac App Store. I've set all countries to be available in Connect. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? testflight公测时，用户是中国大陆的账号，在大陆appstore下载了应用。 但是订阅的时候，app提示：你的账户在美国商店中无法使用，在进行购买之前，你必须切换至中国商店。实际上，用户的账号地区已经是中国大陆，也是在中国大陆的mac appstore下载的应用。 我的在connect 中设置了所有国家可用，有人遇到类似的问题了吗？

Hello, I submitted my application for review and it's not being processed. Each time, I wait months for a response. This is incredibly frustrating because I'm already too late to announce my project. I've repeatedly requested an expedited review, but it doesn't work. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Hello All, I am new to apple ecosystem. We have a xcode project whose code is scattered across different repos. We are trying setup CI/CD for this Xcode project to get build so that we could know build issue. Clone/Update all repos – which I can do via some script Generate xcode projects from sources synced in step 1. This is where we want your help. How should we approach this? What apple suggest for this ? In this step we don't want to use any third part tool (like CMake) to generate Xcode projects. Build targets to know build errors – This we can easily do via xcodebuild command line tool. Please share you input/thought on this. Your input is highly appreciated.

I have a SwiftUI app that needs to present a fullScreenCover when the user opens a deep link. This screen must appear above anything currently shown — even if another fullScreenCover is already being presented. In UIKit, I can achieve this by walking the view controller hierarchy, finding the top-most view controller, and presenting the new full-screen view from there. What is the recommended way to reproduce this behavior in SwiftUI? How can I ensure a fullScreenCover is always shown above the current presentation layer, regardless of the app’s UI state?

I have an iOS and iPadOS app that also runs on macOS Catalyst. The user is able to view their subscription using the SubscriptionStoreView with two SubscriptionOptionGroups. The documentation does not mention these are supported on macOS Catalyst and the app crashes when attempting to show the SubscriptionStoreView on macOS Catalyst. If not supported, how can the user manage their subscription on macOS?
