Sidecar between macbook and ipad not connecting
Hi, I have a Retina 13 inch 2020 macbook air and an iPad 7. My macbook is updated to macOS sonoma and my iPad is updated to iPadOS 18.3. I want to use the sidecar feature on my mac and project the macbook display onto my iPad. I remember it working around a year ago when I used this feature before, but now it's telling me I have issues connecting due to my iPad's WiFi being 'unavailable.' However, my iPad isn't connecting to hot-spot, my mac isn't sharing the internet connection, they're linked to the same apple ID account, and they're on the same WiFi network. I've tried connecting both wirelessly and wired (and trusted the computer) but no matter how much I troubleshoot it, it won't connect. I'd be really grateful if somebody could help me fix this. Thanks :D

Unauthorized Access, Reinstalling software does not work
Hello! I am new here but could really use some support. For the last year or so I have been bugged by the feeling that my devices were not completely managed by myself. After this week I have seen my computer and devices do things on their own without me touching the keyboard. SO I am hoping someone here can help me get rid or at least get to the root of the problem as I do not know what else I can do! SO far I know they are accessing all my devices remotely but am unsure how they do it since someone times there is no wifi around, I'm thiniking bluetooth maybe or perhaps another form of devices talking and sharing info with each other. Any support helps!!!

Delete subscription data and buy data
Please create the feature to be able to delete subscription data. I want to delete all my subscription data and buy history from the Icloud/ IPhone. You have all the permissions needed from me to do so. There must be a better way than creating a new apple account on a new email address. And having to shift everything to a new email address to have a clean account regarding subscription data and purchases?!

DetectBarcodesRequest operates differently among machines
Hi Apple Developers! I’m using the DetectBarcodesRequest function to identify QR codes in some images and PDFs. However, I’m facing an issue where the function doesn’t detect the barcode on certain documents and machines, while it works on others using the same document. The only common factor I’ve noticed is that the machines that successfully identify the QR code of the “problematic” document are all heavy developer machines that have Xcode installed. Interestingly, this doesn’t seem to be related to processor type (Intel vs. Apple Silicon). Could you please provide some guidance or leads on how to resolve this issue?

mac mini m4 The camera is not working
I bought a Mac mini M4 and when I used it to sign up for a developer account, I was always encountered, it needed me to take a photo, but I didn't have a camera, so I used the iriun software to connect my phone to take a photo, it works fine in FaceTime, but when I take a photo in the Apple Developer app, the round photo frame is shown black. How can I make the camera work and if I buy a third-party camera?

Ashton, a very sad customer

When navigationstack is using two times in SWIFTUI
Hello, I use Navigationstack in the first and second views. In this case, the second view is executed immediately and then disappears. Is there a solution? The code is as follows. device = i-phone struct ContentView: View { @State var path: [String] = [] var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path) { VStack { Text("Screen1") Spacer() Button(action: { path.append("2nd") }, label: { Text("go to 2nd Screen") }) } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { s in if s == "2nd" { let _ = print("1st screen nav path(1) = \(path)") SecondScreen(path: $path) let _ = print("1st screen nav path(2) = \(path)") } } .onAppear { print("1st screen on appear") print("1st screen path = \(path)") } .onDisappear { print("1st screen on disappear") print("1st screen disa. path = \(path)") } .padding() } } } struct SecondScreen: View { @State var path2: [String] = [] @Binding var path: [String] var body: some View { NavigationStack(path: $path2) { VStack { Text("2nd Screen is loaded") Spacer() Button(action: { path2.append("3rd") } , label: { Text("go to 3rd Screen") }) Button(action: { path2.removeLast() } , label: { Text("back to 1st Screen") }) } .navigationDestination(for: String.self) { s in if s == "3rd" { // Text("3rd") thirdScreen() } else { thirdScreen() } } } .onAppear { print("2nd screen on appear") print("2nd screen path = \(path)") print("2nd screen path2 = \(path2)") } .onDisappear { print("2nd screen on disappear") print("2nd screen path = \(path)") print("2nd screen disa. path2 = \(path2)") } } } struct thirdScreen: View { var body: some View { VStack { Text("3rd Screen") } .onAppear { print("3rd screen on appear") } .onDisappear { print("3rd screen on disappear") } } }

Make Developer Forums Better!
Too many irrelevant posts come up when I attempt to search for something. There should be an easy button or something to earmark posts as something irrelevant- something that shouldn't come up in a search. I'm looking for something in Xcode 15 and frequently the top posts in the search are 10 years old and don't have any relevance whatsoever to the solution to my problem.

Very strange behavoir of Safari.app, Notes.app on MacBook Pro
Is there a way to check whether third-party code can be inserted into parts of the ARM CPU architecture from outside? I have the paranoid impression that my MacBook Pro, M2 processor is being manipulated from outside. For example: Safari, when opened, displays pages scaled down without my conscious intervention, when clicked on the original size it scales back to normal for a short time and then implodes again; I use the navigation bar on the left excessively, it is my most important tool in Safari, today it was impossible to insert a link using drag & drop, the bar scrolls up or down very quickly; a behavior that I only know from Intel processors. For example, notes, I encrypted an important note, no problem even though photos and links are inserted, yesterday I could no longer open the note, neither on the MacBook Pro nor on the iPhone. When opening the notes app in the terminal on the MacBook Pro, an EXEC_CRASH report was generated. I have a terrible suspicion that the Apple branch in Munich is tampering with the devices and software of users in Germany. Sorry, I'm a big fan of Apple and its products, but this is very spooky. I just wanted to share my distrust with you!

Multiple IPSW for same version
Hi Team, I just want to know the reasoning behind why there are two IPSW with same version and different build IDs. Example: https://ipsw.me/iPhone12,3 Version: 18.3 BuildIDs: 22D64 and 22D63 Also, in future, on what devices this kind of two buildIDs will be created?
