We are a technical team of a large enterprise whose main business depends on internally developed iOS applications. Our Apple enterprise developer account expires on February 16th, and we filled in the renewal application form before that, but it was rejected by Apple. We contacted the Apple consultant through Apple's official website, and they said that the enterprise department is a separate department, and they could not solve my problem. Later, after efforts, I directly contacted the email address of the enterprise department, and I explained our situation. After their review, the final plan still could not renew, but only extended the use of our P12 certificate, and the maximum extension was one year in the end, so that we can deal with the application that is being distributed by the enterprise as soon as possible. May I ask if there is any better way to successfully renew my account? We only extended the certificate, which is not what we want, but this is the only way at present. If there is a good way to communicate, please check my personal information and have my email address for communication. Thank you all

I have an iPhone 12 mini and I am currently using it as a modem for my router. Previously it was running iOS 14, but the DHCP on iOS 14 doesn't work and Apple didn't fix it until iOS 15. Recently I upgraded the system to iOS 18.4 to get DHCP back, but I got a bigger problem. The iPhone will restart itself after 3 days, and then I just lost internet connection. The hotspot will not be turned on until I climbed on my bookshelf to unlock my phone.
After I googled it, I found that it is a feature that Apple introduced in iOS 18.1. While I couldn't find any setting to turn it off. If this cannot be controlled by the user, then it is anyway a BUG than a feature.
Bluetooth is no more working with the upgrade to iOS 18.3.1 I loaded this night !!! (iPhone SE model III).
Please debug it!

I’ve updated to iOS 26 Beta 1, and now I can’t revert to an earlier version because my iPhone automatically created a backup using the iOS 26 version. I’m also unable to check for updates—my device can’t retrieve information from the server, so it’s not detecting that Beta 2 is available. I need help resolving this issue, please.

Hi,
I am a new user here, I have created my apple developer account and purchased an apple developer membership for a year. I have received my web order details and also the invoice few days ago but when I try to go to App Store Connect it won't let me in. I have contacted the apple developer support 3 days ago but I did not received any response yet. It's frustrating. I do not know much how to navigate on these apple products and devices so I am kind of lost here. Your help or advice, would be greatly appreciated.
Btw, I believed I have already enrolled in this apple developer membership because every time I tried to click enrol it leads me to another purchase membership page which I have already paid, so I ended up clicking the withdraw membership instead of clicking the purchase tab.
Thank you in advance to those who are able to address this concern.

Hello all.
I am currently developing a database app of particular products for people who collect this item. Let's say model airplanes. People can look at their list of model airplanes and also see a collection of airplanes by model companies.
I want to offer a link from a product in my app to a local retailer's website who sells this product on their website. Not just their base site, but directly to the products page. Meaning each product in my database will have a unique link to an external product page. This could also include links to Ebay or Amazon if local retailer doesn't sell the product.
Is this sort of feature allowed inside App Store Apps as technically it's not an in-app purchase? I do see some vague answers around but none that target this specific circumstance.
Thankyou in advance.

It works if Bluetooth is on for a long time, is there any problem?
I'm developing an app using beacon and Bluetooth, and I have to operate the app in the background, and after spending the weekend, I have to detect the beacon and revive the app. I can see that there is an app in the background, but the app is not coming back to life.
How can I solve this problem?
Or is the OS team working on something to block it?
The test model is Iphone16Plus.

I submitted my ID for review over a week ago, and it's still the same, I can't log in App Store Connect?
How long have you been waiting?
Have a nice day.
Hi everyone,
We're hoping someone here can help us out.
We've run into a consistent issue when trying to enroll a new Apple Developer account as an organisation using our DUNS number. Here's what we've experienced:
Individual enrollment through the Developer app works perfectly with a new Apple ID.
However, when using an existing Apple ID and selecting organization enrollment, the process gets stuck:
The payment button is greyed out in the Developer app.
We're then locked out of enrolling through the app entirely.
4. When trying to complete the enrollment via the Developer website, there’s no valid payment method available (e.g., VISA option missing CVV field), and any attempts to proceed just loop without success.
We're essentially stuck in a limbo state where we can’t proceed.
We’ve gone through all the support channels:
The automated assistant (Gaby) is unable to resolve the issue or understand the full context.
Live chat support for both individual and business accounts told us they can’t assist and referred us back to the developer support system—which leads us back to square one.
All members of our team were able to enroll individually without issue, but organisation enrollment consistently failed.
Business support and Commercial support (spoken to supervisors) are unable to assist. They really tried and made an effort.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to get in touch with a real person at Apple who can actually resolve this? What are our next steps?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

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?

Hi,
EtreCheck
I could really use some help with this, as I haven’t been able to find much concrete info.
I mistakenly updated my MacBook to the 15.5 beta, and while I can’t say with 100% certainty that the issues started immediately after, I’ve been experiencing consistent kernel panics every time the machine wakes from sleep — it restarts completely and throws an error.
I’m really hoping this isn’t a hardware issue. The MacBook is just over two years old, and I rely on it daily for work — replacing it right now isn’t an option.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a Time Machine backup to roll back to. I’ve already wiped the machine and reinstalled macOS via recovery mode, and Apple Diagnostics isn’t showing any hardware problems.
Just to rule it out: I’m not using any external devices — no docks, Thunderbolt accessories, or anything else plugged in.
I came across EtreCheck as a recommended tool, and I’ve included the results below. If anyone is able to help interpret them or point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it. I’ve since unenrolled from the beta and turned off automatic updates — I’m just hoping this is a beta-related bug that resolves with the next stable release.
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Hello everyone,
I’m having an issue with the Photos app on my iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 26 Beta 2 (happened in first Beta as well). When I open the Photos app and go to the Collections section, it’s completely blank — no photos, just empty space.
The library seems to be working fine and my photos show up in the Library. I’ve tried restarting the phone and force-quitting the app, but no change.
Could it be a bug?
Also, I just switched from Android to IOS, one week ago, if this detail helps. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any fixes or suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Latest ios cannot perform screenshot
I am having trouble passing custom data in an array with a navigation stack. I want to display a subview with the same data structure (title, headline, picture placement etc), with different data attached for each of my list view items
Hello,
i just noticed that when i download an app through the App Store on my iPhone, the app i downloaded does not appear on my home screen or in the App Library.
is there any work around for me to make them appear at least in the App Library?
the only way to open or to place an app on my home screen I downloaded after upgrading to iOS 18.4 Beta 3 is to search for it in Spotlight or in the App Store.
Any apps I downloaded before upgrading to iOS 18.4 Beta 3 is still on my home screen or in the App Library.
i am currently running iOS 18.4 Beta 3 on an iPhone 16 Pro

With CarPlay communication plugin R18.1, I followed these steps to integrate Enhance siri, the music sound was output from carplay and there is no option for output to Car.
============================================
Enhanced Siri
Declare supported audioFormats for the AuxIn and AuxOut streams
Since the AuxIn and AuxOut streams for Siri do not have to be both active at the same time, the accessory must claim audio formats support
for AuxIn Audio and AuxOut audio independently. The audio formats for each stream can differ from each other (48KHz for AuxOut and 16KHz
for AuxIn). The new audio types represent these new streams - AuxIn/speechRecognition & AuxOut/speechRecognition.
Check if connected device supports the feature
AirPlayReceiverSessionHasFeatureEnhancedSiri()
Claim support in the Setup Response message if device supports the feature
Add kAirPlayKeyAccessoryEnabledFeature_EnhancedSiri key through the AirPlayReceiverServer delegate AirPlayReceiverServerCopyProperty_f
function for the kAirPlayKey_AccessoryEnabledFeatures key.
Helper function: CFArrayAppendValue()
Add Enhanced Siri parameters dictionary in the INFO message
Add dictionary through the AirPlayReceiverServer delegate AirPlayReceiverServerCopyProperty_f
function for the kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriInfo key.
kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriInfo dictionary parameters:
Voice activation of Siri - kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriVoice
Current language of voice model - kAirPlayKey_VoiceModelCurrentLanguage
Supported languages of voice model - kAirPlayKey_VoiceModelSupportedLanguages
Enhanced Button activation of Siri - kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriButton
Supported zone(s) if any - kAirPlayKey_SupportedSiriTriggerZones
Update AudioStream
Get state of the AuxIn state by providing an implementation of AudioStreamUpdateState() - Off, local buffering, or streaming to device.
Decouple input streams from output streams. AuxIn is an independent input stream only. The property kAudioStreamProperty_Direction will
provide the necessary information if the stream is input, output or input & output.
Provide a handler for the AirPlayReceiverSessionDelegate setEnhancedSiriParams_f
This will provide additional information:
Activation type
Setting the language of the voice model
Invoke the Communication Plugin to start buffering
Once the activation type has been specified, the accessory can request the plugin to start buffering using
AirPlayReceiverSessionAuxInStart().
Use the new APIs to trigger Siri:
AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriActionWithLatency()
AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriVoiceActivationWithLatency()
AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriVoiceActivationWithSample()
Button presses and voice activations should use this new APIs which adds a timestamp of the activation. These APIs allow
a choice of a latency or a sample for button and voice activations.
If there is a delay between the user pressing the button to notifying the device on the button press, this latency value
should represent this time.
If the accessory can determine which zone activated, it can provide the zone with the request.
Invoke the Communication Plugin to stop buffering
You may need to invoke the plugin to stop buffering (AirPlayReceiverSessionAuxInStop()) if exclusive access to the microphone is necessary.
Such instances may include but not limited to:
Native voice recognition session
Telephony
Another stream function which uses the microphone starts
modesChanged notification can be used to determine if a resource is being used
Note, if the session ends, the plugin will automatically stop buffering
For 9 Glorious Months, My MacBook Pro & J5 Create JCD543 HUB Were Best Friends… Until I Updated macOS
For nearly a year, my MacBook Pro 14” (2023, M2 Pro, 16GB RAM) worked flawlessly with my J5 Create JCD543 HUB, allowing me to run:
✅ 4 External Displays (Samsung, LG, Insignia, Samsung)
A setup that worked perfectly… until I updated macOS.
Then Came the Update… and the Issues Began
First, I updated last week. Two of my four displays stopped working. No big deal, I thought—I’ve dealt with display quirks before.
Then, like an optimist ignoring red flags, I updated again last night to 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) and… well, now things are completely broken.
My Once-Perfect Setup (Now a Display Disaster)
JCD543 HUB → 2 HDMI displays (not working)
JUD380 HUB → 1 HDMI display (partially working, unstable)
MacBook HDMI port → 1 HDMI display (working, but feeling abandoned)
JCA365 USB-C to Dual HDMI Adapter (Not part of my setup, but tested—also not working)
What I’ve Tried (aka My Troubleshooting Journey)
✔ Restarted my Mac multiple times
✔ Uninstalled and reinstalled J5 drivers
✔ Swapped cables, unplugged/replugged everything, tested known-working HDMI cables (they work fine on other devices)
✔ Deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist (this fixed a similar issue in the past, but the file no longer exists in this update)
The Likely Culprit?
It seems to be a J5 driver issue triggered by the macOS update—and I’m not alone. Others are reporting similar problems.
Apple… Any Fixes?
I just want my four screens back. The setup worked flawlessly for 9 months, so it’s hard to believe it was never meant to work.
If anyone has a workaround, I’m open to testing any solution—whether it’s a driver update, system tweak, or hidden macOS setting that might bring my displays back to life.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
(P.S. Apple, if you’re reading this—please look into this issue!)

First, I apologize if I post to the wrong forum, but this is kinda new to me.
Backstory: I recently joined a company as CTO and the first topic on my agenda is the mobile presence. The android app was built in-house, but the iOS app was outsourced to an app/web development agency.
The problem: the aforementioned agency ceased operations in mid-2024 without notifying us. They cancelled their dev program enrollment and our apps are no longer available on the App Store. And the agency reps are not responding to emails and phone calls.
My question: is there a way to get access to our application? We plan in-house redesign and refactoring in 2025, but we want access to the bundle ID, the app groups, the iCloud container, etc. We can present legal documents, company website and branding, everything to prove that app is technically ours.
Thanks in advance!
Have a good and productive 2025!
