Error creating FileProvider domain on external drive
Hi, I am trying to use the new FileProvider feature available on macOS 15 to create a FileProvder domain on an external drive. I am creating the domain with the initializer init(displayName:, userInfo:, volumeURL:) But when I try to add the domain with NSFileProviderManager.add() I get error NSCocoaErrorDomain, code 3328 - feature not supported. My external drive is APFS formatted and encrypted. I am checking its eligibility with NSFileProviderManager.checkDomainsCanBeStoredOnVolume(at:) and the result is "eligible". What should be done to solve this problem - is there a specific entitlement I have to add? I checked the possible entitlements and I don't see anything pointing in this direction. I will be very grateful for any help!

Apple Enrolment Program
Hi team, I am trying to enroll my company, in the Apple Developer Program - I am repeatedly receiving a rejection from Apple’s system. It shows in review and when I continue to enrollment, nothing happens. It submits as a new request. I have: ✅ Verified my business name and address with D&B (matches exactly). ✅ Checked that my business is a legal entity (LLP). ✅ Ensured all details match across D&B, UPIK, and Apple’s lookup tool. ✅ Attempted re-submission multiple times without success. However, despite these steps, I am still unable to proceed. Please help.

How to request several models simultaneously
I am using HelloPhotogrammetry in Xcode I can make one model with something like HelloPhotogrammetry.main([path_to_folder_of images, path_to_output/model.usdz, "-d", "medium", "-o", "unordered", "-f", "high" ]) But how would I request several models simultaneously? I only want to vary the detail. [ ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_medium.usdz", detail: .medium), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_full.usdz", detail: .full), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_raw.usdz", detail: .raw ]

Printing error
Back in December 2024 I noticed when I go through the steps to print I would get an error to cancel or retry. We have 4 iPhones and 3 had the newest IOS and those 3 would get the same error. The phone that had old ios 17 something the print would work. Called Apple and did troubleshooting, the opened something on apples end for the developer to investigate. Within 2 weeks a new ios was available and fixed the issue on the 3 phones that could not print. I did the latest update February and March 2025 on all 4 phones thinking no way the issue will happen again and if did all 4 phone cannot print. Is there an iOS bug that is affecting printing ios 18.3.2.

Guidance on Integrating Meta Ads with Google AdMob Bidding Mediation and Testing Issues
Hello, I am currently working on integrating Meta Audience Network (Meta) with Google AdMob using bidding mediation for an iOS app. The goal is to show ads through meta , with AdMob acting as the mediation layer. I have successfully set up both the Meta SDK and Google AdMob SDK, as well as the GoogleMobileAdsMediationFacebook adapter. My AdMob and Meta accounts are both linked for mediation, and I have configured the correct placement IDs for Meta within AdMob. Currently i am creating a demo project with demo accounts i haven't added app live link as my app isn't on AppStore and haven't added any payment method. However, I am encountering a couple of issues and need some guidance: 1. Test Ads Work, but Real Ad Unit Fails: • When using test AdMob ad unit IDs, everything works fine, and ads are shown as expected. • But when I use my original AdMob ad unit ID, I get the error: “Publisher data not found.” • Does this mean my app is not fully set up or is there something else I might be missing in my configuration? • Is it necessary to go live on the App Store to get ads from the real ad unit, even for testing purposes? 2. Meta Ads via Bidding Mediation: • I have integrated Meta through AdMob’s bidding mediation system. But i am showing ads using GADBannerView is it right way to show meta ads that are mediated with google admob. If i have to show ads with FBAdView from where to get withBidPayload value for this function adView.loadAd(withBidPayload: "what_here") 3. Payment Method Requirements: • My app is still in the demo/testing phase and is not live on the App Store. I have not added any payment methods in either AdMob or Meta. • Is it necessary to add a payment method for testing purposes, or is this only required when I start monetizing and going live? I would appreciate any advice or pointers to ensure the setup is correct and to understand why the original ad unit ID isn’t working during testing. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Trouble Displaying Heart Rate Data Graph from Apple Watch in iOS App
Issue with Heart Rate Graph from Apple Watch in iOS App Hello Community! I hope everyone is doing well. I'm developing an iOS app that includes a feature to display a graph of the heart rate recorded during a route using the Apple Watch. Current Implementation I have successfully implemented data collection and transfer from the Apple Watch to the iPhone. The app's main UI correctly displays the user's real-time BPM. When the user stops the route, an analysis view is generated, showing speed and altitude (both work perfectly). Expected Behavior The user starts recording a route while monitoring heart rate. After tapping "Stop Route," an analysis view should display a heart rate graph along with speed and altitude data. Issue Encountered Despite multiple attempts, I have not been able to properly generate the heart rate graph. The only result I have achieved so far is a flat line with points representing the recorded BPM over time, instead of a proper graph. Request for Help If anyone has experience implementing a similar feature, I would appreciate any guidance on correcting my implementation. I can share: The file responsible for graph visualization. The file handling data processing after the user stops the route. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Summary I'm trying to display a heart rate graph from Apple Watch data in my iOS app. While data collection and transfer work fine, the graph only shows a flat line instead of a proper visualization. Speed and altitude graphs work correctly. If anyone has experience with this, I’d love some guidance!

Saving a file using field at the top of document
Hi there, with the latest update, the ability to click in the file name field at the top of a document (eg Pages, Numbers) to add or change the name of the file, then select filing location, no longer works. Previously, a user could do this and then hit 'return' and it would save to that location with that new file name. It no longer does this. This is a very useful functionality to have. Can it be returned in a future update?

Question About CarPlay Certification When Using Custom Wiring Harness
Hello developers, My question isn't directly related to app or software development, but this seems to be the most appropriate channel to possibly find the information I need. Context I work for an automotive company and I'm currently looking for Apple CarPlay certification guidelines. We're in the process of installing a multimedia system in a vehicle. The most viable solution would be to use the multimedia unit and microphone provided by our supplier, but with a custom wiring harness developed by our company to simplify the installation process. The multimedia unit, microphone, and the supplier’s harness are already certified for CarPlay. Question Would using our company’s custom wiring harness affect the existing CarPlay certification of the supplier’s product? Any information, contact, or suggestion on where I could find official guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

lowQualityThumbnail in QLThumbnailGenerator stops working from 15.2
Our code is using .lowQualityThumbnail to generate a thumbnail, it stops working when users update to 15.2 . Test it with a regular jpg file for fileURL. The only way to make it work is to change it to .thumnail or remove it. It's not deprecated, is it a MacOS bug? customers don't want to keep updating the software. Everything works in MacOS 15.1 import QuickLookThumbnailing func generateThumbnail(for fileURL: URL, size: CGSize, scale: CGFloat) { let request = QLThumbnailGenerator.Request(fileAt: fileURL, size: size, scale: scale, representationTypes: .lowQualityThumbnail) QLThumbnailGenerator.shared.generateBestRepresentation(for: request) { thumbnail, error in if let error = error { print("Error generating thumbnail: \(error)") } else if let thumbnail = thumbnail { // Use the thumbnail let image = thumbnail.uiImage // Do something with the image } } }
