Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a frustrating delay with my Apple Developer Program enrollment and I’m hoping someone here can help or escalate the issue. I had previously completed the enrollment process and was approved, but after opening the Apple Developer app on my iPad, the entire progress reset for some reason. I was forced to start the process again from scratch, including submitting all required documents. Last time, my documents were verified and approved within 7 days. However, this time, it’s been over a month since I submitted my documents and there's been no progress. I contacted Apple Developer Support, but they responded saying it would take an “undetermined amount of time,” without providing any explanation, timeline, or guidance. That’s extremely concerning, especially since I’ve already gone through this once before. This delay is affecting my ability to move forward with game releases and business plans. I’m more than willing to provide any additional documentation if needed, but I’m currently stuck with no idea what’s going on. Can someone from the Apple team please: Check the status of my enrollment using Enrollment ID: 772673548 Let me know if there are any issues that require action from my side Or help escalate this for review? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Shamsad M

Hi, I really appreciate the C++ binding provided. I got the metal-cpp source code from the website at Getting Started. However, I could not find the same for metal-cpp-extensions. Is it not available or do we have to always extract it from the sample code? Thanks.

Apologies if this isn't tagged right but dev tools and services seemed the most appropriate since this is related to the workbench Ad Tester tool. I'm seeing a behavior where the preview link is not being generated. Specifically, I am seeing a POST request to the following URL consistently fail: https://iadworkbench.apple.com/adtester/api/v1/ads/previewLink?orgId=1127861 Variations/scenarios I have tried so far: All possible ad format choices on all possible devices All options for the placement type Both third party and uploaded creative sources Uploaded creative sources appear to be failing to upload as well A simple div with a "hello world" content fails as a third party creative source Multiple apple accounts I created a new account specifically to test if my primary apple ID was experiencing issues with this Multiple browsers I have tried multiple versions of Chrome/Firefox/Safari I tested with and without browser extensions to determine whether an extension was interfering or not Clearing session/local storage along with cookies I also created new profiles in browsers to verify that I was getting a fresh browser environment In all of these cases, the API request to generate a preview link is consistently failing with a 500 error code. It's worth noting that the web preview option works, but this isn't a truly accurate test environment and can't be solely relied on when testing ad content. I don't know exactly when this started happening as I have not used it in the last couple of weeks but I have used the workbench ad tester extensively in the past the same way I have been trying with my current test without issue. That coupled with the fact that the request for the preview link consistently fails in all of the test scenarios I've outlined above leads me to believe there is a problem with the API that is responsible for generating the preview links.

This started on April 4. System status says it's fixed, but I'm still having issues

Hi, first time question. I have a game app that I am trying to include google ads on: import GoogleMobileAds I have the following bit of code: init() { GADMobileAds.sharedInstance().start(completionHandler: { _ in print("✅ AdMob started successfully") }) } That is throwing the following error: OliviasGameApp.swift:9:22 Cannot call value of non-function type 'MobileAds' I have gone through countless troubleshooting, including transitioning to Pods. Is there any help on what I can do to resolve this issue?

I can not accept new agreement on account web portal. When I navigated to the page, my personal team can not be seen. So I can not accept the newly agreement. I asked help via email/phone 3 months ago, and Chinese developer team just said you need to wait. I am wondering how long need to take actions or have a conclusion...

I have an iOS app that I also run on my Macbook Air M1. My app plays music and I use FaceTime for voice communication with users of my app. How do I stop FaceTime from cutting out the music on my app?

Hei everyone. As the title says, I have submitted the enrollment for the developer program two times, by mistake. I did it once, two days ago, I have received the order aknowledgement and that was it. However, today I have logged in the dev account on the web, and I saw this : To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process. I was like, oh, finally. let me finish the enrollment. but in reality, I have applied again, and received the same order aknowledgment. How bad in trouble I am, or how bad did I messed up? And more importantly, what happens now? I mention that no money charge has been issued from my card on neither of the attempts. Thank you, Best regards, Gabriel.

Hi everyone, I've been trying to integrate with Microsoft EntraID for more than a week. I've followed every tutorial, ChatGPT, Cloude.ai, etc, but nothing works, and I realized that the problem is setting up information inside the Info.plist correctly. In the old days, we were able to edit it, but now it's a mess. I'm working with Xcode 15.2. Unfortunately, my computer does not accept more upgrades. Yes, I know I have to buy a new one, but I'm not sure if the new version will help me solve that. Does anyone have a project example or some experience with Microsoft EntraID authentication using SwiftUI? All the examples in the project are really old and usually don't use SwiftUI

Hi Apple Developer Community, Since March 2nd, we’ve been trying to register a corporate account for our U.S. company. However, we stopped receiving any updates after March 18th. The last message we received was: "We have received your documents and we'll contact you when an update is available." We’ve followed up several times since then, explaining that we have an app launch and a marketing campaign scheduled for early April, but we still haven’t heard back. Here are our ticket numbers: 102547989016 and 102558098664. Has anyone else experienced something similar, or does anyone know how we can get some help? We’ve provided all the requested information and are really worried about the delay. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I'm trying to add standard, non-unique database indexes to my Core Data entities for performance optimization (e.g., indexing Date or String attributes used in predicates and sort descriptors). I'm using Xcode 16.2 on macOS Sequoia 15.1. My problem is that I cannot find the expected UI element in the Core Data model editor (.xcdatamodeld) to configure these database indexes. What I Understand / Expect: I know the old "Indexed" checkbox on the Attribute Inspector is deprecated/gone. My understanding from recent documentation and tutorials is that database indexing (separate from Spotlight indexing) should be configured in the Entity Inspector (when the Entity itself is selected), within a section titled "Indexes" (usually located below "Constraints"). This "Indexes" section should allow adding individual or compound indexes that translate to SQL CREATE INDEX commands, distinct from uniqueness constraints. What I'm Experiencing: When I select an Entity in the model editor, the "Indexes" section is completely missing from the Data Model Inspector pane on the right. I see sections for Name, Class, Constraints, Spotlight, User Info, Versioning, etc., but no "Indexes" section appears between Constraints and Spotlight (or anywhere else). Troubleshooting Steps Taken: Verified Selection: I have confirmed I am selecting the Entity itself in the left-hand list, not an individual Attribute. Ruled out Spotlight Indexing: I understand the difference between database indexing (for internal query performance) and the "Index in Spotlight" checkbox/Core Spotlight framework (for system search). I specifically need the former. Basic Xcode Troubleshooting: I have tried restarting Xcode, cleaning the build folder (Shift+Command+K), and deleting the project's Derived Data. The "Indexes" section remains missing. Checked File Placement/Target Membership: Confirmed the .xcdatamodeld file is correctly included in the target. Its location in the project navigator doesn't seem relevant. Checked Model Versioning: Ensured the correct model version is set as "Current" in the File Inspector. Ruled out Other Features: Confirmed that Fetch Requests, Fetched Properties, and User Info keys are not the mechanisms for defining database indexes. Confirmed Not Project-Specific: I created a brand new, template-generated iOS App project with "Use Core Data" checked. In this new project, when selecting the default "Item" entity, the "Indexes" section is also missing from the Entity Inspector. This strongly suggests the issue is with my Xcode environment/version itself, not my specific project's setup. Considered Programmatic/Manual: I understand Core Data expects schema definitions (including indexes) declaratively in the model file. While manual XML editing of the contents file works (adding ... within the tag), this is not the desired or intended workflow via the standard tools. My Questions: What is the correct, current procedure for defining non-unique Core Data database indexes using the Xcode UI in Xcode 16.2? Has the location or method for configuring database indexes changed in this version of Xcode? If so, where is it now? Is the absence of the "Indexes" section in the Entity Inspector a known issue or intentional change for this Xcode version? If the standard UI method is unavailable, what is the officially recommended approach (other than manual XML editing)? I've reviewed the documentation ("Configuring Entities", "Configuring Attributes") and while screenshots show the inspectors, they don't definitively show the "Indexes" section within the Entity Inspector, sometimes focusing on attributes or potentially being cropped. Any clarification or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

The WatchOS developer is not allowed to obtain healthKit permission status. The result is always unauthorized (either by clicking the dot/cross in the upper left corner or by turning on all Health, on some, off all). WatchOS 开发获取 healthKit 的权限状态authorizationStatus不准。结果始终都是未授权（无论是点击左上角的点叉号还是开启全部健康项开关，开启部分，关闭所有），怎么处理？

I’m developing an app to save words that users learn in a language they are studying. Here’s the basic workflow: Type a new word Add the new word Every time a word is added, it gets saved to a list that includes its meaning and the name of the language — useful when saving words in multiple languages Problem: For some reason, the “Add new word” button only works for the first word. The second word is not being added to the list. Here is my code: import SwiftUI import NaturalLanguage import Translation struct ContentView: View { @State private var inputWord: String = "" @State private var detectedLanguage: String? @State private var translationConfiguration: TranslationSession.Configuration? @StateObject private var viewModel = WordViewModel() var body: some View { VStack(spacing: 24) { // Input field TextField("Type a word in any language", text: $inputWord) .padding() .background(Color(.systemGray6)) .cornerRadius(10) // Button to translate and save Button("Add new word") { translateAndSave() } // .disabled(inputWord.trimmingCharacters(in: .whitespacesAndNewlines).isEmpty) .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) // List of saved words Text("My Words") .font(.system(.title2)) List { ForEach(viewModel.words) { word in VStack(alignment: .leading, spacing: 4) { Text(word.inputWord) .font(.headline) Text(word.nativeTranslation) .font(.subheadline) .foregroundColor(.gray) Text(word.detectedLanguage.uppercased()) .font(.caption) .foregroundColor(.blue) } .padding(.vertical, 4) } } Spacer() } .padding() .animation(.easeInOut, value: detectedLanguage) // Automatically triggers translation when configuration changes .translationTask(translationConfiguration) { session in do { let response = try await session.translate(inputWord) viewModel.addWord( input: inputWord, native: response.targetText, detected: detectedLanguage ?? "Unknown" ) // Reset fields after saving inputWord = "" detectedLanguage = nil translationConfiguration = nil } catch { // Handle error print("Translation error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } } // Function to detect language private func detectLanguage() { let recognizer = NLLanguageRecognizer() recognizer.processString(inputWord) if let code = recognizer.dominantLanguage?.rawValue { let name = Locale.current.localizedString(forIdentifier: code) detectedLanguage = name?.capitalized } else { detectedLanguage = "Unable to detect" } } // Function to prepare translation private func translateAndSave() { detectLanguage() translationConfiguration = TranslationSession.Configuration( source: nil, target: Locale.Language(identifier: "en") ) } } Question: Does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix this?

I have an iOS app, and I am trying to add a companion WatchOS app. My iOS app depends on 2 libraries: GoogleMobileAds FirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport When I add a new target for WatchOS, the preview build starts to fail. I am not adding any libraries to WatchOS. The Google Ads and Firebase Analytics libs are only under the iOS target. I am unable to run the preview, I get an error when trying to build the watch scheme. The preview does not work. The build just crashes. I've included the error log below. But, here are the steps I've tried so far: Delete folders inside Derived Data Run a clean build (Cmd + Option + Shift + K) Delete scheme and create a new one Reset Package Cache Restart Xcode Restart Macbook But, it just does not work. I do not understand why the watchOS target is erroring for "GoogleUserMessagingPlatform" and "GoogleMobileAdsTarget" when those packages are not linked/used for the watchOS.

I have a project (that uses pre-compiled headers) that uses different compiler options for SOME files. For those files I have this is in my CMakelists.txt: if(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID MATCHES "GNU|Clang") set_source_files_properties(${AVX_Files} PROPERTIES COMPILE_OPTIONS "-mavx;-mavx2;-mfma;-mssse3;-msse4.2") set_source_files_properties(avx_simd_check.cpp PROPERTIES COMPILE_OPTIONS "-mxsave") endif() When I build for ARM, it all works :) When I try to build for X86_64, I get the following error for avx_simd_check.cpp: error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+xsave' but the AST file was not 1 error generated. and for all the other files in question: error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+avx' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+avx2' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+fma' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+sse4.2' but the AST file was not error: current translation unit is compiled with the target feature '+ssse3' but the AST file was not 5 errors generated.

I'm integrating Apple Pay with PayFort in a Swift iOS application, and I’m currently working on preparing a valid purchase request using Apple Pay, as described in PayFort’s documentation: 🔗 https://docsbeta.payfort.com/docs/api/build/index.html?shell#apple-pay-authorization-purchase-request The documentation outlines the following required parameters: apple_data apple_signature apple_header apple_transactionId apple_ephemeralPublicKey apple_publicKeyHash apple_paymentMethod apple_displayName apple_network apple_type Optional: apple_applicationData I understand these should be derived from the PKPayment object after Apple Pay authorization, but I’m having trouble mapping everything correctly. Here’s what I’m seeing in code: payment.token // Returns something like: <PKPaymentToken: 0x28080ae80; transactionIdentifier: "..."; paymentData: 3780 bytes> payment.token.paymentData // Contains 3780 bytes of encrypted data payment.token.paymentData.base64EncodedString() // Returns a long base64 string, which at first glance seems like it could be used for apple_data, // but PayFort doesn't accept it as-is — so this value appears to be incomplete or incorrectly formatted I can successfully retrieve the following values from payment.token.paymentMethod: apple_displayName apple_network apple_type However, I’m still unsure how to extract or build the following in the format accepted by PayFort: apple_data apple_signature apple_header apple_transactionId apple_ephemeralPublicKey apple_publicKeyHash apple_paymentMethod These may be contained within the paymentData JSON, but I’m not sure how to decode it or if Apple allows decrypting it in a way that matches PayFort’s expected format. How can I correctly extract or build apple_data, apple_signature, and apple_header from the Apple Pay token? Also, how should I handle the decryption or decoding (if necessary) of paymentData to retrieve values like apple_transactionId, apple_ephemeralPublicKey, and apple_publicKeyHash? If anyone has successfully set this up or has example code that bridges Apple Pay and PayFort’s expected request format, it would be super helpful! Thanks in advance 🙏

In Xcode, when you type a word like "don't", a second apostrophe is automatically inserted after the word and you have to manually delete it. Repro steps: Create a new empty Markdown file or XML file. Open the file in Xcode. Type the word “don’t”. Expected behavior: The word “don’t” appears. Observed behavior: The word “don’t” appears, followed by an extra single quote.

I’m having a problem with my Apple Developer subscription payment: 1️⃣ My card was successfully charged €99 – I have a confirmation email from the payment system 2️⃣ But my Apple Developer account shows "Order Canceled" – the cart displays this status Additionally, when I log into my account, it prompts me to register again as if the payment didn’t go through. Questions: How can I restore access to Apple Developer? What should I do about the payment—will it be refunded automatically, or do I need to contact support? Could this be a system error, and should I try paying again? Thanks in advance for your help!
