macOS Golden Gate Beta battery percentage appearance
Hello! First time posting here. As I'm using the fourth macOS Golden Gate public beta now, I'd love to see if there's more people who also think the battery percentage inside the icon looks unreadable. Dear Apple devs, could you please change the size of the battery icon or place the battery percentage outside, how it used to be in the older macOS versions? I don't have the poorest vision, yet it's still quite difficult to see it.

Did you know that you can't make calls on the iPhone 17 Pro Max if you use two eSIMs?
You know that you can install up to 9 eSIMs and activate 2, right? I use two activated eSIMs, but when I turn them both on, it says my location cannot be found. I only get through when I make calls, and I receive very few calls. When I answer a call, one of the two SIMs turns off. My carrier and Apple say they are currently looking into this, but where can I get a response? I am trying to surrender my current phone and watch for repair for the sake of public interest, even if it means sacrificing privacy, but I have no way to do so. What is even more ridiculous is that the paired watch does not match the watch name or the actual watch itself. It looks as if someone else's watch has been paired. The digital crown, gestures, and health sensors are not working. I am just using the watch as a speaker to listen to music. None of the functions work. If Developer Mode were enabled, I could force gestures to work through Accessibility, but Developer Mode won't turn on.

Xcode 26 keeps telling you "Not Signed In" after you authorize Claude or Codex in the browser?
If you're on an Intel Mac, here's the reason and the fix. Cost me an evening, and I found nothing online except closed bug reports with the same symptom. The problem: The browser flow works fine. You authorize, the page confirms, Xcode acts like nothing happened, no error anywhere. Xcode only downloads the Apple Silicon (arm64) build of its agent binaries. On Intel they can't run at all. The process meant to receive your login dies instantly with "bad CPU type in executable" and Xcode never surfaces it. Check if this is you: file ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/Agents/claude/*/claude If it says arm64 and your Mac is Intel, that's the problem. The fix: Open the Info.plist next to the binary. It has the exact download URL. Download the x64 build of the same version. → Claude: change darwin-arm64 to darwin-x64 in that URL. → Codex: grab codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz from the matching rust-v release on GitHub. Replace the binary and make it executable: chmod 755 Update the checksum in Info.plist. It's a plain SHA-512: shasum -a 512 Restart Xcode and sign in again. Bonus (Claude Pro / Max) Run claude setup-token in Terminal, then add the token to: ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/ClaudeAgentConfig/settings.json {"env": {"CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN": "your-token"}} Pick "Authenticate with Configuration File" in the agent menu. Runs on your subscription no API key. Heads up: an Xcode update can re-download the wrong binary, so you may have to repeat this until Apple fixes the architecture detection.

ChatGPT in an Xcode 27.5 window won't clear last chat
I am using Xcode 27.5 beta along with the integration of Claude and Chatgpt sessions in the same project screen. When I post a message in a chat with Chatgpt, once it finished reading and replying back, the message I sent shows back up in the message box. I have to manually delete when I want to post a reply. Claude does not do this. Is there a setting I am missing? Thank You

Dictionary Bundles not Scrolling when text expanded
Just posting this so it's documented somewhere. I think the onus is on apple to fix it, but I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere. When a Dictionary.app entry's content grows taller after the entry has already loaded via /, a CSS-only checkbox/:checked toggle, or JavaScript toggling display/class, the WebView's internal layout correctly reflows to the new height, but the surrounding native scroll view's content size does not update to match. The added content is visible but expanded below the window and cannot be scrolled down to. Resizing the window or the sidebar within the dictionary app enables scrolling as expected, but then collapsing the content, without resizing you can still scroll to the prior (now empty) extent of the then-expanded section. Environment: macOS 26.5.1 Dictionary.app 2.3.0 Not sure how to find the DDK version but I'm pretty sure that doesn't matter

Enrolment stuck and no response on emails or calls
Hello everyone, I recently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program, and my enrollment has been stuck on: “Your enrollment is being processed.” I’d like to ask the community/Apple support: How long did your enrollment take to get approved? Has anyone recently experienced the same delay? Did contacting Apple Developer Support help speed up the process? Is there anything specific I should do while the enrollment is being processed? Should I start a new application? I understand that enrollment may require verification, but the lack of progress is making it difficult to plan our development and app launch timeline. With a big marketingbudget and timelines this has become a significant challenge. Any recent experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Folder and file names won't rotate when repeatedly pressed their starting letter
I have various folders named say David Decline Dollar If I press the letter D, Finder highlights David, and nothing else. If I keep pressing dddd it doesn't move. However, if I start typing "De" it will jump to Decline. The behaviour is also weirder. David (file) Decline (folder) Dollar (folder) Sometimes pressing D will skip the file and never highlight it, it will jump straight to Decline.

Apple Developer Enrollment Stuck on “Your enrollment is being processed” — How Long Did It Take You?
Hello everyone, I recently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program, and my enrollment has been stuck on: “Your enrollment is being processed.” I’d like to ask the community: How long did your enrollment take to get approved? Has anyone recently experienced the same delay? How many days did you wait before Apple completed the enrollment? Did contacting Apple Developer Support help speed up the process? Is there anything specific I should do while the enrollment is being processed? I understand that enrollment may require verification, but the lack of progress is making it difficult to plan our development and app launch timeline. Any recent experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

My Legal Name Has No Surname — Why Can’t Apple Provide a Solution?
My legal name is SUNIL, and my government-issued ID contains only SUNIL. I have no surname/family name. My father’s name is SANTOSH, but he also has no surname, so I cannot use his name as my surname. I contacted Developer Support, and a senior Advisor told me that individual enrollment requires both a first and last name matching my ID. However, I still don't know how a person with a single legal name should complete the enrollment fields. Apple's documentation about mononymous names says a single name can be represented as the familyName. Does this apply to Apple Developer Program enrollment? Apple Support or anyone who has successfully enrolled with a single legal name: what is the correct way to complete the First Name and Last Name fields?

Is the order of UIApplication.connectedScenes guaranteed across scene roles on iOS 27?
On iOS 27 beta 3, scene(_:willConnectTo:options:) is now called twice at launch — once for a .windowApplication scene, and once for a keyboard input scene (_UISceneSessionRoleKeyboardInputScene). On earlier iOS versions only the .windowApplication scene was delivered. Parts of my code read connectedScenes and take the first element, e.g.: UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first?.delegate as! SceneDelegate In my testing the .windowApplication scene is always first, so .first still works — but I can't find any documentation confirming this ordering. Questions: Is the order of connectedScenes guaranteed (is .windowApplication always first), or should it be treated as unordered? Should I instead always filter explicitly, e.g. first { $0 is UIWindowScene && $0.session.role == .windowApplication }? Is delivering the keyboard-input scene to the app's UIWindowSceneDelegate intended on iOS 27, or a beta artifact? FB24389661 (Ordering of UIApplication.connectedScenes not documented when multiple scene roles connect (iOS 27)

Stuck enrollment for days – repeated ignored call-backs and no email replies
Hello, I am completely stuck trying to complete my Apple Developer Program enrollment and I need help. Key details: I have gone through the enrollment process multiple times. Most recently I signed the license agreement, entered my card details (no CVV was requested), and received the email saying the order is being processed. The account is still stuck on the “Purchase your membership – complete your purchase now” screen. I have opened multiple support cases and followed up by email. I have received no replies. The “Request a Call” option is also not working. I have requested call-backs several times and Apple never calls. This has been going on for over a month now and is extremely frustrating - I don't know if all Apple developers have gone through this, or it is just me. I am unable to move forward with development because of this blockage. Enrollment ID: 273KBDCBXB Could someone please look into this enrollment and tell me what is still blocking it? Thank you.

Can't submit IAP for review
Looking for some advice to get past a road block submitting a macOS app for review with an In-App Purchase. The IAP is a non-consumable one time purchase that will unlock additional features. I've submitted a new version of the app but when I try to attache the IAP I get a warning: Unable to Submit for Review Your first non-consumable in-app purchase must be submitted with a new app version. Anyone able to shed some light? This is my first attempt at attaching an IAP and I'm stumped. Thanks, in advance.
