Reply to Title: MAS Sandbox Quarantine Flag Issue - Plugins Marked "Corrupt" by Host App
[quote='811450021, DMusic, /thread/811450, /profile/DMusic'] Is there [to] remove the quarantine attribute within the sandbox? [/quote] No. [quote='811450021, DMusic, /thread/811450, /profile/DMusic'] Is there any MAS-compliant way to move files without triggering quarantine … ? [/quote] No. Well, no-ish. The sandbox always quarantines files that you create, and a move is roughly equivalent to ‘create a new name for it here and then remove the old name for it there’. The only wiggle room I see is com.apple.security.files.user-selected.executable, which allows a sandboxed app to create executables. However: I’m not sure whether it’ll actually help you in this case. The behaviour of that entitlement is not well documented, and I’ve never had a need to dig into it in depth. I suspect it’s limited to locations that the user has explicitly selected with the save panel. Even if it does, I believe that App Review scrutinises its use very carefully, and it’s not clear whether they’d allow it [1]. IMPORTANT I don’t wo

Reply to Questions about macOS App Store update package generation and optimization
While the doc you referenced [1] doesn’t say so explicitly, I believe that it’s assuming an iOS audience. Note that it references numerous other iOS-specific things, like on-demand resources, app thinning, and IPAs.

Reply to Multipeer Connectivity support
My general advice here is to avoid Multipeer Connectivity, and instead focus your efforts on Network framework. TN3151 Choosing the right networking API talks about this more, and I have specific guidance in Moving from Multipeer Connectivity to Network Framework. [quote='869271022, PellePepper, /thread/11964?answerId=869271022#869271022, /profile/PellePepper'] Connection is lost or cannot be established again. [/quote] One key issue with Multipeer Connectivity is that it’s tricky to separate link-layer issues — that is, problems with peer-to-peer Wi-Fi — from transport layer issues. That makes investigating problems like this a lot harder than it is with Network framework, which makes a clear distinction between the two. [quote='869271022, PellePepper, /thread/11964?answerId=869271022#869271022, /profile/PellePepper'] Is there a possibility to connect two iOS-Devices via cable-connection to improve stability? [/quote] Yep, just use Ethernet, along with two USB Ethernet dongles, which iOS supports out the box

Reply to mDNSResponder: legacy OpenSSL licence
[quote='810086021, yellow_byte, /thread/810086, /profile/yellow_byte'] the reference ID is FB21269078. [/quote] Thanks for that. I think that’s the best path forward for this. DevForums is primarily focused on helping folks with the APIs in Apple’s various platform SDKs, and we’re not really set up to help with open source efforts [1].

Reply to Notarization wipes the "Icon?" file
I agree with red_menace that you don’t want to be using a custom icon for this. That’s super brittle. If you using Script Editor to save a new application, it has already set up all the bits you need: % plutil -p Test811273.app/Contents/Info.plist { … CFBundleIconFile => applet CFBundleIconName => applet … } % file Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/applet.icns Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/applet.icns: Mac OS X icon… % file Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/Assets.car Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/Assets.car: Mac OS X bill of materials (BOM) file To get the right icon, replace applet.icns with your own: % cp /Applications/Pages.app/Contents/Resources/AppIcon.icns Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/applet.icns % rm Test811273.app/Contents/Resources/Assets.car After doing this, zip and unzip the app so that the Finder refreshes. Now, in this case I nixed the Assets.car entirely, so that macOS falls back to applet.icns. A better way to do it would be to use Xcode to build a dummy app with the right

Reply to macOS 14.8 Keychain Import Fails for PKCS#12 Files Generated with OpenSSL 3.4.0
In macOS 15 we updated the system to work with modern PKCS#12 crypto algorithms. macOS 14 doesn’t have that fix, so it can only import PKCS#12 items with legacy crypto. To get that with the openssl tool, pass in the -legacy. I don’t know what that does at the OpenSSL API layer.

No more possible to properly size images in a forums post ?
I used to resize images (editing width and height when writing the post) in order to avoid ridiculously large images in reading published post. Since a few weeks, that does not work anymore. When I edit, I see the reduced size in Live Preview: But once posted, images are much larger as seen below: Looks like the image is now resized to fill full width. I filed a bug report: Dec 27, 2025 at 1:43 PM – FB21446929 PS: that change ignores @eskimo wise advice Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips n°10 (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/706527).

Reply to Notarization Rejection - The binary is not signed with a valid Developer ID certificate
There are two ways you could interpret that error: Focus on the “valid Developer ID certificate” part. Focus on the “The binary is not signed” part. My experience is that the latter interpretation is more helpful. That is, there’s nothing wrong with your Developer ID certificate but rather there’s something wrong with your packaging that’s preventing the notary service from verifying its code signature. Having said that, this is a strange: [quote='811481021, AbsurdFish, /thread/811481, /profile/AbsurdFish'] Re-tested with minimal test package - same error persists [/quote] How are you creating this minimal test? With Xcode? Here’s the diagnostic test I recommend: Create a new test project in Xcode, using the macOS > App template. Choose Product > Archive. In the Xcode organiser, click Distribute App and follow the Custom > Direct Distribution > Export path. That produces a folder containing your app binary. Use ditto to create a zip archive from that, as explained in Packaging Mac software for dis

Reply to How to properly register a macOS System Extension in an Electron app?
What ssmith_c said plus… com.apple.developer.system-extension.install is a restricted entitlement, that is, one that must be authorised by a provisioning profile. If you were using Xcode, it would take care of this for you. Given that you’re not, you have to do this by hand. There are a bunch of resources to help you with this: Creating distribution-signed code for macOS has general info about that. TN3125 Inside Code Signing: Provisioning Profiles has background on how provisioning profiles work. Resolving Trusted Execution Problems has a ‘child’ post that explains how to debug issues like this.

Reply to How can I get the last Wi-Fi disconnection reason ?
I presume we’re talking iOS here. If not, lemme know. AFAIK there’s no API for this. If you’d like to that added in the future, I encourage you to file an enhancement request describing your requirements. Please post your bug number, just for the record. For a catalogue of the Wi-Fi APIs that are available on iOS, see TN3111 iOS Wi-Fi API overview.
