Reply to How to get help with Signing and Notarization...
[quote='843058021, sbatson01, /thread/843058, /profile/sbatson01'] I get a popup indicating that that it's trying to sign in to Keychain using my first Name (Steve). [/quote] Well, that’s weird because the keychain unlock alert normally only requests the keychain password. There is no user name. So… Please post a screenshot of the alert you’re seeing. Also, launch Keychain Access, select login on the left and My Certificates at the top, grab a screenshot of that, and post it as well.

Reply to How to release an App ID stuck on a personal (free) team so it can be registered under my paid organization team?
[quote='843925021, Loren-86, /thread/843925, /profile/Loren-86'] Is there any self-service way to release an App ID from a personal team … ? [/quote] No. A Personal Team has strict limits [1] and so you’ll find that the App ID expires pretty promptly. But the quickest way to resolve this issue is to change your app’s bundle ID. That makes it a new app from the perspective of Apple’s tooling. Normally changing the app’s bundle ID is a Big Deal™ but that’s not the case here because of the afore-mentioned limits on your Personal Team.

Reply to Error in transporter to upload the pkg to app store connect
I don’t think you’ll find the answers you seek here on the Apple Developer Forums. Our focus is on Apple APIs and tools, and the issue you’re hitting is very much tied to your use of third-party tooling. In cases like that you need to either: Seek help from support resource for that tooling. Or if the tooling is open source, investigate the issues yourself. On the Apple side of things, I recommend that you start by using the Xcode to create a test project and upload that using the Xcode organiser. You can then use the organiser to export that app, package it using command-line tools, and then upload it using altool. See Packaging Mac software for distribution for packaging instructions. I suspect that’ll work successfully and, if it does, you can use it as a baseline to drive your investigation of the issue you’re hitting with your third-party tooling.

Reply to Does SecItemDelete guarantee immediate invalidation of an already-retained Secure Enclave SecKeyRef on macOS?
Why does this matter to you? I’d like to know because words like this… [quote='843527021, hjvoryn, /thread/843527, /profile/hjvoryn'] contractually guarantee [/quote] suggest that you’re going to ship a product that relies on the exact behaviour here. And AFAICT the exact behaviour isn’t documented, making it an implementation detail, and thus there is no guaranteed behaviour.

Reply to Develop Certificate Has Wrong Apple ID???
I’m glad to hear you got this sorted.

Reply to Memory leak in CFNetwork (PACClient/PACQuery) when using NETransparentProxyProvider with Auto Proxy Discovery enabled
This is ringing some bells, but I wasn’t able to track down the place where I’ve seen it before. But the answer here is pretty much always the system. If the system is leaking objects of a type that you’ve never touched, it’s most likely a bug in the system rather than a bug in your code. Normally I’d send you straight off to file a bug, but in this case I think it’d be worthwhile for you to test on the latest system (including the latest macOS 27 beta) to make sure we’ve not fixed it already. If you do file a bug, please post your bug number, just for the record. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = eskimo + 1 + @ + apple.com

Reply to Are already published apps allowed
There are two ways to think about this: What are the official rules? Within the bounds of those rules, what should you do? We can’t meaningfully discuss the first point because: The 2026 Swift Student Challenge has closed, so last year’s fine print is irrelevant. There’s been no announcement about a subsequent Swift Student Challenge, so we’ve no idea what its fine print will look like (or if it’ll even exist). As to the second point, I don’t have any official advice on that front. Speaking personally, I feel that the best challenge entries are the ones that tell a story, and so you need to think about how your plan fits in with the story you want to tell.

Reply to AssetPackManager.shared traps on macOS 27 seed 6
Are you seeing this in standard user scenarios? Or on your work Mac? The reason I ask is that it seems that this crash is related to Launch Services finding the ‘wrong’ version of your app (well, the appex within your app). Such problems are common on development Macs, and my general advice is rule them out by retest as most users use your app, that is, with a single copy of the app in the Application folder. Having said that, this trap isn’t any fun and we’ll use your bug, FB24525451, to decide what to do about that.

Reply to Background HTTPS upload over cellular from a phoneless Apple Watch — any supported path?
Lemme start you out with iOS Background Execution Limits. While that specifically refers to iOS, a lot of the context is relevant on the watch as well. I want to focus on this part of your question: [quote='843751021, BioLinkAlex, /thread/843751, /profile/BioLinkAlex'] that periodically uploads small HTTPS payloads [/quote] How is your app getting execution time to kick off this upload?

Reply to Can an iOS app detect when cellular is disabled while Wi-Fi remains enabled?
[quote='843544021, Colin30, /thread/843544, /profile/Colin30'] Is there any supported public API … to reliably determine … [/quote] Not really. There are APIs that let you introspect the networking stack, but they all come with caveats. For example: There’s a difference between cellular being disabled and WWAN not working. There’s a difference between WWAN not working and your app have access to WWAN. Similar for Wi-Fi. Remember that ‘disabling’ Wi-Fi in Control Centre is different from disabling it in Settings. And that on an iPhone bought in China the user has the option to disable Wi-Fi access in addition to disabling WWAN access. Options like Ethernet significantly muddy the waters. So, questions like this inevitably boil down to what exactly you’re trying to achieve. A lot of the time there are options that work for specific scenarios that don’t work generally. Anyway, lemme point you in the direction of Extra-ordinary Networking, which links to a bunch of other posts that explain a lot of the background
