I am running VisionOS 1.0.3. On the software update page, there is no option to install a beta. I don't see any setting that would enable/disable this... anyone have any suggestions?

FeedbackID: FB13636921 I'm using /usr/sbin/screencapture -v -x -C -k -R 0,0,500,500 /path/to/a/movfile/in/a/folder/in/my/apps/sandbox/Group/Container in my app to allow users to capture screenshots and recordings. Screenshots keep working fine on macOS Sonoma 14.4b23E5196e, but video recordings no longer work. I'm guessing the following log output has something to do with it: default 15:01:53.151819+0100 screencapture sampleBuffer: start recording time: 3123.604833 target: 3123.474266, overshot: 0.130568 error 15:01:53.185179+0100 screencapture <private>:246:<private> Not writable url (null).!folderIsWritable == true error 15:01:53.185236+0100 screencapture <private>:50:<private> We could not create a byte stream! error 15:01:53.185252+0100 screencapture <private>:87:<private> NULL byte stream. error 15:01:53.185298+0100 screencapture <private>:3479:<private> ### Err -45, error 15:01:53.185312+0100 screencapture <private>:3814:<private> ### Err -45, error 15:01:53.185334+0100 screencapture <<<< AVCaptureMovieFileOutput >>>> Fig assert: "status == 0 " at (AVCaptureMovieFileOutput.m:2522) - CMIOFileWritingControlTokenStartWriting (err=-45) error 15:01:53.185374+0100 screencapture <private>:1885:<private> ### Err -67452, error 15:01:53.185388+0100 screencapture <private>:303:<private> FigMovieFormatFileWriter::PostProcessMovie: WriteMovie() errored!!! -67452 error 15:01:53.185476+0100 screencapture <private>:4687:<private> consolidate movie fragments err : -17913 default 15:01:53.185610+0100 screencapture <<<< AVError >>>> AVLocalizedErrorWithUnderlyingOSStatus: Returning error (AVFoundationErrorDomain / -11800) status (-45) default 15:01:53.186201+0100 screencapture didFinishRecording: No trim finish. duration: 0.000000s size: 0, error: Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11800 "The operation could not be completed" UserInfo={AVErrorRecordingSuccessfullyFinishedKey=false, NSLocalizedDescription=The operation could not be completed, NSLocalizedFailureReason=An unknown error occurred (-45), NSURL=file:///Users/eternalstorms/Library/Group%20Containers/group.com.apple.screencapture/ScreenRecordings/3ED15EE7-A814-47A7-A398-29D5A6AD03C1.mov, NSUnderlyingError=0x6000031d80c0 {Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-45 "fLckdErr: file is locked"}} error 15:01:53.186290+0100 screencapture recording failed.

In our mac catalyst app we access AppKit api's by using MacOS bundle(plugin). when using CGDisplayCreateImage(_: CGDirectDisplayID, rect: CGRect) method the plugin crashes. Implementation: @objc func windowMoved(_ notification: NSNotification) { guard let win = self.window else { return } let displayId = CGMainDisplayID() let winRect = win.contentView?.convert(qrRect, from: self) var rect = win.convertToScreen(winRect ?? self.bounds) if let screenFrame = NSScreen.main?.visibleFrame { rect.origin.y = screenFrame.height - rect.maxY rect.origin.y += screenFrame.minY + win.titlebarHeight } guard let image = CGDisplayCreateImage( displayId, rect: rect) else { return } guard let qrString = image.detectQRCode().first else { return } // ... } Crash report in printed in console: -[RPDaemonProxy proxyCoreGraphicsWithMethodType:config:machPort:completionHandler:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x600000500960 ( 0 CoreFoundation 0x00000001931deccc __exceptionPreprocess + 176 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x0000000192cc6788 objc_exception_throw + 60 2 CoreFoundation 0x000000019329102c -[NSObject(NSObject) __retain_OA] + 0 3 CoreFoundation 0x0000000193148a80 ___forwarding___ + 976 4 CoreFoundation 0x00000001931485f0 _CF_forwarding_prep_0 + 96 5 ScreenCaptureKit 0x0000000227d9d95c SLSHWCaptureDesktopProxying + 692 6 SkyLight 0x0000000198b370a8 SLSHWCaptureDesktop + 488 7 SkyLight 0x0000000198b3b1ac SLSDisplayCreateImage + 252 8 MacPlugin 0x0000000112e0d374 $s9MacPlugin14MZMacQrScannerC11windowMovedyySo14NSNotificationCF + 1500 9 MacPlugin 0x0000000112e0d714 $s9MacPlugin14MZMacQrScannerC11windowMovedyySo14NSNotificationCFTo + 52 10 CoreFoundation 0x000000019315eb1c __CFNOTIFICATIONCENTER_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_AN_OBSERVER__ + 148 11 CoreFoundation 0x00000001931f2db8 ___CFXRegistrationPost_block_invoke + 88 12 CoreFoundation 0x00000001931f2d00 _CFXRegistrationPost + 440 13 CoreFoundation 0x000000019312d648 _CFXNotificationPost + 768 14 Foundation 0x0000000194249434 -[NSNotificationCenter postNotificationName:object:userInfo:] + 88 15 AppKit 0x00000001969ffbfc -[NSWindow _setFrameCommon:display:fromServer:] + 2056 16 AppKit 0x0000000197475080 -[NSWindow _windowMovedToRect:dueToMoveEvent:] + 184 17 AppKit 0x0000000196ae8630 -[NSWindow _windowMoved:] + 832 18 AppKit 0x0000000196ae82a4 -[NSWindow _internalHandleAppKitDefinedEvent:] + 152 19 AppKit 0x0000000196ae8074 -[NSWindow(NSEventRouting) _reallySendEvent:isDelayedEvent:] + 528 20 AppKit 0x0000000196ae7c90 -[NSWindow(NSEventRouting) sendEvent:] + 284 21 AppKit 0x00000001971adda8 -[NSApplication(NSEventRouting) sendEvent:] + 1800 22 UIKitMacHelper 0x00000001acb964f8 -[NSApplication(UINSApplicationSwizzling) _uinsSwizzledSendEvent:] + 252 23 AppKit 0x0000000196dfb954 -[NSApplication _handleEvent:] + 60 24 AppKit 0x00000001969afd24 -[NSApplication run] + 512 25 AppKit 0x0000000196986fa4 NSApplicationMain + 880 26 AppKit 0x0000000196bd9798 +[NSWindow _savedFrameFromString:] + 0 27 UIKitMacHelper 0x00000001acb82198 UINSApplicationMain + 972 28 UIKitCore 0x00000001c2ea2924 UIApplicationMain + 148 29 MyApp-DEBUG 0x00000001049d2d04 main + 64 30 dyld 0x0000000192d020e0 start + 2360 This is working fine in all previous version but crashing in macOS beta 14.4 and 14.4.1.

I'm currently experimenting with the latest Xcode beta 15.3 (15E5194e) and attempting to integrate FinanceKit](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/financekit) into my project. However, I've encountered a persistent issue where the app crashes upon attempting to read or request authorization, accompanied by the following error message: FinanceKit/FinanceStore+FinancialDataAuthorization.swift:52: Fatal error: Process is not entitled Upon investigation, I've found no evident entitlements for FinanceKit, despite exploring options like Apple Wallet. Furthermore, I thoroughly examined the info.plist for relevant privacy values but found nothing pertinent. Here's the code snippet that triggers the fatal error, whether it's the request or read function: I don't see anything in entitlements for FinanceKit (I tried Apple Wallet and that didn't make a difference). Additionally, I checked for relevant privacy values for the info.plist but again didn't see anything relevant. Here is the code to reproduce the error (note calling either function will result in the same fatal error): import FinanceKit import UIKit class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() requestFinancePermission() // readFinancePermission() } private func requestFinancePermission() { Task { do { let status = try await FinanceStore.shared.requestAuthorization() } catch { print("Error: \(error)") } } } private func readFinancePermission() { Task { do { let status = try await FinanceStore.shared.authorizationStatus() } catch { print("Error: \(error)") } } } } I'm seeking clarification on whether FinanceKit is currently usable or if there are additional steps needed for proper integration. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have an app in the app store which is working fine. Some users reported that they have app crashing when they are using iOS 17.4 beta. I could recreate the issue and it is happening when ModelContainer is crerated. This code.. do { let configuration = ModelConfiguration(for: MyTodo.self, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) modelContainer = try ModelContainer(for: MyTodo.self, configurations: configuration) } catch { fatalError("Failed to load model container.\(error)") } is throwing this error message: Fatal error: Failed to load model container.SwiftDataError(_error: SwiftData.SwiftDataError._Error.loadIssueModelContainer)

I have two release trains going in TestFlight: The App Store version v1.0(0) with bug fixes v1.0(1), v1.0(2), etc. The next feature version with additional functionalities of the app v1.1(0), v1.1(1), v1.1(2), etc. Is there any way to have v1.0(x) be for internal testing, and have v1.1(x) be for external testing? I really need to start external testing the next release of the app in TestFlight, while also bug fixing the current version of the app in TestFlight. Thanks!

CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex function isn't generating cgImage for majority of the images on iOS 17.4 OS version. It works if I pass in option kCGImageSourceThumbnailMaxPixelSize, but doesn't work if this key is missing. This function works with and without kCGImageSourceThumbnailMaxPixelSize in stable OS versions. Is this a new change in iOS 17.4 beta versions?

For external testing through testflight, there is app review process. Link: https://developer.apple.com/testflight/ Planning to submit an app for external testing. However, the backend of the App is an test environment. Is that ok for the **external testing app review process **. The test environment is behind IP restriction. a. Can we provide VPN credentials to apple team for app access and complete the **external testing app review process ** OR b. Does apple team have any IP addresses, that can be add it to our testing environment.

Since the 1st of January, out of nothing my test device starts to behave like it did during the test of iOS 17 beta 5. The device doesn't find any wifi network anymore and most of the time it disables the functionality completely. The button to toggle on wifi is inactive and can't be changed. So I went thru some post and tried a lot of stuff. I reset the network, not help I tried to remove the networks that could be the issue, remove = ok, but no solution I tried to inactivate the reverse proxy stuff, seems it wasn't even activated. But quite difficult to get there, cause most of the time no window is shown Airdrop doesn't work, but it suggests me to activate wi-fi, but no luck I can't set on the Cellar Data to use it when the wi-fi connection is to bad I did a downgrade to iOS 17.3 beta, cause yes, I was able to do the update before the withdraw of Apple for the version iOS 17.3 beta2 and at the beginning the wifi seemed to work, the device saw multiple wifi networks, but wasn't able to connect to them. And after that the device came back to the situation as before. So it was of short moment, but I was able with a lot of lag, to see the different wi-fi settings, and they seemed all good to me. As there is no wi-fi, on cellar data (4G/5G), I can not do a backup for the amount of data. The problem is that the device is to full and to slow (66GB of the 250GB the device has) to complete versus the MacBook or iCloud. Any suggestion would be great, if there is none, I will do like the last time and do a full restore, with a backup from some time ago.

I have been using the HomePod 17.3 Beta for while and wanted to reset it yesterday. Now I can not set up both my HomePods (one OG and one Mini) anymore. Setup with iPhone and iPad keeps failing after 2 minutes. When the Mini is plugged into the Mac and I click "restore" I get an error message "Update server could not be contacted". Any idea?

Has anyone experienced Touch ID no longer working on Magic Keyboard after installing 14.3? It's almost as if the Mac doesn't understand there is a reader on the keyboard because I don't get the fingerprint image anymore when it's asking me for it. Touch ID works fine when I am using the built-in reader, but I normally have my Macbook closed and use the Magic Keyboard.

Hi, I am using the Apple TV application on a computer with Windows 10. For some time now I have had problems with playing video material. It often happens that there is a black screen in the background, there is sound playing and at some point the entire application freezes. only restarting the computer will help. I was looking for a solution on the Internet and found that many people had a similar problem. The second problem is that the video cannot be played at all, and video clips do not work in the Apple Music application. Only resetting the application helps. The attached video shows a problem with displaying subtitles embedded in the movie "An Apple Original", this problem does not occur in trailers, etc. This can be seen at the end of the trailer where the inscription "December 15 ", he just doesn't blink. I would like to point out that this effect does not occur when I watch it through the Chrome browser. I use the application because it is possible to download a movie/series to disk, which allows me to eliminate any overdubs and jams by streaming directly. From what you can see, both applications are in the beta, preview phase. Have any of you had similar problems? Where can I report it so that developers (I don't know if it's Apple or Microsoft) eliminate it? So when will both applications be released in their final version? https://photos.app.goo.gl/1zuyLS5KjGhSRHM87 Thank you in advance for your answer and help. Regards.

A few days ago, when I opened Apple Wallet, I got a message saying it was not working. All of the cards listed also said they were not working as well. This isn't a payment issue--the wallet itself is not working. After rebooting my phone several times and deleting and re-downloading the app several times, I finally got someone from their tech support who suggested that the Public Beta 17.2 update was the issue, and she suggested I wipe my phone and re-download the earliest iCloud back up I had. Well, I did this, and unfortunately my 15 Pro Max is new, and the download was from my 13 Pro Max, which included the Public Beta 17.2 update. So, Apple Wallet is still not working and I cannot use Apple Pay. Is anybody else having this issue? It is so frustrating, because if the 17.2 update is the issue, I can't get it off my phone. And when I called support again, the agent literally put me on hold and never returned. I have looked at all the ways to remove an update, but none have worked.

Just now, I accidentally deleted Xcode15.1 Beta3. Now I want to download it again, but I found that Xcode 15.1 Release Candidate replaced Xcode15.1 Beta3 in https://developer.apple.com/download/applications/, but there is no visionOS SDK in Xcode 15.1 Release Candidate, so I really need to download Xcode15.1 Beta3 now. Who has any way for me to download it again?
