Hi Forum, we developing an iOS SDK (framework) that will be used by our customer apps. The SDk will be hosted and distributed using cocoapod. The framework intern will use another vendor SDK / Framework and the vendor is asking bundle id to generate the license key. But as we are developing SDK and not an app, we do not have bundle id to share. How generally the licensing should be arranged in this cases (when a SDK is depends on another). Thanks, SD

Hello, I can't simulate my app because my Cpf bundle app is incorect someone know what is the problem about my cpf.

I have an application, released a few years back. The bundle ID starts with a digit, this used to be allowed. Now Xcode replaces the digit with a dash -, ie. 7K998EA8RN.org.nelsonmandela.quotes becomes -K998EA8RN.org.nelsonmandela.quotes Therefore on upload I get an error saying that the bundle ID does not match. If I end it the info manually and set the Bundle ID there, I can make it further down the process but still errors out as the application-identifier still becomes A8V6VR9K7C.-K998EA8RN.org.nelsonmandela.quotes the error returned is: ERROR ITMS-90046: "Invalid Code Signing Entitlements. Your application bundle's signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported on iOS. Specifically, value 'A8V6VR9K7C.-K998EA8RN.org.nelsonmandela.quotes' for key 'application-identifier' in 'Payload/MandelaQuotes.app/MandelaQuotes' is not supported. This value should be a string starting with your TEAMID, followed by a dot '.', followed by the bundle identifier." Any idea on how to resolve this to push an update to this existing application? Thanks

What is to stop an attacker from creating a separate app with the bundle identifier of my app (minus the last component and with a fake last component), distributing it to users, then stealing the identifierForVendor? On Android there is this concept of ANDROID_ID that is shared across apps based on app signing key, which is much harder to steal and can be used for multiple apps on a team. On IOS the equivalent of sharing app signing key is to be in the same app group. Are there any plans to have an identifier that is shared across app groups? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com_apple_security_application-groups

An attribute in the provided entity has invalid value An App ID with Identifier 'com.mycompanyname.app.mobile' is not available. Please enter a different string. I am encountering this error, but I cannot solve the problem, I request your urgent support.

I am trying to submit my App CaptureEclipse (AppleID 1567295651; AlmadenObservatory.CaptureEclipse) for release on the Apple Mac App Store.  I am having a problem with getting the App Validated.  The app includes the Canon EDSDK framework which includes two bundles CHHLLITE and EdsImage.  Using the simple path of submitting the running code to Archive I get the following error during Validate for each bundle CFBundleIdentifier Collision The info.plist …. Is already in use by another application. I have tried following the instructions I have found from Apple Websites {cited below} to no avail.  I have also tried following advice from 3rd party websites. Some of them allow the app to validate, but then it is unable to load the bundles. Note that A-5 asked the same question for the same code on the developer forum 4 years ago and never received an answer. This cannot be a unique problem and I am sure it is an RTFM, but I cannot find the proper “M” to “R”.  Please help References  - Apple A-1 Signing a Mac Product For Distribution -         https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/128166 Does not discuss included frameworks A-2 TN2206 https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2206/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40007919-CH1-TNTAG314 robhawley@Robs-Mac-Pro EDSDK.framework % codesign -f -v -s "Apple Distribution: robert hawley" Versions/A             Versions/A: replacing existing signature            Versions/A: signed bundle with Mach-O thin (x86_64) [com.canon.edsdk]         Code Ran Successfully        Validate:  Both bundles reported CFBundleIdentifier Collision {} already in use by another application   A-3 Code Signing Tasks https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Security/Conceptual/CodeSigningGuide/Procedures/Procedures.html followed “Using Library Validation” but did not change result A-4 Developer Forums: CFBundleIdentifier Collision for using FMOD https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/678131 Similar to O-2 below (but did not suggest resigning).  I gave it a try robhawley@Robs-Mac-Pro Framework % codesign -f -v --remove-signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/CHHLLite.bundle  EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/CHHLLite.bundle: replacing existing signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/CHHLLite.bundle: signed  [] robhawley@Robs-Mac-Pro Framework % codesign -f -v --remove-signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EdsImage.bundle  EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EdsImage.bundle: replacing existing signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EdsImage.bundle: signed  [] robhawley@Robs-Mac-Pro Framework % codesign -f -v --remove-signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EDSDK           EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EDSDK: replacing existing signature EDSDK.framework/Versions/A/EDSDK: signed  [] The result is that code sign failed during the XCode build probably because the signing identifier (mine) did not match what was in the bundle (theirs).

Hello Apple Forum friends. We launched an application on app store few years back and its live and running. Now we have created an upgraded version of this app independent to old app's xcode project. We have finished developing our first releasable product and are ready to publish on app store but we do not want to publish it as a separate app, instead we want to publish as an update of old app which is available on app store. These two apps now use different bundle id, so is there any possible way to publish it as an update ?

while trying to release the build, if select adhoc or development am getting this error 'the data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format'

Is there any specific character length that we need to implement as a bundle ID? In my recent project, I've been implementing a specific bundle identifier, but it doesn't support all features. In addition to this, we try another bundle identifier, they support all functionality.

I have an app, which uploaded in the AppStore (React Native app). Recently, I recreated project using new version of React Native. App working correctly, I choose bundle id from my uploaded app, but when I uploading my app to TestFlight it gives error (photo).
