Issue: When installing a non VPP app store app in iOS device through MDM, the error - "This Apple ID cannot be used to make purchases" is displayed in the device. But the InstallApplication command response from the device doesn't show any error in it. The response just shows the status as "Installing" and the "ManagedApplicationList" command response shows the device shows the app in "Installing" state. It will be helpful on MDM side if the InstallApplication or ManagedApplicationList command response shows an error. Is it possible? InstallApplication response: <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>CommandUUID</key> <string>InstallApplication;Collection=xxxx</string> <key>Identifier</key> <string>com.zuletteran.scannerfree</string> <key>State</key> <string>Prompting</string> <key>Status</key> <string>Acknowledged</string> <key>UDID</key> <string>xxxx</string> </dict> </plist> ManagedApplicationList response: <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>CommandUUID</key> <string>ManagedApplicationList</string> <key>ManagedApplicationList</key> <dict> <key>com.zuletteran.scannerfree</key> <dict> <key>ExternalVersionIdentifier</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>HasConfiguration</key> <false/> <key>HasFeedback</key> <false/> <key>IsValidated</key> <false/> <key>ManagementFlags</key> <integer>5</integer> <key>Status</key> <string>Installing</string> </dict> </dict> <key>Status</key> <string>Acknowledged</string> <key>UDID</key> <string>xxxx</string> </dict> </plist>

Can we distribute Version 1 to Organization ID A and Version 2 to Organization ID B under ABM? Is it possible? Or do I have to submit them as 2 different Bundle IDs under ABM?

I'm a volunteer iOS programmer for a local church. I developed a giving kiosk app for them that works perfectly for their needs. I installed the app directly on their iPads from my laptop. The problem is that it seems like the app "times out" and will refuse to launch. I'm not sure how often, after 6 months? 12 months? I bring in my laptop, reinstall the app and it's good for another 6-12 months. Does it do that because the app is not published in the App Store? Is there any way to prohibit that behavior? Enrolling in the Enterprise Program is WAAAY overkill, since it's just a local church with a free non-profit developer account and it's just one app installed on 3 iPads. I thought TestFlight might be a solution, but as I understand it, that would force me to publish an update every 3 months. That's even worse than the current situation. Any suggestions?

Can an Enterprise Apple ID be associated with more than 16 AirTags? We're looking to use AirTags to manage a fleet of Mountain Bikes (and other equipment if successful), but having 16 to an account is cumbersome when the fleet exceeds one hundred.

Dear all, Our company makes A.I Camera equipment and we sell that hardware. Our users pay a fee for the use of the Cloud video history storage function uploaded by that device and pay for the use of some of the device's extended features. In this case, can I use another payment method in our country other than IAP? I would like to create a payment screen to let user choose which payment method they want, or using one of my country's payment gateway. I have read this article https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#payments section 3.1.4 Hardware-Specific Content, but not sure is it correct. Is this valid and consistent with Apple policy? Thank you.

Is there a way to push multiple apps in a single request using "InstallApplication" command via MDM? The request seems to take only one app at a time. We are an MDM platform vendor and hoping to deploy all the licenses-assigned apps during the initial device enrollment time. Any sample list request snippet would be helpful.

We are pushing a HomeScreenlayout payload with no "docks" array . The behaviour in iOS's is the dock at the bottom is disappeared. But in ipadOS's , dock is still at the bottom with recent apps listed there. Attached is Screenshot for the ipad's behaviour .

We are a government organization. There is a need to distribute a custom app. So we are trying to register for Apple Business Manager. But enrollment is showing error that 'D-U-S-N' number is required. And on apple developer website it has written D-U-S-N number is optional for Government organization. How can we proceed without D-U-S-N Number?

I can use /usr/bin/security to install a root CA, and to delete it (based on the file)... but how do I check to see if it's installed already? Surely there is a way to do this, other than security find-certificate -a | fgrep my.ca.name? Ideally from the shell level, but if I have to write a program I can (in which case I believe it'd be a relatively easy, albeit annoying because I hate writing certificate code, task)...

Hello, we successfully uploaded a safari extension to the app store which was approved and shows ready for sale. We want it to be private, only for our organization and we selected the organization in the Pricing and Availability section. We also selected all countries and regions. We tried to download the extension from several locations: Bulgaria, Us, China but on all of them we are getting "App Not Available in your country or region." Could you please help on what we are missing? Thanks

Hi , Does a MacOS Apple client support GRE tunnel? if so, can you pls share some pointers? Appreciate your quick response. Thank you Vetri S

We are facing issues in VPP Client Configuration API ( POST: https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/VPPClientConfigSrv ). For some VPP token, the "clientContext" key in the response says "token being used in v2" instead of giving a proper clientContext. These VPP tokens aren't actually added in any other MDM than ours. But it gives this as response. Also, we didn't use the new API for setting VPP Client Configuration too. We are seeing this issue for some VPP tokens in random. We would like to understand this behaviour in VPP tokens.

I am using calculator to hide functionality of application, But apple review team is not approving that with the reason 2.3.1 Performance: Accurate Metadata. When I checked app store there is multiple apps available which are using calculator hide data. If app store terms and condition does not allow this, Then why are there so many apps available? Please suggest me the way

Hi, We are making a marketing web app. There is a need to get business details on Apple Maps. Is there an API we can use? Thanks

Hi, I'm trying to validate device token generated on app which is signed by Enterprise account. I generate deviceToken on device I send the token to our backend Our backend creates JWT token The backend calls validate_device_token endpoint and receives 401 The authentication token can't be verified I've seen many implementations on the internet and I'm pretty sure that we generate the token in correct way. (eg implementation: https://github.com/marinosoftware/DeviceCheckSample) The Questions are: Is it possible to use DeviceCheck on Enterprise Account ? There is no possibility to enable DeviceCheck on Enterprise account is APNs key configuration: https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/authkeys/list. Is this configuration required ? Is there is a way to validate signature of JWT token locally ? Services such as https://jwt.io requires Public and Private keys in correct format, I didn't find a way to validate the signature signed by p8 certificate without any additional keys.

It has been three months since the application was made. I have tried both by email and phone. The reply is Ren, and the account registration is under review.
