I receive notifications that my developer Account will expire. But i cant add a credit card to my account. The Button leads me to appleid.apple.com where i have no option to enter card infos. Since then i have contacted the Developer Support per Email (developer[AT]email.apple.com) and got nothing back. After around two weeks i submited the Web Fomular on (https://developer.apple.com/support) where i got an case number 1 Week ago. On every support topic there is no Phone number to get a call with somebody. How do i get a credit cart in my account?

Hey there guys, Does anyone know why there are so many delays regarding Enrollment to the program as an Organization? We're waiting for Apple's call for business verification and it just won't come. We emailed them a few times waiting for any response or ETA - and got no response back. Any information would be helpful, Thanks, Asher.

Issue Description: The Get Assets VPP License Management API (both 1.0.0 & 2.0.0) should return the assets with the adamIds of Apps available in App Store. For some location tokens, from this API, we get adamIds that are not available in App Store. The contentMetaData API doesn't return any response for these adamIds and they are not B2B apps too. How can we identify if the adamIds are of the apps that are removed from App Store? Or are we missing anything here? Kindly help us with this case.

Hello everyone. We have so much trouble with Apple's validation process, although we do our best to review our copy the process is stuck. We are putting a lot of good will but we are getting rejected without any help on how to solve these problems to finally publish our app. Our app uses a Freemium model, that meens that it offers all the capabilities once the purchase IN APP is done. Companies and schools have contacted us because they would like to acquire the app but the massive deployment (in organizations) prohibits in-app purchase. So, it is NOT possible for schools and companies (with MDM fleet deployment) to subscribe to IN-APP purchases and use our product. Therefore, the only way to offer Photon to schools or businesses is to deploy a full version (without IN APP purchase) on the app store in an unregistered way, as explained in this video: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/tech-talks/10892 We did it but the App Store validation process reject the app for "spam". We followed the video to create this unlisted version dedicated to these uses. If this is not the right way to do it, do you have any idea to solve this situation ? Thank you very much for your help Clément

Issue description: In iOS 15+ devices, the enterprise apps ask for update prompt when an update for the app is deployed from MDM even when screen is locked with passcode. The app is running on foreground but the screen is locked in with passcode. Previously, in older iOS versions like iOS 12.0, the enterprise apps will not ask for update prompt when an update is distributed from MDM if screen is locked with passcode(and app running in foreground). Is this an intended behavior or a bug? Kindly help us understand this case. Steps to reproduce. Enroll a iOS (15.0+) device in a MDM. Deploy a enterprise app to device successfully. Open the app in device and lock the screen. Make sure the device has passcode for lock Deploy an update for the same app from the MDM. Expected Result: The app should be installed automatically. Actual Result: The app asks for update prompt in device.

Is it possible to create 2 enterprise accounts per DUNS?

My product is a service where the subscription gives all users of their organisation access to some functions once they have a subscription on their organisation account. Currently my customers are required to register & pay outside of the app (without mentioning it in the app, as required by the review guidelines) but now I would like to offer the possibility of subscribing within the app as well. The problem: User A starts a subscription for their organisation, and then leaves the company having forgotten about it. Now, the other users of the organisation want to upgrade or cancel their subscription. According to the documentation, there is no way for me as the service provider to cancel a subscription for an apple account - meaning that I would have to let multiple subscriptions run for the same account and hope that the user will notice and cancel it somehow. Question 1: What is the recommended way to handle this? I have e-mailed apple developer support and I was directed to this forum. Question 2: Does this business case still require me to use IAP for my subscriptions, or is there some exemption that allows me to use my own purchasing mechanism within the app or direct the users to an external one?

Issue Description: Licenses Expiring - The licenses for [app_name] and 'x' other applications will expire in 'n' days. The given App Store Notification is displayed in many iPad devices. All the apps for which the notification is shown are purchased from ABM (VPP apps). The licenses are still assigned to devices and are not revoked which is made sure from VPP API. The VPP token is also not nearing expiration and it has more than 6 months time for expiry. Screenshot of the notification is attached below Kindly help us with the reason for this behavior

In a iPad device with OS Version 15.1, when deploying a app store app through MDM, the InstallApplication command receives "License Not Found" error in response. The app is not purchased through VPP and the "PurchaseMethod" key is not set in InstallApplication request command. I have attached a sample request and response of InstallApplication commands.

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.

Hi, I need to enroll my company to Apple Developer Program. I got the DUNS number yesterday, but when I tap the Enroll button from my Apple account, it brings my to the Apple Developer Program form for individuals without asking me if I am a company. This form doesn't ask me the DUNS number, but only information about myself. I see that in every online guide they are asked if they are a company or individual but I can't get to that dropdown list. What can I do?

Hello, In our MDM, we would like to perform a nightly auto-update of all the installed apps in all the customer devices. We were wondering is there an API to query from ABM that if the particular app needs an update or not? What is the best practice to perform app auto-update? Instead of simply sending "InstallApplication" command to all the installed apps, we were wondering is there a way to check app update is available or not. Thanks, Satish

DESCRIPTION:  An iOS app - (WhatsApp Business) is not getting updated in device when update is deployed. The InstallApplication command is sent to device successfully and it is Acknowledged but the app is not updating. On analyzing the device logs in console we are getting the error- ["This installation was canceled by the user." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=User canceled., NSLocalizedDescription=This installation was canceled by the user] for the app. This is a supervised device and app was not open in foreground too. So ideally the app should update silently without any user interruption but it says that user cancelled. There is no prompt in device too. We are unable to remove and re-install the app since app data will be lost.  HOW TO REPRODUCE:  Enroll a iOS device in MDM.  Deploy a VPP App Store App using MDM to the device.  Wait for an update in App Store and then deploy the update to device of the same VPP App Store app from MDM.  EXPECTED RESULT:  The app should be updated in device.  ACTUAL RESULT:  The app is not updated in device. (Error found in device - This installation was canceled by the user] for the app) InstallApplication Command From MDM: <!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=51084000003072065</string> <key>Command</key> <dict> <key>RequestType</key> <string>InstallApplication</string> <key>iTunesStoreID</key> <integer>1386412985</integer> <key>InstallAsManaged</key> <true/> <key>ManagementFlags</key> <integer>5</integer> <key>Options</key> <dict> <key>PurchaseMethod</key> <integer>1</integer> </dict> <key>ChangeManagementState</key> <string>Managed</string> </dict> </dict> </plist> InstallApplication Response From Device <!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=51084000003072065</string> <key>Identifier</key> <string>net.whatsapp.WhatsAppSMB</string> <key>State</key> <string>Managed</string> <key>Status</key> <string>Acknowledged</string> <key>UDID</key> <string>*****</string> </dict> </plist> Kindly help us with this case.

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?

When we use Migration Assistant to transfer data from one machine to another or when restoring a backup, it breaks the MDM enrollment. Upon checking, we found that as the Identity Certificate in the KeyChain isn't available, the MDM agent is unable to initiate the communication. Is there any way to avoid behavior like this? Thanks in Advance.

Hello, I would like to know what options we have for premium-codes within the B2B area. How can we (under App-Store regulations) work together with companys to give out Corporate Logins for their employees? So if we work with a company together, the company can give their employees free access to the app. Is here a "standard way" of doing so? Thank you very much Hannah

Hello everyone, I have been reading forums lately, and found out that Apple Developer Enterprise Program users are having problem in renewing their accounts. Our company is using the same program as well and we are thinking if what would be the best program to use when we were not able to renew the license for the Enterprise program. We currently have 100+ Employees we are only distributing one app which is being used by 280+ customers and the app is currently installed in more or less 3000 devices. Looking forward for everyone's recommendation and reply. Thanks!

We previously have an Enterprise account subscription which we use to provide an app for a private client. The app is custom to our internal business, and used by more than 1000 agents. Our subscription is rejected due to: "Our records show that your organization has less than 100 employees. Because this program is designed for organizations with 100 or more employees" With this we don't have any license to distribute the private app. We cant see that Business Manager can help because it is hard to distribute among this private users. This is very frustrating as we are in the midst of ongoing event that are solely dependant to the app.
