I want to side load a .ipa file from a Mac to iPhone connected to Mac via USB. I don't want to use ABM or enterprise account. Also these can be any number of unknown devices. Is there any way to set this up automatically?

Context I created a short script to CPU profile a program from the command line. I am able to record via the Instruments app, but when I try from the command line I get the following error shown below. This example is just profiling the grep command. Error: % cpu_profile /usr/bin/grep \ --recursive "Brendan Gregg" \ "$(xcode-select --print-path)/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk" Profiling /usr/bin/grep into /tmp/cpu_profile_grep.trace Starting recording with the CPU Profiler template. Launching process: grep. Ctrl-C to stop the recording Run issues were detected (trace is still ready to be viewed): * [Error] Failed to start the recording: Failed to force all hardware CPU counters: 13. Recording failed with errors. Saving output file...

System Chip: Apple M3 Pro macOS: Sequoia 15.4.1 xctrace version: 16.0 (16E140) xcrun version: 70. Xcode version: 16.3 (16E140) Working Screenshots from Instruments App:

Getting the following error from AppStore Connect ITMS-90109: This bundle is invalid - The key UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities in the Info.plist may not contain values that would prevent this application from running on devices that were supported by previous versions. Refer to QA1623 for additional information: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1623/_index.html We haven't changed the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities value since our last production build. I've verified that by downloading the prior release and comparing the bundled info plist - the value we had arm64, remains the same. Is anyone else seeing this issue all of a sudden?

It would be nice for Apple to integrate chatgpt, Open AI, and create their own artificial intelligence. Siri is not equipped to answer questions that AI can. With increasing AI prevalence and usability, Apple is behind. Message to Apple: PLEASE UTILIZE AI TO MAKE APPLE THE BEST PLATFORM.

Attempting to launch a widget in Debug mode on Sonoma from Xcode 15 is failing with the following message: attach failed (Not allowed to attach to process. Look in the console messages (Console.app), near the debugserver entries, when the attach failed. The subsystem that denied the attach permission will likely have logged an informative message about why it was denied.) Looking in console I see this message: macOSTaskPolicy: (com.apple.debugserver) may not get the task control port of (MacGalleryWidget) (pid: 1851): (MacGalleryWidget) is hardened, (MacGalleryWidget) doesn't have get-task-allow, (com.apple.debugserver) is a declared debugger(com.apple.debugserver) is not a declared read-only debugger What Xcode settings should I be looking at to rectify this? I suspect I may have something that's out of whack.

Hello, In our application, we have implemented an app extension to allow users to open the main app directly from the share activity window. To achieve this, we used the openURL(:) method from the NSExtensionContext class, as documented here: openURL(:). However, we received one post from Apple stating that opening the main app directly is typically only supported in extensions such as Today widgets or iMessage apps. They also mentioned that this approach may require an additional review during the App Store submission process. Link: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsextensioncontext/1416791-openurl Could someone clarify: If using openURL(_:) in a share extension to open the main app would lead to potential issues during App Store submission? Are there specific guidelines or alternative approaches we should follow to ensure compliance? Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

So I use two MacBooks for work and different levels of projects, updated MacBook 1, and I was about to download and install Predictive Code Completion Model and IOS 18.4 Runtime. But doing the same for my second MacBook isn't working... I've been searching for days now, and the deadline for submission is fast approaching. I need help on this.

(Copy pasted from FB17261080 that I submitted) Hi: Apple's SDK (libSystem.B.tbd) provides definition for multiple symbols(__unw_add_dynamic_fde / __unw_add_find_dynamic_unwind_sections ), but doesn't provide corresponding headers, available in LLVM upstream as libunwind_ext.h We need such headers to write Exception-Enabled JIT Framework for macOS

Hi Apple Developer Team, I’m a developer based in South Africa. I initially submitted my enrollment for the Apple Developer Program (Individual) last week Thursday (May 2nd, 2025). The enrollment was then withdrawn by Apple, asking me to re-apply - which I did. Unfortunately, the same issue persists. I entered valid payment details during the re-application. No payment has been deducted. The enroll button on the Apple Developer app remains disabled. It has now been 5 days without resolution. We’ve even gone to the extent of verifying our banking setup and confirming that our card is enabled for international payments. Out of frustration, I have now withdrawn all enrollment applications. Please advise on how I can proceed based on the Case ID I have submitted. This delay is affecting our iOS launch, and I would really appreciate guidance on the way forward. Thank you.

I developed (with AI help) using Xcode an app for myself. It logged certain places visited on a list, with photos and notes. It worked, but after a few days my iPhone can't launch it. What do I have to do to get this to last? I didn't think I needed to pay as this is purely for me.

I've got a 2019 Intel iMac running Sequoia 15.4.1 and Xcode 16.3. Every time I try to view a storyboard Xcode locks up and beachballs on me. It takes minutes to load the file. When I force-quit Xcode, the report that shows up has this as the reason: Processes reached dispatch thread soft limit (64): launchd_sim [96305] [unique pid 194673], launchd_sim [96260] [unique pid 194628] Deadlock: AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df0c4 DispatchQueue 313 -> AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df0c4 DispatchQueue 313 Deadlock: AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df114 DispatchQueue 86 -> AppleSpell [1494] thread 0x1df114 DispatchQueue 86 Blocked by Deadlock: 1 task - AppleSpell [1494] I'm wondering, why is AppleSpell trying to spell-check a plist file? Is there any way to tell AppleSpell to ignore a file?

When testing my development build for gamecenter authentication, the game crashes. I've breadcrumbed it to the "await GKLocalPlayer.Authenticate();" call. Can't find any documentation on this issue and have been looking through the forums! I've already done all of the usual stuff like verifying bundle identifiers match, ensuring game center is enabled for the app, setting up app store connect, using a sandbox account, etc... Please point me to some resources if you know any. Any help is appreciated, I'm starting to lose hope here!

I'm trying to use the App Store Connect API to get the list of expired certificates. When I make the web service call: https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/certificates I'm able to get the list of developer certificate. The distribution certificates are not included in the list. According to the docs, I should all of them in the result set. Is there any thing special that needs to be added the web service call to have the distribution certs included in the result set?

Hello, I currently have a live application in the iOS App Store that needs an update to start functioning again, but I've lost the source code in a hard drive failure. Is there a way to reverse engineer the currently deployed package that is live (and also a way to download it from App Store Connect)⁉️ The development change itself is just a very small change for an API route in the code itself. I could even direct an engineer at Apple to make the change in 5 minutes! Let me know if this is possible. Thanks❗️

Currently, over the xcode environment to do the testing of product subscriptions through appstore are working correctly using the storeKit. When deployed in testflight to do the testing over the integration environment, the store response times are being excessively high, in excess of 20 minutes. This behavior is not replicated on Xcode, and is happening on recent versions uploaded to testflight, as earlier versions that were already tested and are currently in production. In addition the communication between the appstore webhook and the BE is also failing in this environment. It is being blocked to generate any test to be able to launch to production.

I am creating an xcframework for a static library for iOS, but I am encountering a perplexing issue with Xcode 16.3. When I build an xcframework using C++ in one project and import it into another project, the application runs with corrupted memory. In the framework project, I use os_unfair_lock, but when attempting to lock, the app crashes due to a state error. This suggests that memory corruption is occurring. When the xcframework is built with Xcode 16.2, a proper binary is generated, and the app runs without any problems. Since I do not want to disclose the source code, I am trying to construct a minimal project that reproduces the issue, but so far I have not been successful. Fundamentally, I feel that the compiler in Xcode 16.3 cannot be trusted.

I'm using Xcode 16.3 and I want to add the key "NSUbiquitousContainers" but I cannot do it in the Entitlements file, it should be in info.plist file! I have done it before but in previous versions of Xcode when the info.plist was in the project navigator. However, now I cannot find the file and I did not find any way to create it! Please guide me in detail how to proceed (I'm not new to Swift or SwiftUI but not familiar to project settings)?

I can't create any breakpoint in my Xcode after I upgraded to macOS 15.4 macOS: Version 15.4 (24E248) visionOS Simulator: 2.3 Xcode: Version 16.2 (16C5032a) My app works well without any breakpoints.
