Hi guys, Can I use CMIO to achieve the following feature on macOS when a USB device (Camera/Mic/Speaker) is connected: When a third-party video conferencing app is not in a meeting, ensure the app defaults to using the USB device (Camera/Mic/Speaker). When a third-party conferencing app is in a meeting, ensure the app automatically switches to the USB device (Camera/Mic/Speaker).

In macOS 26 beta 2 it is possible to set an edge effect style via UIKit using the .scrollEdgeEffectStyle property. (note: I haven't tested this, I'm just looking at the documentation). See: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/view/scrolledgeeffectstyle(_:for:) Is there an equivalent API for AppKit-based apps? I can't seem to find any additions in NSView or NSScrollView or elsewhere that seem relevant. Scroll edge effects are mentioned in the "Build an AppKit app with the new design" talk here, which heavily implies it must be possible from AppKit: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/310/?time=567

According the video "Build an AppKit app with the new design" (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/310/), it is now possible to add a badge on a NSToolbarItem object. However, in don't see a badge in the NSToolbar API. The code example in the video includes for example "NSItemBadge.count(4)", but the only Google result for this is the video mentioned above. Is this still work in progress or I'm overlooking something?

We have a Java application built for macOS. On the first launch, the application prompts the user to allow local network access. We've correctly added the NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription key to the Info.plist, and the provided description appears in the system prompt. After the user grants permission, the application can successfully connect to a local server using its hostname. However, the issue arises after the system is rebooted. When the application is launched again, macOS does not prompt for local network access a second time—which is expected, as the permission was already granted. Despite this, the application is unable to connect to the local server. It appears the previously granted permission is being ignored after a reboot. A temporary workaround is to manually toggle the Local Network permission off and back on via System Settings > Privacy & Security, which restores connectivity—until the next reboot. This behavior is highly disruptive, both for us and for a significant number of our users. We can reproduce this on multiple systems... The issues started from macOS Sequoia 15.0 By opening the application bundle using "Show Package Contents," we can launch the application via "JavaAppLauncher" without any issues. Once started, the application is able to connect to our server over the local network. This seems to bypass the granted permissions? "JavaAppLauncher" is also been used in our Info.plist file

I’ll preface this by saying I’ve submitted a DTS ticket with essentially this exact text, but I thought I’d also post about it here to get some additional input. Apple engineers: the case ID is 14698374, for your reference. I have an observable class, called NavigationModel, that powers navigation in my SwiftUI app. It has one important property, navigationSelection, that stores the currently selected view. This property is passed to a List in the sidebar column of a NavigationSplitView with two columns. The list has NavigationLinks that accept that selection as a value parameter. When a NavigationLink is tapped, the detail column shows the appropriate detail view per the navigationSelection property’s current value via a switch statement. (This navigationSelection stores an enum value.) This setup allows for complete programmatic navigation as that selection is effectively global. From anywhere in the app — any button, command, or app intent — the selection can be modified since the NavigationModel class uses the @Observable Swift macro. In the app’s root file, an instance of the NavigationModel is created, added as an app intent dependency, and assigned (might be the wrong verb here, but you get it) to ContentView, which houses the NavigationSplitView code. The problem lies when more than one window is opened. Because this is all just one instance of NavigationModel — initialized in the app’s root file — the navigation selection is shared across windows. That is, there is no way for one window to show a view and another to show another view — they’re bound to the same instance of NavigationModel. Again, this was done so that app intents and menu bar commands can modify the navigation selection, but this causes unintended behavior. I checked Apple’s sample projects, namely the “Accelerating app interactions with App Intents” (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/acceleratingappinteractionswithappintents) and “Adopting App Intents to support system experiences” (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/adopting-app-intents-to-support-system-experiences) projects, to see how Apple recommends handling this case. Both of these projects have intents to display a view by modifying the navigation selection. They also have the same unintended behavior I’m experiencing in my app. If two windows are open, they share the navigation selection. I feel pretty stupid asking for help with this, but I’ve tried a lot to get it to work the way I want it to. My first instinct was to create a new instance of NavigationModel for each window, and that’s about 90% of the way there, but app intents fail when there are no open windows because there are no instances of NavigationModel to modify. I also tried playing with FocusedValue and SceneStorage, but those solutions also didn’t play well with app intents and added too much convoluted code for what should be a simple issue. In total, what I want is: A window/scene-specific navigation selection property that works across TabViews and NavigationSplitViews A way to reliably modify that property’s value across the app for the currently focused window A way to set a value as a default, so when the app launches with a window, it automatically selects a value in the detail column The navigation selection to reset across app and window launches, restoring the default selection Does anyone know how to do this? I’ve scoured the internet, but again, no dice. Usually Apple’s sample projects are great with this sort of thing, but all of their projects that have scene-specific navigation selection with NavigationSplitView don’t have app intents. 🤷‍♂️ If anyone needs additional code samples, I’d be happy to provide them, but it’s basically a close copy of Apple’s own sample code found in those two links.

Is there a SwiftUI version of NSControl.allowsExpansionToolTips? That is, showing a tool tip with the full text when (and only when) a text item is truncated? Or do I need to use a hosting view to get that behavior?

[Q] How many instances of the same NEFilterDataProvider subclass can there be in a single running Network Extension at any given time? I would expect that there can be only 1 instance but I'm looking at a memgraph where 2 instances are listed. As it's the Network Extension framework that is responsible for creating, starting and stopping these instances, this is rather strange.

Logic Pro recently changed the way it accepts drag and drop. If the ItemProvider contains UTType.midi, then Logic Pro shows visual feedback for the drop operation, but when the item is dropped, nothing happens. In the past, drag-and-drop used to work. With today's version (Logic Pro 11.2), the only way I was able to successfully drop MIDI was to provide UTType.fileURL and no other data types. But that's not a viable solution; I need other data types to be included too. As a side note, I tested with Ableton Live 12 and it works with no issue. Is this a bug in Logic Pro? What ItemProvider structure does Logic Pro expect to correctly receive the MIDI data?

Hi everyone! I've considered this — what if Apple added a native system-wide feature in all of iOS, iPadOS, and macOS called “CrossRun” where you can natively execute non-App Store software like Windows or Linux apps natively on your device? But not in a sluggish emulator—this would use intelligent Apple-signed Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation inside the virtual containers, and the experience would actually perform fast and feel natural. This is my vision for CrossRun: Every developer, student, creative professional, and enterprise user who relies on specialized software—whether it’s legacy Windows tools, Linux-only applications, or vintage DOS and Classic Mac utilities—feels the pain of platform lock‑in. Artists can’t run niche Linux‑based graphics programs on their iPads. Engineers can’t test x64‑only binaries on Apple Silicon without juggling emulators. Retro‑gaming fans miss their favorite DOS titles. Even enterprises struggle to standardize on Apple hardware because critical Windows‑only applications won’t run seamlessly. If we don’t push for CrossRun now, the Apple ecosystem remains siloed: iPads and iPhones will continue limited to App Store apps, Macs will still need multiple third‑party VM tools, and countless workflows stay fragmented across devices. That means slower development cycles, extra licensing costs for virtualization software, and lost opportunities for education, creativity, and business efficiency. Without CrossRun’s universal runtime, we’ll still be rebooting into different environments or paying for separate virtualization apps—year after year. Apple already provides the building blocks: Rosetta 2, Virtualization.framework, Apple Silicon—and QEMU thrives as open‑source, battle‑tested code. With the next wave of Apple Silicon devices on the horizon, demand for cross‑architecture support, legacy‑app compatibility, and enterprise containerization is only growing. Delaying another year will cost developers, businesses, and users real time and money. Let’s show Apple that the community is ready for a truly universal, system‑integrated solution—right now. Key features we should demand in CrossRun: Built‑in Apple‑signed QEMU for all ISAs (x86, ARM, RISC‑V, PowerPC, 68k, MIPS, etc.) Rosetta 2 JIT for seamless macOS and Windows x64 support Metal‑backed 3D GPU passthrough and Vulkan→Metal / Direct3D→Metal translation Downloadable OS and app containers via the App Store or verified repositories (Ubuntu, Windows ARM/x64, Android, Haiku, ReactOS, FreeBSD, retro OSes) Predictive ML pre‑warm cache to speed cold starts Dynamic resource scaling (CPU, GPU, RAM) per container iCloud‑synced snapshots and shareable VM links for cross‑device continuity Customizable on‑screen controls (D‑pad, virtual buttons, trackpad, keyboard) on iPhone, iPad, and macOS Secure sandboxing via Virtualization.framework with VM disk encryption and MDM policy enforcement Virtual LAN and VPN passthrough for container networking Developer tooling (crossrunctl CLI, Xcode debugger integration, CI/CD support) Plugin ecosystem and container SDK for community‑published templates and translation layers Let Apple know it’s time to bake CrossRun into the system and unlock a universal runtime for every app, past and future, across iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.

I just installed macOS Tahoe beta on a mac mini. It says I am not connected to the internet, and attempts to use file sharing fail. Network status says that Ethernet and WiFi are working. Any suggestions?

The objective C code using the kernel API ‘sysctlbyname’ for ‘kern.osproductversion’ returns 16.0 instead of 26.0 on macOS Tahoe. sysctlbyname("kern.osproductversion", version, &size, NULL, 0) The command ‘sysctl kern.osproductversion’ returns ‘kern.osproductversion: 26.0’ on same macOS Tahoe. Note: The objective C code was built using Xcode 16.3.

I found the Table with Toggle will have performance issue when the data is large. I can reproduce it in Apple demo: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/building_a_great_mac_app_with_swiftui Replace with a large mock data, for example database.json Try to scroll the table, it's not smooth. I found if I delete the Toggle, the performance be good. TableColumn("Favorite", value: \.favorite, comparator: BoolComparator()) { plant in Toggle("Favorite", isOn: $garden[plant.id].favorite) .labelsHidden() } Is this bug in SwiftUI? Any workaround? My Mac is Intel, not sure it can repro on Apple Silicon

Hello, I have a command line application that uses iTunesLibrary to "save" the state of what I have listened to. I have it run every night via a LaunchAgent. You can see the source here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json Prior to Sequoia it would run nightly. I'd just have to grant it access to the Music library once, and it would be fine thereafter. However with Sequoia it requires UI interaction to grant it access every time. This makes it no longer run unattended overnight, defeating its purpose. I have the console logs of when this happens. You can see it in my issue tracking it here: https://github.com/bolsinga/itunes_json/issues/410 One thing that makes me wonder is that it is a command line application, not a bundle. How do I make a command line application get access to MusicKit / iTunesLibrary, and keep it thereafter? I'd like to get my pre-Sequoia behavior back. I've filed FB15592660 too. I've granted it access to run in the background, as well as access to my Music library (please see attached screenshots).

Im new in the Mac area but for sure not UE. Windows is a long process to packaging but it could be done. All the documentation for Epic and from the internet is basically non existent with exactly how to package a project within UE.

Under macOS 26 and iPadOS, the Help menu in many cases has a menu item for "App Help". This item has the following icon: I need to use this in my own app. I am unable to find this icon in SF Symbols 7 beta. I've scanned all of the icons under "What's New". I've searched for "help", "light", and "bulb" and this icon does not appear. Does anyone know if it's even a new SF Symbol? Or does anyone know of a way to use this icon?

Hello! I'm facing a strange behavior on macOS related to Ask Each Time, which works fine on iOS. I've an App Intent that declares a parameter like so: @Parameter( title: "Tags", description: "Tags to add to the link.", optionsProvider: TagsOptionsProvider() ) var tags: [String]? The TagsOptionProvider is like this: struct TagsOptionsProvider: DynamicOptionsProvider { @Dependency private var modelCoordinator: ModelCoordinator @MainActor func results() async throws -> [String] { return modelCoordinator.tags().compactMap { $0.name } } } Now, the issue comes if I create a shortcut where for the tags parameter the user selects the magic variable Ask Each Time. On iOS, when the user is presented with the selector, they can simply tap 'Done' without selecting any value (the user does not want to include any tag). The problem is that on macOS the 'Done' button is disabled if there's no selection. See both behaviors: iOS: macOS: Question: Is there a way to let macOS continue even if the user doesn't select any of the available options like on iOS? I've tried declaring the tags para meter as Optional (like on the screenshot) and non-optional, both cases show the same behavior. Environment: iOS 18.5 macOS 15.5

I'm trying to make an FSKit module for NTFS read-write filesystem and at the stage where everything is more or less working fine as long as I mount the volume via mount -F and that volume is a RAM disk. However, since the default NTFS read-only driver is already present in macOS, this introduces an additional challenge. Judging by the DiskArbitration sources, it looks like all FSKit modules are allowed to probe anything only after all kext modules. So, in this situation, any third-party NTFS FSKit module is effectively blocked from using DiskArbitration mechanisms at all because it's always masked during the probing by the system's read-only kext. This leaves mount -F as the only means to mount the NTFS volume via FSKit. However, even that doesn't work for volumes on real (non-RAM) disks due to permission issues. The logs in Console.app hint that the FSKit extension is running; however, it looks like the fskitd itself doesn't have permissions to access real disks if it's initiated from the mount utility? default 16:42:41.939498+0200 fskitd New module list <private> default 16:42:41.939531+0200 fskitd Old modules (null) default 16:42:41.939578+0200 fskitd Added 2 identifiers: <private> default 16:42:41.939651+0200 fskitd [0x7fc58020bf00] activating connection: mach=true listener=true peer=false name=com.apple.filesystems.fskitd debug 16:42:41.939768+0200 fskitd main:RunLoopRun debug 16:42:41.939811+0200 fskitd -[liveFilesMountServiceDelegate listener:shouldAcceptNewConnection:]: start default 16:42:41.939870+0200 fskitd Incomming connection, entitled 0 debug 16:42:41.940021+0200 fskitd -[liveFilesMountServiceDelegate listener:shouldAcceptNewConnection:]: accepting connection default 16:42:41.940048+0200 fskitd [0x7fc580006120] activating connection: mach=false listener=false peer=true name=com.apple.filesystems.fskitd.peer[1816].0x7fc580006120 default 16:42:41.940325+0200 fskitd Hello FSClient! entitlement no default 16:42:41.940977+0200 fskitd About to get current agent for 503 default 16:42:41.941104+0200 fskitd [0x7fc580015480] activating connection: mach=true listener=false peer=false name=com.apple.fskit.fskit_agent info 16:42:41.941227+0200 fskitd About to call to fskit_agent debug 16:42:42.004630+0200 fskitd -[fskitdAgentManager currentExtensionForShortName:auditToken:replyHandler:]_block_invoke: Found extension for fsShortName (<private>) info 16:42:42.005409+0200 fskitd Probe starting on <private> debug 16:42:42.005480+0200 fskitd -[FSResourceManager getResourceState:]:not_found:<private> debug 16:42:42.005528+0200 fskitd -[FSResourceManager addTaskUUID:resource:]:<private>: Adding task (<private>) debug 16:42:42.005583+0200 fskitd applyResource starting with resource <private> kind 1 default 16:42:42.005609+0200 fskitd About to get current agent for 503 info 16:42:42.005629+0200 fskitd About to call to fskit_agent debug 16:42:42.006700+0200 fskitd -[fskitdXPCServer getExtensionModuleFromID:forToken:]_block_invoke: Found extension <private>, attrs <private> default 16:42:42.006829+0200 fskitd About to get current agent for 503 info 16:42:42.006858+0200 fskitd About to call to fskit_agent, bundle ID <private>, instanceUUID <private> default 16:42:42.070923+0200 fskitd About to grab assertion on pid 1820 default 16:42:42.071058+0200 fskitd Initializing connection default 16:42:42.071141+0200 fskitd Removing all cached process handles default 16:42:42.071185+0200 fskitd Sending handshake request attempt #1 to server default 16:42:42.071223+0200 fskitd Creating connection to com.apple.runningboard info 16:42:42.071224+0200 fskitd Acquiring assertion: <RBSAssertionDescriptor| "com.apple.extension.session" ID:(null) target:1820> default 16:42:42.071258+0200 fskitd [0x7fc58001cdc0] activating connection: mach=true listener=false peer=false name=com.apple.runningboard default 16:42:42.075617+0200 fskitd Handshake succeeded default 16:42:42.075660+0200 fskitd Identity resolved as osservice<com.apple.filesystems.fskitd> debug 16:42:42.076337+0200 fskitd Adding assertion 183-1817-1669 to dictionary debug 16:42:42.076385+0200 fskitd +[FSBlockDeviceResource(Project) openWithBSDName:writable:auditToken:replyHandler:]:bsdName:<private> default 16:42:42.076457+0200 fskitd [0x7fc5801092e0] activating connection: mach=true listener=false peer=false name=com.apple.fskit.fskit_helper default 16:42:42.077706+0200 fskitd +[FSBlockDeviceResource(Project) openWithBSDName:writable:auditToken:replyHandler:]_block_invoke: Open device returned error Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 info 16:42:42.077760+0200 fskitd +[FSBlockDeviceResource(Project) openWithBSDName:writable:auditToken:replyHandler:]: failed to open device <private>, Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 default 16:42:42.077805+0200 fskitd [0x7fc5801092e0] invalidated because the current process cancelled the connection by calling xpc_connection_cancel() debug 16:42:42.077830+0200 fskitd +[FSBlockDeviceResource(Project) openWithBSDName:writable:auditToken:replyHandler:]:end info 16:42:42.078459+0200 fskitd openWith returned err Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 dev (null) error 16:42:42.078501+0200 fskitd -[fskitdXPCServer getRealResource:auditToken:reply:]: Unable to convert proxy FSBlockDeviceResource into open resource error 16:42:42.078538+0200 fskitd -[fskitdXPCServer applyResource:targetBundle:instanceID:initiatorAuditToken:authorizingAuditToken:isProbe:usingBlock:]: Can't get the real resource of <private> default 16:42:42.105443+0200 fskitd [0x7fc580006120] invalidated because the client process (pid 1816) either cancelled the connection or exited The mount utility call I use is the same for RAM and real disks with the only difference being the device argument and this permission error is only relevant for real disks case. So, the proper solution (using DiskArbitration) seems to be blocked architecturally in this use case due to FSKit modules being relegated to the fallback role. Is this subject to change in the future? The remaining workaround with using the mount directly doesn't work for unclear reasons. Is that permission error a bug? Or am I missing something?

Say I have a UI element that moves on the screen. Is it possible to update its accessibility frame as it moves while VoiceOver is focused on it? From my tests, VoiceOver ignores UIAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification if it's sent repeatedly in a short period of time on iOS, while sending NSAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification on macOS triggers VoiceOver to reannounce the focused element repeatedly.

While it is possible to scroll content using VoiceOver on macOS, I was not able to find any NSAccessibility APIs related to it (such as accessibilityScroll: on iOS).

Since updating my MacBook Air to macOS Tahoe 26.0 Developer Beta 2, I’ve encountered a persistent cursor misalignment issue: When interacting with lists or contextual menus, the cursor’s visual position does not align with what it actually selects. The system registers the cursor slightly above where it appears, causing clicks to select the wrong option or fail to register. As a temporary workaround, I can sometimes position the cursor off-target and press Enter to select, but this is a frustrating and inefficient workaround. The issue persists after a restart and appears across multiple areas of the OS: Right-clicking an app in the Dock to open the contextual menu → cursor highlights an incorrect item relative to its position. In System Settings menus. Even on the Feedback Assistant site when selecting issue categories. Steps to Reproduce: 1️⃣ Update to macOS Tahoe 26.0 Developer Beta 2 on MacBook Air. 2️⃣ Right-click on any open application in the Dock. 3️⃣ Attempt to select an option from the list that appears. 4️⃣ Observe that the cursor highlights or interacts with a different option than where the cursor is visibly located. Notes: Issue is consistent across reboots. Affects workflow and general navigation. Temporary workaround using keyboard navigation is insufficient for productivity.
