I have a .NET 6 application that runs in the background. The installer is a .pkg file built using a third-party tool called "Packages". All .dylib and executable files are codesigned before packaging. The resulting .pkg file is notarized. The app uses these entitlements: com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation The app is built on a macbook Air 2015 running macOS 12.6 and it works without issues on that machine. On a macbook Pro M3 running macOS 14.6.1 the app fails to run even though the installation itself is successful. The only logs that I was able to find are related to syspolicyd (4 warnings): Unable to apply protection to app: 45, PST: (vuid: A78FF6C2-08D5-4DCC-B946-8836251AA0E7), (objid: 1873967), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)) Failed to register app bundle for protection: 45, PST: (vuid: A78FF6C2-08D5-4DCC-B946-8836251AA0E7), (objid: 1873967), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)) scan failed, finishing evaluation : PST: (vuid: A78FF6C2-08D5-4DCC-B946-8836251AA0E7), (objid: 1873967), (team: (null)), (id: (null)), (bundle_id: (null)) Terminating process due to Gatekeeper rejection: 95158, Unfortunately, verification commands such as sudo codesign --verify --deep --strict -vvv MyApplication.App spctl -a -vvv -t install MyApplicationInstaller.pkg do not indicate any issues. Are there any additional steps that need to be performed in order for my app to work properly on newer machines?

Hi. I am developing a custom virtual file system and facing such behaviour: Upon using some graphical apps, for example Adobe Media Encoder, attempting to navigate inside my filesystem deeper than root folder will fail - nothing will happen on "double click" on that subfolder. Another problem, is that whether I try to re-navigate into root directory, it will be empty. The problem is not present for most GUI apps - for example navigation inside Finder, upon choosing download path for file in Safari, apps like Microsoft Word, Excel and other range of applications work totally correctly. A quick note here. From what I have seen - all apps that work correctly actually have calls to VFS_VGET - a predefined vfs layer hook. Whether the Adobe Media Encoder does not call for it - neither in my filesystem, nor in Samba, so my guess is that some applications have different browsing and retrieving algorithm. Is there anything I should examine further ? Default routines (vnop_open, vnop_lookup, vnop_readdir, vnop_close) behave as expected, without any errors. P.S. This application (Adobe Media Encoder) works properly on Samba.

Currently I came across an issue in mac catalyst project. All the buttons in my project are not visible, they are in their actual positions and also clickable and performing their tasks as assigned but they are not visible. When Iam doing: crossButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "CrossComMac"), for: .normal) Button does not contain image While in the below code, image is visible but Iam not able to resize it. crossButton.imageView?.image = UIImage(named: "CrossComMac") Also title of the button is not visible too. Anything related to button in my mac catalyst project is not visible. Main issue: Button's image is visible in Xcode running project Button's image is not visible in build project...(funny thing right)

I'm trying to create a List that allows multiple selection. Each row can be edited but the issue is that since there's a tap gesture on the Text element, the list is unable to select the item. Here's some code: import SwiftUI struct Person: Identifiable { let id: UUID let name: String init(_ name: String) { self.id = UUID() self.name = name } } struct ContentView: View { @State private var persons = [Person("Peter"), Person("Jack"), Person("Sophia"), Person("Helen")] @State private var selectedPersons = Set<Person.ID>() var body: some View { VStack { List(selection: $selectedPersons) { ForEach(persons) { person in PersonView(person: person, selection: $selectedPersons) { newValue in // ... } } } } .padding() } } struct PersonView: View { var person: Person @Binding var selection: Set<Person.ID> var onCommit: (String) -> Void = { newValue in } @State private var isEditing = false @State private var newValue = "" @FocusState private var isInputActive: Bool var body: some View { if isEditing { TextField("", text: $newValue, onCommit: { onCommit(newValue) isEditing = false }) .focused($isInputActive) .labelsHidden() } else { Text(person.name) .onTapGesture { if selection.contains(person.id), selection.count == 1 { newValue = person.name isEditing = true isInputActive = true } } } } } Right now, you need to tap on the row anywhere but on the text to select it. Then, if you tap on the text it'll go in edit mode. Is there a way to let the list do its selection? I tried wrapping the tap gesture in simultaneousGesture but that didn't work. Thanks!

Hello, I'm developing a Transparent Proxy and I noticed that the Network Extension Framework logs in the Unified Logging System when my profile receives a flow, its source application, its destination endpoint, and my profile's decision regarding that flow. I worry that this may compromise the user's privacy. So is there a way that I can turn off these logs at least in Distribution Configurations?

I was my understanding that you're supposed to be able to open a .ips crash log in Xcode and see pretty much what you would see if the app had been running in the debugger when it crashed. But the addresses in my app don't get symbolicated. I opened the .ips in the same project and same version of Xcode that was used to create the app. The .dSym file is around, and I can use it to symbolicate using the atos tool. What am I missing?

I have a macOS app made with SwiftUI where I want to show a list of data in a tabular fashion. SwiftUI Table seems to be the only built-in component that can do this. I would like to let the user size the columns and have their widths restored when the app is relaunched. I can find no documentation on how to do this and it does not seem to be saved and restored automatically. I can find no way to listen for changes in the column widths when the user resizes and no way to set the size from code. For a macOS app it seems that the only way to set the width of a column is to use e.g. .width(min: 200, max: 200). This in effect disables resizing of the column. It seems that idealSize is totally ignored on macOS. Any suggestions?

Is there a SwuiftUI way to remove the bezel from the compact DatePicker on MacOS? I have an AppKit version but getting the font/background colors to behave is overly complicated for such a simple mission.

Environment: Xcode v. 16.2; Swift version 6+ Scenario: I have an .xcodeproj within an .xcsworkingspace that must follow the 'command-line' paradigm outside the sandbox. My UnitTest (using the newer 'Swift Test' vs 'XCTest') is hitting runtime fatal errors due to sandbox violations. Here's a typical error line from the compiler: 1 duplicate report for Sandbox: chmod(41377) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Ric/Library/.. I've set the .entitlement to ignore sandbox: &amp;lt;key&amp;gt;com.apple.security.app-sandbox&amp;lt;/key&amp;gt; &amp;lt;false/&amp;gt; I also created a shell script in the project build phase to access my TestData which was copied via a Build Phase: #!/bin/bash BUILD_DIR="${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}" TEST_DATA="${SRCROOT}/SwiftModelTest/TestData" mkdir -p "${BUILD_DIR}/TestData" cp -R "${TEST_DATA}/" "${BUILD_DIR}/TestData/" What do I need to allow real-time Testing of my code without worrying about the Sandbox?

Hello, I have created a .NET MAUI application in Windows Visual Studio 2022. Also I have a MAC fully configured with latest Visual Studio for MAC and Xcode Installed. When pairing the MAC for windows machine I am able to run the simulators for various IPhone devices(as they are attached to MAC) but when I try to run for the MacCatalyst from my Windows machine it doesnt work. Is it possible to create a build for the MAUI application for MacCatalyst from my windows machine.The build should be created in my Windows folder directory.?

I have been experiencing an issue with my MacBook Air 2024 model that is equipped with the latest M3 chip. After upgrading to the beta version of the operating system, I've noticed that when I close the lid to put the laptop to sleep, and then open it to wake it up, the system unexpectedly restarts instead of resuming from where it left off. This behavior is not only inconvenient but also raises concerns about potential data loss or corruption during the unexpected restarts. I understand that beta versions can have bugs, but I was hoping to receive some guidance on whether this is a known issue or if there are any steps I can take to troubleshoot and resolve this problem. Any assistance or insights into this matter would be greatly appreciated.

A question from an ordinary user for developers: The essence of the problem: I installed the To Do List by MinimaList app on both my MacBook and iPhone. After installing it, I decided not to use it and deleted the application. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/minimalist-to-do-list-widget/id993066159 However, it turned out that not everything was removed. Specifically: • In the “Allow Others to Find Me” section on both my MacBook and iPhone, these apps still appear. No matter what I do—whether I delete or clear them—they continue to be displayed there. • This app continues to appear in the section located at: Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Stored in iCloud → See All → Allow Finding Me – To Do List and one more item. • It cannot be deleted. • It won’t delete on my MacBook, and it won’t delete on my iPhone. • It also appeared in iCloud itself under the Email Search section. P.S. The official Apple support (without violating any internal regulations) advised me to post on the forum to get in touch with Apple developers. In hope, I am posting this question here.

Hello! I've been facing an issue with notarizing a macOS app with an Enterprise API Key. Due to some misunderstanding setting up the project some years ago, the notarization step was using a developer's accounts API Key. I am looking to fix it to have everything centralized in the Enterprise account we work with, but I get "Debug [JWT] Generating new JWT for key ID" with the new key. This is using the xcrun notarytool directly to get more input. Using Fastlane it fails as: Error polling for notarization info: [11:29:25]: unexpected token at '' The project is deployed via MDM, so we need it to prevent the security warning. I used this documentation to create the key: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/enterpriseprogramapi/creating-api-keys-for-enterprise-program-api I have tried a Developer and an Admin access key, and the Account Holder has also created an Admin key but the errors keep the same. I just updated my Fastlane script to use the new key with the updated values. The old developer account key still works. I am not sure if I am missing any steps in the documentation or if this is not achievable. Important to add that all the profiles and certificates were already set up properly in the Enterprise account, the only error was using an App Store Connect Key instead of an Enterprise Key. Thanks in advance for the help.

I would like to provide a way to choose an app icon as a reward for using the referral feature of the app. I found that setting the image via NSApp.applicationIconImage works, but only when the app is running, and the app icon is reset on the next launch. I also found NSDockTile plugin APIs, and that seems to be the way, but it won't be allowed on the Mac App Store. Is there really no way to do it legit way and pass the Mac App Store review? Seems to be another really strange limitation imposed.

Hi, I'm developing a multi-platform project in Windows, Mac and Linux. I am trying to create a wrapper class in Go that will query system information and history. I see that the Unified Logging System is a sophisticated way to get all sorts of kernel information (and even a long history including rotated logs). However, I am struggling to see how I can use the APIs in other languages aside from Swift itself (or C). I do not want to use the log or last commands to query information in separate child processes in my project. I would like to simply query the database itself, similar to using OSLog in Swift. If this is something that is entirely proprietary or not possible, let me know :)

On wake from sleep the Mac Studio's Desktop picture is shown in actual resolution instead of stretched to fit screen. For example, a picture which is 2059 × 1371 is shown at that resolution on a 5K Retina screen and so only fills about 60% of the screen area. It starts with the picture positioned in the top left corner but sometimes moves down the screen. This behaviour does not change if the screen is scaled up or down – the picture size is also scaled. Notice that icons on the Desktop are displayed in the correct position. At the same time, the Dock is shown at the bottom of the picture instead of at the bottom of the screen. Usually, the Desktop redisplays correctly. But increasingly, the only solution is to log out and in again. This might be related to my other question on the Desktop picture Pref Pane. See attached example which is a full screen capture i.e. command-shift-3 (with my personal details obscured):

I'm working on a SwiftUI based application for MacOS. I have a TabView component with two child Tab components. These Tab components display a List, each derived from an array of elements. While the application is running, clicking on the tabs in the TabView should switch between the views of different Lists. What I'm experiencing is that switching between the tabs causes a FAULT. With errors: Row index 1 out of row range (numberOfRows: 1) for <SwiftUI.SwiftUIOutlineListView: 0x1299d2000> Followed by: ( 0 CoreFoundation 0x000000019e096e80 __exceptionPreprocess + 176 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x000000019db7ecd8 objc_exception_throw + 88 2 AppKit 0x00000001a1c744e8 -[NSTableRowData _availableRowViewWhileUpdatingAtRow:] + 0 3 SwiftUI 0x00000001cd8953f4 $s7SwiftUI0A17UIOutlineListViewC11removeItems2at8inParent13withAnimationy10Foundation8IndexSetV_ypSgSo07NSTableeL7OptionsVtF + 1232 ... ... ) And finally: FAULT: NSTableViewException: Row index 1 out of row range (numberOfRows: 1) for <SwiftUI.SwiftUIOutlineListView: 0x1299d2000>; (user info absent) This error happens when switching between the two tabs, defined thusly: @main struct MyApp: App { @State var rootDirectory: URL @State var selectedItem: URL @State var projectNavItems: [NavigationItem] = [] @State var jotNavItems: [NavigationItem] = [] @State var importerIsPresented: Bool = false let fileManager = FileManager.default init() { rootDirectory = URL(string: FileManager.default.currentDirectoryPath)! selectedItem = URL(string: FileManager.default.currentDirectoryPath)!.appendingPathComponent("README.md") } var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { NavigationSplitView { TabView { Tab("Projects", systemImage: "tray.and.arrow.down.fill") { List(projectNavItems, selection: $selectedItem) { // Changing this NavigationLink line to Text($0.title) makes no difference NavigationLink($0.title, value: $0.id) } } Tab("Jots", systemImage: "tray.and.arrow.up.fill") { List(jotNavItems, selection: $selectedJot) { // Can be written as Text($0.title) with no change in behavior NavigationLink($0.title, value: $0.id) } } } } detail: { Editor(for: selectedItem) } .fileImporter( isPresented: $importerIsPresented, allowedContentTypes: [UTType.folder], allowsMultipleSelection: false ) { result in // Code that gets a security scoped resource and populates the // projectNavItems: [NavItem] and jotNavItems: [NavItem] // arrays } } .commands(content: { CommandGroup (before: .newItem) { Button("Open Journal...") { importerIsPresented.toggle() } } }) } } The error only happens when both Tab views are populated by a List. If the Tab view have different child components, say a List, and a ForEach of Text components, switching between the tabs doesn't produce this error. List views with Text child components also produce this error. Here are screenshots of the running application Once the user selects a directory, we see the first Tab > List component populated by contents from the projectNavItems array: Clicking on the 'Jots' tab switches to the appropriate tab and correctly lists the items in the jotNavItems array, except there are additional lines, seemingly showing that there's an issue. Clicking back on the 'Projects' tab switches back, but now the List shows only one of the items from the projectNavItems array. Finally, clicking on 'Jots' again causes the errors to print in the console and interactivity with the tab components ceases. Last screenshot is representative of this state as the application FAULTS. This seems like a bug in SwifUI, wondering what workarounds I might be able to implement. I can provide the full backtrace, I cropped it for content length.

Description When starting the iOS simulators on macOS-15 intel image, the following assertion happens: The same issue not showing for macOS 15-arm64 image.

Xcode 16.2 are unavailable to develop widget with dynamic options, no matter SiriIntent or AppIntent that I try to use. I have try to start a complete new project, then add widget with app intent checkbox check, with zero code changed then i press command run and WidgetKit Simulator present CHSErrorDomain error 1103 always, if i try to add widget directly from desktop, dynamic options are available to select but widgets doesn't seem like load successfully, it is stuck same in the WidgetKit Simulator. I also try to start a new project in my other MacBook but no luck, this error are presenting all the time, I'm totally stuck here, does anybody having this issue?

In the macOS 14.0 SDK, environment and library constraints were introduced, which made defense against common attack vectors relatively simple (especially with the LightWeightCodeRequirements framework added in 14.4). Now, the application I'm working on must support macOS 13.0 too, so I was looking into alternatives that do work for those operating systems as well. What I found myself is that the SecCode/SecStaticCode APIs in the Security Framework do offer very similar fashion checks as the LightWeightCodeRequirements framework does: SecCodeCopySigningInformation can return values like signing identifier, team identifier, code requirement string and so on. SecStaticCodeCreateWithPath can return a SecStaticCode object to an executable/app bundle on the file system. Let's say, I would want to protect myself against launchd executable swap. From macOS 14.0 onward, I would use a Spawn Constraint for this, directly in the launchd.plist file. Before macOS 14.0, I would create a SecStaticCode object for the executable path found in the launchd.plist, and then examine its SecCodeCopySigningInformation dictionary. If the expectations are met, only then would I execute the launchd.plist-defined executable or connect to it via XPC. Are these two equivalent? If not, what are the differences?
