So after multiple attempts over the course of a couple days. I was able to restore my girl friends iPhone. Like others the iPhone was stuck in a boot loop due to not having enough storage on the phone, which was false but anyway, Some tips I gathered after failed attempts is to make sure your laptop is updated to the most recent OS and has available storage of atleast 8.11 gb to use. next step once you get to finder only click restore. do not click update or it will not work. Once you click restore, it will prompt for the update and restore process to occur. After that you wait for everything to process and the phone should be restored/updated and you will be able to do an iCloud back up.

In our macOS daemon process, we are trying to validate a leaf certificate by anchoring intermediate CA cert and evaluating it using SecTrustEvaluateWithError. The leaf certificate contains couple of non-critical MS extensions (1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.10 and 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.7). The macOS API fails to parse these extensions and does not evaluate the cert chain. Below is the error returned: { NSLocalizedDescription = "\U201abc\U201d certificate is not standards compliant"; NSUnderlyingError = "Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-67618 \"Certificate 0 \U201abc\U201d has errors: Unable to parse known extension;\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Certificate 0 \U201abc\U201d has errors: Unable to parse known extension;}"; } As per RFC2459, a non-critical extension can be ignored by the system: A certificate using system MUST reject the certificate if it encounters a critical extension it does not recognize; however, a non-critical extension may be ignored if it is not recognized. So, why does macOS not ignore these non-critical extension and returns a failure? OS version is 14.4.1.

For scheduling purpose our Mac application using crontab terminal commands, which are working fine when sandbox is not enabled. For submitting the application to Appstore, we enabled the sandbox option and after that Crontab commands are not working. Getting the error messages as, /bin/sh: /usr/bin/crontab: Operation not permitted. Could you please guide us how to use the crontab commands when sandbox option enabled.

We're testing this new functionality with our app. One issue I've discovered is that because Gmail intentionally doesn't support push via the Mail app, sending codes to a Gmail email means users will likely never see this autofill. It does appear if you enter the Mail app, pull new messages, and then quickly switch back to the code entry in your app and present the keyboard. I'm basically looking for a behaviour correction here from Apple. Perhaps iOS should intercept notifications for the Gmail app (and other notable apps), or provide a way for devs to publish codes to a system API. As it stands, a large portion of our customers who use Gmail presumably will not be able to use this autofill feature.

Hi, We try to geolocate with UWB signal an app in background with NXP UWB Kit. We use Nearby Interaction method in background Apple documentation indicate to use this class: NINearbyAccessoryConfiguration but we have this error when we try to create the session: NIERROR_ACCESSORY_PEER_DEVICE_UNAVAILABLE_FAILURE_REASON any body can help us to use successfully this functionnality ?

From iOS 17.4, CoreNFC does not seem to be throwing any exception when there are no valid iso7816.select-identifiers found during polling for a NFCTagReaderSession. Instead, CoreNFC would continue with processing the tag with no initialSelectedAID. This is an intended behavior after updates to CoreNFC on iOS17.4? Or is this behavior a bug and not actually intended?

Hi, For the very same plugin dlopen() sometimes fails. The library is present but sometimes it returns NULL and sometimes a valid plugin handle. Here is the code: char *filename; void *plugin_so; filename = "/Applications/com.example.MyApp/Contents/Plugins/myplugin.dylib"; plugin_so = dlopen(filename, RTLD_NOW); I have debugged using lldb checked filename and it is present. The myplugin.dylib file supports 2 architectures, arm64 and x86_64. regards, Joël

1.Does the Immersive Video still consist of a 2-way video? Is there depth information included? 2.Does Immersive Video uses MV-HEVC standard? 3.What is the difference between Immersive Video and Spatial Video? 4.Does Immersive Video currently support up to 180-degree 8K resolution? Will it expand to 360 degrees in the future? What's the resolution ceiling? 5.What are the requirements for third-party capture coding and packaging for Immersive Video? 6.Can you give me some video package materials for Immersive Video?

I have used functionality of changing user's password programmatically using the OpenDirectory framework. Once the password is updated successfully, can be use this password for Login sessions and authentication wherever required. But the same password is failing authenticate with Local Authentication Framework that is with LAContext and prefers always older password. Even restarting machine won't work. Changing current user's password using below method - do { let node = try ODNode(session: ODSession.default(), type: ODNodeType(kODNodeTypeLocalNodes)) let user = try node.record(withRecordType: kODRecordTypeUsers, name: NSUserName(), attributes: nil) try user.changePassword(currentPassword, toPassword: newPassword) print("Password changed successfully") } catch var error { print(error) } Once password is updated, then trying to authenticate password with LAContext using, let context = LAContext() context.evaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthentication, localizedReason: "AuthenticationMessage".localized()) { success, error in DispatchQueue.main.async { completion(success, error) } print("authentication error = (String(describing: error?.localizedDescription))") } It won't accept the updated password. Any idea how to solve this problem?

I have a couple of LaunchDaemon installed helper executables that are calling a bash script. As of MacOS 13, these are now showing up as unidentified developer in Login Items which I am trying to resolve. I have tried setting AssociateBundleIdentifiers in my plist file but the console tells me it is being ignored because bash does not have a Team Identifier. I believe the fully correct way to resolve this is to switch to the new Service Management API, but my understanding is that would only work on MacOS 13 and would therefore break my app on older versions of MacOS My questions are: is there any other way to make my helper as part of my app's login items that I have missed? is there an easy way to make an installer that will work for both newer and older versions of MacOS without having to package two separate versions?

I am working on an App and I am in the process of adding Syphon support. Syphon uses CFMessagePort for IPC and passing of FrameBuffer data (MTLTexture) between apps - and is widely used in the professional video app and video production space. What I have noticed is that when the App is built as a Sandbox app, during the Syphon initialization, I see the following error message in the log: *** CFMessagePort: bootstrap_register(): failed 1100 (0x44c) 'Permission denied', port = 0x8703, name = 'info.v002.Syphon.D2499DBD-93AE-4CEA-B21F-FF356DCC069D' See /usr/include/servers/bootstrap_defs.h for the error codes. Syphon uses the "info.v002.Syphon.UUID" naming convention to identify IPC Syphon servers, so I don't think I can use the App Groups naming convention for Sandbox support. I have a very simple example app on github that publishes SpriteKit frames as a Syphon Server. To see the issue, simply enable App Sandbox for the build, and run the app. You should see the error message in the log and no data appears in any Syphon Client (I use Syphon Recorder for testing - available at syphon.github . io I am looking for other options to enable CFMessagePorts on a Sandbox App.

I have configured AASA file to support path such as https://domain/forgot-password?token=asadsad3ddsd. It is not opening in browser nor app. I have tried different iterations to support the above url. iteration 1 : components : [ { "/" : "/forgot-password" , "?" : { "token" : "?*} ] iteration 2 : components : [ { "/" : "*" } ] iteration 3 : components : [ { "/" : "/forgot-password" , "?" : { "token" : "?????..." } ] my token is of length 36. so I have kept 36 question marks. do we need to configure something in flutter app delegate to support query parameters.

I am trying to code out a background refresh part of my app but there are two centralManager functions in the app. func centralManager(_ central: CBCentralManager, didDiscover peripheral: CBPeripheral, advertisementData: [String : Any], rssi RSSI: NSNumber) { if peripheral.identifier.uuidString == selected { selectedPeripheral = peripheral centralManager?.stopScan() centralManager?.connect(selectedPeripheral!, options: nil) } } func centralManager(_ central: CBCentralManager, didConnect peripheral: CBPeripheral) { print("Connected to peripheral: \(peripheral)") // Subscribe to disconnection events peripheral .publisher(for: \.state) .sink { [weak self] state in if state == .connected { self?.isConnected = true } else if state == .disconnected { // Peripheral is disconnected, send notification if self?.isConnected == true { self?.sendNotification() self?.isConnected = false } } } .store(in: &amp;cancellables) } and this is the refresh part private func handleBluetoothMonitoring(task: BGAppRefreshTask, bluetoothMonitor: BluetoothMonitor) { let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.yourcompany.bluetoothmonitor") task.expirationHandler = { // Handle expiration of the task if needed } queue.async { // Perform Bluetooth monitoring tasks here if let centralManagerInstance = bluetoothMonitor.centralManager { DispatchQueue.main.async { bluetoothMonitor.centralManagerDidUpdateState(centralManagerInstance) } } else { print("Central manager is nil") } // End the task task.setTaskCompleted(success: true) } } Is there a way to solve this? Thanks!

For accessibility dev purposes, I am trying to move the iPadOS (17.4) pointer via virtual mouse and keyboard events generated via pynput. All keyboard keys, mouse click events, and scroll events are registered when relayed to the iPad and works as expected, except for mouse position and move events. Is this something iPadOS blocks specifically or is there a work around? Thanks in advance

I searched several times online for someone who is using the new ASWebAuthenticationSession init together with matchesURL but I haven't found any mention of it. Is anyone using this new initializer? If so, can someone please share a code example? I'm trying to use the new initializer with a https redirect URL. Thank you!

I am using the following shell script to return an image preview for use in FileMaker: qlmanage -t [sourcePath] -s 512 -o [outputPath] This usually works well, but it hangs if the RGB image (.tif, .psb, or .psd) has too many Alpha Channels ( >20 if on transparent background; >21 if flattened). This issue can be also be seen when looking at the image thumbnail or preview in the Finder. It appears MacOS won't create a thumbnail when the image has over 21 Alpha Channels... it just shows the default tif/psb/psd thumbnail, even if the image is very small. Environment MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Adobe Photoshop 2024 (25.6.0) Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility is enabled when saved from Photoshop Since I'm only able to upload a screenshot to this post, the original test files can be found in the Adobe Forum with the Title: "MacOS Finder Preview Limited to 20-21 Alpha Channels?"

I was wondering if through the "People Awareness" functionality we can access the approximate position of people when creating our own XR apps. For example, this could be used to adjust the position of virtual objects so they do not occlude or collide with the person.

We are trying to diagnose an issue with our VPN network extension but have discovered that the VPN logging profile, available on the Apple Developer website is not valid: We have tried installing it on multiple phones, including the latest version of iOS 17 with no success so far. We would appreciate if the profile could be updated as soon as possible.
