I'm trying to put a sub menu inside the context menu using the NSExtensionFileProviderActions in info.plist. Which should look like this image below I have been trying to use FPUIActionExtensionViewController for doing this task but I havent got any context menu like above. But still doing that does seem to complicate the task more. Is there a simpler way to do this task, like doing it within the info.plist so I dont have to complicate the task by creating a view controller. ?

We attempted to run a burn-in test while connected to our MacBook Pro M4 Max, but this crashed about 10 minutes into testing. We tried to run a 2-hour burn-in on M4 Max host while charging the battery from below 5%, running six bus-powered drives (via ATTO/Black Magic/IOmeter), hitting the RJ45 port for 2.5Gbps (via JPerf), and streaming at least 4K60Hz video content to two display, however, M4 Max will crashed in 20 [minutes.]( https://www.example.com/)

I posted about this about 5 years ago, and now at last it's close to being finished. The main problem that I now have is related to matching up DWARF debuginfo and global variables. This works fairly well on macOS 10.14. On 10.15 much less so, and I think that the reason is how the macho data is mmap'd. When Valgrind runs it does the job of the OS and loads the guest exe into memory. It'll then load and run dyld in Valgrind. I can get memory map debug traces. In one test with a problem I see 4 load segments. __DATA_CONST and __DATA both have prot 3 (RW) so we load them RW and not R then RW. Then I think that dyld munmaps and re mmaps the _DATA_CONST segment as RO. Valgrind works based on mmaps triggering reading debuginfo. I don't think that it handles munmap correctly. I need to debug that a lot more - I can see the changed mappings in the debug output but I don't see exactly what is happening with munmap and mmap (unless dyld is doing that on a section by basis). Does what I'm saying about the mappings make any sense?

We have a simple function that retrieves users list via CSIdentityQueryCreate() and CSIdentityQueryExecute().

// do something including calling getpwuid() } unique_cfref is just a std::unique_ptr wrapper that calls CFRelease when we goes out of scope. Looks like something in OpenDirectory tries to access released data (weak references and delayed processing?). The problem seems to occur on macOS 15. Is there any bug/regression, should we file a feedback? Or maybe we do something wrong?

I am using the MatterSupport extension to commission devices for my own ecosystem. I use the extension to do the initial connection to the device (BLE, PASE, bring device onto wifi/thread) and then use the method commissionDevice(in home: MatterAddDeviceRequest.Home?, onboardingPayload: String, commissioningID: UUID) in MatterAddDeviceExtensionRequestHandler to send a request to my own hub on the local network where it then connects to the device via wifi/thread and fully commissions the device. This flow is working correctly for wifi enabled devices, however it fails for thread devices. For some context, I am using my own border router (and have already added the router's credentials to the phone using THClient's storeCredentials). Here are some device-specific results: ESP32 (WIFI): successful commission ESP32 (THREAD): failure Matter Certified ONVIS smart plug (THREAD): failure The ESP32's are running espressif matter examples. Example border router is a running OTBR docker container I believe that the entire PASE session is established and the device gets onto the thread network, but the process seems to stall after that. I have verified that selectThreadNetwork(...) and validateDeviceCredential(...) get called but the commissioning process seems to stall before it can get to commissionDevice(...) I am limited to 7k characters, but I'll try to include as many relevant log lines as I can near the error if anyone has any ideas. I've already created a bug report with ID: FB18985348 which includes the full logs from the esp32 and a sysdiagnose from an iPhone 12 Pro (iOS 18.5) using the following log profiles: Home app/HomeKit HomeThread ThreadNetwork When commissioning directly from my hub, the entire commissioning completes successfully 100% of the time.

Since upgrading to Mac OS 10.5 Beta-2, daemons launched with launchctl are failing to open Desktop/Documents/Downloads files and folders even in read mode with an error "Operation not permitted".Does anyone facing this issue?

When I use MatterSupport to configure a Tread device for networking, the selectThreadNetwork callback in MatterAddDeviceExtensionRequestHandler returns my own Tread network(.network(extendedPANID:), but I cannot successfully add the device to my own Tread network.

I have an app that uses BLE to connect to access doors. Since iOS 26, when it hasn't connected to any doors for a while, it deactivates, whereas in older versions of iOS it continues to work all day without stopping. Has anyone else experienced this? I've found problems with people who have had the same issue since upgrading to the latest version of iOS 26. Is there a known issue with BLE in iOS 26? I haven't found any official information. thnks

I want to use FileProvder to implement the function of recovering from the recycle bin (the cloud recycle bin does not move, and after the local recycle bin is restored, the upload event is triggered again), but testing shows that the current recovery from the recycle bin is through the modifyItem event, and the CreateItem event is not triggered again to upload locally restored files Implement the deletion of undelivered files (dateless) without moving them to the recycle bin, which currently appears to be achieved by granting file. dash permission. But it is possible for the content of a file to be manually verified by the user. How can this be solved? How can we dynamically monitor whether a file is dataless Thank you for your reply. Could you please help answer my question

My main goal is to maximize BLE range at the moment, though eventually I would like to allow for greater throughput when updating firmware over the air as well. I understand that Coded PHY is not on the roadmap based on the support ticket I previously entered, but is there any way to force 1M PHY. Even when I request it, I get a phy renegotiation (update) of 2 PHY.

Does Bluetooth work in the background in iOS 26?

A user of one of my apps reported that since the update to macOS 26.1 they are no longer able to scan Macintosh HD: the app used to work, but now always reports that Macintosh HD contains a single empty file named .nofollow, or rather the path is resolved to /.nofollow. Initially I thought this could be related to resolving the file from the saved bookmark data, but even restarting the app and selecting Macintosh HD in an open panel (without resolving the bookmark data) produces the same result. The user tried another app of mine with the same issue, but said that they were able to scan Macintosh HD in other App Store apps. I never heard of this issue before and my apps have been on the App Store for many years, but it looks like I might be doing something wrong, or the APIs that I use are somehow broken. In all my apps I currently use getattrlistbulk because I need attributes that are not available as URLResourceKey in all supported operating system versions. What could be the issue? I'm on macOS 26.1 myself and never experienced it.

I try saving the value of NSURLVolumeURLKey when creating a bookmark. When resolving the bookmark later I pass the bookmark data to +resourceValuesForKeys:fromBookmarkData: but always pull out "file:///" which is wrong. In contrast the value for NSURLVolumeURLForRemountingKey is properly saved and restored using the same method.

I'm new to swift and iOS development. I'm trying to create a file provider extension for my app. I have able to use createItem, modifyItem, fetchContents functions. But when I try to add a GarageBand file or a big size mp3 file(18 Mb) I can see multiple upload is happening. I checked the FruitBasket project where they are doing chunked upload when file size is more than 100 Mb. How do I fix this to only one upload? I'm getting suggestions like I have to do debounce upload but that seems not a proper solutions.

I just saw another post regarding bookmarks on iOS where an Apple engineer made the following statement: [quote='855165022, DTS Engineer, /thread/797469?answerId=855165022#855165022'] macOS is better at enforcing the "right" behavior, so code that works there will generally work on iOS. [/quote] So I went back to my macOS code to double-check. Sure enough, the following statement: let bookmark = try url.bookmarkData(options: .withSecurityScope) fails 100% of the time. I had seen earlier statements from other DTS Engineers recommending that any use of a URL be bracketed by start/stopAccessingSecurityScopedResource. And that makes a lot of sense. If "start" returns true, then call stop. But if start returns false, then it isn't needed, so don't call stop. No harm, no foul. But what's confusing is this other, directly-related API where a security-scoped bookmark cannot be created under any circumstances because of the URL itself, some specific way the URL was initially created, and/or manipulated? So, what I'm asking is if someone could elaborate on what would cause a failure to create a security-scoped bookmark? What kinds of URLs are valid for creation of security-scoped bookmarks? Are there operations on a URL that will then cause a failure to create a security-scoped bookmark? Is it allowed to pass the URL and/or bookmark back and forth between Objective-C and Swift? I'm developing a new macOS app for release in the Mac App Store. I'm initially getting my URL from an NSOpenPanel. Then I store it in a SQLite database. I may access the URL again, after a restart, or after a year. I have a login item that also needs to read the database and access the URL. I have additional complications as well, but they don't really matter. Before I get to any of that, I get a whole volume URL from an NSOpen panel in Swift, then, almost immediately, attempt to create a security-scoped bookmark. I cannot. I've tried many different combinations of options and flows of operation, but obviously not all. I think this started happening with macOS 26, but that doesn't really matter. If this is new behaviour in macOS 26, then I must live with it. My particular use requires a URL to a whole volume. Because of this, I don't actually seem to need a security-scoped bookmark at all. So I think I might simply get lucky for now. But this still bothers me. I don't really like being lucky. I'd rather be right. I have other apps in development where this could be a bigger problem. It seems like I will need completely separate URL handling logic based on the type of URL the user selects. And what of document-scoped URLs? This experience seems to strongly indicate that security-scoped URLs should only ever be document-scoped. I think in some of my debugging efforts I tried document-scoped URLs. They didn't fix the problem, but they seemed to make the entire process more straightforward and transparent. Can a single metadata-hosting file host multiple security-scoped bookmarks? Or should I have a separate one for each bookmark? But the essence of my question is that this is supposed to be simple operation that, in certain cases, is a guaranteed failure. There are a mind-bogglingly large number of potential options and logic flows. Does there exist a set of options and logic flows for which the user can select a URL, any URL, with the explicit intent to persist it, and that my app can save, share with helper apps, and have it all work normally after restart?

We attempted to run a burn-in test while connected to our MacBook Pro M4 Max, but this crashed about 10 minutes into testing. Can Action Star see if you are able to run a 2-hour burn-in on your own M4 Max host while charging the battery from below 5%, running six bus-powered drives (via ATTO/Black Magic/IOmeter), hitting the RJ45 port for 2.5Gbps (via JPerf), and streaming at least 4K60Hz video content to two displays? Please measure the outer temperature on the hottest part of the enclosure as well.

If I have two iOS apps, with bundle ids com.mycompany.A and com.mycompany.B, and they both have the shared group id of group.com.mycompany.B, then they can read/write data to same file (in shared defaults or, for example, a Realm database saved to the same shared group location). What I have noticed is that if both apps get installed and some data X written to shared defaults (but data which isn't accessed by both apps i.e. if only app A uses this data), then if app A is deleted and reinstalled then X is not deleted in this situation (unless both apps A and B are deleted). I guess that is to be expected as they both use the same group id and the OS won't clear that area out unless both apps are deleted. However I think I am seeing a situation where if app A has group.com.mycompany.A as its group and app B has group.com.mycompany.B as its group, then this is still the same situation - data written by app B for doesn't get deleted if only app B is deleted/reinstalled on the phone. It won't get deleted unless both app B and A are deleted from the phone. This is not what I was expecting. I need to perform some more checks (its more complex to verify as app A is developed by one company and app B by another), but if this were to be the case would this be unexpected behavior by the OS? Presumably it would be unexpected as the container should be identified by the full group id and not a partial portion of the group id right?

I would like to inquire about Apple's recommended best practices for iPhone thermal management. Specifically, what actions are developers expected to take to prevent the device from overheating? I am aware that we should subscribe to Thermal State Notifications and throttle performance accordingly—such as by reducing streaming quality or temporarily disabling active features. Beyond these measures, are there any other strategies you recommend to mitigate thermal issues and help the device cool down?

Hello, I have an Asset Pack that's a database. I need to use it in 2 apps. I'm curious at the expected functionality of cross app Asset Pack distribution as I've seen conflicting behavior. (1) Each app is required to have its own unique Background Assets Target. (2) Uploading the asset pack requires the App ID to be included. (3) I'm able to access the Asset Pack of App #1 inside of App #2 by using AssetPackManager.shared.ensureLocalAvailability(of:) with local testing (Not TestFlight) This is a technical question as originally I planned to duplicate the upload of the Asset Pack to both individual apps.
