Environment iPad：10th iOS：18.1 Printer：EPSON PX-S730 Problem In iOS18.1, When printing with AirPrint, PrintCenter is no longer displayed on AppSwitcher. In iOS17, PrintCenter was displayed on AppSwitcher. Question Is this a specification change? I would like to know if there is a way to check PrintCenter on AppSwitcher in the same way as iOS17. Ref No information after iOS18.1 update. https://support.apple.com/ja-jp/109349 There is no mention of AirPrint updates in the AppleDeveloper release notes. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/ios-ipados-release-notes/ios-ipados-18-release-notes https://developer.apple.com/documentation/ios-ipados-release-notes/ios-ipados-18_1-release-notes

Hello Currently, we are developing an application that collects measurement data from devices via USB port but we have some problems regarding input buffer size that might reduce the reading speed. The data size is quite big (~1.5 million bytes). For every read action, the app will check the available size in the input buffer by command: ioctl(serialPort.hHandle, FIONREAD, readBuffSize) Then that size will be passed as the desired size for the read command. Between read actions, there will be a short sleep (1 - 3 ms). Please confirm some points below: Regardless of the size of the measure data, the available size will only be up to 1020 bytes, is it expected? Is the above size OS defined or driver defined? Could we increase it? As we checked, there were some missing bytes between the measure data and the actual read data. Is there any chance that the data in the input buffer be overwritten while the read thread is in sleep? Any recommended technique that can increase reading speed while still maintaining the integrity of the data? Tested OS: Sonoma 14.5

Since updating to 18.0 & 18.1 I’ve have issues with CarPlay connected via usb, phone calls specifically where people would say I sound distant and robotic distortion. Tried other vehicles same issue new usb same issue, tried all recommendations with no success some one who refused to update theirs worked well without any issues I’m currently facing. Any suggestions or there gonna be an update that addresses this issue ?

Hi everyone. I have an iOS application for work with an MFi-certified device connected to the iPhone via USB-C. When I launch the app and attach the device, I can create an EASession and use the InputStream and OutputStream as usual. But if I attach the device before launching the app I can't use the InputStream and OutputStream, because the hasBytesAvailable and hasSpaceAvailable properties are always false. The NSStreamEventHasBytesAvailable and NSStreamEventHasSpaceAvailable events will never be triggered. After I re-attach the device, the streams open fine and I can interact with the device. What can be wrong with the case of attaching the device before the app launches?

my carplay is not sinking with iphone after up dating to iOS 18. I have honda ZRV. What is the issue and how to resolve?

I am porting a working kernel extension IOKit driver to a DriverKit system extension. Our device is a PCI device accessed through Thunderbolt. The change from IOPCIFamily to PCIDriverKit has some differences in approach, though. Namely, in IOKit / IOPCIFamily, this was the correct way to become Bus Leader: mPCIDevice->setBusLeadEnable(true); // setBusMasterEnable(..) deprecated in OS 12.4 but now, PCIDriverKit's IOPCIDevice does not have that function. Instead I am doing the following: // Set Bus Leader and Memory Space enable uint16_t commandRegister = 0; ivars->mPCIDevice->ConfigurationRead16(kIOPCIConfigurationOffsetCommand, &commandRegister); commandRegister |= (kIOPCICommandBusLead | kIOPCICommandMemorySpace); ivars->mPCIDevice->ConfigurationWrite16(kIOPCIConfigurationOffsetCommand, commandRegister); But I am not convinced this is working (I am still experiencing unexpected errors when attempting to DMA from our device, using the same steps that work for the kernel extension). The only hint I can find in the online documentation is here, which reads: Note The endpoint driver is responsible for enabling the Memory Space Enable and Bus Master Enable settings each time it configures the PCI device. When a crash occurs, or when the system unloads your driver, the system disables these features. ...but that does not state directly how to enable bus leader status. What is the "PCIDriverKit approved" way to become bus leader? Is there a way to verify/confirm that a device is bus leader? (This would be helpful to prove that bus leadership is not the issue for DMA errors, as well as to confirm that bus leadership was granted). Thanks in advance!

Hello, forum, I'm trying to build connection between a non-MFi HID device (like keyboard) and iOS app with IOKit and Swift. Thanks to this post, I have manage to import the IOKit into objc header. IOKit on iOS/iPadOS 16.0+ #import <IOKit/IOKitLib.h> However, I have this compiler error when I try to imitate same methods in the SerialPortSaple project from following article, but the IOKit can not be imported to Swift at first place. Communicating with a Modem on a Serial Port The screen shot of the sample project: It looks like the complier unable to reach the io_object_t type somehow, is there any workaround or approach?

Hi everyone, Are there any new updates on communicating with iPhones via USB-C without needing an MFi chip, especially with the iPhone 15 or upcoming iPhone 16? I'm developing a custom accessory and wondering if the switch to USB-C has introduced any new possibilities for data communication without going through the MFi program. Thanks!

Hello everybody, Since macOS 15, the systemextension allow in changed as switch style and put in the "Login items & Extensions". I know the URL navigating to here, which is: x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.LoginItems-Settings.extension But the extension options we need to scroll deep down and we need to click the "!" to open it. I want to open the finally window for user can easily see it and enable it. Please tell me how. Appreciate!!

Is there an option to create a macOS filter driver for the IONVMeFamily Driver that would enable sending NVMe Admin commands( likes security send , security receive, Firmware download)? This approach would allow us to reuse the IO path provided by the family driver.

Hello, I'm developing a custom AU plugin that needs to connect to a DriverKit driver. Using the DriverKit sample (https://github.com/DanBurkhardt/DriverKitUserClientSample.git), I was able to get a standalone app to connect to the driver successfully. However, the AU plugin, running in a sandboxed host, isn't establishing the connection. I’ve already added the app sandbox entitlement, but it hasn’t helped. Any advice on what might be missing? TIA!
