In IOS17 and IOS18, core spotlight can only match app contents by searching for the displayName, but cannot hit the contents by using keywords. Moreover, when matching the app content by searching for the "displayName", it requires inputting four consecutive characters to achieve a match.These issues did not occur in iOS 16. What is the reason for this? Here is my code. func addItemToIndex(_ item: QSpotlightItem) { let attributeSet = CSSearchableItemAttributeSet(contentType: .item) attributeSet.title = item.title attributeSet.displayName = item.title attributeSet.contentDescription = item.contentDescription attributeSet.keywords = item.keywords attributeSet.thumbnailData = item.thumbnailImage attributeSet.contactKeywords = item.keywords attributeSet.supportsNavigation = true let searchableItem = CSSearchableItem(uniqueIdentifier: item.id, domainIdentifier: "***", attributeSet: attributeSet) searchableItem.expirationDate = .distantFuture CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems([searchableItem]) { error in if let error = error { } else { } } }

I wrote an AppleScript that takes a bunch of scanned jpegs with systematically named filenames and transfers information from the filename into the date and time fields. That all works fine, but I've got many more scans to do and I'd like to augment the script to include a progress meter because it takes a long time to run on e.g. 1000 photos. I've found basic progress meter examples online that involves commands like: set progress total steps to theImageCount set progress completed steps to 0 set progress description to "Processing Images..." set progress additional description to "Preparing to process." and they run OK in a separate dummy test case, however I'm getting syntax errors for such commands in my renaming script because (I think) they're inside a tell application "Photos" wrapper and it looks like Photos doesn't like those commands. A progress meter (in any AppleScript) should be a straightforward thing i.e. I can clearly define a total number of steps and I can clearly define the step number I'm currently on. I just want to display something like: I'd even be OK with just implementing something like: display dialog "blah blah" but that needs to be manually dismissed with each iteration of the loop, so that's no good. I also tried: display notification "blah blah" but that yields hundreds of notification boxes at the top right of my screen, so that's also impractical. I was even thinking maybe I could call some generic system progress meter with all the right variables via a "do shell script" command (although I have no idea how to do that). Something surely must be possible, but I just can't figure it out :-(. Could some kind soul please help me out. Thanks.

I was excited to find out about Wi-Fi Aware in i[Pad]OS 26 and was eager to experiment with it. But after wiping and updating two devices (an iPhone 11 Pro and a 2018 11" iPad Pro) to Beta 1 I found out that neither of them support Wi-Fi Aware 🙁. What current and past iPhone and iPad models support Wi-Fi Aware? And is there a new UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key for it, to indicate that an app requires a Wi-Fi Aware capable device?

Hello. I took a closer look at the data I'm getting back for hourly forecasts and I'm baffled by results I'm seeing. For example, it's Dec 19, 2022 8:00am PT and I'm asking for the weather for Orchard Park NY (lat 42.766437 long -78.743855) for Dec 23, 2022. The daily forecast tells me they're expected to have 5.9" of snow. However, the hourly forecast with the most snow that day is reported as 0.071" (1.8mm). The Apple Weather app on iOS shows that hour as having 0.6". I wrote a 'for' loop to print the results of my call to WeatherService.shared.weather.         print(oneHour.precipitationAmount.formatted())         print(oneHour.precipitationAmount.description)         print(oneHour.precipitationAmount.unit)         print(oneHour.precipitationAmount.value) 0.071 in 1.8 mm <_NSStatic_NSUnitLength: 0x2010b0178> mm 1.8

I'm seeing a lot of these in my logs: PersistentIdentifier PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-swiftdata://Course/BC9CF99A-DE6A-46F1-A18D-8034255A56D8), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation) was remapped to a temporary identifier during save: PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-coredata:///Course/t58C849CD-D895-4773-BF53-3F63CF48935B210), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation). This is a fatal logic error in DefaultStore ... though everything seems to work. Does anyone know what this means in this context? Anything I can do to not have this appear?

It seems that whenever I scan the contents of ~/Library/Containers with my app, I get the warning [App] would like to access data from other apps, regardless of how often I have already allowed it. When the warning appears, the last scanned file is ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.CloudPhotosConfiguration/Data. My sample code: let openPanel = NSOpenPanel() openPanel.canChooseDirectories = true openPanel.runModal() let url = openPanel.urls[0] let enumerator = FileManager.default.enumerator(at: url, includingPropertiesForKeys: nil) while let url = enumerator?.nextObject() as? URL { print(url.path) } Is it expected that one has to allow this warning every time the app is run?

The documentation for CGColorRef (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coregraphics/cgcolorref?language=objc) clearly shows that it is a struct. However, when I try to store a cell's border color using CGColorRef originalColor = self.bg.layer.borderColor and inspect what happens in the debugger, both that property and its copy have the same address. And later when I try to restore the border color the copy still has the same address but is no longer valid and causes a crash on assignment (originalColor is actually an instance variable...) This is all object behavior, not struct behavior. If CGColorRef really was a struct, the contents would have been copied, the instance variable would have had its own address that would never have changed, and the value would have remained valid indefinitely and let me copy it back without a problem. Why is this documented wrong? Was this a recent change? I actually had this code working at some point, and now it's broken.

iOS 18 (22A3354) will not offer a option in settings (> Apps > Phone) after calling openSettings to enable live caller id lookup extension. iPhone and MacBook are in the same network. The PIRService runs on MacBook and is reachable via iPhone Safari (via http://MacBookPro:8080/). Hummingbird print log: hb_method=GET hb_uri=/ [Hummingbird] Request. After deploying the application via Xcode to the iPhone no requests are printed in the terminal. The extension was added like documented and bundle id is also checked multiple times. issuerRequestUri in service-config.json is http://MacBookPro:8080/issue. As far as I can tell, everything has been set up in accordance with the Testing Live Caller ID instructions. Is there something missing?

Our app uses a 24-hour DeviceActivityMonitor repeating schedule to send users notifications for every hour of screen time they spend on their phone per day. Notifications are sent from eventDidReachThreshold callbacks at 1, 2, 3, etc, hour thresholds to keep them aware of their screen time. We have recently received an influx of emails from our users that after updating to iOS 17.6.1 their DeviceActivityMonitor notifications are saying their screen time was much higher than what is shown in DeviceActivityReport and their device's Screen Time settings. These users have disabled "Share Across Devices" - but I suspect the DeviceActivityMonitor is still getting screen time from their other devices even though that setting is turned off. Has anybody else noticed this, understands what is causing this, or could recommend a fix that we can tell our users to do?

I like to find a way to identify network volumes, and whether they're run by certain servers, e.g. specifically whether they're on a Synology NAS. Reason is that Synology, while apparently supporting the Spotlight-over-SMB API, comes with a lot of bugs, requiring me to work around them when searching on those volumes with the macOS Spotlight API. I could, of course, ask the user to "configure" each mounted volume in my software, but I'd rather do this automagically, if possible, as it's less prone to user mistakes. So, my question is: Is there a way to learn a bit more about the server of a mounted network volume? E.g., if I could learn its IP address, I could try to connect to it via http protocol and then maybe get a useful response that identifies it as being from Synology. Or, alternatively, can I tell which SMB volumes are served by a Mac, so that I can at least assume that those handle Spotlight calls correctly, while I assume anything else is buggy (so far, AFAIK, Synology is the only other SMB server that supports Spotlight search). I've tried to find some data in the IORegistry, but that doesn't seem to store anything about network vols. The statfs function doesn't seem to give me anything for that either, nor do the various fcntl calls as far as I could tell. I also checked with the DA apis, e.g.: DASessionRef daSession = DASessionCreate (NULL); CFURLRef furl = CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath(NULL, CFSTR("/Volumes/TheNAS"), kCFURLPOSIXPathStyle, true); DADiskRef daDisk = DADiskCreateFromVolumePath (NULL, daSession, furl); if (daDisk) { CFDictionaryRef daInfo = DADiskCopyDescription (daDisk); NSLog(@"%@", daInfo); } However, this only prints basic information: DAVolumeKind = smbfs; DAVolumeMountable = 1; DAVolumeName = TheNAS; DAVolumeNetwork = 1; DAVolumePath = "file:///Volumes/TheNAS/"; Where, then, does Finder's "Get Info" get the smb path from, for example?

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 &gt; Privacy &amp; 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 don't see upload option for the App Store connect, can only export .ipa. Also having issues with Transporter, pasting error message here. Could not create a temporary .itmsp package for the app "Redacted.ipa". Unable to determine app platform for 'Undefined' software type. Is anyone else facing the same issue? I am using Xcode 15.

My question Is there a way to perform an iCloud keychain reset in order to be able to test CKErrorUserDidResetEncryptedDataKey ? I found this section in the CloudKit documentation https://developer.apple.com/documentation/cloudkit/encrypting-user-data#Handle-a-User-Keychain-Reset I want to be prepared for the zoneNotFound / CKErrorUserDidResetEncryptedDataKey case. However, I can't find a way to actually reproduce this error with an iCloud (test-) user and can't find any Apple documentation on how to perform sucha "User Keychain Reset". The only thing that almost looked like it I came across was in the Keychain.app's Settings "Reset Default Keychains…". However, performing this didn't seem to affect the CloudKit data used in our App at all. I've been trying to do this with an Apple account that has 2FA active and a recovery account assigned. We're only targetting >= iOS 18, macOS >= 15.

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing crashes that consistently occur on iOS 18 devices, which seem to share a common root cause. I'm hoping for some guidance.

The crashes are independent of the Xcode version used to build the app (tested with both Xcode 15.4 and 16). All crash traces occur in CoreFoundation and seem to have nothing related to our app codebase. I've attempted to profile the app using Instruments to identify any zombie objects, but the crashes do not manifest on my own devices. I've referred to discussions, including this forum thread, but have not yet found a solution. Questions: Has anyone else encountered similar issues on iOS 18? Are there specific aspects of iOS 18 that might contribute to these CoreFoundation and libobjc-related crashes? Would appreciate any suggestions for further diagnostics or potential workarounds. Thank you for your help!

I'm reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing issues with the Live Caller ID feature on iOS. We recently encountered a problem where the feature stopped working entirely. Here's a brief overview of the situation: We were monitoring test traffic on our backend and noticed everything came to a halt around 1:00 AM UTC on November 15th. After this time, any attempts to reach our backend through calls failed completely. I tested this across multiple devices running iOS 18.2 and iOS 18.0. I used both TestFlight builds and development builds via Xcode, which should communicate directly with our backend. I experienced the problem on our main application as well as a dedicated test app. To troubleshoot further, I even set up a local server on localhost and tried directing requests there, but the requests did not reach the local server when a call was received. Further debugging in Console.app revealed the following error: identity request returned error: Error Domain=com.apple.CipherML Code=400 "Error Domain=com.apple.CipherML Code=401 "Unable to request data by keywords batch: failed to fetch token issuer directory" However, when I manually tried to hit our server endpoint using curl, the request successfully reached the server: curl https://our_server/something hb_method=GET hb_uri=/something [Hummingbird] Request -- log on backend This suggests that while our backend is responsive, the requests from the iOS client side are simply not being initiated.

I have written the Transparent App Proxy and can capture the network flow and send it to my local server. I want to avoid any processing on the traffic outgoing from my server and establish a connection with a remote server, but instead of connecting to the remote server, it again gets captured and sent back to my local server. I am not getting any clue on how to ignore these flows originating from my server. Any pointers, API, or mechanisms that will help me?

Hey, I'm trying to update my old app that used DarkSky to WeatherKit, and struggling. I always get: ailed to generate jwt token for: com.apple.weatherkit.authservice with error: Error Domain=WeatherDaemon.WDSJWTAuthenticatorServiceListener.Errors Code=2 "(null)" This is regardless if I do it on my iPad, or in the simulator. I have done the following: Selected WeatherKit on the Capabilities and App Services tabs of the Identifier section on developer. Put it under signing and capabilities in XCode I've tried making a new provisioning profile, cleaning build folder, etc. Not sure what to do here. I suspect part of this problem is that I developed this app in 2018 and now I'm trying to update it. I am able to run the app on TestFlight, but not as an internal tester. Apple won't let me, so I have to add myself as an external tester. Thanks for any help you can provide!
