Got notification to update this certificate - there was a link to Sectigo.com where I found an attachment with that name - when I clicked it I got a box where it said to install it. Clicked the box and it was saved somewhere on my computer.
Now I dont know if that's it or I need to take further actions - please help :-)
Have no experience with this - my collegue who did this has stopped.
Hoping for a simple answer :-)

My app helps users connect to Wi-Fi networks, and I have requested the Access Wi-Fi information entitlement. This allows the app to retrieve the current Wi-Fi information to ensure the user’s connection is successful.
Now, we are trying to implement an App Clip that enables users to connect to a specific Wi-Fi network through a QR code scan or NFC in certain scenarios. In the App Clip, I’ve requested the Hotspot entitlement, which allows the app to use the hotspot manager to configure Wi-Fi networks. However, since I cannot access the current Wi-Fi information in the App Clip, I’m unable to confirm whether the connection was successful.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to use Automator to batch process PDF files. I have hundreds of academic journal article PDFs whose page sizes vary from 5x7 inches to A4 format (8.27 x 11.69 inches). I want to scale all the PDFs to US Letter size (8.5 x 11.0 inches) such that smaller originals remain 100% scale but are centered on the larger page and larger originals are scaled down to fit the page.
Manually opening a PDF in Preview.app, scaling it to US Letter paper, and using the Save as PDF option is producing the desired output for me. I captured my workflow using the Watch Me Do action in Automator, then adjusted it into the following AppleScript.
-- a Get Specified Finder Items action to specify the input PDFs precedes this script
on run {input, parameters}
repeat with filePath in input
-- Open the file in Preview
tell application "Preview"
open filePath
activate
end tell
-- Give Preview some time to open the file
delay 2.0
-- Press ⌘P
set timeoutSeconds to 0.25
set uiScript to "keystroke \"p\" using command down"
my doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
-- Click the “Scale to Fit:” radio button.
delay 2.0
set timeoutSeconds to 2.0
set uiScript to "click radio button \"Scale to Fit:\" of radio group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of scroll area 2 of splitter group 1 of sheet 1 of window 1 of application process \"Preview\""
my doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
-- Click the “<fill in title>” menu button.
delay 4.0
set timeoutSeconds to 2.000000
set uiScript to "click menu button 1 of group 2 of splitter group 1 of sheet 1 of window 1 of application process \"Preview\""
my doWithTimeout( uiScript, timeoutSeconds )
-- Save as PDF…
delay 2.0
set timeoutSeconds to 2.0
set uiScript to "click menu item 2 of menu 1 of splitter group 1 of sheet 1 of window 1 of application process \"Preview\""
my doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
-- Click the “Save” button.
delay 8.0
set timeoutSeconds to 2.0
set uiScript to "click UI Element \"Save\" of sheet 1 of sheet 1 of window 1 of application process \"Preview\""
my doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
-- Press ⌘W to close the file
delay 0.25
set timeoutSeconds to 2.0
set uiScript to "keystroke \"w\" using command down"
my doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
end repeat
return input
end run
on doWithTimeout(uiScript, timeoutSeconds)
set endDate to (current date) + timeoutSeconds
repeat
try
run script "tell application \"System Events\"
" & uiScript & "
end tell"
exit repeat
on error errorMessage
if ((current date) > endDate) then
error "Can not " & uiScript
end if
end try
end repeat
end doWithTimeout
My problem arises at the Save as PDF step. When this action runs, I see the PDF menu pop open:
but the Save as PDF... menu item doesn't get clicked. Instead, I get an error:
Can anyone advise on how to overcome this error?
I’m working with the NEHotspotHelper API in my iOS app, and I noticed the following log message in Console:
"(BUNDLE ID ) is using NEHotspotHelper API and it's unresponsive to API's evaluate command. The API gives 45 seconds to 3rd party apps to respond, and then it launches WebSheet to allow user to interact with the portal."
I have two different apps that both register a NEHotspotHelper handler:
App A checks for .evaluate and calls createResponse(.unsupportedNetwork) if we don’t manage that particular network.
App B registers for hotspot events but does not handle .evaluate at all.
In App A, whenever I see that “unresponsive” or “45 seconds” log, the system eventually launches the standard captive portal WebSheet. In App B, I never see those logs.
I have a few questions:
Are these “unresponsive” logs indeed triggered by the .evaluate command specifically?
In other words, do we only see that 45-second timeout and the subsequent WebSheet message if our app is registered to handle Evaluate but doesn’t respond quickly (or responds with .unsupportedNetwork)?
Is it best practice (or required) to always respond to .evaluate—for example, sending .unsupportedNetwork if we don’t plan on managing the user’s login or captive portal? Does ignoring .evaluate lead to other unexpected behavior or logs?
Should we still explicitly respond to Evaluate with .unsupportedNetwork? Or is it okay to skip Evaluate handling entirely on every app or invocation?
I’d love to confirm whether .evaluate handling is the direct cause of these logs, and how best to avoid the “unresponsive”/“45 seconds” fallback if our app isn’t intended to manage the portal.
Thanks in advance for any insights!

I received an update to the APN root certificate. Testing the connection using MDM.pem to the push environment returned the following error:BadCertificateEnvironment
ERROR
I am sending push notifications on iOS, and I can receive and display them correctly. I want to be able to dismiss notifications that have been read server-side (e.g. on a different device) so I am trying to send a custom notification payload alongside a badge counter update, that specifies what notification IDs to remove. I then use removeDeliveredNotifications on the IDs I get. However, it doesn't seem to be working. I am setting the identifier using the apns-collapse-id header and I do see that reflected on the device side. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
This is how I'm handling push notifications:
func userNotificationCenter(
_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter,
willPresent notification: UNNotification,
withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void
) {
let customPayload = notification.request.content.userInfo
if let dismissedNotifications = customPayload["dismissed_notifications"] as? [String] {
center.removeDeliveredNotifications(withIdentifiers: dismissedNotifications)
}
completionHandler([.banner, .sound, .badge])
}
I also tried doing the same thing inside
func userNotificationCenter(
_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter,
didReceive response: UNNotificationResponse,
withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void
)
Thank you!

We have encountered an issue with the app where it fails to progress beyond the splash screen. Interestingly, the problem seems to resolve itself after either reinstalling the app or restarting the phone. This behavior is observed specifically in version 18.3.1.
Could this issue be related to a network connection or initialization problem in this version? Any insights or recommendations would be appreciated.
Thank you for your assistance!
Hi there, I'm having an issue hoping someone could help. We have an iOS app that uses CoreBluetooth to connect to peripherals using the central manager. The app works great - However, when using the same exact central manager for our watchos app, it will attempt to connect, but I never get a callback for either didConnect or didFailToConnect.
The watch can connect successfully to other BLE devices, so the watch itself is capable of BLE connectivity.
Here's a list of thing's I've tried (unsuccessfully):
1) Added every bluetooth-related entitlement to info.plist
Privacy - Bluetooth Always Usage Description
Privacy - Bluetooth Peripheral Usage Description
Background Modes: App communicates using CoreBluetooth, App shares data using CoreBluetooth
2) Checked for Single-Connection Limits
Verified that the iPhone was fully disconnected from the peripheral to ensure the device wasn’t limited to one connection.
Attempted to connect on watchOS alone (with iPhone turned off)
3) Tried various options for CBCentralManager, scanForPeripherals, and connect
I went through all the keys for various options and tried just setting them, they had no effect
CBCentralManagerOptionShowPowerAlertKey, CBConnectPeripheralOptionEnableTransportBridgingKey
Item 2
4) Tried .registerForConnectionEvents()
5) Set peripheral's delegate to the central in the didDiscover, stored it in a variable to ensure a strong reference to it
I get no warnings either. The last time I ran into something like this, I found out the watchOS blocks TCP sockets. If I print out the CBPeripheralState a few seconds after trying to connect, it shows its stuck on CBPeripheralStateConnecting.
Any advice or direction is greatly appreciated

Hi, I have an iPhone/watch app that measures walking/running distance. It starts a workout session records data successfully into healthkit and then ends the workout session. I can see the data in the Health app from my app and it all appears to be correct. The issue I'm having is that the Health app doesn't use my app's data in its total distance for the day. For example, I can add 1 mile of fake data (I know that's not allowed per policy) for testing and it gets successfully added but not used in the total. The health app is only using distances collected by the watch and the phone for calculating the total distance for the day and is ignoring the distance provided by my app. What could I be missing?

I have been working on adding a badge number count to my app, but have run into a really weird edge case. If I have a badge number on my app, delete the application and then re-install it, the badge number still persists on the app icon until I first open the app. I tried looking to see if there is a lifecycle method that is triggered upon uninstalling an app as well as if there is a specific userDefaults attribute to check in order to clear the badge, but I can't find any clear solutions. Does anyone know of a fix to this issue?
Hi,
I have received the following report after app termination. I have researched online but cannot determine the root cause. Any tips or ideas would help please.
Could it be Location Services, UserNotification Services, or Network Requests?
Thank you,

I'm having trouble displaying the Apple Wallet pass logo on iOS 18 when a notification occurs. It works on iOS 17 but not on iOS 18 (tested on versions 18.1 and 18.3).
I ensured the Wallet pass icon sizes are correct:

Questions:
Has Apple changed any requirements for displaying Wallet pass logos in iOS 18?
Are there new size, format, or metadata constraints?
What is the idiomatic way to use a ModelContext in a document based SwiftData app from a background thread?
The relevant DocumentGroup initializers do not give us direct access to a ModelContainer, only to a ModelContext.
Is it safe to take its modelContext.container and pass it around (for creating a ModelContext on it on a background thread) or to construct a ModelActor with it? Is it safe to e.g. put a ModelActor so created into the environment of the root view of the window and execute various async data operations on it in Tasks throughout the app, as long as these are dispatched from within the window whose root view's ModelContext was used for getting the ModelContainer?
I am testing the subscription flow in my iOS app. Initially, everything was working fine when following the official StoreKit and sandbox testing documentation. After a successful subscription, the “You’re all set” popup always displayed the environment as “sandbox.” However, after some changes, possibly upgrading macOS to the latest version, upgrading Xcode, or regenerating certificates, I can no longer connect to the sandbox testing environment. The subscription success popup now always shows the environment as “xcode.”
By default, the iOS app should run in the sandbox on macOS, so I didn’t set the “Enable App Sandbox” option to “Yes” in the Xcode build settings. When I try enabling it, Xcode throws the following error:
“Failed to verify code signature of /var/installd/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.n3J0tr/extracted/Payload/XXXX.app : 0xe8008015 (A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found.) Please ensure that your app is signed by a valid provisioning profile.”
Additionally, if “Enable App Sandbox” is set to “No,” the app installs successfully on a real device, but there is no prompt to trust an untrusted developer certificate, which usually appears for such certificates.
I’m not sure if this information will be useful to others, but I’ve been stuck on this issue for a while, and it’s preventing me from moving forward with my work. Any help to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Phenomenon
We've found operator new/delete override in iOS app, only works for the first time when the app launches on iOS16, operator override is not working in the second and subsequent launch of the same app.
Steps to reproduce
Development environment: XCode 16.2
Create a new iOS Objective-C project in XCode
In the project options page, choose the following settings:
Name the project: OverrideNew
Interface: Storyboard
Language: Objective-C
Testing System: None
Add test code
Change AppDelegate.m's file name to AppDelegate.mm to add the following C++ test code.
Add the following code after #import "AppDelegate.h"
#include <os/log.h>
#include <string>
static bool needLog = false;
void* operator new(size_t size) {
void* ptr = malloc(size);
if(needLog) {
// Log to prove override new works
os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Overrided new called. ptr: %p\n", ptr);
}
return ptr;
}
void operator delete(void* ptr) noexcept {
free(ptr);
if(needLog) {
// Log to prove override delete works
os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Overrided delete called. ptr: %p\n", ptr);
}
}
void StringConstructTest(void) {
needLog = true;
os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Enter StringConstructTest1\n");
{
std::string str;
// a long string will trigger memory allocation on heap
str = "Hello world and this is a long string.\n";
os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "%{public}s\n", str.c_str());
}
os_log_error(OS_LOG_DEFAULT, "Exit StringConstructTest1\n");
needLog = false;
}
Call StringConstructTest() in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
StringConstructTest();
return YES;
}
Change build settings
Change Minimum Deployments: iOS 16.
Build and run the project on an iOS16 device, emulator can not reproduce the problem.
Observe logs in Console app on Mac
Use the following log filters:
message type: error
process: OverrideNew
First launch
First launch on device(not from a XCode debug launch), the log is:
Enter StringConstructTest1
Overrided new called. ptr: 0x281f2f450
Hello world and this is a long string.
Overrided delete called. ptr: 0x281f2f450
Exit StringConstructTest1
"Overrided new called" proved the override new operator is called.
Second and subsequence launch
Second and subsequence launch on device(not from a XCode debug launch), the log is:
Enter StringConstructTest1
Hello world and this is a long string.
Exit StringConstructTest1
No log for "Overrided new called", the subsequence launch, the override operator new is not called anymore.
Expected behavior
For every app launch, log "Overrided new called" will happen and operator override works.
On iOS16, operator override only works for the first launch.
I've also tested on iOS18, operator override works every time as expected.
Question
Is there a way to force operator override works every time on iOS16?
I am working on developing a client to complete 8021.x wireless authentication by python.
According to the CoreWLAN Documentation scanForNetworks(withName:), I'm going to use scanForNetworksWithName_error_ and associateToEnterpriseNetwork_identity_username_password_error_ provided in CoreWLAN. And I wrote a script to have a try.
import os
import pwd
from CoreWLAN import CWWiFiClient
from Foundation import NSString
def get_real_user():
sudo_user = os.environ.get('SUDO_USER')
if sudo_user:
return sudo_user
return os.environ.get('USER', 'root')
def run_as_user(username):
if os.geteuid() == 0:
uid = pwd.getpwnam(username).pw_uid
gid = pwd.getpwnam(username).pw_gid
os.setuid(uid)
def connect_to_enterprise_network(ssid, username, password):
try:
real_user = get_real_user()
if os.geteuid() == 0:
run_as_user(real_user)
client = CWWiFiClient.sharedWiFiClient()
interface = client.interface()
if not interface:
print("no interface")
return False
print("scaning...")
error = None
scan_result, error = interface.scanForNetworksWithName_error_(ssid, None)
if error:
print(f"scan fialed: {error.localizedDescription()}")
return False
target_network = None
for network in scan_result.allObjects():
if network.ssid() == ssid:
target_network = network
break
if not target_network:
print("no target network")
return False
success, error = interface.associateToEnterpriseNetwork_identity_username_password_error_(
target_network,
None,
NSString.stringWithString_(username),
NSString.stringWithString_(password),
None
)
if not success:
print(f"connect failed: {error.localizedDescription() if error else 'unknown error'}")
return False
print("connect successfully")
return True
except Exception as e:
print(f"exception: {str(e)}")
return False
if __name__ == "__main__":
ssid = "ssid"
username = "username"
password = "password"
success = connect_to_enterprise_network(ssid, username, password)
However, I can only execute this script normally under non-root permissions. When I switch to root and execute it, the variable "scan_result.allObjects()" will be an object without any ssid and bssid. Finally the function prints "no target network" and returned.
<CWNetwork: 0x107104080> [ssid=(null), bssid=(null), security=WPA2 Enterprise, rssi=-52, channel=<CWChannel: 0x11e8a1fd0> [channelNumber=44(5GHz), channelWidth={20MHz}], ibss=0]
Compared with the value without sudo:
[<CWNetwork: 0x144650580> [ssid=ssid, bssid=<redacted>, security=WPA2 Enterprise, rssi=-55, channel=<CWChannel: 0x1247040d0> [channelNumber=149(5GHz), channelWidth={20MHz}], ibss=0]]
My python code will be included in an app that must be executed as a root user, so this issue can't be ignored and waiting for your help. THANKS!
Context: We are using NWConnection for UDP and TCP Connections, and wanted to know the best way to keep the number of pending send completions in control to limit resource usage
Questions:
Is there a way to control the send rate, such that too many 'send pending completion' does not get queued. Say if I do a ‘extremely dense flurry of 10 million NWConnection.send’ will all go asynchronous without any complications? Or I would be informed once it reaches some threshold.
Or no? And is it the responsibility of the application using NWConnection.send to limit the outstanding completion , as if they were beyond a certain limit, it would have an impact on outstanding and subsequent requests?
If so – how would one know ‘what is supposed to be the limit’ at runtime? Is this a process level or system level limit.
Will errors like EAGAIN and ETIMEOUT ever will be reported. In the test I simulated, where the TCP Server was made to not do receive, causing the 'socket send buffer' to become full on the sender side. On the sender side my send stopped getting complete, and became pending. Millions of sends were pending for long duration, hence wanted to know if we will ever get EAGAIN or ETIMEOUT.
I am having difficulty getting my container app with an embedded endpoint security extension to work on a virtual Mac.
My virtual Mac has system integrity protection turned off. I have used spctl and System Settings to allow applications from anywhere.
I am using the development entitlement profile to sign my container app.
When I run my app, it crashes with Termination Reason: COODESIGNING 1 Taskgated Invalid Signature. I assume this has to do with the app being signed with my developer profile that contains a list of Macs that can run the software.
How can test my endpoint security extension on a virtual Mac?
I was importing the app's information based on the document below.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/getting-app-and-book-information-legacy
However, I have failed to get the information of the custom app from a few days ago.
The result is empty.
This is a request with an empty result.

In ABM/ASM, you can see my assets and both the quantity in use and the quantity available will be searched normally.
Is there anything else I can check?
Please reply.
Thank you.
