Hello,
Thank you for your message.
Regarding 3.2, we still find that your app is intended to be used by a specific business or organization, including partners, clients, or employees, but you've selected public distribution on the App Store in App Store Connect.
To resolve this issue, it would be appropriate to review the other distribution options available for apps designed for specific businesses or organizations and choose a distribution option that works for your app and users. You can review these app distribution options on Apple Developer.
I appreciate the help to get out of this inconvenience. Thank you.

Hello guys,
I wanted to reach out to see if any of you have experienced or come across an issue we are facing in our organization. We are encountering a campus-wide problem where Macs are take an unusually long time to delete files on external drives formatted with ExFAT.
We manage these Macs through Jamf Pro, and numerous policies are applied when the devices are enrolled. We have tested the issue in both scenarios—when the Macs are connected to the domain and when they are not—and the slow deletion persists in both cases.
At this point, we are unsure whether the issue lies on our end or if it is related to the operating system itself. If anyone has found a fix or workaround for this problem, we would appreciate your input.
Recently, we have encountered some users who have been unable to open the enterprise signature application after upgrading to version 18.3.2, without an IPS file. Through system logs, we found that signature verification has occurred SecKeyVerifySignature failed: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-50 "rsa_pub_crypt failed, ccerr=-7" UserInfo={numberOfErrorsDeep=0, NSDescription=rsa_pub_crypt failed, ccerr=-7} Waiting for the information, I will provide the obtained system logs below. The application package name that crashed is com. mobile. moa

Hello,
I've noticed some unexpected behavior when updating a user's FileVault password.
The set up:
All actions are performed in virtualized macOS 14 and 15.5 guests on a 15.5 Apple Silicon host.
FileVault is enabled.
sjsp is a standard user with a Secure Token.
The Mac is bound to AD, and the domain is reachable.
Reproduction:
systemctl -secureTokenStatus sjsp shows it's ENABLED.
fdesetup remove -user sjsp
fdesetup add -usertoadd sjsp
systemctl -secureTokenStatus sjsp shows it's DISABLED.
Surprisingly, sjsp is still able to unlock FileVault.
Looking at unified logs for opendirectoryd and fdesetup, I see that a password change is being attempted in response to fdesetup add, which is unexpected.

If I disconnect the network and follow the reproduction steps then the Secure Token is retained. Reconnecting and waiting a while doesn't cause the Secure Token to be lost. There are no log entries about attempting to change the password.
Any help or explanation would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
Hello everyone,
I recently changed the phone number associated with my Apple ID (about 4 days ago), but I’m still receiving the two-factor authentication verification codes on my old number instead of the new one.
Has anyone experienced this? Is there a delay on Apple’s side, or is there something else I need to do to complete the update?
We are trying the renewal the apple Enterprise program. It asks set of questions after that it shows the below message
"Thank you for your request to renew your membership in the Apple Developer Enterprise Program. We’ll review your submission and get back to you shortly to let you know if we can process the renewal or if another program better serves your organization’s needs."
We have submitted for review for over two months now. During these two months, we have contacted the official customer service multiple times, only to be told to wait for news. Now, with only a few days left, The status hasn't changed, neither approved nor rejected,what should we do?This account is very important to our company. Thank you

The question:
Is there any chance that Apple will integrate Intune SDK into Apple apps such as Mail or Calendar, or create Siri-compatible Intune SDK-integrated versions of Mail and Calendar?
The reason for the question:
My team has been asked by VIPs in our company (e.g. execs and board members) if Siri can be used with Outlook, and the only way is through Shortcuts or by adding the Outlook account to Mail.
Both of these options would violate our security policies for these reasons:
Since our company policy and federal regulations don't permit us to allow access to company resources on non-MAM-protected apps, we can't allow our users to login to the Mail app and make full use of Siri, due to the lack of MAM controls for Mail and Calendar.
We only allow users to transfer data between policy-managed apps which have integrated the Intune SDK allowing us to enforce DLP and other security measures. The only way to enable Shortcuts would be to disable these security measures.

Hello, I am Sergio Sánchez, administrator of NumbuX.
We are developing our own MDM. We are already granted as a MDM Vendor.
We need to issue the APNs certificate for our MDM for the first time in the Push Certificate portal (identity.apple.com).
We are having the error: “invalid signing request” when we upload the signed CSR to identity.apple.com. That is because we do not have the External UUID.
Could you please let us know what is our External UUID? Without that, we cannot upload it successfully.
We have already compared different signed CSR from other MDM Vendors and all have included the External UUID in the CSR.
Please, do not send links, there is not way for us to know our External UUID because it is the first time that we try to issue this APNs. After the first time, we do not need your assitance.
Please, let us know our External UUID.
Thank you.
Kind regards.

We have an office application used internally within our enterprise. The Provisioning Profiles (PP) for the app were about to expire, so we updated the PP and released a new version. However, we've encountered an issue where some users did not update their phones in time. After the app expired, they found it unusable and downloaded the new version, but the newly downloaded app also crashes on launch. Restarting the phone does not resolve the issue, and this primarily occurs on iOS 18.3.2. What could be the cause of this problem, and how should we address it?

The issue is with all our enterprise apps. All apps worked on version 18.1. For the few users that updated to 18.2.1 it stopped working after the update.
I have a phone that had 18.2.1 installed before I added any enterprise apps, they work fine.
So the issue is you have enterprise apps, update from 18.1 to 18.2.1 they stop working. Removing the app (and trust), and installing again doesn't solve the issue. On the app reinstall it's doesn't ask to add the trust or reboot, but the trust is added back.
When running the app, it opens for a second or two, then closes.
I am creating a prototype with the new Screen Time API introduced by Apple. The issue I am facing is, Applications installed in child device is not showing in parent device with FamilyActivityPicker. It is showing in Child device and apps can be shielded from child's device. Can some one describe, how to list the apps in parent's device.
Both Device are running in iOS 15.3.
Both falls in same family group
Child is under 13 yrs old
Screen Time enabled in both device and parent device can see child in Screen Time.

We are encountering a critical issue where an enterprise-signed iOS app crashes immediately after installation on devices running iOS 18.3.2 (22D82). The same app runs fine on other iOS versions (including iOS 18.3.1 and earlier).
Issue Summary:
After upgrading to iOS 18.3.2, users are unable to launch our enterprise app (Bundle ID: com.kt.MobileDRM).
The app installs successfully but crashes immediately upon launch.
This issue occurs only on iOS 18.3.2, not on earlier versions or other iPadOS/iOS devices.
System Log Snippet:
SecKeyVerifySignature failed: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-50
"rsa_pub_crypt failed, ccerr=-7"
UserInfo={numberOfErrorsDeep=0, NSDescription=rsa_pub_crypt failed, ccerr=-7}
Additional Info:
The app is signed with a valid enterprise certificate.
No changes were made to the app binary or signing configuration before this issue started.
We are not using an IPS file.
A similar app (different bundle ID) shows the same behavior on iPadOS 18.3.2 but runs fine on other versions.
Questions:
Has there been a change in iOS 18.3.2 that affects enterprise certificate validation?
Does ccerr=-7 indicate a cryptographic change or stricter signature verification?
Are there updated requirements or provisioning profile constraints we should be aware of for iOS 18.3.2?
We would greatly appreciate any insights or official guidance regarding this issue. Thank you!

Hi,
I run a midsize business. Apple recommends for company owned devices and for other reasons to use Apple Business managed Apple IDs for the employees. After that, you have to use a MDM System for e.g. deploying apps and licenses.
Testflight is an app that can be deployed too. But....Testflight can not more than to say "Hello" on a managed device. The use of Testflight and to test our developed apps is not possible with a managed ID.
Can anyone explain to me this thinking or what is recommended than. Setting up a private Apple ID for that purpose...which on the other hand, Apple do not want or does not recommend.
