I’m new to Mac packaging, and am confused by the multi-part signing and packaging process.
I have built an app, using third party software, that I would like to upload to the Mac store for trial/testing purposes.
I have joined the Apple Developers Programme, but am unsure whether I need to invest in third-party certification (e.g. Verisign) or can self-certify my app package.
I would be obliged if someone would outline the sequence of steps that I need to follow to create a package that can be offered to users, and confirm whether my AD License is sufficient for me to follow same.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Regards,

I've been getting a notarization error for about a month and it's not resolved. (Case ID:
102252824962)
The error message I received is as I wrote in the title: "Team is not yet configured for notarization". when I contact the support team by phone, they say that this error message is not correct and that there is no problem with my individual account.
When i contacted the support team by phone, their only answer is that "Your case has been escalated to the engineers, and they’re working on it."
By the way, the support team never even responds to my email support requests.
The application I wrote is very very small and simple, I don't understand why it is taking so long to be analyzed and why the support team can't give any explanation?
I started the notarization process last night with the following command
xcrun notarytool submit --wait --keychain-profile "Developer ID Application: ..." --verbose Open\ Interface.zip
When I check its status, it still shows as it's in progress over 16 hours later
xcrun notarytool history --keychain-profile "Developer ID Application: ..."
Successfully received submission history.

Does anyone know what might be going wrong?

Thanks!
Hey all. I "Archived" my XCode application, notarized through XCode, exported the .app and used a program create-dmg to generate a DMG for me. I then notarized this using the xcrun notarytool submit Lyric\ Fever\ 1.7.dmg --keychain-profile "notarytoolProfile" command as well as xcrun stapler staple Lyric\ Fever\ 1.7.dmg, both of which passed.
Running syspolicy_check distribution also passes. So does xcrun stapler validate.
This dmg still fails when testing using spctl. spctl -a -t open -vvv --context context:primary-signature Lyric\ Fever\ 1.7.dmg generates the following error:
Lyric Fever 1.7.dmg: rejected
origin=Apple Development: Avi Wadhwa (#######)
Furthermore, I uploaded this dmg to github and redownloaded it. This newly downloaded dmg does not open in finder, prompting the "unidentifier developer, malware" message.
Yet xcrun stapler validate passes, and so does syspolicy_check distribution. I know as per Eskimo's previous posts that this is not the ideal way to test notarization (and setting a macOS vm is the best method), but if I cannot download my own dmg from GitHub then something is clearly wrong.
It seems like something changed in the notarization in the last few days. I'm running the same build script that creates and notarize a DMG that contains a PKG with 4 plugins. Everything is signed correctly. No error anywhere in the notarization process.
Checking the status of the notarization, I get this:
Status: success
Status Code: 0
Status Message: Package Approved
Stapling returns this:
The staple and validate action worked!
Yet, if I check the PKG inside with this command:
spctl -a -vvv -t install
I get this output:
.pkg: rejected
source=Unnotarized Developer ID
origin=Developer ID Installer: My Company
This project was perfectly working a few weeks ago, and we have not changed a thing. Checking the notarization log, the only issue I see is this:
"issues": [
{
"severity": "warning",
"code": null,
"path": "Archive.dmg/Installer.pkg",
"message": "This archive is corrupt, and cannot be unpacked for analysis.",
"docUrl": null,
"architecture": null
}
]
But this warning is also present in past DMG/PKG thatare notarized and work as they should.
Another difference from previous logs is that I can only see one item in ticketContents, which is the DMG, while previously I could see two, both the DMG and the PKG.
I'm trying to notarize an Objective-C app I've written in Xcode 15. However, when I archive the app, it is listed as a "Generic Xcode Archive" instead of an "app archive", so it can't be validated/distributed.
I've tried following all the steps in this article: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3110-resolving-generic-xcode-archive-issue
My skip_install is set to NO. My app's dependencies don't show up under "Targets" so I couldn't check the skip_install setting for them. My linked libraries don't use a headers build phase. My install_path is set to $(LOCAL_APPS_DIR).
Why am I not getting an "app archive"?
I have recently upgraded to macOS 14 and Xcode 15. I gather codesign --deep no longer works.
Do I have to explicitly codesign every file in my .app? There are several hundreds of them.
Also, I am able to successfully codesign my executable (MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyExecutable), but when I upload for Notarization, it fails with "The signature of the binary is invalid.", identifying the executable specifically.
This used to work fine. Why is it failing now?
The notarytool service seems to be down, but "Developer ID Notarization Service" is green in the system-status. If I try to submit a DMG for notorization or even just try to get the history it gives this response:
Error: internalError(statusCode: Optional(500), strData: nil, jsonData: Optional(["errors": <__NSSingleObjectArrayI 0x60000331d020>(

code = "UNEXPECTED_ERROR";
detail = "<null>";
id = 7S3TTC4N54UMTGOEMVREFQPSNE;
links = "<null>";
status = 500;
title = "Uncaught server exception";
}
)
, "statusCode": 500])) Please try again at a later time.
Everything worked a couple weeks ago
We have developed an application in which we have a main application and there are several loadable bundles which are loaded from within the main application.
We archive the main application and generate the .app file. When we run the app, everything works fine and it loads the bundles.
But when notarise the main application, it stops loading the bundles. We think we will need to notarise the bundles as well but not able to find the ways to do it.
Any help will be very appreciated.
I am bundling my app in a .dmg that I made.
I signed it, notarized it and stapled it.
When I install it on a friends Mac, I get the error message,"
This error may occur if something went wrong when authenticating using Sign in with Apple
Error Code 1000 for Sign in with Apple refers to an unknown error that occurred authenticating your Apple ID. Please make sure that you have Two-Factor authentication enabled for your Apple ID.
Is this because his Apple ID has not got two factor enabled, or because my Dev account does not?
I read somewhere that two factor must be enabled for latest versions of Macs, but again, is this my Apple Dev ID, or their's?
I seems like a pretty common issue but i'll make a post about it specifically for what i'm seeing. Its my first time notarizing an app so maybe its something in my config, but i'm not seeing any errors.
For simplicity I cloned, built and signed the sample Electron Forge app following the steps on https://www.electronforge.io/ "Getting Started". The build zip is 90MB so its not that large. My production application will be DMG, but even that is stuck (Maybe because the zips before it are currently stuck)
Trying to manually notarize via notarytool just hangs. I used xcrun notarytool submit <Package> --keychain-profile "NotaryProfile" --wait
Running xcrun notarytool history --keychain-profile "NotaryProfile" outputs the following.

I tried to pull logs by calling xcrun notarytool log --keychain-profile "NotaryProfile" aa6e9df3-ef62-4058-8bcc-683f015b412a but it seems like non exist yet.
Submission log is not yet available or submissionId does not exist

Not sure whats going on, but its pretty far off from the time estimate of 5 - 45 minutes.
Any help is appreciated.
NotaryTool version is 1.0.0 (28)
IMPORTANT altool is deprecated for the purposes of notarisation and will stop working on 1 Nov 2023 [1]. If you’re currently notarising with altool, switch to notarytool now. For specific advice on how to do this, see TN3147 Migrating to the latest notarization tool.

I'm trying to notarize an Objective-C app I've written in Xcode 15. I've mostly been following this guide: https://scriptingosx.com/2021/07/notarize-a-command-line-tool-with-notarytool/.
I got the Developer ID Application and Developer ID Installer certificates from Apple developer. I made sure hardened runtime was on in Xcode and chose Developer ID Application under the signing settings before archiving and exporting. After setting up my notarytool profile, I used "xcrun notarytool submit" to submit for notarization.
This first attempt went over 24 hours and still said "In Progress" so I cancelled it.
For my second attempt I built an installer pkg for my app signed with my Developer ID Installer certificate. I submitted this for notarization with "xcrun notarytool submit" and after over 24 hours of "in progress' it returned "the request timed out".
What am I doing wrong in the sign/notarize process?
I tried to submit my app via the Notary Service with this command:
xcrun notarytool submit "${DMG_DIR}/${DMG_NAME}" --key "${APP_STORE_API_KEY}" --key-id "${KEY}" --issuer "${ISSUER}" --verbose
and I called the API to get the status of the submission, and it said it was rejected without any meta data.
I did codesign the app with this command:
codesign --force --timestamp --deep --sign "Developer ID Application: MY_NAME" "${DMG_DIR}/${DMG_NAME}"
Verify it with this command:
codesign -vvv --deep --strict "${DMG_DIR}/${DMG_NAME}"
The verification response:
/Users/runner/work/1/a/cli/osx-x64/{DMGFILE}.dmg: valid on disk
/Users/runner/work/1/a/cli/osx-x64/{DMGFILE}.dmg: satisfies its Designated Requirement

I wonder if I missed any steps.
Thank you for the help.
I am working on an open source app. I have been testing the package installer, and something unexpected is happening: the .pkg won't run on my test machine and will instead show a banner saying "myApp.app can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software"; nevertheless, if I wait some minutes, the installer will run just fine!
After reading through many of ekimo's posts, I assumed it may have something to do with stapler. I was not stapling my .dmg originally, so that's something I may be missing (my app is installed by a .pkg inside a .dmg). Nevertheless, the computer where I am testing the app has internet connection, meaning stapler should not even come into play.
Regardless, I decided to staple my .dmg. Running xcrun stapler staple -v myApp.dmg after notarizing produces this result:

Hello! I'm dealing with a strange code signing issue which is preventing me from distributing a game through Steam. I'm able to sign and notarise the app in Xcode without any issues. I can verify that the app and all frameworks in /Contents/Frameworks/ are signed, and Gatekeeper allows the app to run without complaining.

However, if I zip the app and upload it to Steam, the app that the Steam client downloads is blocked by Gatekeeper ("damaged and can't be opened") and re-running the above commands shows that the code signing seal has been broken somehow on the downloaded app:
$ spctl --assess -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app: cannot find code object on disk
$ codesign --verify -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app: code object is not signed at all
In subcomponent: /Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/love.framework
The second command can be re-run, showing a seemingly random framework from /Contents/Frameworks/ each time e.g.
$ codesign --verify -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app: code object is not signed at all
In subcomponent: /Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework
Further investigation shows that these frameworks are now unsigned, when they were signed before uploading and downloading:
$ codesign --verify -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework: code object is not signed at all
$ codesign --verify -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/love.framework
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/BadApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/love.framework: code object is not signed at all
...
$ codesign --verify -vvv ~/Temp/CodeSigningTest/GoodApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/GoodApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework: valid on disk
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/GoodApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/ogg.framework: satisfies its Designated Requirement

/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/GoodApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/love.framework: valid on disk
/Users/ruairi/Temp/CodeSigningTest/GoodApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/love.framework: satisfies its Designated Requirement
I'm stumped as to what's happening here. Is is possible that the app is being modified being the scenes by Steam, which breaks the code signing? This seems unfathomable because it would surely break code signing on every Mac game on Steam, but I really can't understand what else would be going on. I'm sure I need to expand my knowledge on code signing; any pointers, suggestions or assistance is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Recently, I completed development on an app that I hope to upload to Kickstarter.
I am unsure whether Apple Developer Program Membership incorporates signage and notarization fees.
In short, to package my app, will I need to find $99, or $300?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

hi, team,
we used the py2app to build the mac app, the app works well before the codesign.
But when I codesign it with the --options runtime the app can't startup.
with the below error:

I am looking forward to your insightful reply.
I am facing a problem in electron's apps notarisations. I have submitted my NodeJS code and the validations takes a long time.
Hope, anyone can clarify why it takes so long.
Hello,
I'm running into an issue when code signing my .app file on macOS. After introducing the --entitlements flag, I'm encountering an error that prevents the app from launching:
Error Messages:
App UI: "Cannot open the file"
Terminal (using open file.app)
The application cannot be opened for an unexpected reason, error=Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=5 "Launch failed." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Launch failed., NSUnderlyingError=0x60000216d620 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=153 "Unknown error: 153" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Launchd job spawn failed}}}
Troubleshooting Details:
Without code signing, the app launches and permission pop-ups function correctly (the file tauri generates).
With code signing (but without --entitlements), the app launches but there are no permission pop-ups.
All scenarios (without signing, with signing, with signing + --entitlements) all have Info.plist in the /Contents of the .app file
Notarizing and stapling works fine when I do not include the --entitlements flag when signing.
Code for signing with entitlements:
codesign --timestamp --sign "Developer ID Application: ()" --options=runtime --entitlements ./src-tauri/Info.plist "${APP_FILE}"
