Hello, We use GitHub actions to build, sign and notarize our app. Everything was working fine, but lately the notarization has been failing almost every time. Only about 10% of attempts are successful. We haven't made any changes to the signing and notarizing processes. Here is command we use xcrun notarytool submit app.zip --wait --apple-id *** --team-id *** --password *** > notarization_output.txt Here is the error /Users/runner/work/_temp/c0b6c8e4-86d1-4307-af86-43666fcf39c7.sh: line 1: 3158 Bus error: 10 xcrun notarytool submit app.zip --wait --apple-id *** --team-id *** --password *** > notarization_output.txt

My app has been attempting to notarize for almost 3 hours now. The status page shows everything is ok: https://developer.apple.com/system-status/ Anyone else experiencing this? Anything I can do to expedite the process? xcrun notarytool history Successfully received submission history. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-12-29T01:20:45.358Z id: 449ebcdd-60eb-41e3-87a7-8107fe6276c3 name: Scourhead.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-12-29T00:51:10.641Z id: 0054eebd-ddcc-4eb3-928f-86ce2182dbfe name: Scourhead.zip status: In Progress

Hi there, I've developed a macOS app in Swift and SwiftUI. I'm planning to distribute the app outside of the App Store, so I'm currently getting it notarized. This is my first time notarizing an application. My application is signed correctly during the build / archive process, but whether I try to notarize the .app via Xcode's organizer or a .dmg via notarytool, it seems to get stuck. The status of Notarization attempts have been been stuck "In Progress", with the earliest attempt approaching 4 days. Below is the output of xcrun notary tool history Successfully received submission history. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-01T08:25:21.033Z id: be860d89-9edd-4330-9358-aa3766772041 name: Sidekick.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-12-31T17:08:37.493Z id: 9cbd609e-d287-4217-afe3-362386159805 name: Sidekick-beta.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-12-31T15:35:11.609Z id: 3e22c207-e156-410d-a0d1-24a587bfdca6 name: Sidekick.zip status: In Progress I've been searching for similar issues on the developer forums, and while others have warned about long wait times for first-time notarization requests, I've never come across anyone else who had to wait 4 days.

I have multiple submissions for an app notarization. The goal is to distribute the DMG on my website rather than the app store (which I also have a submission in review for). These are the notarization logs: -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-06-23T20:26:46.597Z id: 75972c58-bc83-44a9-b3af-4aff1b1839c3 name: Mira-Assist-Fresh.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-06-23T17:53:11.825Z id: 4bccdfb6-6663-41d3-89bc-c0a15fbdd4b8 name: Mira Assist.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-06-23T17:45:10.342Z id: fedca538-7619-4a7f-bcc8-3199d6e4b1a6 name: Mira-Assist-1.0.0-Hardened.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-06-23T02:51:04.289Z id: 19a866b9-e664-4641-b137-6ac852c14ac9 name: Mira Assist-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-06-23T02:44:25.372Z id: 455209e5-91dd-4324-aac0-d582f88efc95 name: Mira Assist-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress The earliest of which occured more than 18 hours ago. This is my first time submitting an app for notarization. I also have a developer account that was created ~1-2 days ago.

Hello! I've been facing an issue with notarizing a macOS app with an Enterprise API Key. Due to some misunderstanding setting up the project some years ago, the notarization step was using a developer's accounts API Key. I am looking to fix it to have everything centralized in the Enterprise account we work with, but I get "Debug [JWT] Generating new JWT for key ID" with the new key. This is using the xcrun notarytool directly to get more input. Using Fastlane it fails as: Error polling for notarization info: [11:29:25]: unexpected token at '' The project is deployed via MDM, so we need it to prevent the security warning. I used this documentation to create the key: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/enterpriseprogramapi/creating-api-keys-for-enterprise-program-api I have tried a Developer and an Admin access key, and the Account Holder has also created an Admin key but the errors keep the same. I just updated my Fastlane script to use the new key with the updated values. The old developer account key still works. I am not sure if I am missing any steps in the documentation or if this is not achievable. Important to add that all the profiles and certificates were already set up properly in the Enterprise account, the only error was using an App Store Connect Key instead of an Enterprise Key. Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm having issues with notarizing my Electron app using electron-builder. The build process works, but notarization gets hung up on submitting to Apple.

A few hours ago, it took 3 minutes to get the notarization phase of our build done... now I've got one that's been running for 25 minutes and hasn't finished yet. The last time this happened, the waits got up to multiple hours, and the status page didn't get updated.

We're having failures reported back to us from the notarization service as of the 4th of September. It's complaining about binaries inside .jar files, saying some aren't signed and others aren't signed with a valid developer certificate. These are third party jars; we unzip the unsigned binaries from these jars, sign them then put them back in using "jar -ufv". Notarizing is only complaining about binaries inside jars and not anything else, which implies our certificates are valid. Nothing has changed regarding these jars between the notarizing service accepting and rejecting our app. To confirm our suspicions that the notarizing service may be behaving differently, we sent it an app package that previously had succeeded in notarizing. Now the notarizing service fails, citing issues with the same jars as described above. Are you able to confirm whether anything has changed? Any ideas on what we could look at?

Starting a few hours ago (roughly 2:45PM Eastern time) we began experiencing elevated latency with the Developer ID Notary Service. There is nothing listed on the developer system status page about degraded performance or a service outage. Operations that usually take ~15 minutes, are stacking up for hours. The oldest pending entry we have was created at 2:45PM Eastern: createdDate: 2025-06-24T18:45:22.539Z id: 5209a4d2-eae4-4714-aa8e-6961677ff2e We currently have 27 pending builds in the notary service since we are required to notarize internal builds to ensure we satisfy our requirements so this is creating an issue for us.

Normally I get a response from a submit via notarytool within 30 seconds. Today - with a process that worked a few days ago - I don't get any answer, although the system status claims that the service is up and work. Anybody else, or is it only me?

Hi, overnight I'm getting "HTTP status code: 403. Invalid or inaccessible developer team ID for the provided Apple ID. Ensure the Team ID is correct and that you are a member of that team." in my pipeline running notarytool store-credentials. I'm getting --apple-id, --team-id and --password from CI variables. Double checked the values (even though they shouldn't change). Tried a new app specific password I did not change anything to cause this and my apple developer account is active. Really scratching my head what's going on here. Some assistance would be greatly appreciated!
