I have an non-appstore application, using developer id which I want to transfer to another developer account. How can I go about doing this? How do I transfer the app ID? Will past versions of that app signed with the old account continue to work? Will I have to re-sign them?

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. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-04-09T03:49:07.620Z id: 8fcf8111-c18c-4941-acb6-f447d86735a2 name: Open Interface.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-04-09T03:23:58.816Z id: 93461030-f230-4225-b9f2-5d9472904858 name: Open Interface.zip status: In Progress Does anyone know what might be going wrong?

I have two apps written in MAUI Mac Catalyst Framework -- one is main app, second is app updater. My updater works this way: it is located in the same directory as main app: firstly it deletes MainApp.app/Contents folder, then unzips new Contents folder that was downloaded from server. I added NSUpdateSecurityPolicy dictionary as in https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/nsupdatesecuritypolicy and create application like . It looks that I wrote everything fine pkgbuild --install-location '/Library/Application Support/First' --root root --ownership preserve # aslo signing, etc But on user's macOS, system does not allow to delete Contents folder: I have IO_Access denied exception. Can it be because main app is sandboxing or something else? What I can do wrong? Thanks a lot in advance!

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.

Hey guys! Please, its not possible to remove or reuse an identifier (new app by removing the old one) through the developer portal? https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list Everytime we try to remove there is a message we can't: There is a problem with the request entity The App ID 'xxxxxxxxxxx' appears to be in use by the App Store, so it can not be removed at this time. But the app has been removed!!! Does anyone knows how to delete/reuse an identifier by doing some action in the portal? NOTE: we are low code - no Xcode (yes, so poor) Thank u guys!

I am not enrolled in the Apple developer program and need to create a small Safari app extension helper that will be shared with my colleagues within the company. Is it somehow possible for me to distribute the app in some way without forcing everyone to disable a gatekeeper?

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 two apps that installed by .pkg . They are both signed by Developer Application . One of my apps has purpose of updating another app. It is implemented by deleteting it from folder, and unzipping archive with new .app to it's folder. Even if new app is signed and notarized, has stepled ticket on it, I get error "App is damaged and can't be opened". In Secrity and Confidentiality preferences I have warning that developer is unauthorized, even if this new app is notarized and signed. How can I implement app update to not throw error that app is damaged> Thanks a lot in advance

Hello, I am writing a Desktop application for macOS with XCode. This application will be available on app store. So, i have to put sandbox entitlement. So, this application won't be able to access Desktop folder. It will be jailed into a specific directory to store datas. I have installed a macOS application from appstore. When I launched this application, I got a TCC prompt, asking me to allow this application to access Desktop (or Downloads I don't remember). How can this be possible ? I have tried to write a sandboxed application which tries to access to Desktop folder. I didn't get any TCC prompt: My access was rejected. How can I ask to access Desktop folder from I sandboxed application ? Thanks a lot

Hey, I am trying to use Family Controls in Mac Catalyst. On the iOS app it works fine. On macOs using Mac Catalyst it builds fine but I get following console output. Failed to get service proxy: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.FamilyControlsAgent was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.FamilyControlsAgent was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 159 - Sandbox restriction.}` When i try to open the FamilyActivityPicker on the macOs app following error is displayed in the GUI. The operation could not be completed. (FamilyControls.ActivityPickerRemoteView Error error 2.) Do I need a familyControls capability for macOs? If yes, I only find it for iOS. Thanks for hints and help :)

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?

I've heard family controls request forms can take up to weeks and even months... I'm currently developing an app that requires the main target and also the app extension to both use Family Controls. Does this mean I need to request forms for both app bundles separately or just the main app? If I have to wait weeks or even months for both then that's a bit painful tbh. Is there a way to distribute to testflight without getting approved for the family controls entitlement? Thanks

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

I made some changes to my MAUI app in VS 2022 on Windows 11. I had no trouble testing my app on a locally connected iPhone before, but now when I try to debug the same app (with changes), on the same iPhone, and the same Windows machine, with the same valid certificates in the VS Apple Accounts Details, I get this error: iOS code signing key 'Apple Development: B... (...)' not found in keychain. Why is it even referring to the keychain when I'm on a Windows machine using VS2022 valid certificates in the VS Apple Accounts Details Also, I'm getting "MSB6006: 'codesign' exited with code 3." error when trying to test/debug on a remote mac machine.

Hello, I'm create an app using QT on MacOs with Generate to Xcode, when submitting it to the App Store the upload process was successful but I got email feedback with the message containing the following: ITMS-90238: Invalid Signature - The main app bundle Tren at path Tren.app has following signing error(s): a sealed resource is missing or invalid . Refer to the Code Signing and Application Sandboxing Guide at http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Security/Conceptual/CodeSigningGuide/AboutCS/AboutCS.html and Technical Note 2206 at https://developer.apple .com/library/mac/technotes/tn2206/_index.html for more information. ITMS-90296: App sandbox not enabled - The following executables must include the 'com.apple.security.app-sandbox' entitlement with a Boolean value of true in the entitlements property list: [[Tren.app/Contents/MacOS/Tren ]] Refer to App Sandbox page at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/app_sandbox for more information on sandboxing your app. I've done the methods available in the community, but it still doesn't work. I hope someone will provide a solution, thank you

Hello . Currently, only the ios version is on sale on the App Store. The application is offering an icloud-linked, auto-renewable subscription. I want to sell to the app store connect with the same identifier, AppID at the same time. I simply added visionos to the existing app project to provide the visionos version early, but the existing UI-related code and the location-related code are not compatible. We used the same identifier with the same name, duplicated and optimized only what could be implemented, and created it without any problems on the actual device. However, when I added the visionos platform to the App Store cennect and tried to upload it through the archive in the app for visionos that I created as an addition, there was an error in the identifier and provisioning, so the upload was blocked. The result of looking up to solve the problem App Group -I found out about the function, but it was judged that a separate app was for an integrated service, so it was not suitable for me. Add an APP to an existing app project via target and manually adjust the platform in Xcode -> Build Phases -> Compile Soures -> Archive upload success?( I haven't been able to implement this stage of information yet.) I explained the current situation. Please give me some advice on how to implement it.visionos has a lot of constraints, so you need to take a lot of features off.

When I try to copy existing provision profile from our onprem mac mini to aws mac mini it is disappeared from the folder . /Users/ec2-user/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/ Not sure whats going here .

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.
