Hi, I need to create a new Developer ID installer certificate as I cannot locate the private key on my old computer. I need to revoke the certificate. I have the Account holder and admin rights but I can't see the revoke option. And when I try to create a new certificate, the panel response is "There is already an existing one." Again, I need to install a new Developer ID installer certificate on the KeyChain of my new computer with its private key. I can't codesign and complete my work at the moment ! I have sent several support e-mails but no single response ! Any guidance is much appreciated. thank you.

Hello, I cannot build a signed app that will both be accepted by Testflight and run locally. Only one or the other! I'm singing my .app and building the package thus: CODESIGN_ID="Apple Distribution: company (number)" INSTALLSIGN_ID="3rd Party Mac Developer Installer: company (number)" codesign --force --deep --entitlements plist.xcent -o runtime --timestamp --sign "$CODESIGN_ID" myapp.app productbuild --sign "$INSTALLSIGN_ID" --timestamp --component myapp.app /Applications myapp.pkg With entitlements: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>com.apple.security.get-task-allow</key> <false/> <key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.client</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.inherit</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.application-identifier</key> <string>TEAM.com.COMPANY.APPNAME</string> <key>com.apple.developer.team-identifier</key> <string>TEAM/string> </dict> </plist> If I leave out the last two entitlements "com.apple.application-identifier" and "com.apple.developer.team-identifier", the package validates and runs locally. It can be uploaded but it is NOT accepted by Testflight. When i add the last two entitlements (above), it will not validate until i also add in my provisioning profile into; myapp.app/Contents/embedded.provisionprofile When this is done, the package validates, uploads and is accepted by Testflight. It can be tested and runs. But, myapp.app will no longer run locally!! no will the local copy of myapp.pkg install. It will only run through Testflight or will run again if i take out the above keys that Testflight apparently requires. Can anyone shed any light on this? Am i doing something wrong. Thanks for any help.

We have a DriverKit entitlement for our USB driver. We now wish to use this same driver with a variant of our existing application. Of course this application has its own separate App ID and will be published in the App Store alongside our existing application. Will we need to go back to the well and ask Apple for another entitlement?

Hi, If an Apple developer subscription account is stopped, how does it affect already signed and and notarized apps? Will all apps and dmg's already signed and notarized in the past still be valid in the future?

Hello. I am developing an electron app with vscode. And I have some problems while signing and notarizing. I signed it with electron-osx-sign command. Then I tried notarize using xcrun notarytool submit .zip --keychian-profile "NotaryCredential" --wait. but the result says it is invalid. so I show the notarize log. Below is the log file. It says some framework bundles are not signatured. Please check it and let me know what is the problem. Thank you. notarize log.txt

Hello, After my developer Id had expired after 5 years, I created a new one, codesigned the app successfully, but could not notarize: xcrun notarytool submit mac_release/flow5.zip --keychain-profile "XFLR5" --wait Conducting pre-submission checks for flow5.zip and initiating connection to the Apple notary service... Error: HTTP status code: 401. Invalid credentials. Username or password is incorrect. Use the app-specific password generated at appleid.apple.com. Ensure that all authentication arguments are correct I don't think I was using an app specific password before, but the last time I went through this process was 5 years ago. Thanks in advance for any help.

I want to use the com.apple.vm.networking entitlement which has a note: This entitlement is restricted to developers of virtualization software. To request this entitlement, contact your Apple representative. https://developer.apple.com/support/technical/ says: « Request entitlements using entitlement forms and ask for status updates in the resulting email thread. » but I haven't been able to find these "entitlement forms". Does anyone know what the right process is to request an entitlement?

After the ios background creates the group and adds it to the Identifiers, an error is displayed at xcode signing. Error: An Application group with Identifier 'group.xx' is not available. Please enter a different string. Looking at Figure 1 and Figure 2, you can see that I have created in the background, but it will not succeed in XCODE. Does anyone know the reason I started to think that the account and certificate problems, but after the replacement is not successful How to solve this problem, thank you

We've recently updated our build server to macOS 15.1.1 and ever since notarization sporadically fails. Notarytool says No Keychain password item found for profile: foo, even though that item is present. I found out it works when I either log in using Remote Desktop (don't need to do anything else, just login and wait) or when running security unlock-keychain via SSH (but that one's not persistent, either). We're using GitLab (via gitlab-runner on the build server) and so far notarization hasn't had much problems with the keychain. That started with macOS 15.1. Are there any changes in 15.1 that we need to be aware of to make this stable?

Hello, I've notarised my app like this: ` codesign codesign --force --deep --entitlements "/Users/username/myapp/myapp.app/Contents/app.entitlements" --sign "Developer ID Application: Username (my team id)" "/Users/username/myapp/myapp.app" codesign -v /Users/username/myapp/myapp.app ` ` create .zip file ditto -c -k --keepParent "myapp.app" "myapp.zip" ` ` submit binary to Apple xcrun notarytool submit Shalloville.zip --apple-id "my icloud" --password "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" --team-id "my team id" ` Is there anything wrong? I submitted the .zip file on 27/11 and it's still "In Progress".

It has been 3 days and it is still in progress. As you can see in the history, I retried a few hours after the initial attempt, both are stuck. For what it's worth, this is my first notary attempt on this Apple Developer Account, I am aware that first-time submission can take longer. What should I do at this point? Wait another few days? Is there a human in the loop that needs to manually allow my submission? I have seen posts about this for the last 2 years.

I just paid for 99$ a year and it's already 48hrs ago since I've paid. But when I click on my name it still says "Pending" and on the main landingpage on https://developer.apple.com/account it still says this "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process." Do I need a membership to codesign and notarising my VST plugins? Cause that'a what I bought it for.

I have a werid case that shouldn't happen according to https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/706390 I have an audio unit which runs in FCP and I want it to launch a sandboxed app as a child process. If I sign the child app with just "com.apple.security.app-sandbox" entitlement it crashes with SYSCALL_SET_PROFILE error. According to the article referenced above: "This indicates that the process tried to setup its sandbox profile but that failed, in this case because it already has a sandbox profile." This makes sense because audio units run in a sandboxed environment (in AUHostingService process). So I added "com.apple.security.inherit" to the entitlements plist and now I get "Process is not in an inherited sandbox." error. According to the article referenced above: "Another cause of a trap within _libsecinit_appsandbox is when a nonsandboxed process runs another program as a child process and that other program’s executable has the com.apple.security.app-sandbox and com.apple.security.inherit entitlements. That is, the child process wants to inherit its sandbox from its parent but there’s nothing to inherit." And this doesn't make sense at all. The first error indicates the child process is trying to create a sandboxed environment within a parent sandboxed environment while the second error indicates there's no a parent sandboxed environment... I specifically checked the child process has "com.apple.security.app-sandbox" and "com.apple.security.inherit" entitlements only. If I remove all entitlements from the child process it launches and runs fine from the audio unit plugin. And if I remove "com.apple.security.inherit" but leave "com.apple.security.app-sandbox" I can successfully launch the app in standalone mode (in Finder). For the testing puroses I use a simple Hello World desktop application generated by XCode (Obj-C). Does anybody have an idea what can be the reason for such a weird behavior?

Platforms: Ventura and Big Sur Steps to Reproduce: Create new application and installer CSRs with keypairs Generate new certificates in Apple web portal Repackage certificates as .p12 using exported private keys since they are not referenced in keychain app by default. Import certificates into MacOS Keychain Set certificate access to "Always Trust" for all certificate uses Sign binary fails using "codesign --force --sign " Sign installer package succeeds using "productsign --sign Additional Info: The private keys ware initially not recognized by the Keychain application resulting a certificate without a private key "leaf" beneath them. To resolve it I exported the private key and repackaged certificate as a .p12 file. Both certificates appear "good" when evaluated for code signing The installer certificate shows an intermediate and root while the application certificate does not Repackaging as .p12 with expected intermediate and root did not resolve the issue Installing all available intermediates and roots from Apple did not resolve the issue Signing a test app with XCode succeeds In production, we sign using CMake so we need to be able to sign code from the command line with codesign.

I have an existing Xcode project that I am trying to add MusicKit to, but for some reason I am unable to. I have logged into my developer account, and ticked off the MusicKit checkbox under the Services tab of my app in the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section. In Xcode I have Automatically manage signing set to true. But MusicKit does not show up as a Capability, neither in the list of capabilities in my app, nor when trying to add it with the +Capability button. I have done this successfully before with Game Center, so I really do not understand why this does not work with MusicKit. Any ideas as to how this can be solved?

I am working on releasing my macOS arm64 app. My problem is that after the user downloads the dmg, double-clicking my.app in the dmg, a Gatekeeper pop-up box will appear with a warning that the developer cannot be verified. Question: Can an application signed with "com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation" be published as trusted? If yes, what steps have I missed? If not, can I get an official response from Apple? （Because I referred to this post, it seems to mention that it is possible to publish trusted software.I have looked up similar questions on the forum and tried many things, but nothing works. ） Here are my steps: Use the codesign to sign my.app. Because my app needs to access third-party dynamic libraries, entitlements.plist contains a "com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation". After the "codesign -dvvv" check, the signature was successful.✅ Use the "xcrun notarytool" command to notarize my app, and the status is displayed as accepted.✅ Use "xcrun stapler staple" to attach the notarization to my app, and it returns success.✅ Use the "spctl -a -v " command to verify whether my app has passed Gatekeeper, and it returns that it has passed.✅ Then I packaged my.app into a dmg, and then attached the notarization mark to the dmg, which was successful.✅ I completed the above steps and distributed the dmg. When I downloaded the dmg as a user test and double-clicked my.app in it, the Gatekeeper pop-up box still appeared, and the developer cannot be verified.❌

I’m developing an app on .NET8 for macOS and encountered an issue during App Review with feedback: "An error showed upon launch. The app cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. This may be due to an issue with your app’s Gatekeeper conformance." Additionally, the provided screenshot showed this message: "Application is damaged and can't be opened. Delete and reinstall from App Store." Here’s the process I follow to create the package: Build the application. Sign it using the following command: codesign --force --verify --verbose --deep --options runtime --timestamp --entitlements ../Entitlements.plist -s '3rd Party Mac Developer Application: [ID]' Demo.app Create the package using this command: productbuild --component Demo.app /Applications --sign '3rd Party Mac Developer Installer: [ID]' Demo.pkg After installing the app from TestFligt it doesn’t show the errors. Could someone please advise on what might be causing this issue and how I can fix it? The Entitlements.plist file contains the following keys and values: <key>com.apple.application-identifier</key> <string>[ID].com.demo.appc</string> <key>com.apple.developer.team-identifier</key> <string>[ID]</string> <key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.network.client</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.files.bookmarks.app-scope</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-dyld-environment-variables</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation</key> <true/> The project file snippet includes the following configuration for the release build: <OutputPath>bin\Release</OutputPath> <Optimize>true</Optimize> <NoStdLib>true</NoStdLib> <UseSGen>false</UseSGen> <UseRefCounting>false</UseRefCounting> <TlsProvider>Default</TlsProvider> <PublishTrimmed>true</PublishTrimmed> <TrimMode>partial</TrimMode> <RunAOTCompilation>false</RunAOTCompilation> <EnablePackageSigning>true</EnablePackageSigning> <CodeSigningKey>3rd Party Mac Developer Application:[ID] </CodeSigningKey> <EnableCodeSigning>True</EnableCodeSigning> <CreatePackage>false</CreatePackage> <PackageSigningKey>3rd Party Mac Developer Installer:[ID] </PackageSigningKey> <Profiling>false</Profiling> <CodeSignProvision>provfile</CodeSignProvision> <CodeSignEntitlements>Entitlements.plist</CodeSignEntitlements> <LangVersion>default</LangVersion>
