Hello, I am experiencing a serious issue with my Apple Developer Program enrollment, and after multiple contacts with Apple Developer Support, I still have no resolution. My enrollment process has been ongoing since August 5, 2026. Here is a summary of what has happened: August 5: I started the Apple Developer Program enrollment process. I initially could not enroll through the Apple Developer app because the Enroll Now button was disabled and I was directed to enroll through the website. During the web enrollment process, Apple requested additional identity verification. I submitted the requested identity documents and information. After the review, I was eventually allowed to continue with the enrollment and reached the payment stage. August 13: I paid 1,029 TRY for the Apple Developer Program through Apple's website. The amount was successfully charged. However, my Developer Program membership was never activated. I was subsequently directed to try enrollment through the Apple Developer app. On my iPhone, the identity verification process failed and the app displayed “ID Verification Rejected.” I also tried on a Mac. After entering my identity and address information, I received: “Contact us to continue. There may be an issue with your account that needs to be resolved before you can continue. Please contact support.” August 15: Apple issued and emailed me an official invoice confirming the 1,029 TRY Apple Developer Program payment. Despite the successful payment and invoice, I still have no active membership. Today, the situation changed again. A few hours ago, the Developer app was still displaying “ID Verification Rejected.” I then went to the Apple Developer website, where an Enroll button appeared. I selected it and chose to continue enrollment through the website. The website immediately displayed: “Your enrollment could not be completed. Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time.” After this happened, I checked the Apple Developer app again. Interestingly, “ID Verification Rejected” had disappeared, but the Enroll Now button became disabled again. The app now says that enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple Account and directs me back to the website. So I am currently stuck in a loop: Developer app → tells me to use the website Website → says my enrollment cannot be completed At the same time, Apple has already charged me 1,029 TRY and issued an official invoice, but I still do not have the Apple Developer Program membership that I paid for. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times and have an existing support case. I have followed every instruction provided to me, submitted the requested identity information, tried enrollment on the web, iPhone, and Mac, and completed the payment. This has been ongoing since August 5, and it is now preventing me from continuing with my app development and distribution plans. Has anyone experienced a similar situation where Apple successfully charged and invoiced the Developer Program membership, but the enrollment remained blocked? If an Apple Developer Support representative sees this post, I would greatly appreciate it if my enrollment could be reviewed or escalated to the appropriate enrollment/review team. Case ID: 20000129008605 I can provide Apple Developer Support with the payment confirmation, official invoice, screenshots of both errors, and any additional identity documentation required. For privacy reasons, I have not included my Apple Account email address, invoice number, or personal identification information in this public post. Thank you.

Crie uma conta, efetuei o pagamento de 99 dólares, esperei aprovarem, debitaram da minha conta e aprovaram. Estou solicitando o suporte e não retornam o meu problema por e-mail. Estou tentando formar extrajudiciais de resolver este problema, porém a equipe da Apple não esta me respondendo. Preciso que verifiquem o que aconteceu e que, se for o caso, devolvam o valor que eu paguei ja que voces não liberaram o recurso para a minha conta.

Hello everyone, I am currently running the macOS Golden Gate 27 Developer Beta and am experiencing an issue with external displays. I am only able to connect one external display successfully. Any additional external displays I try to plug in do not work or are not recognized by the system. Here are the details of my setup: Mac Model: 16-inch MacBook Pro (Apple M4 Pro, 24 GB Memory) macOS Version: macOS 27 Version 27.0 Beta (Build 26A5353q) Displays: Two LG UltraFine 5K Thunderbolt displays Connection Type: Connected directly using two separate Apple Thunderbolt 4 cables Troubleshooting steps already taken: Restarted the Mac Tested different cables and ports Verified both displays work individually (only fails when both are connected) Has anyone else encountered this issue on this specific beta build? If so, have you found any temporary workarounds? Side note: Feedback Assistant was not working for me. I tried it in the Web, and the native App, neither of them would work. I am posting here because there was nowhere else to submit this bug report.

Dear Apple Developer Support / Apple Developer Program Team, I am writing to formally escalate an unresolved issue with my Apple Developer Program application. I initially applied for the Apple Developer Program at the beginning of June 2026. My application was subsequently accepted, and I received communication indicating that I should be able to proceed with the remaining steps to activate my Developer Program membership. However, the process has been technically blocked from the beginning. When I follow the link provided by Apple, I am unable to proceed with signing the agreement and completing the required payment. Instead, I remain stuck on the same screen: “Thank you for your submission. We’ll get back to you soon.” I have contacted Apple Support and Developer Support repeatedly about this issue. On several occasions, I have spent approximately 1–1.5 hours waiting to reach a representative. Unfortunately, most of the representatives I have spoken with have been unable to identify or resolve the underlying issue. I have repeatedly been advised to be patient and have been told that the matter appears to be related to an internal Operations department. I fully appreciate that technical issues can occur and that some cases require investigation by another department. However, this matter has now remained unresolved for approximately three months. At one point, after waiting for a significant period without a resolution, I requested that my application be withdrawn so that I could submit a new application and potentially avoid the technical issue. Even getting this request understood and processed took approximately 1.5–2 weeks. I subsequently submitted a new application and, again, the application was accepted. Unfortunately, I am now experiencing essentially the same technical problem and remain unable to complete the enrollment process. This has become extremely concerning because we are not dealing with a normal application delay. We appear to be dealing with a technical or operational issue that prevents an accepted applicant from completing the final enrollment steps, while standard support channels have been unable to resolve or meaningfully explain the situation. I have retained documentation of the entire process, including application confirmations, acceptance communications, screenshots, correspondence and support interactions, and I am able to provide these upon request. Our company is a legitimate new business and our development activities and applications are directly connected to our company website, business email infrastructure and development plans. We have also involved experienced developers who have previously worked with Apple Developer accounts at established international companies, and this situation is highly unusual compared with their previous experience. I want to emphasize that I have been patient and cooperative throughout this process. I have provided the requested information, contacted the appropriate support channels multiple times, followed the instructions given to me, and even restarted the application process when advised. During the phone calls I selected that everything can be recorded so apple should have those conversations. However, after approximately three months, I believe it is reasonable to request that this matter receive attention at a level capable of actually resolving it. I am not looking for preferential treatment. I am simply asking Apple to investigate why an application that has already been accepted cannot proceed through the enrollment process, and to provide a clear explanation and resolution. Please treat this as a formal complaint and escalation request and provide me with a reference/case number for this complaint. I am prepared to provide all supporting documentation immediately. I sincerely hope this matter can now be escalated to someone who has the authority and technical access necessary to investigate and resolve it ASAP. Kind regards,

Gidday I hope that I have posted this in the correct thread. We have had an app developed on behalf of a not-for-profit organisation that I volunteer with, and part of my role is to report every month on the total number of installations for this app. Previously, I have been able to log on to "App Store Connect" and select the app, then Analytics and on the right-hand side of the page, the date range for the life of the app. Then it would show me the total number of installations for the app's life. Can anyone out there show me how to go about this now, considering that the total date range has been removed or am I missing this entirely?

After updating 13-inch iPad Pro (M4, 1TB, cellular model) to iPadOS 27 Beta 1 and later version, the automix mode in the Music app has stopped working. I have confirmed this issue is unrelated to my subscription status. I tried toggling the Song Transition option back on in Settings and switching to the Crossfade mode, but the problem persists—the Song Transition button inside the Music app remains grayed out and unavailable.

Hi all, first I have to admit that I am not a developer. So bear please with me. I am the guy who tries to find the best solution for our company. At our company we plan to capture our domain in Apple Business. This means that developers that use our domain name as part of their personal Apple Account need to decide, whether they want to migrate their account to a Managed Apple Account (controlled by the company), or rather stick with a personal Apple Account. In this case they would need to change the email-address of that Apple Account to a personal email address. For all the other employees affected by the change, we recommend to stick with personal Apple Accounts. But for developers, I am not so sure if this approach would be the best, or worse, if this would break things (e.g. Testflight, AppStore Connect, and all that). What would you recommend? Any insights would be more than appreciated. Thanks, Oliver

Hello everyone, Our app has been stuck in "Waiting for Review" for 7 days now, and I'd like to check if this is expected given current queue times, or if something might be blocking it. App: Charry Up Submission ID: 419195e2-331c-4553-b290-fc06c3a89ea8 Version: 1.0.0 (6) Submitted: August 20, 2026 at 15:54 Current status: Waiting for Review (has not yet moved to "In Review") I've checked App Store Connect and don't see any messages, missing information, or action required on our side. This is our very first submission to the App Store, and the delay is affecting a planned launch. I've also just submitted a request for expedited review given the time-sensitivity. Has anyone experienced something similar recently? Any guidance on next steps would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi I'm currently trying to create a post within the developer forum. I've tried several times but I keep getting an error with "content not found" after hitting "Post". When I check the browser dev tools I'm getting a http 403 error. My system is: Firefox version 154 running on Linux Mint 22.3. The screenshot below is the error page I get after I tried creating a post regarding Safari, Web Extensions.

Hi, I am running macos golden gate beta on my Mac. Some applications have issues accessing the local network, i.e. Windows app (former RDP), Orca Slicer, Bitwarden... The apps can not access the local network. And they don't ask for permission to access the local network. In my previous installations with Macos before Golden Gate these all worked with no problems. When I check the settings in System Settings/Privacy&Security/Local Network: In the summary of the section it says there are 3 (three) apps In the list for Local Network, there are only 2 (two) apps listed. The apps mentioned above never appear in this list I also removed in recovery mode the .plist-files for networkextensions => still the same issue How can I grant access for the applications? Thanks for any help Joerg

Anyone with the similar experience? Would appreciate the advice: Timeline: Initial submission: ~4 weeks ago First review: Completed after ~2 weeks after we have sent the expedited review request Fixes applied: Completed within 24 hours Resubmission: August 12, 2026 Current status: Still in review - no activity for ~2 weeks We have a planned launch date that's now at risk due to this review delay. The lack of any reviewer interaction on the resubmission is particularly concerning. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated

I am trying to enroll in the Developer Program, but just get a message saying contact support after I complete the form. I contacted support, but no reply. How does one get support from Apple??? Not a very good introduction to the Apple eco-system.

App: AI RunCoach — App ID 6782097197, bundle ID com.airuncoach.app, Team ID 4N3X74Y2LF When adding a new build to our External Testing group, TestFlight shows: "Before you can use TestFlight to distribute beta builds of your app, you must renew your Apple Developer Program membership." Our membership is not expired: the Membership Details page shows renewal date 20 June 2027, auto-renew ON, and the €99 fee already paid. We've also checked Agreements, Tax, and Banking — nothing shows as pending or requiring action anywhere. In the meantime, our app has been stuck in "In Review" status since August 3, and TestFlight installations also seem to be blocked. A request for an expedited review produced no result, and a request for a phone consultation did not lead to any contact either. Did anyone else experience this, and could someone advise on how to contact Apple about this? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

i have membership, bought 2 weeks ago but several days later i have this issue Before you can use TestFlight to distribute beta builds of your app, you must renew your Apple Developer Program membership.

Hi everyone! We’re looking for beta testers for PPS – Play · Pause · Stop, a new iPhone app designed to make tracking working hours simple, fast and intuitive. ⚠️ Important: The current beta is available in Spanish only. Please join only if you are comfortable testing an app in Spanish. PPS is designed for people who want to keep an accurate record of their working time and earnings without complicated time-management systems. With PPS you can: • Start, pause, resume and finish a workday • Add and edit workdays manually • Manage split shifts and breaks • Track regular and overtime hours • Configure your usual working schedule • Calculate estimated earnings based on hourly rates • View your work history in a calendar • Mark workdays as paid or pending • View summaries by day, week, month or custom date range • Add notes to individual workdays • Export work reports This is our first external beta, so we’re particularly interested in feedback from people who have never used PPS before. We would especially like to know: • Is the app intuitive without instructions? • Is it obvious how to start and finish a workday? • Are pauses and split shifts easy to understand? • Are the calendar and summaries useful and clear? • Do regular/overtime calculations behave as expected? • Are earnings and paid/pending information understandable? • Is there anything confusing or unnecessarily complicated? • What feature do you think is missing? • Have you found any bugs, crashes or UI problems? Suggestions and criticism are very welcome. We’re interested not only in finding bugs, but also in understanding how PPS feels to someone seeing it for the first time. TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/6vkXy7EU The first testing group is intentionally limited while we collect and evaluate feedback. Thanks for helping us improve PPS!

Hello, I would like to cancel my pending Individual-to-Organization membership migration.

If you're on an Intel Mac, here's the reason and the fix. Cost me an evening, and I found nothing online except closed bug reports with the same symptom. The problem: The browser flow works fine. You authorize, the page confirms, Xcode acts like nothing happened, no error anywhere. Xcode only downloads the Apple Silicon (arm64) build of its agent binaries. On Intel they can't run at all. The process meant to receive your login dies instantly with "bad CPU type in executable" and Xcode never surfaces it. Check if this is you: file ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/Agents/claude/*/claude If it says arm64 and your Mac is Intel, that's the problem. The fix: Open the Info.plist next to the binary. It has the exact download URL. Download the x64 build of the same version. → Claude: change darwin-arm64 to darwin-x64 in that URL. → Codex: grab codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz from the matching rust-v release on GitHub. Replace the binary and make it executable: chmod 755 Update the checksum in Info.plist. It's a plain SHA-512: shasum -a 512 Restart Xcode and sign in again. Bonus (Claude Pro / Max) Run claude setup-token in Terminal, then add the token to: ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/ClaudeAgentConfig/settings.json {"env": {"CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN": "your-token"}} Pick "Authenticate with Configuration File" in the agent menu. Runs on your subscription no API key. Heads up: an Xcode update can re-download the wrong binary, so you may have to repeat this until Apple fixes the architecture detection.

I am using Xcode 27.5 beta along with the integration of Claude and Chatgpt sessions in the same project screen. When I post a message in a chat with Chatgpt, once it finished reading and replying back, the message I sent shows back up in the message box. I have to manually delete when I want to post a reply. Claude does not do this. Is there a setting I am missing? Thank You
