Hello,
I install virtual machine macOS Sequoia 15.0 on Window 11. When I login Apple ID on that VM, it throws error: Verification Failed: An unknown error occured.
Can you please let me know this is not allowed by Apple Policy or how should I do to be able to login Apple ID?
Attached is the error noti.
Thank you

Hi my macbook pro speakers stopped working, they're not muted nor volume is down.
whenever I try to play a video or song over youtube it says that something is wrong with the audio.
I did a diagnostic and it says everything is fine.

I want the wkwebview to revert to its previous state when I restart it.
For 9 Glorious Months, My MacBook Pro & J5 Create JCD543 HUB Were Best Friends… Until I Updated macOS
For nearly a year, my MacBook Pro 14” (2023, M2 Pro, 16GB RAM) worked flawlessly with my J5 Create JCD543 HUB, allowing me to run:
✅ 4 External Displays (Samsung, LG, Insignia, Samsung)
A setup that worked perfectly… until I updated macOS.
Then Came the Update… and the Issues Began
First, I updated last week. Two of my four displays stopped working. No big deal, I thought—I’ve dealt with display quirks before.
Then, like an optimist ignoring red flags, I updated again last night to 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) and… well, now things are completely broken.
My Once-Perfect Setup (Now a Display Disaster)
JCD543 HUB → 2 HDMI displays (not working)
JUD380 HUB → 1 HDMI display (partially working, unstable)
MacBook HDMI port → 1 HDMI display (working, but feeling abandoned)
JCA365 USB-C to Dual HDMI Adapter (Not part of my setup, but tested—also not working)
What I’ve Tried (aka My Troubleshooting Journey)
✔ Restarted my Mac multiple times
✔ Uninstalled and reinstalled J5 drivers
✔ Swapped cables, unplugged/replugged everything, tested known-working HDMI cables (they work fine on other devices)
✔ Deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist (this fixed a similar issue in the past, but the file no longer exists in this update)
The Likely Culprit?
It seems to be a J5 driver issue triggered by the macOS update—and I’m not alone. Others are reporting similar problems.
Apple… Any Fixes?
I just want my four screens back. The setup worked flawlessly for 9 months, so it’s hard to believe it was never meant to work.
If anyone has a workaround, I’m open to testing any solution—whether it’s a driver update, system tweak, or hidden macOS setting that might bring my displays back to life.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
(P.S. Apple, if you’re reading this—please look into this issue!)

We are experiencing an issue where a user is unable to open our app on their iPhone 16 Pro Max running iOS 18.3. When the user selects the app, it begins to scale to screen size but then fades away without fully opening. It is unclear whether this is a crash or another issue.
To troubleshoot, we created a simplified version of the app containing only a single screen displaying "Hello, World." The user experiences the same issue with this version, leading us to believe there may be a device-specific setting or compatibility issue at play.
Steps the User Has Tried:
Checked device storage – over 200GB available
Offloaded and reinstalled the app
Deleted and reinstalled the app
Updated to iOS 18.3
Forced restart of the device
Reset network settings
Turned off VPN
Despite these steps, the issue persists. We would appreciate any guidance on potential causes or troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue.

The Bluetooth on my iPhone 14 hasn’t been working for a week now. Everything was fine until, at some point, it started endlessly turning on and off by itself. I’ve tried resetting the settings, doing a hard reset, updating to iOS 18.3—none of these helped. I even deleted all VPN profiles just in case (I saw this suggested on forums), but that didn’t work either. According to forums, this bug has existed since September and affects thousands of people. The constant cycling causes the Bluetooth settings to freeze. Please help! My watch, headphones, car—everything has turned into a pumpkin!
I have an old application. It worked at one time. Due to changes in the user environment, it is now possible to download applications from the AppStore. I built the app and sent it for review. And I received a report that my app crashed at startup. I tried to reproduce the fall for myself, but it didn't work out. In the crash log, I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the app. Please help me and tell me what I should look for in the log or in the application.
The crash location (which I found in the log):
_UIPathLazyImageAsset imageWithConfiguration
cl-1.crash
cl-1-n.crash

I used spotlight search for almost everything I do through cmd+space. However ever since i updated my laptop to MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1, the spotlight search won't give me app results:
for example i type "flux" and will get just web-based results, not the app. I tried going into the spotlight settings and only enabling applications to be searched for results and got nothing. I tried the same with the Notes app, i get the same result, i get some notes i wrote as result but not the actual app.
It doesn't happen on all apps for example Brave or Spotify work.
I have been trying to open Minecraft on my mac, however my java keeps quitting expectedly. I am not sure how to solve that considering I've tried deleting and reinstalling both java and minecraft a few times.

I have a iPhone 14 Pro Max device with iOS 18.2.1 but I am facing an in which the device gets restart abruptly.Interestingly, today the device is not restarting at all. I attempted a hard reset by pressing the volume up button, followed by the volume down button, and then holding the power button, but this method was unsuccessful. When I connect the device to a charger, the Apple logo appears, but it disappears after a short period, and the device does not progress beyond this point. I would appreciate any assistance in recovering my device.Has anyone experienced the same issue with the iPhone 14 series?
After updating my carrier name changed to 410 04 name is not displaying just this code is showing

I am a startup founder based in India. Recently the iOS developer we were working with left the company in some what acrimonious circumstances.
Post his departure from the company, he has made it clear that he will try to cause damage to our iOS app to the extent that it starts to crash.
Even though we have removed his access, as a non tech founder, I am not sure what ways he can edit or hamper our iOS app and what measures we can take to protect the same.
Please advise us with steps for us to secure our code and ensure no one can edit the same or hamper our iOS app on the app store.
Thank you
Hi Team,
I just want to know the reasoning behind why there are two IPSW with same version and different build IDs.
Example: https://ipsw.me/iPhone12,3
Version: 18.3
BuildIDs: 22D64 and 22D63
Also, in future, on what devices this kind of two buildIDs will be created?

Connection is getting broken while moving from background to foreground in latest iOS 18.3.is there any change regarding background activity?
I recently wrote an article on getting gtk auto complete/syntax highlighting on macOS
its a genuinely fun hobby to make portable software, and this method will ultimately help in porting software to the macOS platform
a copy and paste:
before I continue, I want to mention that emacs auto completion, using company-mode, is rather slow when it comes to parsing a ton files, and in some configurations, especially recursively when it comes to parsing and displaying functions and macros, even when using the semantic auto complete system, but I do believe it speeds up when you initially parse and save to ctags or when you build a semanticdb, functions such as g_signal_connect() and macros such as G_APPLICATION however, did not work with company modes auto complete, but worked with flycheck on the fly syntax checking, using this method, and I haven’t had time to perfect an emacs configuration; maybe some time next week
you will need gtk installed from brew or ports, since gtk has trouble compiling from source on some Mac configurations. this method works with whatever version of gtk is reported by pkg-config –cflags (pkg-config --cflags gtk. you will also need pkg-config installed, multiple installations of gtk can be used and utilized
but the emacs plugins you’ll need are (and you’ll need to connect to Melpa using list-packages https://melpa.org/#/getting-started to have these automatically downloaded and configured):
company
company-c-headers
flycheck
flycheck-pkg-config
exec-path-from-shell (this allows x11emacs to read the shells configuration, may be option for terminal based emac uses)
optional: function-args-mode, but when fa-show-auto is used, it breaks themes in emacs
download all of them through M-x list-packages (which means pressing alt+x, macOS option+x, which should issue an input on the bottom of emacs, where the status bar is), after that, type list-packages or use auto completion, aka ctrl+tab to cycle through possible candidates
open a c file (C-f ~/test.c) (which is control+x, macOS control+x)
type in:
M-x semantic-mode
M-x semantic-customize-system-include-path
in semantic-customize-system-include-path, add the path to the gtk version you intend to develop for, in my case /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gtk4/4.16.12/include/gtk-4.0 using the text based interface; you should be able to use your mouse (click ins after where it says /usr/include. semantic is included in emacs. options are automatically saved at command)
M-x exec-path-from-shell-initialize
M-x flycheck-mode
M-x flycheck-pkg-config
in flycheck-pkg-config, press enter, and then type the name of the version of gtk that provides valid input from pkg-config (ie gtk4)
M-x global-company-mode
if you need to bind ctrl+tab to auto complete, you can add this to your config (~/.emacs.d/init.el)
(global-set-key (kbd “C-”) ‘company-semantic)
this will do most of the grunt work when plugins are installed (ctrl-tab shows a window to auto complete, ctrl+` (thats the key before 1, with shift it becomes ~) shows function argument. fa-show-auto automatically shows function prototypes, but can break emacs themes:
(require ‘package)
(add-to-list ‘package-archives ‘(“melpa” . “https://melpa.org/packages/”) t)
;; Comment/uncomment this line to enable MELPA Stable if desired. See package-archive-priorities
;; and package-pinned-packages. Most users will not need or want to do this.
;;(add-to-list ‘package-archives ‘(“melpa-stable” . “https://stable.melpa.org/packages/”) t)
(package-initialize)
(global-company-mode t)
(global-flycheck-mode t)
(semantic-mode t)
(function-args-mode)
(global-company-mode t)
(global-flycheck-mode t)
(semantic-mode t)
(function-args-mode)
(global-set-key (kbd “C-”) ‘company-semantic)
(global-set-key (kbd “C-`”) ‘fa-show)
if you need to compile from inside emacs, I would make a Makefile according to the gtk tutorial on gtk.org
I also have another article on getting Xcode to work with gtk, which is more reliable: https://unix-world.com/2025/01/25/getting-gtk4-to-work-in-xcode-with-auto-complete-and-syntax-highlighting/
website is unix-world.com and I welcome any and all traffic !
On wake from sleep the Mac Studio's Desktop picture is shown in actual resolution instead of stretched to fit screen. For example, a picture which is 2059 × 1371 is shown at that resolution on a 5K Retina screen and so only fills about 60% of the screen area. It starts with the picture positioned in the top left corner but sometimes moves down the screen. This behaviour does not change if the screen is scaled up or down – the picture size is also scaled.
Notice that icons on the Desktop are displayed in the correct position.
At the same time, the Dock is shown at the bottom of the picture instead of at the bottom of the screen.
Usually, the Desktop redisplays correctly. But increasingly, the only solution is to log out and in again.
This might be related to my other question on the Desktop picture Pref Pane.
See attached example which is a full screen capture i.e. command-shift-3 (with my personal details obscured):
“At this rate, I’m starting to get frustrated. I’ve registered for the developer program twice, but they’re still asking me for the registration fee, and my registration is not being approved. Moreover, I haven’t received any response to my emails, and since the information is limited in English, I can’t search for solutions. Could someone please take care of this issue now?”
