macos system error
Under multiple display screens (left and right screens), when a commonly used app application clicks "Window" -> "Move to..." When it comes to this, the app cannot be completely moved to the other window but instead moves to the middle of the two Windows for display. Is this a bug of the system?

iOS 26 Beta 2 replaces iOS 18.4 Backup
After too many boot loops and inability to boot up at all from system data bloating, I decided to restore the iPhone 16 Pro Max I’m beta testing on back to iOS 18.4 for a third time. Unfortunately, I found the iOS 26 beta 2 had made a iCloud backup last night, replacing my 18.4 backup. Is this something betas are supposed to do? I’ve been beta testing for around a decade now, I’ve never seen a iOS beta make an iCloud backup. Is anyone else noticing excessive system data bloating (70-100 GB or more)? Regardless, I’m in it for the long game now 😂

unable to find module dependency : 'minizip'
I downloaded Xcode Beta 26 and built the POS code repository project. However, an error appeared: unable to find the module dependency 'minizip'. No changes have been made to the repository since upgrading to iOS 18.0. Is this a new issue with Xcode 26, and what are the resolution steps?

Bricked iPhone after Installing iOS 26 Beta
So I downloaded and installed iOS26 on my iPhone 15 Pro and after that it does not want to boot anymore. It shows a battery with one red line. Which is weird because before it restarted it had 80% of the battery and I had the power cable connected at all time. Now I can't boot it up anymore. Not even with the volume button up, down, power button trick. Please help!

iPhone 13 Pro not charging or recognized via USB-C after iOS 26 update (works in DFU mode)
Hi everyone, Since updating my iPhone 13 Pro to iOS 26, the device stopped charging and is not recognized by my Mac when connected via USB-C to Lightning cable. I’ve run extensive diagnostics: • Tried multiple USB-C cables and ports on the Mac — all work with other iPhones and devices. • The iPhone charges fine using a wall charger. • It also works perfectly with USB-A to Lightning cables — charges and appears in Finder. • I performed a full DFU restore and downgrade to iOS 18, without restoring from backup — the issue persists. • Interestingly, the iPhone is detected by the Mac in DFU mode via USB-C, which suggests the USB-C port is physically fine. This leads me to believe the issue is with the USB-C stack in normal iOS runtime, possibly triggered or corrupted by the iOS 26 update. It’s not hardware-related, as data and power lines work in DFU, and USB-A connections work normally. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any way to fully reset or reflash the USB-C firmware at a lower level than DFU? Or does this require AST2-level diagnostics from Apple? Thanks in advance!

CGPDFDocument Rendering Issue with Custom Fonts in iOS 18
we’ve identified that our PDF rendering pipeline leverages the native CGPDFDocument APIs to convert PDF pages into images. However, in the latest release of iOS 18, the provided document fails to render even at the CGPDFDocument level. Our analysis suggests that the issue may stem from the embedded custom fonts not being correctly processed in this version of the iOS platform. This appears to be consistent with several other reports and discussions around font rendering problems introduced in iOS 18, particularly involving subset fonts. We’ve attached a collection of relevant community threads and references, including: Apple Developer Discussion: Subset Font Rendering Issue in iOS 18 Given that our implementation is tightly coupled with Apple’s native PDF rendering APIs, this issue presents a blocking limitation for us. With your permission, we would like to use this document as a sample case to formally report the issue through the appropriate Apple Developer forums and feedback channels.

watchOS 26 cause Battery drain fast
After the last OS26 developer beta update the watch series 6 battery drains fast, in less than two hours life. I visited Apple Store , they said the battery was dead so I had to buy new watch series 10 The same issue happened in the new watch, the battery meter shows 50% after 1 hour Right now I’ve downgraded my update version to beta 11 until I can find a solution

Notes App Self Scrolls
I just filed a bug report for the Notes app as follows:Area: Notes Summary: When opening Notes with content that is larger than the open Notes App window, and attempting to edit the note, the entire note content scrolls automatically to the top although the cursor remains where text editing was inserted. Typing on the Smart Keyboard will allow text entry however the note insistently keeps scrolling to the top regardless of how often or how much text is entered into the note. Scrolling the note manually with your touch will stop the action from occurring, however that is intermittent and sometimes will scroll automatically as well. This issue will occur on both iPad and iPhone and regardless of the app is used full screen on the iPad or in Split Screen. When the Notes window is not focused and the user is engaging an app in the other split screen window, the Note window does not scroll, only when it is the focused App. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Notes2. Begin to edit the note by scrolling down and selecting text or placing your cursor to enter text.3. More likely to happen with a note which has enough text to enable scrolling of the note.Expected Results: The note body of text should not scroll while editing or entering text and should remain where placed either by scrolling to the place of entry with using touch or with moving the cursor with the direction keys of the Smart Keyboard. Actual Results: The note scrolls on its own without intervention. Version: IOS Beta 10.0(14A5261v) Configuration: iPad Pro 12.9" and iPhone 6S both with iOS beta 10.0

There was an error processing your request. Please try again later
Hello everyone, on August 31st, all the apps in my personal developer account were suddenly expired and deleted, I have not received any response from Apple. My apps are in compliance with Apple's policies. I then uploaded a new version and sent it to the review team, but I received the following error "There was an error processing your request. Please try again later." I have contacted Apple via Email and Phone but no one cares about my problem. Has anyone had the same situation as me, I am really worried.

MDM Behind Nginx SSL Cert Issue
I'm trying to make my own MDM server and I'm having trouble allowing nginx to proxy the connection. The web app I'm making can accept http requests so I require nginx. I'm using a certificate from letsencrypt. Every time I try to enroll a phone it instantly rejects at nginx. I have tried multiple cipher options in nginx. I found the following link and my cert supports all except the DHE ones but they say you only need 1.
