How do I search for messages on iPhone by date? Running iOS 18.1. In the Spotlight feature, if I type “messages on 10/14” the top 3 results are messages on that date. But if I tap “search in app” I’m brought to a blank messages screen. This function would help me with work so much, and it’s like we’re almost there- but not.
thanks!

I bought the new refreshed AirPods Max 2024 on pre-release day and ever since I got them in has been messed up when using the AirPods Max. Sometimes it’ll work sometimes it won’t. it started while I was on the 18.1 beta which I figured was probably the issue but now I’m on the 18.1 RC and it is still doing it. It’s not the new Siri because it’s not working with old Siri either most of the time. Sometimes it won’t even let me use my microphone when connected or read any of my notifications out loud.
I paid for my developer account on October 2nd, 2024, three weeks ago. Prior to that, I had attempted to make the payment for nearly a month, but the transaction was never completed. It was only when I reached out to a support representative that the issue was resolved, allowing me to successfully make the payment.
Now, I find myself stuck at the “You will receive an email soon” message within the developer app. Unfortunately, Apple has made it impossible for me to contact them by phone again, as phone support is unavailable during business hours. Sending an email also seems futile, as an email I sent 50 days ago has yet to receive a response.

Yesterday I upgraded to IOS 18.1 RC, after the update, I went to the privacy and security section, then went back out and then back in, and a gray background appeared on the selected item, all the items in privacy Privacy and security are all grayed out when I go back in and then click back in. I've updated and reinstalled, but the problem still persists. Does anyone else have the same problem? I use Iphone 15PM, Thanks All!
For years (since I got my M1 MacBook Pro) I've experienced this weird performance degradation. I've tried posting about it to numerous channels, always without a reply. I figured I'd try here.
The symptom is: video playback (of visual frames, not audio; audio is unaffected) stutters if I just let the player play. I'll start a video playing, it will play normally, but if I leave the computer alone to play back, the frame rate will drop dramatically (one or two frames per second, even slower). If I wiggle the mouse (generating events), playback resumes normally. After a few seconds, it will stutter again.
It's as if the computer were throttling back on system clocks or something because there’s no user input.
As you can imagine, this is a frustrating user experience when trying to watch videos.
It doesn't matter if it's a YouTube video playing in Safari, or a WWDC video playing in the WWDC.app or Developer.app, or any other video in QuickTime Player.app.
And it doesn't always happen. I have my own video playback app that doesn't seem to suffer from this, even though it plays multiple videos simultaneously.
I'm on power adapter, and settings are generally set to maximum performance when on power adapter.
Any ideas?

My friend is having issues opening web URLs in apps on macOS 15.0.1 (24A348). In the system settings, the default web browser is DuckduckGo (he hasn't manually set DuckduckGo as the system default web browser), but when he clicks on any URL in other apps, it opens in Safari instead of DuckduckGo.
So we want to know:
Is this is a bug for macOS 15? Maybe the actual default web browser is different from what is shown in the system settings?
Is DuckduckGo automatically changing the default web browser in the background, but not actually working?
One more thing: The DuckduckGo was downloaded from Mac App Store, the bundle identifier is com.duckduckgo.mobile.ios.vpn.agent. Below is the link of recorded video:

I am using iOS 18.1 on an iPhone 16 Pro. Although I am using a SanDisk external hard drive, the iPhone’s Files app is not recognizing the drive properly, and video files are not playing well.

Wake up this morning and see this very concerning sticky message in Notification Center:
bash was prevented from modifying apps
It didn't say what parent program called `bash' so I clicked on the N.C. message to see if there was more information and it just disappeared (as if I had chosen to click on the X to clear the message-I wish I had taken a screenshot first). I have already sent in a request to Apple for them to give more detailed information on events like this. If there is an existing threat on a device it needs to be removed.
The only thing that I know of that happened overnight was a SPAM email from "Norton Antivirus" came into my Gmail Inbox that wasn't filtered as SPAM and macOS announced it in Notification Center. I don't see anything funny in the RAW data of the email - and reported it to spamcop.
Is it possible that a malicious email could contain html code that runs when it's announced via macOS Notification Center?
I once changed my Apple ID. Before changing it, I had set up a passkey for the Apple ID website. After changing my Apple ID, whenever I log in to Apple ID, it still shows my previous Apple ID. Additionally, the passkey for the Apple ID website is not present in my 'Passwords' app, so I am unable to delete it.
How long does it take to deduct the payment from my USD 99 subscription for an Apple developer? I have been waiting for more than a week to be deducted from my credit card.
Hi everybody,
My team and I are currently working on an app that requires us to use localizations for the CFBundleDisplayName property in info.plist. However we are running into some issues ourselves, we need to localise the CFBundleDisplayName property for two specific countries:
Netherlands
Belgium
We've tried to use the String catalog and we've added the corresponding languages/regions there:
nl-BE (CFBundleDisplayName = x)
nl-NL (CFBundleDisplayName = y)
However the nl-BE localization does not seem to be used when changing the device language to Dutch (Belgium). It uses the nl-NL (y) value for the CFBundleDisplayName.
Is it possible to use CFBundleDisplayName localizations for specific regions that use the same language? such as Belgium and the Netherlands. If not I fear that we need to build two apps...
Many issues in terms of usability and glitches.
When reviewing Video clips on the Photos app there is no way to have the full screen view and pause and scroll forward and backward. It only shows the shrunken screen.
When zooming in on a video and scrolling forward and backward it only shows part of the clip, you cannot scroll to the end of the clip. This must be some glitch in the software.
Was any of this app tested beforehand for usability? IOS 18, in general, may be one of the worst releases I've experienced.
This stuff may have been said many times already but my goodness fix the Photos app immediately!!

I am frequently a passenger in the car but we use my phone for CarPlay. Before the latest update, I could still use my phone to send messages, review transcript of voicemail messages and read/send message on Slack while being connected to CarPlay.
However, now am unable to do so. The entire car has to listen to my text message exchange or my work slack messages. I have gone through just about every setting/function in my phone trying to figure out how to get functionality back in my iPhone while being connected to CarPlay but I can't find anything that has worked.
I have tried removing my car from CarPlay and reconnecting it but that did not work.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve been stuck on 24 hours on the wait list to actually use image playground. What the helll do I need to do to get it opened. Do I need to give the big boss a hand job for access. You guys are killing me.

I updated an iPhone 15 Pro Max to iOS 18.2, before I watch some reviews. I noticed that my Mail app did not appear with the sorting functions. Is there anyone with the similar problem?
I applied to Apple for authorization for the following page about 3 weeks ago, but have not received the results yet
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/networkextension/local_push_connectivity
Should I try to submit the application again with the same information or can I wait a little longer?
I would appreciate it if you could give me a little information about the same application or even another authority, such as the time it took to reply to that application.
Here is the actual page I applied for
