Hi folks,
First - I'm not a developer.
Some time ago I came across Sequoia Beta and installed it thinking it was just a usage data collection thing.
I recently wanted to delete it because I suspected it was causing other issues, but was only offered to have updates stopped.
My MacBook Pro M2 still says I'm running Sequoia 15.3 (Beta 24D5034f).
I have another, maybe unrelated issue and posted a question about it on Apple Community but the question was deleted and I was pointed here because I mentioned the Beta!
This was my question:
I can FaceTime from the iPhone but when I try to FaceTime from the Mac, I get a notification on the Mac saying:
"iPhone calls not available. Your iPhone is not configured to allow calls using this Mac".
My iPhone is a 14Plus on iOS 18.2.1 (22C161).
I've tried the iPhone and Mac fixes suggested by Apple but no luck there - that was all about turning iMessages and FaceTime off or signing out for both devices, then power cycling both devices.
I don't understand how this is supposed to work.
Could my issue be related to the Beta?
If so, and in any case, how do I remove the Beta?
TIA

My MacBook restarted because of a problem what is wrong with it
I am using an iPhone 14 Pro Max, and I’ve encountered an issue that started when I updated to the public beta of iOS 18.2. Here’s the problem:
Whenever I minimize an app (e.g., WhatsApp, Safari, Chrome, Brave, etc.) while working on something—like typing a message or filling out a form—and receive a call, the app refreshes to its initial state after I return. For example:
If I’m typing a message in WhatsApp, and a call interrupts me, the chat window closes and reverts to WhatsApp’s home screen when I return.
Similarly, if I’m filling out a form in a browser and get a call, the form resets, and I lose all entered data.
If I’m playing a game like Candy Crush and switch to another app without closing the game, it restarts when I return.
If I’m trying to log in to an app that requires authentication through another app (e.g., SEB Bank app using BankID, or Swiss apps that require BankID for verification), the login process fails because the original app refreshes and loses its state when I switch back.
Initially, I thought this might be due to having Developer Mode enabled, so I turned it off. Then I assumed it could be related to the beta version of iOS, so I waited for the stable release. I have since turned off beta updates and updated to the stable version of iOS, but the issue persists.
Interestingly, I noticed the same behavior while using iOS 17 as well.
Is there anything I can do to fix this problem and prevent apps from refreshing unexpectedly? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Messaging is missing from CarPlay. Unable to send or receive messages. Not even an option to add it to CarPlay. This is my most heavily used feature while I’m in the car.
I like to suggest a different microphone dot icon for Voice Control. I had customized Voice Control to turn on a Flashlight. This caused confusion with the orange dot being switched on constantly.
I made an error in sending a security vulnerability to Apple Security about the orange dot microphone in always ON mode when iPhone is unlocked.
While setting up the MDM server, I got the following error:
Please tell me what the error is and how to fix it.

Hello I want to report an issue on macOS, I also reported this issue on feedbackassistant, but I didn't get a response from the feedbackassistant. I am sorry it might not be appropriate to post it here, if so, you can move or delete this post or ask me to to so. Thanks.
In short words, Chrome/Edge/Firefox users who manually set the browser as default browser in the macOS System setttings, will lose their default browser setting after browser a upgrade.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Install Chrome Canary, in my case I was using 134.0.6961.0. After installation, open it from launchpad, but don't set it as the default browser in the browser
(2) Go to macOS's system settings, search Deafult Web Browser, set the new installed Chrome Canary as default browser
(3) Go to Chrome Canary's Settings->About Chrome
(4) Wait for Chrome update information to be updated (it will auto update to the latest version)
(5) Check result of system default browser. Click a link from Notes, it will navigate to Safari.
What is the expected result?
System default browser should not change
What happens instead?
The System default browser changed to the topmost browser of the brower list in system settings. Click a link from Notes, it will be opened in Safari.
Notes
This bug also happens on Firefox and Edge, it should be a macOS bug.
This bug is similar to https://issues.chromium.org/issues/346505950
Looks like after installation, macOS recognize the newly installed version of browser as a new browser, even though the signature of the application remained the same.
In Local Network of macOS settings, some Edge users see multiple entries with the same name.
What is the safest way to rename a project so the app still works using Xcode 14.2. I’ve seen instructions using earlier versions of Xcode but with the latest version it’s a bit confusing.

Can anyone help me rename my project safely using 16.2. I looked around but only found help for earlier versions?

help me how to fix this issue !!
I just got a new 2024 Macbook Pro today. I finished setting it up, and I'm trying to reinstall a few apps. It told me that since I haven't used my Apple ID yet, I need to complete my Apple account. I've entered all my address information, but every time I hit continue, the boxes turn red, telling me I need to enter my information as if I never entered it in the first place. How can I fix this? I need to set this computer up before classes tomorrow.
I mean it literally says that it takes up to 48 hours to process, but I still remain at a "PENDING" state.
It's not my first time enrolling and from my past experiences it was pretty seamless before. But the most recent one is a disaster.
What the heck?
Has anyone faced a similar problem before?

Hi Apple Developers!
I’m using the DetectBarcodesRequest function to identify QR codes in some images and PDFs.
However, I’m facing an issue where the function doesn’t detect the barcode on certain documents and machines, while it works on others using the same document.
The only common factor I’ve noticed is that the machines that successfully identify the QR code of the “problematic” document are all heavy developer machines that have Xcode installed. Interestingly, this doesn’t seem to be related to processor type (Intel vs. Apple Silicon).
Could you please provide some guidance or leads on how to resolve this issue?
Can someone tell me what this is I found on my iPhone

Dear Developers,
I am wondering if there is a way to build on the current "Low Fuel" notification. Currently, if my low fuel light activates while Carplay is on, a low fuel notification is also sent to my phone. If the car can communicate this, can it also communicate mileage range? This way, if I'm in the middle of a route and the low fuel light engages, Carplay could suggest the nearest gas stations on the route within the remaining mileage range. Any information would be very helpful!

Experiencing frequent automatic restarts on my late 2013 iMac running OS Catalina 10.15.7. Fairly certain that the issue doesn't have to do with my peripherals (external hard drive, flash drives, CD burner) and thinking it's a software issue. Below are the 4 different crash reports I’ve received for OneDriveStandaloneUpdater, Adobe Desktop Service, mds_stores, and mds.
Wondering if anyone has any insights on how to remedy these out of the blue shutdowns based on the crash report info? Thanks in advance...

I purchased an iPad Pro M4 in early December, and since day one, I’ve been experiencing a recurring issue. Almost every day, at random times, the device freezes for 1–5 minutes and then restarts itself.
The tablet is not under heavy load when this happens — I mainly use it for light tasks such as watching videos in a player or Safari browser, web surfing, and reading books. The issue has even occurred while the iPad was idle and locked; it froze, displayed the Apple logo, and rebooted.
I brought the device back to the store where I purchased it, and they sent it for a diagnostic check. However, the experts concluded that the device is fully functional, and no defects were found.
After one of these crashes, I noticed that my Apple Pencil started lagging (see video file IMG_5688.MOV). However, after another reboot, the issue with the Apple Pencil resolved itself.
I’ve documented the issue with several video recordings showing the freezing and rebooting behavior, as well as error logs generated after such incidents.
Device Details:
Model: iPad Pro M4
Usage: Light tasks only (video streaming, web browsing, reading)
Environment: No overheating, no resource-heavy applications running
What could be causing this issue, and how can I resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
P.S. I’ve uploaded all the device logs and videos demonstrating the issue to Google Drive.

Hi Everyone,
I’m currently working on an app that uses NFC functionality, and I’ve hit a roadblock during the App Store review process. The review team has requested a demo video that demonstrates the app’s NFC functionality in use, as per Guideline 2.1.
Here are the details I’ve received from the App Store team:
• The demo video should show the app running on a physical iOS device, not on a simulator.
• It needs to clearly document the NFC-related app features, user permission requests, and how the app interacts with NFC tags.
My Challenges:
1. I’m unsure about the best way to visually capture the NFC interaction, as it involves scanning physical tags.
2. Are there any recommended tools or techniques for recording a demo on an iOS device that complies with Apple’s guidelines?
3. Has anyone successfully submitted an NFC app with a similar requirement? If so, I’d appreciate tips or examples of how you structured your video.
I want to make sure I meet all the necessary requirements so the app passes review. Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Edwin
