Problems Publishing with User Tracking
Hello, I'm trying to publish my app, but I'm constantly getting rejected by Apple. They're telling me I'm having issues with tracking user data. This item has been rejected for the following reasons: 5.1.2 Legal: Privacy - Data Use and Sharing I've indicated that I don't use this data for ads, that it's only used for personalization and to understand who saves items. I added the NSUserTrackingUsageDescription property to the info.plist. I run AppTrackingTransparency.requestTrackingAuthorization() when the user logs into the app, displaying a warning message. I'd say I meet all the requirements they've set for me, but they still haven't approved my app. What do you recommend? How can I speak to a physical person who can help me? Thank you very much and best regards.

Default Browser issue of Edge Mac
OS macOS 15.4.1 What steps will reproduce the problem? (0) Make sure you have other third-party browsers on your computer, and that their names start with a letter before "M", for me it is Arc browser. (1) Install a previous version of Edge Mac Canary (it can be downloaded from official web site:https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/download/insider?cc=1&cs=426423789&form=MA13FJ). If you don't have an older version, you can download and save the current version, and then try the below steps after a day or two. (2) Eject the DMG from the Finder Sidebar. (3) Switch to the System Settings panel, set the "Default web browser" as Edge Mac Canary just installed. (4) Click a URL link from Notes, it will open in Edge Mac Canary. (5) Navigate to "Settings"->"About Microsoft Edge" in Edge and wait for the update information to show that update is complete (it will auto update to the latest version). (6) Check current result of "Default web browser" in System Settings again. What is the expected result? The "Default web browser" should still be Edge Canary. What happens instead? The "Default web browser" in System Settings will change to Arc. But this time, when you click the link from Notes, it will open in Safari, which means that "Default web browser is shown as Arc, but it is actually Safari. It is worth noting that if you start Edge Mac in step (3) and then set it as Default Browser in the "edge://settings/defaultBrowser" page, this problem will not occur after the update is completed. Chrome Mac has the same issue. Other Please see the video (https://youtu.be/ymWAanLqz1Y) for more details.

Looking for suggestions on writing a spreadsheet type app
I’m retired programmer. I did most of my work in C. Did some C++. And Ruby is my favorite language. I did Macintosh development back in 1985 when the first Mac came out and have not done much UI coding since. I did mostly device drivers. I did a lot of Ruby on Rails work from 2007 to 2015. I am considering writing a spreadsheet app. Some items I would like to implement is the ability for what is displayed to be more complex than what Numbers (for example) allows. I would also like to implement the concept of Units like the old HP calculators did. Ultimately I would like users to be able to create functions easily. If possible, I’m leaning towards using Ruby as the language that these functions could be written in but that is just an example. It would be best to assume I’ve not done any macOS development since what little I have done is centuries old. What language would you suggest I use? Are there perhaps a few skeleton applications that I could start from? My main bewilderment is how to create a window, put elements in it, make the elements interactive, etc.

Deleted Playground on Accident
I updated my phone and was unsure why that app was there. I deleted it not thinking anything to find out it was the ai emoji generator. I tried to look it up on the App Store , but had no success on finding it. I’m unsure on what to do to get the app back.😕

Inhouse distributions apps stopped working above iOS 18.1.x
Inhouse distributions apps stopped working after upgrading to version to iOS 18.1.x My issue all is inhouse distributions apps, when I open the application it will force stop. stopped working after upgrading to version 18.1.1. This has happened on multiple iPhones. Some users able use the application on same OS version but application is not working on newly downloaded device. iPhone, then updated to version 18.1.1, they app would not work. We deleted the app and the Enterprise App trust was gone. Then we installed a new version of the app. The phone did not prompt us to trust the Enterprise app again and the app it would open for a second then close. I believe when the app was deleted the Enterprise App was deleted, it’s not actually deleting certificates, because re-installation is not asking to trust certificate again.

Haptic feedback enabled but not working
I have an iPhone 14 with iOS 18 installed on which I noticed the vibration no longer works. The haptic feedback setting is set to "Always on", I have no vibration on notifications, nor on incoming calls and the keyboard feedback does not work either. I also noticed another strange thing: going to the ringtones menu, these do not play if I select them to try them. I tried to update to iOS 18.1 but even with this version I have the same problem. Could it therefore be a hardware problem and not a software problem? Is anyone else having the same problem as me? Thanks

Auto-Lock in iOS 18.4 not working. iPhone 16 Pro
Since updating to iOS 18.4 the auto-lock on iPhone 16 Pro isn’t functioning. All settings remain unchanged from previous versions, however the display will not turn off. Same iOS on my older iPhone 11 doesn’t have the issue and screen turns off as usual with the same system settings. Have tried a force restart on the 16 Pro, nothing changed. Any ideas?

Can no longer detect 2nd display in MacOS Sequoia 15.0.1
I have two monitors connect to my Macbook Air (Apple M1 Chip) via HyperDrive Dual 4K 10-in-1 USB hub. Everything was working flawlessly moment ago, until I update my MacOS. Now, the only display that works is whichever one is plugged into the first HDMI slot on the hub. Additionally when I click on the MacOS Instant View icon, I receive the following pop-up message 'USB Display is not connected. Please connect it and try again' I've attempted everything from unplugging the monitors both from the hub itself as well as the power chord. I've also made sure my drivers were up to date with the latest version of the software. So far nothing has worked. Please be mindful of updating your software....

multidatepicker and saving multiple dates via swiftdata
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Trying to build a calendar/planner app for public school teachers. Classes are held on multiple dates so there is a need for swiftdata to save multiple dates. There are lots of tutorials demonstrating a multidatepicker but none of the tutorials or videos save the dates, via swiftdata. My goal is to save multiple dates. Step 1 is to initialize mockdata; this is done a class called ToDo. var dates:Set = [] Step 2 is the view containing a multidatepicker and other essential code Step 3 is to save multiple dates using swiftdata. Lots of tutorials, code snippets and help using a single date. But after almost 2 weeks of researching youtube tutorials, and google searches, I have not found an answer on how to save multiple dates via swiftdata. Also, I don't know how how to initialize the array of for the mockdata. Here are some code snippets used but the initialization of the array of DateComponenets doesnt work. And saving multiple dates doesn't work either @MainActor @Model class ToDo { var dates:Set<DateComponents> = [] init(dates: Set<DateComponents> = []) { self.dates = dates } } //view struct DetailView: View { @State var dates: Set<DateComponents> = [] @Environment(\.modelContext) var modelContext @State var toDo: ToDo @State private var dates: Set<DateComponents> = [] MultiDatePicker("Dates", selection: $dates) .frame(height: 100) .onAppear() { dates = toDo.dates } Button("Save") { //move data from local variables to ToDo object toDo.dates = dates //save data modelContext.insert(toDo) } } } #Preview { DetailView(toDo: ToDo()) .modelContainer(for: ToDo.self, inMemory: true) }

Ongoing Device Setup ios 18.4 beta
Hi all, after installing ios 18.4 beta here in Europe (and also resetting and restoring my iphone given Apple Intelligence features were not working at all initially) my phone decided to reoptimise my whole photo library which took a while and I understand it was a battery consuming process. Nonetheless, this is all done, all Apple intelligence features supposedly work and my phone is still in ongoing device setup burning through the battery to the point I am sure this will make my battery health drop. does anyone know what is going on (indexing?), how long it will take and why is it happening? Is it because of the 18.4 beta or because of having Apple Intelligence for the first time? can someone please confirm that at the very least this will NOT have to take place again after moving to the official 18.4? thanks
