Apple Developer Enrollment — I'm the LLC Owner but Getting Upload Error
Hey everyone, I’m trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as a company (LLC), and I’m the sole owner and CEO. I uploaded all the documents required, but when I try to re-upload the missing one using their upload link, I get this error message: “Sorry, you don’t have access. Your account isn’t authorized to upload files.” Has anyone faced this before? Is there a fix or do I need to contact Apple directly? Also, they’re asking for a business card or an employment verification letter — but I’m the owner and don’t have either. How do you handle this if you’re the only person in the LLC? Do I just create a business card or write the verification letter myself? Any help or advice would be much appreciated. 🙏 Thanks in advance!

Developer Account Enrollment Delayed Over a Month After Re-Submission – No Updates
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a frustrating delay with my Apple Developer Program enrollment and I’m hoping someone here can help or escalate the issue. I had previously completed the enrollment process and was approved, but after opening the Apple Developer app on my iPad, the entire progress reset for some reason. I was forced to start the process again from scratch, including submitting all required documents. Last time, my documents were verified and approved within 7 days. However, this time, it’s been over a month since I submitted my documents and there's been no progress. I contacted Apple Developer Support, but they responded saying it would take an “undetermined amount of time,” without providing any explanation, timeline, or guidance. That’s extremely concerning, especially since I’ve already gone through this once before. This delay is affecting my ability to move forward with game releases and business plans. I’m more than willing to provide any additional documentation if needed, but I’m currently stuck with no idea what’s going on. Can someone from the Apple team please: Check the status of my enrollment using Enrollment ID: 772673548 Let me know if there are any issues that require action from my side Or help escalate this for review? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Shamsad M

Once my membership renewed, i couldn't compile my apps due to signing error. here is the error message: Xcode archive done. 31.7s Failed to build iOS app Error (Xcode): Communication with Apple failed: Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/ /Users/tony/vn246/ios/Runner.xcodeproj when I go to the portal developer.apple.com/account to create the Provisioning Profile manually then it said there is no device, and when i go into the Devices section then the machine uuid is added and it's there and registered, i had always been compiling with it before the old membership was expired.

Communication problems with Apple
Hello, About 7-8 months ago, I received an e-mail stating that my apple developer account would be deleted after 30 days, and my account was deleted after 30 days. I tried to contact many times, I got hopeful each time, but the Apple team never gave a full explanation. They always responded saying they would be interested, but it never came to fruition. In fact, I was most excited when I received the following e-mail: Hello Oğuzcan, My name is Joel, and I’m a senior Advisor with Developer Support. Your case has been given to me for further handling, and I’m happy to follow up with you today. I understand that you have initiated a conversation in our developer forums. Please, provide us more information and show us the email that you received, so we will assist your better. Please, reply to the received email for obtaining more information as the appropriate team will be able to assist you better. Please, reply to this email if you have further questions. Have a great day. Best Regards, Joel Developer Support I was very hopeful when I read that he was a Senior Advisor. This e-mail came on July 28, 18:17, today is December 8, 2025. I'm giving up hope now, my account won't be opened again. My members ask why there are no iOS versions of my applications, this is very difficult for me. Does anyone have any recommendations? I filled out forms and created requests many times.

Membership migration from an individual to an organization
Hey guys, did someone tried recently to migrate membership from an individual to an organisation? I initiated the process on 1st of May, and as final step sent confirmation documents on 7th of May. Since then I don't have any updates, tried to contact support, but they said that they can't help as legal team is reviewing. So I wanted to ask is it ok to wait for 6 weeks? I thought this would take 2-4 weeks

Not receiving invitation for developer account
Hi to whom it may concern, My company has hired an outsource to help us in developing our mobile app. But the person haven't received any invitation email to create developer account for their email company domain. The outsource company has checked with their infra team, either the invitation email was blocked, but it wasn't. Is there any solution for this? as summary my current company is inviting an outsource that used their company email to create developer account. but the email hasn't reached their end.

Unable to Complete Apple Developer Enrollment – No Response After Payment
Developer Tools & ServicesHello, I’m trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual, but I’ve run into repeated issues and haven’t received any response or confirmation. Here’s what I’ve tried: I created a new Apple ID with my real name (first and last name). Enabled two-factor authentication. Verified that my billing and shipping addresses are complete. Tried enrolling both from the web and from the Apple Developer app on an iPhone. Used multiple valid credit and debit cards (Visa and Mastercard). Waited over 48 hours for confirmation or email—still nothing. No charges appear on my bank account either. I submitted a support request via the official Developer Support page but haven’t received any reply. I’m located in TUNISIA, and my Apple ID region matches my billing info and card. At this point, I’m unsure what’s going wrong or if my enrollment is blocked. Has anyone else faced this issue? Any advice on how to proceed or get a response from Apple? Thank you in advance. Best regards

Confirmation on the Use of MDM Vendor CSR Certificates in On-Premises MDM Solutions
We are developing an MDM solution. In addition to the cloud-based version, we are also developing an on-premises version of the MDM solution for organizations such as government agencies and other entities for whom using public cloud services is difficult. In such cases, regarding the "MDM vendor CSR certificate" to be included in the on-premises package: Would it be acceptable to use a certificate owned by our company (the MDM vendor)? Or would it be necessary for the client organization to prepare a new certificate themselves?

NotaryTool submissions stuck at “In Progress”
Summary Several notarization submissions have remained in the In Progress state for many hours. I’d like to confirm whether this is expected behavior and what steps I can take to resolve or re-submit safely. Command used xcrun notarytool submit "/Users/.../MortiseAI-arm64.dmg" --keychain-profile "mai_publish" --wait Submission history (excerpt) createdDate: 2025-11-06T22:52:12.019Z id: 4254d623-**** name: MortiseAI-arm64.dmg status: In Progress createdDate: 2025-11-06T13:00:28.016Z id: c7397c1c-**** name: MortiseAI-arm64.dmg status: In Progress createdDate: 2025-11-06T11:24:12.624Z id: 44bcbab2-**** name: MortiseAI.zip status: In Progress (Several other submissions show the same In Progress status.) Questions Are there known reasons that could cause notarization requests to remain in In Progress for an extended time? What is the recommended method to cancel these pending submissions and safely re-submit? Are there diagnostic steps (for example, xcrun notarytool log ) that can help analyze this issue? Notes • Using --wait with a keychain profile. • Will provide additional environment or Xcode details if needed. Thanks in advance for your help!

Stuck in Notarization Queue for 6 days
Hi all, I hope you are doing well. Just wanted to reach out to see if anyone could help me with my macOS app which has been stuck in the notarization queue for 6 days so far. I had two other apps that were approved pretty much instantly but this one is the biggest and most complex by far. createdDate: 2026-01-06T17:42:21.396Z id: bc5d110c-42e8-4654-a14f-95be9249ddd4 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress createdDate: 2026-01-06T23:51:30.914Z id: 4587bced-fefc-4d79-bc07-cdb1655b2304 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2026-01-06T20:38:44.636Z id: 4df21b51-61f6-42f1-89cd-226c8fd35100 name: S1_notarize.zip status: In Progress These three are essentially the same with small bug fixes.

Urgent: Org Enrollment Escalated to Higher Review (Docs Submitted 11/27) – Delaying Launch for 4K+ Waitlisted Users
Hi Apple Developer Community and Support Team, I'm reaching out for advice and potential escalation on a stalled organization enrollment that's blocking our app launch. Here's a quick timeline: Initial enrollment hit issues with D-U-N-S verification (now resolved) and email code delivery, leading to multiple failed attempts and temporary blocks. After unblocking via support, we resubmitted and were directed to higher department review. Submitted all required docs (company formation, passport/ID, etc.) on Wednesday, November 26, 2025. No updates since—it's now Day 6 with zero communication on ETA. This is critically urgent for our business: We have ~4,000 users pre-registered and waiting to download our personal development app (focused on habit-building and goal tracking). Projections show another 10,000 sign-ups in the next two weeks alone, pushing us to 15,000+ if resolved soon. These folks are already investing—our physical planners (promoting the app) are selling via Amazon and our website, http://www.freedommastery.com selling Life planners) and they're expecting seamless iOS access on launch day. Every day of delay risks churn, lost revenue, and momentum in a competitive space. I've followed up via phone/email multiple times, but frontline support can't provide timelines or status. Enrollment ID: [Redact or insert your anonymized ID here for tracking]. Has anyone navigated a similar higher-review holdup? Tips for bumping priority (e.g., additional proof of urgency like waitlist data)? Any rough ETAs from recent org approvals? Grateful for any insights—Apple's ecosystem is key to our growth, and we'd love to get these users onboard ASAP. Thanks in advance!
