Enrollment Blocked: "Identity Cannot Be Confirmed" - Support Says Decision is Final
Hello, I'm hoping to find a solution for a persistent enrollment issue and would appreciate any advice from the community. For several months, I have been unable to enroll in the Apple Developer Program. The automated system rejected my application, stating my identity could not be verified. This first occurred in December 2023. I have contacted Apple Support and spoken with a Senior Advisor. I explained that I am willing to provide any documentation needed to verify my identity (passport, driver's license, etc.), but was told this was not possible. The advisor stated the decision from the automated system is final and the issue cannot be escalated or resolved. This has put my app, which is fully developed and ready for submission, on indefinite hold. Has anyone else encountered this specific "identity verification" block where support states the decision is final? Is there a known workaround, a different department to contact, or any other path to get this reviewed by a human? Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi everyone, I submitted the required documents to upgrade my Apple Developer account from Individual to Company via the D-U-N-S and identity verification forms. It's been a long time, but I haven’t received any response or update from Apple yet. The status is still “waiting for review.” We are ready to test and upload our apps, but we’re blocked until the account is converted. Has anyone else experienced this delay recently? If you’ve been through this and have any advice, I’d really appreciate your help or insights. Thanks in advance.

WeatherKit - conditionCode rules
Hello, We’re using the Apple WeatherKit API in our application and would like to better understand how the conditionCode field is determined in the hourly data. In particular, we have encountered cases where both rain and strong winds occurred within the same hour, but the conditionCode returned was related to wind (e.g. windy), even though rain was present and more relevant to our use case. Could you please clarify: What is the logic or prioritization used by WeatherKit when selecting the conditionCode for an hourly period that includes multiple weather events? Is rain ever prioritized over wind in this field? If so, under what conditions? Since precipitation has more impact for our analyses and decision-making than wind, understanding how this field is computed is important for us. Thank you in advance for your help. Best regards,

Ongoing Support Failure – Repeated Case IDs, No Resolution
I’ve submitted several requests over the past days to get help updating the corporation information on my existing, paid Apple Developer account. So far, all I’ve received are automated emails saying “Thanks for contacting Apple Support”—each with a new case ID, but no actual progress. I even tried requesting a phone call multiple times, but that too just resulted in the same meaningless email with yet another case number. Not a single person has contacted me, and the issue remains completely unresolved. This is deeply frustrating and unacceptable, especially when the matter is time-sensitive. It feels like all support channels are shut off. I'm honestly shocked at how unresponsive and ineffective Apple Developer Support has become. I need urgent, human help. How do I escalate this beyond automated replies? Would appreciate if someone from Apple or the community can point me in the right direction. Case ID: 102660240710 Case ID: 102659341033 Case ID: 102660088312 case ID: 102653904957 case ID: 102655915128

StoreKit2 Transaction.updates 线上返回大量已 finish 的历史订单(甚至是 2024 年的)
我们在生产环境中通过日志监控,发现部分线上用户出现了如下异常行为: Transaction.updates 突然一次性返回大量历史订单(我们看到几十甚至上百条)。 这些订单的 purchaseDate 显示为很早之前(最早甚至是 2024 年),并且我们系统中已经确认这些订单早就处理过并调用过 transaction.finish()。 这些历史订单并未重新发生购买或恢复。 同一时间调用 Transaction.unfinished 并未返回这些订单,说明它们在系统状态中也不是未完成交易。 这不是个例,在多个用户设备上都捕获到了类似情况。

Developer Program Membership Purchased – No Access to Benefits
Hi everyone, I recently purchased the Apple Developer Program membership. The payment was successful, and Apple Support confirmed that I already have a membership (Case ID: 102656430038). However, my account still doesn’t show any developer privileges, and I’m unable to access the program features. When I try to re-purchase, I get a message saying I already have a membership. Later, I received a message from Developer Support stating that my enrollment couldn’t be completed, with no clear explanation. Has anyone else faced this issue? What could be the reason, and how can I resolve it? If I can’t use the program, I’d like to know how to get a refund or what steps to take for a successful enrollment next time. Thanks, Satvir Singh

"Metal developer tools for Windows" may sometimes freeze when running multiple instances simultaneously.
We executed the iOS package using UE5.5 on Windows. UE automatically launched the "Metal Developer Tools for Windows". I tried two versions, 5.3 and 4.4. I found that the metal.exe sometimes had no response or output was empty. The problem of no response could be alleviated by adding timeout retries, but the problem of empty output seemed to have no effect with retries. The actual command line called was: metal.exe -v --target=air64-apple-darwin18.7.0. UE relies on this output to determine the version number, and if it cannot get it, it will crash directly. During our replication test, we used a Python script to run multiple concurrent executions of the command "metal.exe -v --target=air64-apple-darwin18.7.0". On different Windows machines, it would get stuck at a certain concurrency level. Some machines even got stuck when running two tasks concurrently. We would like to ask for solutions or available versions.

Can't figure out first subscription
I have created my first subscription and pay wall, everything works 100% in testing, however when it comes to launching to Apple for review I feel like I get caught up in a chicken and egg issue which never resolves. When the product goes in to waiting for review it can no longer be displayed or fake purchased on my Superwall paywall. If it doesn't display apple can't approve and this goes on and on. If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know.

Enrollment Stuck: "Your enrollment is being processed" for 12 Days
Hello Apple Developer Support / Community, I’m reaching out for help regarding my Apple Developer Program enrollment. It’s been 12 days since I submitted all the required documents (photo ID, business verification, and company registration documents. I also replied to the email as instructed. Seven days ago, I received a response from a Senior Advisor saying the case was being reviewed and that I’d receive a reply soon—but nothing since then. The status still shows "Your enrollment is being processed." This delay is now affecting my business operations and launch timelines. I’ve done everything required—uploaded all documents, responded to support emails—but no progress or updates. Has anyone experienced similar delays? Is there any way to escalate this? Thank you in advance for any advice or assistance. Best regards, Gustave

Stuck after Master Developer Account was enrolled in Apple Business Domain
Hi All, Posting here after completely spinning our wheels with Apple Business Support AND Apple Developer Support thus far. Problem: Our team of Developers have been using Corporate e-mail addresses (companyname.com) as Apple Developer Accounts. A couple of months ago we enrolled in Apple Business and enrolled our .com domain under management. Developers and others were given 30 days to enroll their accounts manually at the end of which it would be done automatically. One of our Developers did the manual transition with the result that his Developer Account "came with him" i.e. signing certificates and whatnot. Our Master Developer - my term, sorry if incorrect reference to the primary Developer Account - did nothing and his e-mail address but not his Developer Account was "forcibly" enrolled. The result being that he lost access to his Developer Account. Apple Support explained that the Developer Account had automatically been assigned a temporary access in the format "user dot name-company dot com at temporary.appleaccount.com". Great, all the Developer needs to do is to log in and follow the immediate prompting to assign a new valid e-mail address. Unfortunately, any address that the User enters is accepted and a verification code is expected. But no verification code is ever received. Not in our Corporate e-mail gateway under a working alias, not in other private accounts. Not in Spam, Junk etcetera. Something is inhibiting the change. The Developer is now stuck because he cannot log in in order to create his own support ticket. I have done so on his behalf, explained clearly the issue, received a link to an open page that does not require authentication, and he created a new ticket. The response comes again back from L1 Support on how to recover or change your login e-mail. Absolutely no recognition of the problem that has been clearly and repeatedly documented. (Bangs head against wall in frustration.) Questions: Is this Problem Description clear? If not PLEASE ask for clarification! Does anyone recognise this issue? Does anyone have a solution OR a way to reach the appropriate level in Apple Developer Support SO THAT our key Certificates etcetera that are no longer accessible in this "blocked" account can be recovered! Thanks for reading ☺
