Hey everyone. This is probably the last straw I am trying to pull since I tried almost everything else. I have applied for the Apple Developer Program and the whole process started at the end of 2024. I got rejected the first time because Apple could not charge my card. It was clearly shown that the cost is $99, however, it was 106.65 Euros (I created a Revolut card with the $100 because I don't trust placing my card everywhere). I started the new process but this time I knew about the amount issue so I placed 150 Euros just to be safe. Automatic rejection with robotic AI response: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time." When I raised ticket about it I got no replies. Than both my friend and wife tried to apply for the program. Both rejected with the exact same messaging. I created a new Apple ID, new card, new everything and did everything "by the book". Again. Rejection with the same exact messaging: For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time... Can someone from Apple please tell me what are those reasons? I have been an Apple user for almost 10 years now. I was buying Apps from store. I am using iCloud+. Modest Citizen as some would say. What's the problem? How can I finally get to Apple Developer Program without being rejected by AI or some poor auto system?

Hi, I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program for my current company. Everything seemed fine, but since yesterday, I keep encountering an 'Unknown Error' when I try to complete the enrollment. I've checked my internet connection, updated my device, and tried multiple browsers, but the issue persists. Has anyone experienced this before or have suggestions on how to resolve it?

Hi, I paid for the developer program membership more than 2 days ago. Nothing is happening, though. I wrote to support twice, but nothing as well. What's going on? I read few posts here and it seems like a normal thing.

I applied for the Apple Developer Program on February 4, 2025, and uploaded the required documents on February 5, 2025. However, as of today (February 26, 2025), I have not received any update or response regarding my application. I have already sent two emails regarding this matter but have not received a reply. I would appreciate an update on my application status and any further actions required on my end to complete the process. How to reach apple support?

I have updated my iPhone 15 pro max to 18.4 yesterday. Some apps are not connecting to internet and some apps are not loading. i have tried to turn off find my option so I could restore the phone to 18.3 but It stays on. Any solution to restore my phone back to 18.3 or an update fix?

So i just started developing ios apps where i recently purchased macbook, i tried to create developer account got saying i cannot create the acount as of now.

I received an email from Apple saying they couldn't auto-renew my developer subscription, due to a "billing error." I went in and deleted my lone payment method (which looked up-to-date), and created a new one for the same credit card in my developer account for billing. All the information appears correct. I've downloaded the Developer app, where it tells me my developer subscription is good through next month. There's a Renew button underneath. If I click on it, an alert says either "Unknown Error" (first time after launching), or it says "Unable to Continue. Please ensure your device and iCloud account meet our system requirements. Visit https://developer.apple.com/support/app-account/" (subsequent times). These are near-useless error messages. Which doesn't sound like a billing error. I don't pay anything for an iCloud account, nor wish to use an iCloud account. I'm running System 12.1 on my M1 MacBook Pro. After an hour of talking with three different humans at 1-800-MY-APPLE, they couldn't help, basically giving up and telling me to go to developer.apple.com/support/technical. But that's for submitting a TSI (Technical Support Incident) for my own needs as a developer, not for Apple's uninformative software. All I want to do is renew my developer subscription. Something's obviously wrong, but the automated system isn't providing enough information to continue, and the humans at the other end of the phone don't have enough information to help. The last guy I talked with threw up his hands, apologizzed, and then wished that I have a "good day." Any suggestions?

This typo appears in a two docs I can find. Is there a better way to notify Apple about this, than making a post here> https://developer.apple.com/help/account/membership/program-enrollment/ https://developer.apple.com/documentation/enterpriseprogramapi/users Also appears in some legacy docs, but that probably matters less: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/LegacyTechnologies/WebObjects/WebObjects_4.0/System/Library/Frameworks/EOControl.framework/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/Reference/Java/EOControl.Java.pdf

My clients are waiting.. i had to give them some excuses and discounts... everything is ready from my side but the enrollment is delayed already more than 1 month. The support did replay after 1 week , all they did was to withdraw my enrollment and tell me to try again , and back to point zero... and I'm waiting... I did try to open two accounts , one personal and one for organization so i can at least give my clients their app. now I'm checking both accounts daily basis . oh you may wounder what happened with support ? they did answer fallow my case a little but didn't provide a solution , and then stopped responding... I'm losing money, time and hope to this system.

I have purchased the membership a few times now on the same account. Still have not recieved refunds either for the purchases. However I only receive an email confirming my purchase saying "your order is being processed" and no other emails. Underneath the email I receive there is a link to accessing my account, which I press and it takes me to the app developer website where it just says my account is pending and to finish my enrollment. Furthermore I press this "finish my enrollment" button and taken straight back to a payment portal to pay for the subscription again. I did end up doing this a couple of times thinking maybe it didn't charge me the first time, however after checking my back...it did charge me each time. Can anyone help please, there is no call support for Apple developers and they won't respond to my emails.

Hello, I’ve been trying for months to access my Apple Developer account, but unfortunately, I keep getting redirected to the "We’ll be back soon" page. I’ve checked the server status, and everything appears to be fine. I’ve also tried common troubleshooting steps like clearing my browser cache, disabling any VPNs, and trying different devices and networks, but none of these solutions have worked. How can I reactivate my account? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

We are currently experiencing the following: Developers who are invited to Appstore Connect in the "Administrator" role and are members of the development team no longer have access to the team's developer resources at https://developer.apple.com Even after deleting the user and a new invitation, there is no access to the developer resources. The problem has existed since yesterday and can be traced in several developer accounts.

So I just managed to build one app for personal use that I want to use daily in my iphone. However, once installed in my device through XCode, after one week the application is no longer available. I'm aware about the one week trial for free users and one year for a paid account, but... for real? Isn't there an alternative? And if not... does it means that in order to use my app for let's say 5 years I will have to pay 500$? Is just a bit crazy to think about it but I did look on the internet and did not found a clear information about how this works. Thank you in advance :)

Hi everyone, I transitioned my Apple Developer account from Individual to Organization almost two weeks ago, and ever since, I cannot upload builds, generate API keys, or create certificates. Everything worked perfectly before the transition, and I’ve used the same setup. The biggest issue isn’t just the technical problem—it’s Apple Support’s terrible handling of it: They keep copy-pasting the same request for information, even though I’ve sent everything multiple times. When I call, they say "Everything looks good on our end", but nothing is actually fixed. After asking for the same info repeatedly, they disappear and don’t provide any updates. The only unusual thing in my account is that I have two Free Apps Agreements, and one is showing on "Pending User Info", but I have no option to input anything. I have accepted all agreements and not sure what to do. It’s been two weeks. Has anyone dealt with this before? How do I get someone at Apple to actually look at the issue instead of sending copy-paste responses? Thanks.

Hi! I was wondering when the maintenance of the Apple Developer website will end as I need to register a new App ID for my project. I know that WWDC just ended, but is there an estimate for this?

I've been contacting Apple Developer support since last Friday because I am trying to open an individual apple developer account. I have opened 2 or 3 tickets and tried paying the $99 fee 2 times, 2 times I wasn't charged at all. I haven't got any reply to the support tickets and I don't know what to do... my request id 102537013023

I have been trying to complete my enrollment in the Apple Developer Program, but I keep encountering issues with the payment process. I’ve attempted the payment multiple times using the Apple Developer app and have tried several bank cards. These cards are valid and have been successfully used for other online and international purchases, but the payment for the program is not being processed, and no amount is deducted. I received a response from Developer Support suggesting I reenroll using the app, but despite following this advice, I am still unable to complete the process. As a startup online institute, this delay is affecting our teachers and students, and we urgently need this resolved. Has anyone else faced this issue, and are there any specific steps or alternative solutions that worked for you? Any guidance from the community or Apple representatives would be greatly appreciated. If needed, I am available for further discussion Thank you for your support! [Personal Information Edited by Moderator]

Hello, I am inviting the users to access our Apple Developer Program as the owner of an account. However when the invited users try to sign-up, they get error as : "Your primary email address cannot end in @domain.com. Choose a different email address" How to resolve this ?

When I try to cancel it I get "Your request is temporarily unable to be processed. Please try again". I have since created a new test user from "Users and access", set the renewal for subscriptions to be at 5min. Added the new test user on my iPad where I am developing locally as a sandbox account, and then purchased the same subscription. And same problem happened - I can't cancel it from Apple ID -> Subscriptions. Getting the very same error. Also the subscription there seems to renew on a daily base and not on every 5 minute as I have set it. If I try "Clear purchase history" from the "Users and Access" from AppStore connect - nothing happens, I still see the subscription and I can't purchase it again. Please advise how to proceed in this situation. This happens on iOS 15.5 if it does matter and I am using StoreKit2. Regards, Al

I am absolutely shocked and frustrated by the way the Apple Developer Program operates. My team and I recently attempted to launch two completely unique applications through the platform: Goal Hero and Redsport App. Both apps were thoroughly reviewed by our team lead during a code review to ensure they met all the required standards. However, despite all our efforts, Apple repeatedly rejected our submissions without providing clear, actionable feedback. After multiple attempts to communicate and understand the issues, Apple has now banned our developer account entirely and hasn’t responded to any of my inquiries for over a month. We are a legitimate game development studio working under the name Betonred. We’ve always adhered to ethical practices and were excited to expand our business on the App Store after years of success on Google Play. This experience has left us questioning Apple’s commitment to supporting developers, especially smaller teams trying to grow. Honestly, at this point, I am considering restructuring our entire business model to return to focusing solely on Google Play. Apple’s lack of transparency, poor communication, and seemingly arbitrary decisions have made it nearly impossible to work effectively within this ecosystem. Has anyone else faced similar issues? What’s the best course of action here? Apple’s system feels completely broken.
