Hi, Some time ago I created an Apple Developer business account on behalf of my (now former) business partner. The company is no longer active, and I've been away from app development for a few years. I'd now like to start fresh with a new business account, but first I need to step away from this existing one. From the documentation, I understand that first I have to transfer the Account Holder role, and I've already spoken with the other person - he's willing to accept the role. According to the docs: https://developer.apple.com/help/account/access/transfer-the-account-holder-role/ the option should appear under "Update your information", but in my case there is no option called "Transfer Account Holder role". Has anyone encountered this before? Are there prerequisites or account conditions that need to be met for the transfer option to appear? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Your enrollment is being processed. I've had this message since the 11th of December with no response or update from any one. any assistance would be greatly appreciated. my Enrollment ID: 6CJ2AWBMAU

How long does it usually take for a developer account to be enrolled? I've been pending since the 23th of December.

I have an open NFC Value-Added Services entitlement case (17370116) with Apple Wallet Entitlements. My request was acknowledged, information provided, but the case appears to have been split into duplicates and stalled. Is there a way to have the case consolidated and routed back to the Wallet Entitlements team?

Has anyone gone through the process of migrating your individual account to a business account? I've submitted all the docs a month ago and the application is still pending. It's delaying my business and causing a lot of issue, does anyone know how long does it take? Customer service just ignores you!

We are Chengdu Wang Lida Technology Co., Ltd.. Over the past year, we invested tremendous time, effort, and resources to successfully launch our app on the App Store. However, despite spending a full year developing and finally getting our app approved, just one month after its launch, we suddenly received an email notifying us that our developer account had been suspended for one year due to a violation of Section 3.2(f) (fraudulent behavior). We are deeply confused and disappointed. As developers, we have never engaged in any fraudulent or misleading activities. We have always operated in full compliance with Apple’s Developer Program Agreement and platform guidelines. Our question is: who would deliberately engage in fraudulent behavior after spending an entire year developing and launching an app? What’s even more heart-wrenching is the impact this decision has had on our team. Due to the overwhelming pressure, our project leader suffered a sudden heart attack and was rushed to the ICU. As team members, we are devastated and feel the immense psychological and emotional toll this account suspension has caused. We are now calling on the Apple community and Apple Inc. to help us clarify this misunderstanding and resolve the issue. We firmly believe that such an arbitrary and unfounded account suspension decision should not be made. As developers, we should have the opportunity to communicate and clarify before such drastic actions are taken. We will be filing complaints against Apple’s inexplicable account suspension both on the developer forums and in the media. We will fight this inequality with all we have, and stand for fairness and justice. We are more than willing to cooperate with Apple, providing all the necessary evidence and data to prove that our actions were fully compliant. We sincerely request that Apple review our case and provide a reasonable explanation and solution. As a small development team, we have invested all of our money and effort into this app. It is not just our job; it is our dream. We cannot accept seeing our hard work destroyed by such a misunderstanding. We will continue to fight for fairness and justice, and we hope for a fair resolution. Thank you for your attention and support. We will continue to pursue all legal channels to ensure that our team and our product get the rights they deserve.

J’ai juste une question! Est ce qu'il pourrais y avoir un genre de rabais pour le temps des fêtes ou quelque chose comme ça? (Suggestion pour le programme/à ajouter peut être).

Hey All, Registering using DUNS number wrt to Organisation. After filling Signatory Details and Clicking on Proceed to Purchase, “an unexpected error has occurred…”. shows up. Tried contacting apple support no reply. can any one help?

Hello everyone, I am facing a persistent and unacceptable issue with my individual enrollment in the Apple Developer Program that has been ongoing for nearly three months. Despite multiple attempts to communicate with Developer Support, I am continuously receiving the exact same generic statement: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment... couldn't be completed," with no clear explanation or actionable steps provided. This lack of genuine assistance and transparency is deeply frustrating and prevents me from publishing my application. Key Details of the Situation: Apple ID Region: Türkiye Current Residence and Address: United Kingdom (UK) Identity Verification: I used my Turkish passport along with my UK residential address. Enrollment Status/Error: After submission, I received the "Contact us to continue your enrollment" prompt. Case Number: 102720548696 Support Experience: The case has been handled by multiple support staff (Migeylis, Alex), all of whom have provided identical, non-specific template responses, failing to address the core problem. It appears the conflict between my Apple ID region (Türkiye) and my UK physical address/Turkish passport documentation is the likely cause. I am seeking clarification on whether this is a known issue for developers with mixed international details and what concrete steps are required to resolve this ambiguity. Has anyone in the community experienced a similar issue? If so, what was the path to resolution? I urge Apple officials to escalate this matter immediately and provide a specific, helpful, and transparent resolution. Every developer deserves equal and fair treatment in the enrollment process. Thank you in advance for any insights or assistance. Best regards, Onur

I am unable to activate my developer account. Have raised ticket, it has been more than 24hrs with no response.

Hello, I purchased the Apple Developer Program a week ago and yet I haven't received any information on it. No activation of the account whatsoever. I've sent 3 emails to apple support, but still no replied. Is this normal? How long does it take? Will someone finally assist me Apple?

Hi! I would like to experiment with the Accessory Setup Kit, but I am not sure how I can add the required entitlement to my Apple Developer account. I added the following to the plist file: NSAccessorySetupKitSupports WiFi NSAccessorySetupWiFiSSIDPrefix test_ test And the following to the entitlements file: com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit But I am unable to build as my provisioning profile doesn't include "com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit entitlement". On the developer portal, I navigated to “Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles” > “Identifiers” > “”, but I don't see it under "Capabilities" or "App services", nor under requests. How do I configure my profile so that I am able to make use of this kit?

SKStorefront.countryCode always returns "US" in TestFlight and sandbox, even when sandbox Apple ID is set to a different country. Is this expected behavior? Is SKStorefront guaranteed to return the correct storefront only for production App Store builds?

Am developing an application that creates custom VPN. I have enabled Sandbox properties. VPN will be granted based upon the device posture. Posture includes reading the disk encryption value, secureboot and Firewall values. Application just tries to fetch the values to provides its posture. Since the application is sandboxed, it is getting denied to read the above mentioned values. How to achieve this with Sandboxed enabled?

Dear Support Team, Hello, I would like to know why I am unable to register as a developer. When I try to create an account, the system shows an “unknown error” and does not allow me to continue. Could you please help me create the account or advise me on how to resolve this issue? I am registering as an individual. Thank you very much for your time and support.

Hi all, I'm new to TestFlight and Apple Store Connect. I have pushed a build and it says "waiting for review". Do I have to do anything to put it into review? I'm trying to get this build out to external testers.

I recently had my developer account terminated. In the final termination email, it said: "If applicable, no further payments will be made to you pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Paid Applications agreement (Schedules 2 and 3 to the ADP Agreement)." I've talked to multiple different developers who also had 3.2f account terminations. Some of them say that they got all their remaining earnings paid out 3-6 months later. Others have said that Apple just kept the money forever. How can I find out if Apple will pay me my account's remaining balance? When I got the original pending termination notice, I was still able to log into App Store Connect to view everything. But immediately after I got the final termination notice email, I could no longer even log into App Store Connect. Could anybody please help me? I'm dependent on the unpaid earnings as a young 21 indie developer. Thank you!! :)

iPhone, iPad, MacOS Build numbers are all the same but each actual platform reports the actual version.

I want to enable developer program but after submitting the enrollment I see: Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time.
