Organization enrollment declined with no reason provided — 2 open support cases, no response
I enrolled my company Yasmina IT and Development LLC (Wyoming LLC) in the Apple Developer Program as an organization. The enrollment was declined and my account page now shows "Your enrollment request for your company has been declined." Company details: Legal Entity: Yasmina IT and Development LLC D-U-N-S: 141729385 Website: yasmina-it.com Valid EIN and passport on file Developer Support (Robert, case 102818588804) advised me to enroll as an individual instead, but provided no specific reason for the organization decline. I replied on March 19th asking for the rejection reason — no response. I opened a second case (30000003327016) on March 25th — also no response. I am not asking to bypass any requirements. I simply need the specific rejection reason so I can take the correct action. Has anyone experienced this and found a resolution?

Pending Termination Notice – No Response After Appeal (Request for Guidance)
We have received a Pending Termination Notice for our Apple Developer account related to guideline 3.2(f). We submitted a formal appeal over two weeks ago but have not received any response. We want to ensure full compliance and have clearly confirmed in our appeal that: -No hidden features exist -No dynamic content switching occurs after review -All apps are independently configured for specific regions Given the lack of response, could someone advise: whether additional steps are required from our side or how we can ensure our appeal is reviewed Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

NSLocationTemporaryUsageDescriptionDictionary crashes Xcode 13
I just submitted a feedback for this (FB9662125) but in the spirit of “share and enjoy”… The cool new Generate Info.plist File feature in Xcode 13 crashes if you try to put an NSLocationTemporaryUsageDescriptionDictionary in your Info.plist file. Here’s a simple repro scenario: Create a minimal iOS app (no Core Data, no tests) Go to target settings → Info tab → Custom iOS Target Properties Click the (+) button on any row to begin inserting a new row Select Privacy - Location Temporary Usage Description Dictionary Click somewhere else or press Return to commit the selection Xcode crashes immediately More generally, it seems that Xcode crashes any time it tries to regenerate your Info.plist file if it contains an NSLocationTemporaryUsageDescriptionDictionary, even if (for example) you manually pasted that dictionary into the file earlier. In that case, merely tapping the (+) button in step 3 above is enough to crash it.

Apple developer payment not being processed
Hey there, so I wanted to know what kind of experience you guys had with creating your apple developer account. I have a client who paid for my developer account with his credit card details, but he's not in my country, I figured that this is the reason the payment is taking ages to process but I've received several emails saying "hey payment has been received" and all that jazz. But it still says "Purchase your membership" on my enrolled to developer program page. If anyone could provide some support that would be great.

Issues with Family Controls during development
Hi everyone! I’m building Delta — an app designed to rethink time, because time is literally our most valuable currency. So the core mechanic involves earning time in useful apps and then spending it on apps that are a distraction. I already have a prototype that’s being actively tested in a closed beta, but I’ve started noticing that more and more testers are reporting the same bug. “Time is being counted even when I'm not in the app I marked as useful.” I suspect that Screen Time is also tracking background time, although this behavior isn't correct for my app. Does anyone know how to track specifically those moments when an app marked as useful and used for “time-earning” is in the foreground? Additionally, I hit a wall with Screen Time and had to accept that I can’t force a user away from another app if they’re active there, nor redirect them to my app to trigger the lock screen. Because of this, I had to resort to a penalty system, which is equal to the time the user spent additionally after their time ran out. And here, I run into the same problem I described at the beginning of the post. I can’t track the background status of another app, even though I’m trying really hard... Can anyone suggest any ways I can get out of this situation, or should I keep looking for a solution, or shift toward explaining this to the user?.. (However, I’m holding out until the very end before giving up on finding a solution)

Interface Builder - Xcode 26.4 - Changing Between Attributes Inspector, File Inspector, Etc. Is Now A Pop Up Button?
In Interface Builder there use to be a segmented control to switch Inspectors. It's been this way forever. I could switch from: File Inspector Attributes Inspector Size Inspector Etc... Now in Xcode 26.4, it is this clunky pop up button? What? I thought Apple didn't like Interface Builder anymore so I'm surprised they are even touching it. This part of a SwiftUI rewrite or just bad vibes?

The Apple developer registration process is taking too long.
Hello everyone, I paid for an Apple Developer subscription, but after a week, about 7-8 days, I still don't have access to my developer funds. The subscription is active, but the money is debited. Please help me access and activate my developer account. I haven't received a response for several days, and I'm very upset. I just don't know what to do. They aren't responding to my requests, and the phone number isn't listed anywhere, so I can't call. The Apple Developer subscription is showing in the App Store subscriptions, the money is debited, the account is inactive, and my Apple Developer account is empty. This is my first and very frustrating experience. Order code: D009562242

Is the customer support even alive, or have they all switched to a useless and stupid AI and now they don't respond, even though they charge money without any problems?
The support team is absolutely useless here. I subscribed to a developer account and everything was fine; I received an email. But because there was a bug in their app, I signed up for a second subscription, and I cancelled the second one. As a result, I haven't heard back from support for a week, and I'm sitting without an account even though I paid for the first subscription. These dogs don't respond.

Xcode now hangs; SDKs are "status unavailable"
My development work is paused as Xcode is now non-functional on my Macs. Loading any project into Xcode soon leads to a hang and Force Quit. The SDKs are listed as "status unavailable". No Simulators are available. I've tried previous versions of Xcode; removing everything and re-installing; installation from the Store and direct from the Apple Developer site. I've created a Feedback issue. This happens on both of my Mac minis. I'm running Tahoe 26.4 (25E246) on both.

Unable to Save my build
I am unable to submit my app EggZap for review. When I navigate to my iOS App Version 1.0 submission page, I can make all edits and save successfully — screenshots, description, keywords, contact info all save without issue. However, as soon as I add a build to the submission and click Save, the button turns red with a ! error indicator and will not save. Removing the build allows the page to save normally again. The build (Build 51) is fully validated and shows as Complete in TestFlight. It is fully playable via TestFlight on my device. I have tried multiple browsers on multiple devices with the same result. Browser console shows a 409 Conflict error from the PATCH endpoint when saving with a build attached. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support (Case ID: 102858642503) but wanted to reach out to the community as well. I have seen other posts about this same issue but no real answer on how it was fixed. Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions appreciated.

Apple Developer Program Subscription Error not fixed
I purchased a $100 Apple Developer credit for my apple account , but the Apple Developer access hasn’t been granted to my account, and it still says “pending” and “complete purchases.” In other words, I can’t use what I purchased and can’t access it. Is there anyone who can help me with this issue regarding the Apple Developer license?

Sandbox Server Notifications V2: requestTestNotification returns 200, but no delivery to Webhook URL
I’m experiencing a confusing issue with App Store Server Notifications (Version 2) in the Sandbox environment. I've configured my Sandbox URL, but I'm not receiving any notifications despite successful API responses. App Details: App ID: 6753059790 Bundle ID: com.xmojong.widgetTest Sandbox URL: https://webhook.site/97938287-07e8-4482-a053-b6ccfca76634 The Problem: I am calling the requestTestNotification endpoint via the App Store Server API. The API call is successful and consistently returns a 200 OK status code. However, no notification (Type: TEST) is ever delivered to my Webhook.site endpoint. What I've verified: Endpoint Accessibility: I tested the Webhook URL by sending a manual POST request directly from my iOS app; it was received instantly. Configuration: The URL is correctly entered in the Sandbox Server URL field (not Production) in App Store Connect. Notification Version: It is set to Version 2. Propagation Time: It has been over 3 hours since I updated the URL and saved the changes in App Store Connect. JWT Token: The JWT for the API call is valid (verified by the 200 response from Apple). My Question: If the requestTestNotification API returns a 200, doesn't that mean the App Store server has successfully queued the notification for my specific URL? Is there a known delay for Sandbox notification delivery or URL propagation recently? Or are there any hidden requirements for the Sandbox environment that I might have missed? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Error 7000 — Locked out of notarization and support portal, seeking guidance
Hello, I am the Account Holder for VectorForge LLC (Team ID: WCFQ8X3RVH). I have been blocked from notarizing any macOS application since at least March 2026.

Most critically: I am now unable to submit any new support ticket through the Apple Developer portal at all. Every attempt returns "There was a problem processing your request." I have no notarization access and no support access. I am asking: Is there a formal appeal process for accounts in this state? What can a developer do when both notarization and the support portal are inaccessible? Team ID: WCFQ8X3RVH Legal Entity: VectorForge LLC Primary case: 102838799002

Xcode Cloud builds stuck on "Queued"
Xcode Cloud seems to be queueing up builds but not processing them. Currently the earliest queued build on my end is about 3 hours ago. System status pages don't show any issues. I just want to check if this is something other people are seeing or just something going weird on our account.

Can’t paste into Simulator after updating to Xcode 26.4
After updating to Xcode 26.4 (public release), I’m no longer able to paste from the Mac clipboard into the Simulator. Automatically Sync Pasteboard is on, and I have content on the clipboard, but paste doesn’t work—Cmd+V does nothing, and there’s no Paste option in the context menu. Is anyone else seeing this?
