Apple Developer Program Enrollment — Pending for Over 3 Weeks (D-U-N-S Verified)
Hello, I’m posting here to seek guidance or visibility regarding a delayed Apple Developer Program enrollment. I completed my organization enrollment over three weeks ago and provided a valid D-U-N-S number, which is correctly listed and verifiable. Since submitting the enrollment: The status has remained unchanged I’ve contacted Apple Developer Support three times via email I’ve received no response or timeline updates There is no option shown to request a phone call At this point, I’m unable to proceed with TestFlight, app distribution, or further development planning, and the lack of communication has made it difficult to understand next steps or expected timelines. If anyone from Apple Support or the community can advise: Whether this delay is expected If additional verification steps are required Or how best to escalate appropriately I’d really appreciate the guidance. Thank you for your time.

MCP servers don’t start in Codex (Xcode 26.3)
I’m trying to use MCP servers with Xcode 26.3 Coding Intelligence (Codex agent). With a project-scoped config file at /.codex/config.toml, MCP servers are not reliably loaded. /.codex/config.toml Example: [mcp_servers.Notion] url = "https://mcp.notion.com/mcp" enabled = true [mcp_servers.XcodeBuildMCP] command = "/bin/zsh" args = ["-lc", "/opt/homebrew/bin/npx -y xcodebuildmcp@beta mcp"] enabled = true tool_timeout_sec = 10000 Expected: Xcode consistently loads MCP servers defined in /.codex/config.toml across restarts. Actual: Xcode often only exposes xcode-tools. In some sessions MCP servers appear, but after restarting Xcode they may disappear. The global file at ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/codex/config.toml also seems managed/rewritten by Xcode and isn’t reliable for custom MCP servers. Questions Is /.codex/config.toml the official/supported way to configure MCP servers for Codex in Xcode right now? Are there any requirements for Xcode to load it (e.g. workspace must be Trusted, open .xcworkspace vs .xcodeproj, full restart/force quit, etc.)? Is there any logging/diagnostics to understand why the MCP server is not starting or not being picked up?

Apple 403 detected - Access forbidden
Im getting this specific error 'Apple 403 detected - Access forbidden' when trying to build my app, my previous 10 builds all succesfully work but now it keeps on giving this error. I'm guessing its because of a new agreement email I recieved. But when i got to both developer website and app store connect there is no new agreements to accept. I'm quite stuck. Any help appreciated. Thanks

memory leak in dlopen / dlcose, or user error?
Calling dlopen then dlclose causes an increase in the amount of memory used by the program. If I create a loop that calls dlopen / dlclose repeatedly on the same dynamic library, memory usage increases continuously. Is this a bug, or am I using dlopen / dlclose incorrectly? I can reproduce this by modifying the sample code in the Apple Developer docs Creating Dynamic Libraries. If I modify Runtime.c, changing the line void *lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); to add the infinite loop, as below: void *lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); for (int ii = 0; ; ++ii) { printf("loop %i\n", ii); int close_err = dlclose(lib_handle); printf("close error: %i\n", close_err); printf("dlopen(%s, RTLD_NOW)\n", lib_name); lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); } then opening and closing the dynamic library will succeed, but memory usage (as reported by top) will rapidly increase. I'm running on x86_64 macOS 13.6.6. Full code for the modified Runtime.c is attached, the rest of the code is available in the Apple Developer docs. Any suggestions? Many thanks, Chris Runtime.c

Xcode 26.2 / iOS 26.2 Simulator not downloading
Hey all, I recently updated to Xcode 26.2 and I'm having the hardest time trying to download the corresponding iOS simulator. I installed Xcode from developer downloads and the app did not come loaded with an iOS simulator. When trying to download from Components in Settings, I only get the following message: Download failed due to a bad URL. (Catalog download for com.apple.MobileAsset.iOSSimulatorRuntime) Domain: com.apple.MobileAssetError.Download Code: 49 User Info: { checkConfiguration = 1; } I also tried downloading via Terminal but also get a download failed message. I am on the latest macOS and have over 600 GB of disk space available. In previous versions, I was able to download the iOS simulator directly from Developer Downloads, but anything after 26 is not there. Any suggestions?

Unable to access Certificates Identifiers & Profiles as an Admin in Apple Organization Developer Program Account
Hi all, I’m an Admin user in an Apple Developer Program (Organization) team, but I’m unable to access Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles (CIP) on developer.apple.com. I’d like to understand what permission is missing and where it should be enabled. Context Program type: Apple Developer Program (Organization) My role in App Store Connect: Admin I can access App Store Connect normally, but CIP resources on developer.apple.com are blocked. The Account Holder can access CIP normally. What I see (Problem) In the Apple Developer portal → Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, I get: “Access Unavailable — You currently don't have access to this membership resource. Contact your team's Account Holder or an Admin.” In Xcode → Settings → Accounts → Team, the “Certificates, Identifiers, & Profiles” section shows a red error indicator and doesn’t load. Only my account is affected; the Account Holder is not. What we’ve tried / confirmed Membership is active (renewal date is valid) Signed out/in of Xcode and re-added my Apple ID Confirmed selecting the correct Organization team in Xcode / Developer portal Account Holder confirmed they can access CIP Questions For an Organization team, what exact permission(s) are required for a member to access Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles? Where is this access controlled — App Store Connect → Users and Access vs developer.apple.com → People? If Admin in App Store Connect is not sufficient, what additional role/setting is needed to grant CIP access?

Request for Assistance Apple Developer Account Approval Delay
Dear Apple Developer Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek assistance regarding my Apple Developer account, which is still pending approval. It has been several weeks since I completed the registration process and submitted all the required information, but I have not received any confirmation or update yet. We understand that the review process for Apple Enterprise Developer Accounts requires strict verification to ensure platform security and compliance, and we fully respect and cooperate with all the review standards and procedures formulated by Apple. According to the public information and practical experience of Apple’s developer program, the conventional review cycle for enterprise developer accounts is 2-4 weeks. However, as of today, more than a month has passed since we submitted the application, and we have not received any confirmation, feedback, or update on the review progress, either via email or phone.  The delay in the account approval has gradually affected the normal work progress of our sales team. Our sales staff are unable to use the dedicated internal applications to carry out customer follow-up work efficiently, which has brought certain obstacles to our daily business development and customer service quality. We are very anxious about this and sincerely hope to get your help and attention.  Here, we kindly request the Apple executive team and the relevant review department to assist us with the following matters:  Please inquire and inform us of the current review progress of our enterprise developer account application, including whether it is in the review stage, the reasons for the delay (if any), and the estimated time for completing the review and approval.  2. If there is any missing information, unqualified materials, or additional verification required for our application, please inform us at your earliest convenience. We will immediately arrange a special person to supplement and improve the relevant materials to expedite the review process.  We have prepared all the relevant supporting materials (including D-U-N-S number, business license, legal person authorization documents, etc.) as required during the application process, and we are willing to actively cooperate with any further verification work arranged by Apple.  Apple has always been a benchmark in the global technology industry, and we have always admired and trusted Apple’s products and services. We sincerely hope that with your help, we can complete the approval of the enterprise developer account as soon as possible, so as to better support our business development and provide better services to our customers.  Thank you very much for your precious time and attention. We sincerely look forward to your prompt reply and will be grateful for your support and help.

XCode 12 - Can't login to Github without Access Token???
Hey, so I wanted to pull from the Github project repository and XCode asked me login again. Forgot my password so I tried a wrong one and now it keeps asking for my Username and Access token, when I actually just want to login with my password. Doesn't let me choose between the too, not even when adding the account through preferences. Anyone know how to just login with password and the reason for this -pardon me- absolutely idiotic choice of not letting the user choose?

Apple Dev for 15 years but....
The posts I'm reading here are very discouraging. So many people trying to get into the program, even people that have paid and can't get any support. I've been an Apple developer for 15 years now. I've had various business developer accounts over the years. I've developed in my own name and for customers. This is the first time in a while that I had to get a new business developer account. I applied only a few days ago, so I'm not concerned yet but I don't know why this is so difficult. The posts that I'm reading her here are very discouraging. Why can't we get support on this? Very disappointing. What is happening to Apple? I'd like to get my account, and I'd like all these other people to get some help too. But this form looks completely abandoned.

Where is the Apple Developer Program and Support I have paid for?
Been trying to get into Developer Prgram since December 2025. And like many others, it seems the biggest tech company on the planet cannot streamline an enrollment program. Unless, it’s by design, to test your nerve? Anyways, I have now ended up paying twice, and still not even a squeak from support. There is no Developer Support phone number in South Africa, and mails go unanswered. How is this possible? $200 out of pocket, and nothing to show. Cannot even find a method for refunds. If there are steps to still follow or docs to submit, why take my money, then ask for more info?? But this black hole of SILENCE…. Now that skype is no longer, what other platform will allow me to call the US Support number from South Africa?
