I am trying to set an image as the background in the window of a DMG. The image is: PNG file; 144x144 resolution; 1138x574 size. In macOS Tahoe, the image is added by: selecting the DMG window; opening the "Show View Options" dialog; clicking on "Picture"; dragging the image file to the small square box labelled "Drag image here"; closing "Show View Options" dialog. The DMG is then ejected. In Disk Utility, the image file is converted to "Read Only image (UDRO)". The converted image file is opened and the background image is visible. The image file is then copied to a MacBook running macOS 12 Monterey and opened. The background image is NOT shown. The image file is copied to a Mac mini running macOS 14 Sequoia and opened. The background image is NOT shown. Have read past online discussions in which it was explained that an image file called "background" should be inside a hidden folder called ".background". The above procedure did not do that. Is that old advice still correct for macOS Tahoe ? Has Tahoe somehow broken the method used for setting the background of a Window ? Is the method used in Tahoe different to past versions of macOS ? If so, is there a way of maintaining compatibility with old versions of macOS ? Is there any documentation on how to set the background image of a DMG window which might explain this behaviour ?? Thanks.

Try this simple code: import SwiftUI import StoreKit struct ReviewView: View { @Environment(\.requestReview) var requestReview var body: some View { Button("Leave a review") { requestReview() } } } When the Review Alert shows, the "Not Now" button is disabled for some reason!? It was always tappable in all iOS versions that I remember. And there is no way to opt out, unless the user taps on the stars first. Is it a bug or a feature? Thanks for looking into it!

We have implemented live activities with broadcast notification using channels. It has been working without a problem for the last 6-8 months. Now we want to upgrade it by starting the channel based live activity via push notification. Whenever I try locally with development channels there isnt any problem regarding to starting live activity. When we go production on Testflight or App Store it doesn't work after first successful push even though user enters the app and send the new push to start token to our server and we are using the latest token we receive. We couldn't go further with debugging since it works perfectly fine the client when tried locally and we know we can send successful pushes as well since the metrics shows 12% success but we do not actually know what happened to remaining 88%. Every apns request return success with 200 and empty body. How can we further debug this issue. Or is this a common problem, if so, is there any possible solution to this. As far as we see, token goes to our server so we have the latest token all the time and this whole logic doesn't work without deleting and reinstalling the app.

We are creating a Replicated FileProvider based application, where we need to change folder icons for root level folders. I tried below two approaches. This using NSFileProviderDecorations + Custom UTType, this changed the UI as shown: This using Custom UTType, this had no UI change: How can we change the default folder icon, to our custom icon?

I’m working with CPListTemplate in CarPlay and have run into two issues: Item limit: The documentation states that maximumItemCount is 500. In practice, when providing a list of ~2–4k items, only the first 500 are displayed. However, Apple Music on CarPlay seems to handle larger lists without this limitation. Is there an API-level approach or recommended pattern to support lists beyond this cap? Image memory usage: Cells don’t appear to load lazily. Even with small images, the first 500 items load all their artwork into memory immediately, resulting in ~400–700 MB usage and high CPU loads. This seems excessive for CarPlay environments. Is there a best practice for deferring or managing image loading within CPListTemplate? Any official guidance or known workarounds for these two issues would be very helpful.

I'd like to investigate creating a safety feature for Type 1 Diabetics driving a car. Allowing HealthKit glucose data (read from a Dexcom G7 or similar) to be displayed as part of the CarPlay UI background or show an icon/button with the number visible. I'd also like to include a warning system for glucose low's that alerts the driver audibly. Has anyone looked into that before?

CPListTemplate item.playing = YES; item.playingIndicatorLocation = CPListItemPlayingIndicatorLocationTrailing; iOS 26: The playing indicator shows only a static icon when initially displayed in the list. The animation requires the cell to be scrolled off-screen and back into view to render correctly.

Issue Summary: iOS 26 UI components are not visible in the Expo app when installed via TestFlight. All components render correctly in local builds or when running with expo run:ios. Details: The app is built using Expo managed workflow. iOS 26-specific UI components do not appear in TestFlight builds. The same components display correctly in local builds and simulators. Test device: iPhone running iOS 26.1. There are no crashes or runtime errors; only the components are missing. This issue occurs only in TestFlight/release builds. Expected Behavior: All iOS 26 UI components should render in TestFlight builds the same way they do in local builds. Actual Behavior: Components fail to render or are completely missing. Device Information: Device: iPhone iOS Version: 26.1 Distribution: TestFlight Local Build: Working correctly Additional Notes: This may be related to Expo release build optimization or iOS 26 SDK compatibility.

Sidebars for mac Catalyst apps running with UIDesignRequiresCompatibility flag render their active items with a white bg tint – resulting in labels and icons being not visible. mac OS Tahoe 26.1 Beta 3 (25B5062e) FB20765036 Example (Apple Developer App):

Number keys on iPadOS 26 register incorrect/random characters, making numeric input unreliable across all applications. Affected Versions iPadOS 26.0 through 26.1 (build 23B85) Platform-specific: Only iPadOS (iPhone doesn't present the full on-screen keyboard) Reproduction Steps Open any app with a numeric text field (For example, Apple's Contacts) Tap numeric text field - a small number-only pad appears Dismiss this small numpad (tap outside or hit return) Tap the field again - full keyboard with numbers appears Type numbers on this full keyboard Result: Numbers register as random/incorrect characters Scope Affects numeric keyboard types (.numberPad, .decimalPad ) Reproducible in Apple's native apps (Contacts or any apps that has numeric TextField) Impact Critical: Users cannot reliably enter phone numbers, passwords, financial data, or any numeric input. Other findings Keyboard starts to register correct keys when switch from the full on-screen keyboard to alphabetic page, and then back to the page with numeric keys

I'm building an alarm app using the new AlarmKit introduced in iOS 26. The alarm works correctly when the device is locked, but when the screen is already on and unlocked, it only gives a single short vibration. I tested another app that also uses AlarmKit just to confirm, and it behaves the same way—only one short vibration if the display is awake, and the developer added a push notification as a workaround. The default iOS Clock app works properly in both situations (though when the screen is on, it uses the Dynamic Island interface). So I'm wondering: is this behavior a bug in AlarmKit, or is it intentional?

Since iOS 18.3, icons are no longer generated correctly with QLThumbnailGenerator. No error is returned either. But this error message now appears in the console: Error returned from iconservicesagent image request: <ISTypeIcon: 0x3010f91a0>,Type: com.adobe.pdf - <ISImageDescriptor: 0x302f188c0> - (36.00, 36.00)@3x v:1 l:5 a:0:0:0:0 t:() b:0 s:2 ps:0 digest: B19540FD-0449-3E89-AC50-38F92F9760FE error: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-609 "Client is disallowed from making such an icon request" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Client is disallowed from making such an icon request} Does anyone know this error? Is there a workaround? Are there new permissions to consider? Here is the code how icons are generated: let request = QLThumbnailGenerator.Request(fileAt: url, size: size, scale: scale, representationTypes: self.thumbnailType) request.iconMode = true let generator = QLThumbnailGenerator.shared generator.generateRepresentations(for: request) { [weak self] thumbnail, _, error in }

Bonjour, I have an (old) app. written in Objective-C which works fine under iPadOS 26 with custom menus and contextual menus but without scenedelegate. To be able to have multi-windows, I added scenedelegate but "buildMenuWithBuilder" is no more called. I asked AI Claude and tried many solutions but none worked. Has anyone else had and solved this problem? Thanks.

In a modal dialog, when tabbing to next NSTextField, or programmatically selecting a NSTextField, the NSTextfField that is loosing focus (aka resigning FirstResponder) appears empty in Tahoe 26 ( aka not displaying its content) . The same thing works oK in all systems before Tahoe. Found no workaround this issue which looks to be a Tahoe problem. i have a small app that demonstrate the issue.. but cannot be posted here due to zip format not accepted... i appreciate any help or apple engineer attention to that issue also posted with Evaluation Assistant under #FB21102969 ThX

Hi Is there a way to create a dynamic app clip card experience? I have advanced app clip experiences set up and working fine already and but I am looking to provider a more dynamic experience. For example, my invocation url now is https://mycompany.com/profile/<profile_slug>, this URL shows the app clip card with the title, subheading, and cover image as configured in app store connect which is right. But I would like to show a different title, subheading, and cover image based on the <profile_slug> in the invocation URL. Like we can show the name as the title, job title as the subheading, and profile's banner image as the cover image for the app clip It seems like this is possible as I have seen one company do this for their product. Apple has no mention for such a thing in their documentation from what I have seen. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The ScreenCaptureKit sample application (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/screencapturekit/capturing-screen-content-in-macos) uses a filter initially set to capture content from the selected display, excluding only the sample application, and excepting no windows: private var contentFilter: SCContentFilter { var filter: SCContentFilter switch captureType { case .display: guard let display = selectedDisplay else { fatalError("No display selected.") } var excludedApps = [SCRunningApplication]() // If a user chooses to exclude the app from the stream, // exclude it by matching its bundle identifier. if isAppExcluded { excludedApps = availableApps.filter { app in Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier == app.bundleIdentifier } } // Create a content filter with excluded apps. filter = SCContentFilter(display: display, excludingApplications: excludedApps, exceptingWindows: []) ....... return filter However, if another application uses the legacy NSWindowSharingType NSWindowSharingNone attribute, that application is initially not included in the captured stream. Only by toggling either the "Capture Type" or "Exclude sample from stream" checkbox does the initially hidden application become visible. Additionally, if the "Stop Capture" button is used followed by "Start Capture", the application using the legacy NSWindowSharingType NSWindowSharingNone attribute is once again hidden from the stream, and is only made visible by toggling either the "Capture Type" or "Exclude sample from stream" checkbox. Does some additional filter element or other SCStream configuration need to be included to verify that all applications, regardless of NSWindowSharingType, are captured using ScreenCaptureKit without requiring manual user interaction/filter refreshing? It seems odd that QuickTime screen recording (using ScreenCaptureKit) immediately captures an application using the NSWindowSharingNone attribute while the ScreenCaptureKit sample application linked above does not. See images below showing the stream preview before and after toggling the "Capture Type" or "Exclude sample from stream" checkbox. Images were taken from a QuickTime screen recording during testing.

I know iPhone Cannot prohibit screenshots, but I have seen someone else's solution, which is to capture a white page instead of the current design page when taking screenshots. I want to use swift implement iPhone The photo generated when taking a screenshot is a white screen, and I don't want my page to be seen by others

In macOS Tahoe, users can tint folders or add symbols. But when trying to access that customized icon in Swift, the system always returns the default folder icon. NSWorkspace.shared.icon(forFile: url.path) try url.resourceValues(forKeys: [.effectiveIconKey]).effectiveIcon try url.resourceValues(forKeys: [.customIconKey]).customIconKey All of these give back the standard folder icon without any of the user-applied customization. So the question is: Is there any API or workaround in Swift to retrieve the actual customized folder icon (including tint and symbol) as displayed in Finder on macOS Tahoe?

Hi, I have a UIToolbar at the bottom of my screen. The UIToolbar is made of UIBarButtonItems. At some point, I change the status of some buttons to hidden: button.isHidden = true This works: the buttons become invisible. At a later point in the process, I turn the buttons visible again: button.isHidden = false This did work on iOS 18, and does not work with the iOS 26 SDK: the buttons remain hidden, even though the property has been set to false. Am I doing it wrong? Is there anything I can do to fix this?
