Error 7000 “Team is not yet configured for notarization” - All submissions rejected
I’m trying to notarize an Electron app for distribution outside the Mac App Store, but every submission is rejected with error 7000. Team Details: Team ID: P3HATASMP9 Organization: Rose Ai Labs, Inc.

The error message says “Team is not yet configured for notarization” which suggests something needs to be enabled on Apple’s side. Has anyone encountered this and found a resolution?

Verify an app before sending to Notary service
Hi, we are sending MacOS apps packaged in a ZIP archive or DMG disk image to the Notary Service. Before we send the app for notarization, we check the code signature via command codesign -vvv --deep --strict /path/to/app_or_bundle The result is positive and it does not provide any gaps. (And yes, we are following the inside out code signing approach, mentioned at Using the codesign Tool's --deep Option Correctly) Unfortunately, the result of the Notary service provided that one file has no signature, which was not detected by the signature verification command. The path of the binary was in <app_name>.app.zip/<app_name>.app/Contents/Resources/inst/<binary> How I can be verify like a the Notary service does it on our side? Best regards, Stefan

Notarized but Gatekeeper fails macOS 15 only?
Okay, I just pushed a release and notarized. Works great on my test laptop (macOS 26.2) and my test desktop (macOS 14.x) But it seems to fail for a friend who's running macOS 15. I've been using the same GitHub actions successfully for months. How can notarization work for macOS 14 and 26, but not for macOS 15? I think everything looks okay as far as the signing? I've checked codesign -dvv Executable=/Applications/Avogadro2.app/Contents/MacOS/Avogadro2 Identifier=cc.avogadro Format=app bundle with Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20500 size=11607 flags=0x10000(runtime) hashes=352+7 location=embedded Signature size=8986 Authority=Developer ID Application: Geoffrey Hutchison (…..)

"Notarization stuck in 'In Progress' for 15+ hours - submission e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588"
Notarization submission has been stuck in "In Progress" status for over 15 hours with no resolution. Hi there, I am trying to roll out distribution to paid users who are unable to receive anything from me for quite some time now, and I've read that notarization is quick. But I've found myself to be under quite a delay. Wondering if I could please get some help. Submission Details: ID: e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588 Submitted: 2026-02-08T16:42:07.377Z File: Resonant-0.1.0-arm64.dmg (~200MB) Status: In Progress (stuck) Evidence: Upload completed successfully within minutes Delay is entirely server-side processing Same app structure notarized successfully on Feb 5 (submission f5f4c241) Multiple other submissions stuck since Feb 5 (see history below) Stuck Submissions (all "In Progress" for days): e3dff14c (Feb 8, 16:42 UTC) - 15+ hours 3e6bdcb5 (Feb 8, 16:11 UTC) - 16+ hours 37fd1b9f (Feb 8, 12:53 UTC) - 20+ hours f21a1d9b (Feb 8, 12:31 UTC) - 20+ hours (different app, Clippa.zip) 417244e8 (Feb 8, 06:18 UTC) - 26+ hours 891f370f (Feb 7, 11:44 UTC) - 2+ days 1debba51 (Feb 7, 05:44 UTC) - 2+ days 6a06b87f (Feb 6, 14:16 UTC) - 3+ days 9867261c (Feb 6, 13:44 UTC) - 3+ days 1a7c3967 (Feb 6, 12:58 UTC) - 3+ days Last Successful Notarization: f5f4c241 (Feb 5, 18:24 UTC) - Accepted in normal timeframe Impact: Unable to distribute production release. This is blocking critical bug fixes from reaching users. Expected Behavior: Notarization should complete within 2-10 minutes as documented and as experienced prior to Feb 5. Request: Please investigate why submissions are not being processed and either: Clear the backlog and process pending submissions Provide guidance on how to proceed with distribution

notarytool returns HTTP 500 — even on store-credentials
Hi everyone, For the past three days I've been unable to notarize my app — every attempt fails with an HTTP 500 error from Apple's notarization service. What's unusual is that the error occurs not only during submission, but also when simply validating credentials via store-credentials. Example: $ xcrun notarytool store-credentials "notarytool-password" \ --apple-id <id> --team-id <team> --password <app-specific-password> Validating your credentials... Error: HTTP status code: 500. Internal Server Error Request ID: K6NYCMIFNM66OI2WRG3ORZEDUE.0.0 Please try again at a later time. Since the failure happens at credential validation — before any package is even uploaded — I'm fairly confident this is a server-side issue, not something wrong with my setup or the binary. I've tried across different network connections, same result. Has anyone else been hitting this? Is there a known outage or incident on Apple's notarization infrastructure? Any way to escalate or get a status update beyond checking developer.apple.com/system-status/? Thanks

App Notarization Stuck in "In Process" State – How Long Should It Take?
Hello, I’m currently in the process of app notarization, but my status is stuck in the "In Process" state, and I’m unsure how long this should take. I’d appreciate any advice or insights. Issue Description After submitting my app for notarization, the status has been stuck in "In Process" for an extended period. There seems to be no progress, and it’s taking longer than I expected for the process to complete. The status hasn’t changed, and it’s been 5 days since I submitted the app. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How long does the notarization process usually take? Any advice on how to resolve this or if there’s something I might be missing? Thanks in advance for your help!

Notarization submissions stuck "In Progress" for hours — requesting investigation
Hi, I have two notarization submissions that have been stuck in "In Progress" status for several hours with no resolution. Submission IDs: 2158329b-8beb-400b-aa80-f8c2a5f30106 (submitted ~9 hours ago) 73174908-3ed9-4a85-afe0-a3c3b0722a61 (submitted ~3 hours ago) Both submissions show "In Progress" indefinitely and no log is available for either. The notarytool --wait --timeout 30m timed out on the second submission with exit code 124. The app is signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate, all binaries including frameworks and dylibs are individually signed with --options runtime and --timestamp. A previous submission returned valid on disk / satisfies its Designated Requirement via spctl --assess. Could you please investigate whether these submissions are stuck on your end, and advise on next steps? Thank you.

That's been fixed in all subsequent submissions. The app is a small macOS menu bar utility (~2 MB DMG), signed with Developer ID Application certificate, hardened runtime enabled, no restricted entitlements. codesign --verify --deep --strict and spctl --assess --type execute both pass locally. Is there a known processing delay for first-time Developer ID accounts, or could something be stuck on the backend? Thanks for any guidance.

Notarization Delay "In Progress"
Hi, I'm trying to notarize a macOS app using xcrun notarytool, but the submission has been stuck in "In Progress" for over 24 hours. Submission ID: a3e0914a-c45f-4614-bd7c-cbae4c7b0b55 Created: 2026-03-08T01:55:29.272Z Team ID: 69YV6P6AKZ It looks like the signature is valid and the only missing step is notarization. I tried submitting twice, but the second submission is also stuck in In Progress. Is this likely a backlog in the notarization service, or is there something that could cause submissions to stay "in progress" for so long? Thanks!

Notarization submissions stuck in "In Progress" for many hours with no logs
Hi, I currently have multiple notarization submissions that have been stuck in "In Progress" status for many hours without any updates. Here are several examples from my recent submissions: Submission IDs: 01f7a80e-a9cc-49b3-bb93-94b126cf3124 (AutoTyper.dmg) 7af2b25f-e131-40a4-bcd3-0f7583ebbdc2 (AutoTyper.dmg) 2b35ec79-d851-41d6-a900-788d4201a273 (autoclaw-0.2.15.dmg) 8194b1af-a270-4de9-92f1-ce2a8d4782f2 (z-code_0.21.2_aarch64.unnotarized.dmg) 2608dcfc-7652-4efa-97e3-1749e7130dcb (AutoGLM PC.zip) These submissions were created between March 11 and March 12, and all of them remain stuck in the "In Progress" state indefinitely. When checking using: xcrun notarytool history all recent submissions appear as: status: In Progress Additionally: No logs are available for these submissions. notarytool --wait eventually times out after 30 minutes with exit code 124. The app bundles are signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate. All embedded frameworks and dylibs are individually signed using: --options runtime --timestamp Earlier submissions on the same day (for example df41010c-a3c6-4e2d-a455-b657693e8541) were successfully notarized and returned Accepted, so the signing configuration appears to be correct. Because many submissions across different files (DMG and ZIP) are stuck in the same state, it seems possible that the notarization service queue may be stalled. Could you please help confirm: Whether these notarization submissions are stuck on the Apple notarization service side If there is currently a service issue affecting notarization processing Whether I should cancel and resubmit these uploads Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Verify an app before sending to Notary service
Hi, we are sending MacOS apps packaged in a ZIP archive or DMG disk image to the Notary Service. Before we send the app for notarization, we check the code signature via command codesign -vvv --deep --strict /path/to/app_or_bundle The result is positive and it does not provide any gaps. (And yes, we are following the inside out code signing approach, mentioned at Using the codesign Tool's --deep Option Correctly) Unfortunately, the result of the Notary service provided that one file has no signature, which was not detected by the signature verification command. The path of the binary was in <app_name>.app.zip/<app_name>.app/Contents/Resources/inst/<binary> How I can be verify like a the Notary service does it on our side? Best regards, Stefan

Notarized but Gatekeeper fails macOS 15 only?
Okay, I just pushed a release and notarized. Works great on my test laptop (macOS 26.2) and my test desktop (macOS 14.x) But it seems to fail for a friend who's running macOS 15. I've been using the same GitHub actions successfully for months. How can notarization work for macOS 14 and 26, but not for macOS 15? I think everything looks okay as far as the signing? I've checked codesign -dvv Executable=/Applications/Avogadro2.app/Contents/MacOS/Avogadro2 Identifier=cc.avogadro Format=app bundle with Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20500 size=11607 flags=0x10000(runtime) hashes=352+7 location=embedded Signature size=8986 Authority=Developer ID Application: Geoffrey Hutchison (…..)

"Notarization stuck in 'In Progress' for 15+ hours - submission e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588"
Notarization submission has been stuck in "In Progress" status for over 15 hours with no resolution. Hi there, I am trying to roll out distribution to paid users who are unable to receive anything from me for quite some time now, and I've read that notarization is quick. But I've found myself to be under quite a delay. Wondering if I could please get some help. Submission Details: ID: e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588 Submitted: 2026-02-08T16:42:07.377Z File: Resonant-0.1.0-arm64.dmg (~200MB) Status: In Progress (stuck) Evidence: Upload completed successfully within minutes Delay is entirely server-side processing Same app structure notarized successfully on Feb 5 (submission f5f4c241) Multiple other submissions stuck since Feb 5 (see history below) Stuck Submissions (all "In Progress" for days): e3dff14c (Feb 8, 16:42 UTC) - 15+ hours 3e6bdcb5 (Feb 8, 16:11 UTC) - 16+ hours 37fd1b9f (Feb 8, 12:53 UTC) - 20+ hours f21a1d9b (Feb 8, 12:31 UTC) - 20+ hours (different app, Clippa.zip) 417244e8 (Feb 8, 06:18 UTC) - 26+ hours 891f370f (Feb 7, 11:44 UTC) - 2+ days 1debba51 (Feb 7, 05:44 UTC) - 2+ days 6a06b87f (Feb 6, 14:16 UTC) - 3+ days 9867261c (Feb 6, 13:44 UTC) - 3+ days 1a7c3967 (Feb 6, 12:58 UTC) - 3+ days Last Successful Notarization: f5f4c241 (Feb 5, 18:24 UTC) - Accepted in normal timeframe Impact: Unable to distribute production release. This is blocking critical bug fixes from reaching users. Expected Behavior: Notarization should complete within 2-10 minutes as documented and as experienced prior to Feb 5. Request: Please investigate why submissions are not being processed and either: Clear the backlog and process pending submissions Provide guidance on how to proceed with distribution

Notarization Stuck
Seeing my notarizations getting stuck. This is becoming a blocker for releasing. What's strange is that earlier versions of the same app (very similar) passed notarization very quickly. Any advice or recourse?

notarytool returns HTTP 500 — even on store-credentials
Hi everyone, For the past three days I've been unable to notarize my app — every attempt fails with an HTTP 500 error from Apple's notarization service. What's unusual is that the error occurs not only during submission, but also when simply validating credentials via store-credentials. Example: $ xcrun notarytool store-credentials "notarytool-password" \ --apple-id <id> --team-id <team> --password <app-specific-password> Validating your credentials... Error: HTTP status code: 500. Internal Server Error Request ID: K6NYCMIFNM66OI2WRG3ORZEDUE.0.0 Please try again at a later time. Since the failure happens at credential validation — before any package is even uploaded — I'm fairly confident this is a server-side issue, not something wrong with my setup or the binary. I've tried across different network connections, same result. Has anyone else been hitting this? Is there a known outage or incident on Apple's notarization infrastructure? Any way to escalate or get a status update beyond checking developer.apple.com/system-status/? Thanks

App Notarization Stuck in "In Process" State – How Long Should It Take?
Hello, I’m currently in the process of app notarization, but my status is stuck in the "In Process" state, and I’m unsure how long this should take. I’d appreciate any advice or insights. Issue Description After submitting my app for notarization, the status has been stuck in "In Process" for an extended period. There seems to be no progress, and it’s taking longer than I expected for the process to complete. The status hasn’t changed, and it’s been 5 days since I submitted the app. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How long does the notarization process usually take? Any advice on how to resolve this or if there’s something I might be missing? Thanks in advance for your help!

Notarization submissions stuck "In Progress" for hours — requesting investigation
Hi, I have two notarization submissions that have been stuck in "In Progress" status for several hours with no resolution. Submission IDs: 2158329b-8beb-400b-aa80-f8c2a5f30106 (submitted ~9 hours ago) 73174908-3ed9-4a85-afe0-a3c3b0722a61 (submitted ~3 hours ago) Both submissions show "In Progress" indefinitely and no log is available for either. The notarytool --wait --timeout 30m timed out on the second submission with exit code 124. The app is signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate, all binaries including frameworks and dylibs are individually signed with --options runtime and --timestamp. A previous submission returned valid on disk / satisfies its Designated Requirement via spctl --assess. Could you please investigate whether these submissions are stuck on your end, and advise on next steps? Thank you.

That's been fixed in all subsequent submissions. The app is a small macOS menu bar utility (~2 MB DMG), signed with Developer ID Application certificate, hardened runtime enabled, no restricted entitlements. codesign --verify --deep --strict and spctl --assess --type execute both pass locally. Is there a known processing delay for first-time Developer ID accounts, or could something be stuck on the backend? Thanks for any guidance.

Notarization Delay "In Progress"
Hi, I'm trying to notarize a macOS app using xcrun notarytool, but the submission has been stuck in "In Progress" for over 24 hours. Submission ID: a3e0914a-c45f-4614-bd7c-cbae4c7b0b55 Created: 2026-03-08T01:55:29.272Z Team ID: 69YV6P6AKZ It looks like the signature is valid and the only missing step is notarization. I tried submitting twice, but the second submission is also stuck in In Progress. Is this likely a backlog in the notarization service, or is there something that could cause submissions to stay "in progress" for so long? Thanks!

Notarization submissions stuck in "In Progress" for many hours with no logs
Hi, I currently have multiple notarization submissions that have been stuck in "In Progress" status for many hours without any updates. Here are several examples from my recent submissions: Submission IDs: 01f7a80e-a9cc-49b3-bb93-94b126cf3124 (AutoTyper.dmg) 7af2b25f-e131-40a4-bcd3-0f7583ebbdc2 (AutoTyper.dmg) 2b35ec79-d851-41d6-a900-788d4201a273 (autoclaw-0.2.15.dmg) 8194b1af-a270-4de9-92f1-ce2a8d4782f2 (z-code_0.21.2_aarch64.unnotarized.dmg) 2608dcfc-7652-4efa-97e3-1749e7130dcb (AutoGLM PC.zip) These submissions were created between March 11 and March 12, and all of them remain stuck in the "In Progress" state indefinitely. When checking using: xcrun notarytool history all recent submissions appear as: status: In Progress Additionally: No logs are available for these submissions. notarytool --wait eventually times out after 30 minutes with exit code 124. The app bundles are signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate. All embedded frameworks and dylibs are individually signed using: --options runtime --timestamp Earlier submissions on the same day (for example df41010c-a3c6-4e2d-a455-b657693e8541) were successfully notarized and returned Accepted, so the signing configuration appears to be correct. Because many submissions across different files (DMG and ZIP) are stuck in the same state, it seems possible that the notarization service queue may be stalled. Could you please help confirm: Whether these notarization submissions are stuck on the Apple notarization service side If there is currently a service issue affecting notarization processing Whether I should cancel and resubmit these uploads Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Notarization submissions stuck "In Progress" for 10 days
All of my notarization submissions have been stuck at "In Progress" for up to 10 days. I have 6 submissions spanning from March 4 to March 11, 2026, and none of them have completed or returned any errors. Affected submissions: dbf20b57-0073-444a-b09a-ac6747b7398e (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress d5886683-be64-455c-805d-cd8b12bbcd35 (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress 10bfa709-da17-49cf-9c89-63f93b5fb756 (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress e8d0866e-43f8-4a18-8129-64e6c5d3895a (submitted Mar 9) — In Progress f9526f25-5650-4c45-98ae-d778c58a2ffa (submitted Mar 9) — In Progress 82ec211f-9179-41fd-afe0-937c9b2c2750 (submitted Mar 11) — In Progress Running `notarytool log` returns "Submission log is not yet available." Team ID: CB4U5M6U9H It is an Electron-based app built with electron-builder. Steps taken to ensure compliance: Signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate Hardened runtime enabled (hardenedRuntime: true) Proper entitlements configured (com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit, com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory, com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation) Entitlements inherited for child processes via entitlements.mac.inherit.plist Electron Fuses configured to disable Node.js CLI flags in production (resetAdHocDarwinSignature enabled) App submitted as a zip archive via notarytool submit I've tried resubmitting multiple times across different builds, but all submissions remain stuck. I also have an open support case (102836201208) that was escalated to Senior Advisors on March 11, but have not received any update. Could someone from the notarization team please investigate?
