SSC 2026 — Will unlisted .mlmodel cause build failure?
Hi, I submitted my Swift Student Challenge 2026 app and I'm worried about a build error I got when testing. I have both PlateClassifier_2.mlmodel and PlateClassifier_2.mlmodelc in my Sources folder. Only the .mlmodelc is listed in my Package.swift resources. When building I got: PlateClassifier_2.mlmodel: No predominant language detected. Set COREML_CODEGEN_LANGUAGE to preferred language. Build failed — 1 error Will judges hit this same error? Does having an unlisted .mlmodel alongside the .mlmodelc cause a hard build failure on other machines too, or is this specific to my setup (Xcode 26.2 beta, building to physical device)? Will this get me instantly disqualified? Any help appreciated.

Apple Developer Enrollment Payment Completed but Account Not Activated
Dear Apple Developer Support Team, I am writing to formally escalate an issue regarding my Apple Developer Program enrollment. On February 23rd, I completed the $100 enrollment payment for an Individual Apple Developer account. The amount has been successfully debited from my card, and I have received official payment confirmation emails from Apple confirming receipt of the funds. However, as of today (March 3rd), my account still reflects that payment needs to be completed, and the enrollment remains inactive. This is my first-time enrollment as an individual developer. Given that payment has already been processed and acknowledged by Apple, I am concerned about the lack of activation and the absence of any communication regarding the delay. Additionally, I have submitted multiple support requests over the past five days but have not received any response or update. This delay is affecting my development and release timelines. I kindly request: Immediate confirmation of payment reconciliation on your end Clarification on the current status of my enrollment An estimated timeline for activation Escalation of this case to the appropriate billing or developer enrollment team Please let me know if any further documentation (transaction ID, invoice number, Apple ID details) is required from my side. I would appreciate your urgent assistance in resolving this matter. Kind regards, Gowtham Potureddi

Swift Student Challenge environment selection question (iOS 26)
Hello, I recently submitted my Swift Student Challenge app playground (“Crest”) and realized after submission that I accidentally selected Swift Playgrounds as the software to run it, instead of Xcode 26 or later. My project builds and runs successfully in Xcode 26 using the iOS 26 SDK and simulator. However, when opening the same .swiftpm project in the Swift Playgrounds app on iPad, it does not compile because Swift Playgrounds currently only supports up to iOS 18 SDK and does not support iOS 26 APIs. The submission itself is complete, builds correctly in Xcode, and was submitted before the deadline. The incorrect selection of Swift Playgrounds was an honest mistake during the submission process. I wanted to ask whether reviewers are able to run the submission using Xcode 26 in cases like this, or if there is anything I should do. Thank you very much for your time.

How to enable MIE on MacOS
I am working on a security research project on macOS (Apple Silicon M5) and trying to use Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE) to detect heap memory bugs such as use-after-free. I can confirm the hardware supports MTE hw.optional.arm.FEAT_MTE: 1) and the stack sanitizer (-fsanitize=memtag-stack) does work correctly on this machine. The gap is specifically heap tagging through the allocator. Is there any env variables for this?

Having all types of issues with latest Tahoe version 26.4!!
I'm losing it. I am on the public beta for Tahoe, downloaded most current update yesterday morning, 26.4. Chrome and Firefox aren't loading, and Mac mail isn't working right. Safari seems to be totally fine. I've done all types of troubleshooting, going crazy. Anyone else had issues with this update? It's almost like the connectivity got all screwed up.

Unable to enroll in Apple Developer Program – Invalid State/Region value for Kosovo
Hello, I am trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, but I cannot complete the payment. During the purchase process, I receive the following error: We are unable to complete your order. There was an issue when we processed your order. An invalid value '1549' was provided for State, Province, or Region. My details: Country: Kosovo State/Province/Region: Kosovo Region (selected from the available option) I have verified my information multiple times, but the error appears every time. I have contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times over the past month.I have not received any response (positive or negative). I need to complete enrollment to publish my apps, and this delay is blocking my work.

Apple Developer Account Conversion to Organization Still Pending After Submitting Business Document
I’m looking for advice from anyone who has gone through the process of converting an Apple Developer account to an Organization / Company account. I’ve been trying to convert my account for organization and the process has been taking much longer than expected. Apple initially requested documentation to verify both the business and my authority to act on behalf of the company. So far, I have already provided or prepared everything they ask for. At this point, I’ve been waiting for 9 days without much clarity on whether my documents are sufficient

Advice on Payments and Compliance for an iOS App
I’m building an iOS app where real money moves based on goal completion results, including transfers between users. I need a real money flow that supports top ups, internal balance updates, and withdrawals. I’m launching in the EU first and want to avoid building the wrong architecture from the start. I’d appreciate practical guidance from anyone who has shipped similar apps: When can external payment processors be used for real money flows? If users can withdraw real money, what compliance requirements are usually needed first? Is it as complicated as I think? This is my first project of this kind, so I want to approach it correctly. Thank you in advance.

Appcrash on M4 MAX
I develop and build the DeepSkyStacker application on an M4 Mac Mini. A user reports that with a given set of data files and application settings, that it crashes on his M4 MAX. He sent me his data files, and I can't provoke a crash on my M4. He also sent an App Crash report file which I attach. Any insight into the likely cause of the problem will be appreciated (yes, I know it is a segfault in code called from Avx256Stacking::pixelPartitioning - probably a lambda ...). dss-6.1.3-crash.log

Country missing from address section for Swift Student Challenge
Hello Apple Developer Community, I am planning to participate in the Swift Student Challenge 2026. However, while reviewing the application form, I noticed that my country of residence is not listed in the address dropdown menu. I would like to clarify the correct way to proceed in this situation to avoid disqualification: Is it permissible to use the address of a relative who lives in a supported region as my contact address? Is filling out the shipping address mandatory for the initial submission, or is there an option to proceed without it? I want to ensure I fully comply with the Terms and Conditions. Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Are Xcode warnings like this safe to submit (won’t disqualify)?
I’m building a Swift Playgrounds app (.swiftpm) in Xcode 26.2 and I consistently see this warning, even on brand-new Swift Playgrounds apps created from the default template: “Skipping duplicate build file in Compile Sources build phase: /Users/.../.swiftpm/Media.xcassets” Everything builds and runs normally and all images/assets appear correctly, so it seems like it’s just an annoying warning. I’ve checked for duplicates and don’t see the asset catalog listed twice, but the warning still appears whenever I add an asset catalog to any playground project in Xcode. Is this warning safe to ignore for submission, and it won’t affect Swift Student Challenge eligibility?
