I have created and Ios app using xojo, and run using the Xcode simulator. I want to test it on my phone and don't seed to put it on the app store as it is for personal use. I've seen pages that indicate a free apple developer option is available for a limited time but can't for the live of me get my app to actually run on my phone. I've tried both apple configurator and xcode to add my app with no luck

My application uses a text file with an extension of .dssfilelist. On Linux I would register the Mime type and associate it with the application in the .desktop file. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <mime-info xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info"> <mime-type type="text/dssfilelist"> <comment>DeepSkyStacker file-list file</comment> <glob pattern="*.dssfilelist" /> </mime-type> </mime-info> I believe that I need to add stuff to the Info.plist for my application, but I also understand that CFBundleTypeExtensions is deprecated. So please could you show me what I now need to add to the Info.plist file so that these files will be registered as "text/dssfilelist" type and associated with my application and to associate a .icns file with it?

I’ve developed a virtual machine manager application using the macOS Virtualization framework. The application currently supports both NAT and bridged networking configurations. I’m now looking to implement host-only networking, where the guest VM can communicate with the host but not with external networks. Is this networking mode supported by the Virtualization framework, and if so, what is the recommended approach to set it up? Additionally, I would like to implement port forwarding from the host to the guest (e.g., redirecting traffic from a specific port on the host to a port on the guest). Is there a way to configure port forwarding using the built-in APIs of the Virtualization framework, or would this require a custom networking solution? Any guidance or best practices for implementing these features within the constraints of the framework would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, According to the official documentation, the macOS Virtualization Framework currently supports only macOS and Linux guest operating systems. I would like to know if there is any way—officially or through a supported workaround—to run Windows 11 as a guest using this framework. Additionally, is there any indication or roadmap suggesting that support for Windows guests might be introduced in a future release, such as in macOS 16? Any insights or official clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I observed the following problem: A scientific code to perform Reverse Monte Carlo simulations (‘rmcxas’) compiled with the most up to date version of gcc/gfortran and Xcode including command line tools on Mac OS Sequoia 15.4 on a Macbook air with M4 processor generates the following problem upon starting it in a terminal: dyld[10154]: dyld cache '(null)' not loaded: syscall to map cache into shared region failed dyld[10154]: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib Referenced from: <0144F82E-003C-37A9-A544-9AE6336E549B> /Users/markuswinterer/bin/rmcxas Reason: tried: '/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib' (no such file), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib' (no such file), '/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib' (no such file, no dyld cache), '/usr/local/lib/libSystem.B.dylib' (no such file) zsh: abort rmcxas This occurs only about every 5th time the code is started. Help would be highly appreciated.

Hi, From App analytics, we found that our app crashed from time to time on users' devices despite that we have tested it thoroughly on our devices. We are doubt that it's the reason why we can't retain them. But how can we get the crash reports for the app installed on user devices? We have no users' emails and can't ask them directly.

Hello, I recently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and created an App ID with the bundle ID com.echo.eyes.voice. I am trying to enable Speech Recognition in the App ID capabilities list, but the option does not appear — even after waiting over a week since my membership was activated. I’ve already: Confirmed my Apple Developer account is active Checked the Identifiers section in the Developer portal Tried editing the App ID, but Speech Recognition is not listed Contacted both Developer Support and Developer Technical Support (Case #102594089120), but was told to post here for help My app uses Capacitor + the @capacitor-community/speech-recognition plugin. I need the com.apple.developer.speech-recognition entitlement to appear so I can use native voice input in iOS. I would really appreciate help from an Apple engineer or anyone who has faced this issue. Thank you, — Daniel Colyer

Hello Team! Recently we cleaned up profiles and renewed certificates under developer account, noticing profile expiration date showing invalid, it supposed to show certificate expiration date. Due to this I am not able to update or download profiles. Any one experienced this this? what would be the solution?. Thanks, Kumar.

Recently we tried to update the plist.info file in one of our apps to specify an LSMinimumSystemVersion of 16.0 but when uploading this to App Store Connect using the Transporter app we received an error that this setting cannot be any higher than 15.2. Is there any way around this? Will this be changing soon?

Hello, I'm not a developer. I have an app in the App Store and an Apple Developer account. I have two questions: 1. I'm trying to find out exactly where the source code of my app is located - I can't. It should be in Xcode. There is only Xcode cloud in my account, which is inactive. 2. I want to find out what programming language my app is written in. How do I do this?

Is this a valid thing to include in the Info.plist file? If so is a category of public.app-category.astronomyvalid? I couldn't find that, but the categories I did find seemed very limited.

We are trying to setup Apple Unity Plugins, in out project we have a handful of developers who contribute to the project via git. When building and importing plugins via tarball (as instructed in the Github repo) the package clearly points to local path, so once pushed all members encounter the error: An error occurred while resolving packages: Project has invalid dependencies: com.apple.unityplugin.accessibility: Tarball package [com.apple.unityplugin.accessibility] cannot be found at path ..... When trying to actually move content to the package folder (same way as any other unity plugins is setup) and add it as "embedded", it works fine on local machine, but team members will get a few of errors: [Apple Unity Plug-ins] No Apple native plug-in libraries found. DLLNotFoundException: AppleCoreNativeMac assembly ... No Apple Native plug-in libraries found. Moreover AppleCoreNativeMac.bundle is flag as not verified and deleted by macOS. What is the right way to setup unity plugins in a project used by multiple members via sourcetree ?

Has anyone here successfully set up macOS as a globally accessible, multiuser development server using native remote login (SSH) and VS Code Remote?

I was just having a look at some crash reports downloaded by Xcode, and I noticed the same wrong pattern I already mentioned here: the crash reports indicate that method A calls method B, which is impossible. In the first crash report below, method MainViewController.showSettings seems to be called by ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder, which is impossible. ConfirmMoveViewController.openSourceInFinder is a context menu action in a modal window, and MainViewController.showSettings is in a completely different window and the two methods have no relation whatsoever. In the second crash report below, MainViewController.setSortMode is triggered by the press of a button (and nothing else) but seems to be called by OtherViewController.copy that can be triggered by a context menu (or keyboard shortcut). The two methods have no relation whatsoever. The rest of the stack trace confirm that it's indeed the button that was pressed. This seems to me like a quite serious bug in how macOS creates crash reports. 1.crash 2.crash

I'm trying to create a new build from VSC through EAS (expo) but it's failing and returning the error I'm attaching. I'm running the command eas build --profile preview --platform ios. I have an "App Manager" account, my colleague has the same role and he can do builds normally. I have other permissions and accesses ok, as can be seen in the attached picture, but apparently I have the issue in "register bundle identifier". Does anyone faced the same issue? How can I solve this? What step I'm missing? Thanks in advance!

Hello, my app has a custom font for some UI elements. When building with XCODE to my local device, all works and looks great. When distributing with TestFlight, the font doesn't seem to apply! Yes, I've included the .ttf in my Development assets, anyone else having this issue with the TestFlight Distribution of their app?

I am building an iOS app with the App ID: com.echo.eyes.app I have a paid Apple Developer membership and have followed all correct procedures, including: Adding com.apple.developer.speech-recognition manually to the App.entitlements file Setting Info.plist keys for microphone and speech permissions Assigning my Apple Developer Team to the project Setting App/App.entitlements under Code Signing Entitlements Despite all this, Xcode automatic signing fails, and I receive the error: vbnet Copy Edit Provisioning profile 'iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.echo.eyes.app' doesn't include the com.apple.developer.speech-recognition entitlement. I am unable to add the entitlement via the Capabilities section, and no method I try will allow provisioning to succeed. Please update this App ID to include the required entitlement in the provisioning profile. This issue is preventing all voice recognition functionality. Thank you.

I can see that a MacOS VM guest running on top of an Apple Silicon MacOS host has GPU acceleration - indicating GPU sharing capabilities for the hardware. Is there also a way to have GPU acceleration in Linux guests (with Vulkan/Mesa drivers)?
