Hi all, Has anyone else been getting stuck with the iOS Developer Program enrolment? I've been stalled for nearly two months, and is directly preventing us from releasing app updates to our users. Issue Summary: Our enrolment has been stuck at the status "Your enrolment is being processed" for approximately two months We have submitted the required details multiple times with no resolution The contact form for email and phone support returns the error: "there was a problem processing your request" Phone numbers listed for developer support in Ireland are either non-functional or connect to sales support only We contacted "contactus.ie at euro.apple.com", were again directed to sales support, and were told the matter would be escalated internally — this was nearly a month ago and we have received no further communication. It's very frustrating as our dev team has deployed two Android updates since. It's really impacting our products and I need to get this resolved asap. It's crazy that once the in built contact forms fail you are pretty much cut off from dev customer support. No email or phone number to get a hold of someone to resolve the block. All lines just lead back to sales support. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks Damian

Hello! I've been trying to automate tests using Appium/XCUITests in a React Native APP, but I'm finding many blockers. They are related to the amount of nested elements in the "DOM" in which the XCUItest can not go deeper to get all the elements we need. snapshotMaxDepth -> The XCUITest does not support more than 60 value, otherwise it returns the following error: Got response with status 404: {"value":{"error":"stale element reference","message":"The previously found element "Application 'xyz.xxx.xxx'" is not present in the current view anymore. Make sure the application UI has the expected state.

Is there any solid documentation to get the controllers to work in my experience? I am having the hardest time figuring out how to get the controllers to work properly. I get them to work in the system, but within my project, they work, but inconsistent and some buttons will not register taps, grabs, grips, etc

I have my 2 apps written in .NET MAUI on the PC. I have had success deploying them to the Apple App Store from within Visual Studio. https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/the-club-referee/id6752123189 https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/the-club-fan/id6751670297 However sometimes when I go through the Compile - Publish - Distribute process I get no errors but still the app does not appear in TestFlight. Is there anyway I can see where it's failing? Is there an extension for Visual Studio that will show the errors? Can I look on my MacMini and find the deployment errors there?

Hello, my Apple Developer Program had expired 20 days ago, but i cant renew in any way (auto-renew dont work, i dont have "renew button" on web, dont have it in iOS and macOS developer apps, so i cant renew it. Has anyone encountered this problem? How can i solve it and renew my membership?

Hello. I don't know if this is a place to ask questions and get solutions, but I think there will be a lot of experts gathered, so I'm posting it. I'm a student who recently started learning Xcode. In the book, you can see a graph-shaped pop-up window by pressing the eye-shaped quick look button in the Xcode playground, but I can't find that button in my Xcode 26 version. Can you tell me where the button is? I'm sorry for asking such a basic question.

I paid 99$ the fee for apple developer and still get the message Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process. And pending in the profile menu !

I'm hoping someone here has experienced the same issue and can point me in the right direction. My Apple Developer Program membership recently expired and my apps have been removed from the App Store. I've been trying to renew my membership but I'm completely stuck and cannot find a way forward. Here's what I've tried so far: Apple Developer App: There is no "Renew" button visible anywhere in the app. developer.apple.com/enroll: I receive the following error: "Sorry, you can't enroll at this time. Your Apple Account is already associated with the Account Holder of a membership." developer.apple.com/account: The Membership Details section loads but there is no renewal option or button available. I am logged in with the correct Account Holder Apple ID, so that is not the issue. My payment method on file is also valid. Has anyone else run into this? Is there a direct link or a workaround that triggers the renewal flow? Or is contacting Apple Developer Support the only option at this point? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I just noticed this but am curious: Why does Xcode use list.bullet SF Symbol to toggle the "navigators" (sidebar) instead of sidebar.left? For the inspectors Xcode uses "sidebar.right" but I don't understand why the left sidebar uses a different icon from the right sidebar? Shouldn't the left sidebar icon match the right sidebar (just flipped)? Am using the wrong SF Symbol in my app to toggle the sidebar? Is the list.bullet the recommended symbol for this now? Every other app seems to use sidebar.left.

Hey everyone. This is probably the last straw I am trying to pull since I tried almost everything else. I have applied for the Apple Developer Program and the whole process started at the end of 2024. I got rejected the first time because Apple could not charge my card. It was clearly shown that the cost is $99, however, it was 106.65 Euros (I created a Revolut card with the $100 because I don't trust placing my card everywhere). I started the new process but this time I knew about the amount issue so I placed 150 Euros just to be safe. Automatic rejection with robotic AI response: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time." When I raised ticket about it I got no replies. Than both my friend and wife tried to apply for the program. Both rejected with the exact same messaging. I created a new Apple ID, new card, new everything and did everything "by the book". Again. Rejection with the same exact messaging: For one or more reasons, your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program couldn't be completed. We can't continue with your enrollment at this time... Can someone from Apple please tell me what are those reasons? I have been an Apple user for almost 10 years now. I was buying Apps from store. I am using iCloud+. Modest Citizen as some would say. What's the problem? How can I finally get to Apple Developer Program without being rejected by AI or some poor auto system?

I am trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program but cannot get past the enrolment screen in the Developer app on my Mac. When I click Enroll, it does not proceed to the payment screen, it just says unable to compete, contact support. I then received an email from Apple Developer Support saying my enrolment "couldn't be completed due to one or more reasons". I'm not even sure how that email is even helpful. I am an individual developer based in India trying to publish my first app on the App Store. My Apple ID is in good standing and I have no history of policy violations. Has anyone in India experienced this issue and resolved it? Is this a known problem with Indian Apple IDs or payment methods? Is there a way to enroll directly through the website instead of the Mac app? Any help appreciated.

Greetings! I'm running into multiple issues trying to enroll into the developer program. When I try enrolling via the Mac app the enroll button is greyed out. When I try enrolling using the web page I get the error: "We are unable to process your request". I tried contacting Apple support but they neither call me nor can I submit a support request via the written form (it doesn't submit). Is there some other way to contact Apple for support? Thank you!

I have been trying to open an Apple Developer Account for the last 3 weeks. Its been a nightmare. The call back option is switched off. The team is not replying back to messages. I was told a week back, there is a long queue. I have been making payments which are getting revoked after a day. Not sure how to proceed. Any suggestions, about how to resolve this and get things going here. Is there anyway, someone can please help me.

I used to live in the US. I had a developer subscription. I moved to India. I need to renew my subscription but it errors out with "There may be certain requirements to view this content." I cannot renew using my Indian credit card without updating my Region/Country but I cannot update it without renewing.

Hello, About 7-8 months ago, I received an e-mail stating that my apple developer account would be deleted after 30 days, and my account was deleted after 30 days. I tried to contact many times, I got hopeful each time, but the Apple team never gave a full explanation. They always responded saying they would be interested, but it never came to fruition. In fact, I was most excited when I received the following e-mail: Hello Oğuzcan, My name is Joel, and I’m a senior Advisor with Developer Support. Your case has been given to me for further handling, and I’m happy to follow up with you today. I understand that you have initiated a conversation in our developer forums. Please, provide us more information and show us the email that you received, so we will assist your better. Please, reply to the received email for obtaining more information as the appropriate team will be able to assist you better. Please, reply to this email if you have further questions. Have a great day. Best Regards, Joel Developer Support I was very hopeful when I read that he was a Senior Advisor. This e-mail came on July 28, 18:17, today is December 8, 2025. I'm giving up hope now, my account won't be opened again. My members ask why there are no iOS versions of my applications, this is very difficult for me. Does anyone have any recommendations? I filled out forms and created requests many times.

Xcode 26.4.1, iOS 26.4.2, watchOS 26.4, Apple Watch Ultra 3 not appearing as development device. Can't do any IWatch development

For me it looks like Xcode 26 has problems reading SPM packages from a locally hosted BitBucket git solution. While Xcode 16 work perfectly fine, Xcode 26 fails to load and gives "Server SSH Fingerprint Failed to Verify" as error description. Cleaning build data and DerivedData sometimes makes loading work. Any change in Package dependencies will break it again. Anyone having same problems? How do you handle it?

Hello, I have Xcode Cloud set up on a project with multiple targets. One target is a Framework that hosts a Swift Package that's used to host modules. I recently added a large number of files (at least 20,000) to some test targets and I can no longer access Xcode Cloud from the Cloud Reports section. Xcode prepares to analyze the project and then fails with Could not load Xcode Cloud Data Removing the files from the package results in the project being analyzed successfully. So it appears to be some sort of a timeout issue. Thank you
