Hello Apple Developer Community, I am trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual from India, but I have been unable to complete enrollment despite multiple attempts. Whenever I open the Apple Developer app on my MacBook Air and select Continue Your Enrollment, I receive: "Unable to Continue. Contact support at https://developer.apple.com/contact/." What I have tried Used multiple Apple Accounts – the same issue occurs. Updated macOS to the latest version available to me. Used the Apple Developer app downloaded from the official App Store. Tried adding the payment method through both account.apple.com and the Mac App Store. Contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times. Current situation Country: India Enrollment type: Individual Device: MacBook Air, Apple M5, 16 GB RAM macOS: 27.2 (26B123) Identity verification: Never prompted Enrollment error: Unable to Continue The most frustrating part is that Apple Support has only sent automatic acknowledgement emails. Despite several follow-ups, I have not received a meaningful response or a clear explanation of the issue. Request for assistance Has anyone in India successfully resolved this exact enrollment error? Can Apple Developer Support manually review or reset a blocked enrollment? Is there a known account-side restriction or enrollment-system issue that causes this error? Is there an effective escalation channel for Indian developers when Developer Support does not respond? I am willing to complete any additional identity verification or provide the necessary documents through Apple's secure channels. I would appreciate assistance from anyone who has experienced and resolved this issue, particularly Apple Developer Support representatives. Thank you.

Our organization enrollment, ID KV9A5X2YR2, has been pending since October 20. In that time Apple has not called, has not emailed, and has not explained what is holding it up. Support case 103014527097, opened October 31, has never received a reply. Phone support says it is unavailable due to high volume. The phone line tells you to use the website. And the website contact form now fails with an error every time I try to follow up. There is literally no working way to reach Apple about this. We are a venture studio that builds and launches apps, and this product is pre-launch. Our iPhone app is finished and our Android app is already in testing on Google Play, but we cannot open our website to the public until the iPhone app is ready for release. So the whole launch is now blocked only by Apple, and every week of silence costs us users and momentum. I have signed authority for the company and documents ready to send the moment anyone asks. Judging by this forum, we are far from the only ones. For a platform that depends on developers, this is a deeply disappointing way to treat the businesses trying to build on it. Could someone at Apple please flag this enrollment and case for review?

Hi, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program (Individual) for the first time in September 2026. The payment went through, I accepted the License Agreement, and Developer Support confirmed by email that my membership is active until September 2027. But my account showed a wrong expiry date of November 1, 2026. I never had a developer account before, so I don't know where that date came from. Since then: Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles says "Unable to find a team" My account page says "Enroll today" Under my name, the team shows a strange string like "Name|number|1" instead of my team name Everything worked at first. In October I created a development certificate for my team, and it's still valid and not revoked. So the team seems to exist but is no longer linked to my account. I also have my first app waiting for review. I have an open support case, but no reply yet. Phone support isn't available in my country, and I haven't enrolled again, to avoid creating a duplicate team. Has anyone had a new membership with a wrong expiry date, or been disconnected from their team like this? How did you get it fixed or escalated? I can share my case number privately with Apple staff. Thanks!

I've been waiting for two months, and I don't know why the problem hasn't been solved until now. You said it was restored, but my login account still shows that I can only contact you, but I can't use it normally. Have you done your duty? Or is it that none of your development staff is online? I don't know why it takes two months for such a big company to deal with such a problem. If we wait any longer, our company will go bankrupt!

Hello, I know this forum is not meant for account or enrollment issues, and I apologize for posting here. But I honestly have no other option left. Apple Developer Support has been extremely slow to respond, and since I am in Pakistan, the phone call-back option is not even available in my region. I feel completely stuck, with no way to talk to anyone at Apple about my own account. OLD ISSUE (Case ID: 103006700501) I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual using the Apple Developer app on my iPhone. My enrollment got stuck with "Contact Us to Continue" and "ID Verification Rejected". I submitted the support form multiple times and never received a single reply. After waiting about 7 days, the Enroll option was suddenly re-enabled on my account. But no one replied to my case, no one explained what went wrong, and no one told me what I needed to fix. The button just came back silently. NEW ISSUE (Case ID: 103012960482) As soon as the Enroll option was re-enabled, I applied again. I used the same passport, the same legal name (exactly as it appears on my passport), the same residential address, and the same details as before. All of my information is correct and genuine. I have nothing to hide. Within about an hour, my enrollment was rejected again. The app now shows "ID Verification Rejected" and "Contact Us to Continue" once more. I have submitted yet another support request under Membership and Account > Program Enrollment. I have to be honest: this has been one of the most frustrating experiences I have had. I waited 7 long days for my account to be re-enabled, only for it to be rejected again within an hour, with no reason at all. I am a genuine person using my real passport, and I am being treated as if I have done something wrong, without anyone telling me what it is. Every day this drags on, my business loses time. My customers are waiting for our iOS app, and I keep telling them "soon" without knowing when, or even if, this will ever be resolved. I cannot fix a problem that no one will explain to me. If I simply re-apply with the same genuine documents, I will get the same result again. I do not want to keep going around in this loop of waiting a week, applying, getting rejected within an hour, and hearing nothing back. MY REQUEST Please do not just re-enable the Enroll button again without any explanation. Instead, could an Apple staff member or the enrollment verification team please do one of the following: Tell me what exactly is causing the rejection, so I can fix it. Ask me to send my documents directly for manual verification. I am ready to provide my passport, national ID card (CNIC), proof of address, business registration documents, or anything else you need, right away. Review my case and approve my application. About me: I am the founder of a licensed travel agency in Pakistan, and I want to publish our iOS app on the App Store so our customers can book flights and Umrah packages from their iPhones. Case IDs: Previous: 103006700501 Current: 103012960482 I am hoping Quinn "The Eskimo!" or any other Apple staff member can please look into my account or escalate it to the enrollment team. I am not asking for any special treatment, just a clear answer and a fair chance to get verified. Any help would be truly appreciated. Thank you, Ahsan Raza

Tried three times now and absolutely cannot get Xcode 27 to install iOS 27 Simulators. I have done a complete uninstall of Xcode (including things in ~/Library). And even purged /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime/ When Xcode 27 (27A266a; release version) is installed and run the first time, I'm greeted with the SDK screen. I select iOS and it downloads that runtime. I can see it in Xcode's Components panel in Settings. I only see Any iOS Device as a target device in Xcode. If I launch Device Hub, it's empty and I cannot add any devices since the Add dialog shows No Runtimes Available. Selecting "Add Platforms in Xcode" takes me back to Xcode, but I only ever see iOS 26.5 or older in the list. I've even tried the various xcrun simctl commands, but to no avail. Why is it so difficult to have a clean install of Xcode 27, have it install the iOS 27 SDK and then be able to build and run existing projects? I'm on the release version of macOS 27.0.1 though the problems persisted earlier today on macOS 27.0 as well.

i have a macbook pro late 2019 and has stopped take any major update software like mac os 27 i had the version of xcode 26.5 which by the way it was crashing many time before the update that it get today the version 27.2 and it says that it can't be opened because it doesn't support this mac ,my question is what should i do ,i get a new one which i can't financialy or there are any updates that i can update the app and worked just fine and be compatible. For me it's not right to disable apps just because there is a new software version and apple can't supported anymore there rest of us what do we do we become thieves.

How do I get out of the Apple Beta Developer Program? Stop receiving developer beta software updates, Can someone help me, please? ps: Sorry for my English

I'm a paid Apple Developer Program member. Apple Developer Support confirmed by phone that my account has no restrictions, but every development-signed app I install on my registered iPhone is rejected. Environment iPhone 17 Pro,1, iOS 27.0 (24A435), Developer Mode enabled Device registered and enabled in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles Signed with Apple Development certificates (issuer: WWDR G3), iOS App Development profiles Error ApplicationVerificationFailed 0xe8008018: The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.On the device: "This app was not installed because its integrity could not be verified." Device log during installation installd(libmis): Performing online authorization. online-auth-agent: The server returned: {"actions":["REJECT_PROFILE"],"authorized":false,...} online-auth-agent: Permanently rejected profile: <hash, <profile UUID installd(libmis): No online authorization (0x2) installd(libmis): validation failed because of failing online authorization (-402620392)What I've ruled out Not certificate revocation: trustd reports OCSP status revoked=0 definitive=1 for the whole chain. Not app-specific: a brand-new, empty test app with a newly created App ID and a newly created development profile fails identically. Not certificate-specific: same result with two different Apple Development certificates, each in its own freshly generated profile (three profiles in total, all rejected). The provisioning profiles contain the device UDID and the signing certificate, and the app's entitlements are a subset of the profile's. Questions Under what conditions does the online authorization service return REJECT_PROFILE / authorized:false for a paid team whose account shows no restrictions? Is this a known issue with iOS 27 and development profiles? Since the device marks each profile as "permanently rejected", how can I restore authorization for my team on this device once the cause is fixed?

Hello Apple Support Team, I am unable to add my bank account in App Store Connect. At the final submission step, I consistently receive the error “Bank key doesn’t exist,” which prevents me from saving my banking information. I selected my bank and branch directly from Apple’s bank search list. My banking details are correct, but the error persists. The selected bank record is: Bank: Yapi ve Kredi Bankasi AS Branch location: Batman, Batman, Türkiye Bank/branch code displayed by Apple: 0067 01088 072 My Paid Apps Agreement remains in “Pending User Info” status because I cannot complete the banking setup. Could you please investigate whether the selected bank/branch record has a missing or mismatched bank key in your system and help me complete the setup? Please let me know if you need any additional information. Thank you for your assistance. Kind regards, Ahmet Mert KORKUT

Hello Apple Developer Support / App Review Team, My first iOS app, **PlanB: Dating, Social & Plans**, has remained in Waiting for Review since **October 13, 2026**. Submission ID: **28c83367-dd0b-4a22-b244-149277121d0d** The submission includes the iOS app version and associated in-app purchases and subscriptions. All submitted items continue to show Waiting for Review as of October 23, 2026. I have already submitted an expedited review request through the official portal and raised a support ticket, but I have not received any response or any indication that the review has started. This **delay is blocking the planned launch of my app** which is planned on 27Oct. I understand that review timelines can vary, and I am ready to provide any additional information or resolve any issues immediately. Could you please: - Confirm whether my expedited review request has been received and considered. - Confirm whether any information, agreement, or other requirement is preventing the review from starting. - Escalate the submission for review or advise me on the appropriate next step. I would appreciate any clarification on the status of this submission. Regards, PlanB Developer

I purchased the $99 membership 2 weeks ago and it’s still pending; is there any solution to this?

Hi, I'm an enrolled Apple Developer Program member. My membership is approved and I've already submitted my app for App Review, but I can no longer sign in to my Apple Account because two-factor verification codes can't be delivered. What happens: Sign-in with SMS fails with error -28248: "Verification codes can't be sent to this phone number at this time. Please try again later." Account Recovery (adding a phone number to receive instructions) returns the same -28248 error, even with a second number on a different carrier. The account flags show it isn't locked (securityCodeLocked: false, tooManyCodesSent: false), so this looks like an SMS delivery problem to +880 numbers rather than an account lock. I don't have a trusted Apple device signed in to this Apple Account, so I can't use "Get Verification Code". I opened a Developer Support case on November 6, 2026: Case ID: 30000007200849 (Membership and Account → Account Access) Because of this I can't respond to App Review or manage my app in App Store Connect. If anyone from Apple can look at this case, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

I have been waiting for over 2 weeks now for getting my account activated, and now the account is still pending? Is there any solution please? Best regards Kais

I'm posting here because I've been trying to resolve an Apple Developer Program enrollment issue for several weeks, and despite contacting Apple Developer Support multiple times, my membership is still not activated. I would appreciate any advice from Apple staff or developers who have experienced something similar. What happened – Timeline October 2, 2026 – Initial account setup I signed the Apple Developer Agreement and started the enrollment process. October 9, 2026 – Initial enrollment I received a reminder from Apple to complete the purchase of my Apple Developer Program membership. October 15, 2026 – Payment and enrollment problems I attempted to purchase the annual Apple Developer Program membership ($99). My initial payment attempt was declined by my bank's fraud protection because the transaction originated from another country. I contacted my bank, confirmed that the transaction was legitimate, and authorized the payment. However, when I tried to proceed again, Apple's system returned a "duplicate order" error, preventing me from completing the enrollment. I contacted Apple Developer Support and explained the situation. October 16, 2026 – Order and invoice An Apple Store order was generated for the annual Apple Developer Program membership: Order: D005362697 Invoice: MD20633085 Amount: $99 I received Apple's order confirmation and invoice receipt. October 20–21, 2026 – Support case opened I contacted Apple Developer Support through the official contact form. My request was registered under a support case. October 23, 2026 – Apple confirms payment is linked to my original enrollment This is probably the most important part of the entire case. A Developer Support representative (Pallavi) reviewed my account and explicitly confirmed: "My payment is linked to my old enrollment." Apple asked me to confirm whether I wanted to keep the original enrollment instead of creating a new one. I immediately confirmed that I wanted to keep the original enrollment associated with my payment and asked Apple to complete and activate it. I also clarified that I did not need the newer enrollment. October 22–November 2 – Additional enrollment and support complications A newer enrollment was created with a different enrollment ID. Following the instructions I received while trying to resolve the duplicate-order issue, this newer enrollment was withdrawn. Apple subsequently sent confirmation that the newer enrollment had been withdrawn. On November 2, I also submitted another support request through Apple's central Program Enrollment contact form, which generated a second support case. November 2–3 – Apple asks whether I intentionally withdrew my enrollment A different support representative (Cheryl) contacted me and asked whether withdrawing the enrollment had been intentional. I explained everything again: I intentionally withdrew the newer enrollment because I was instructed to do so to resolve the duplicate-order problem. I do NOT want a new enrollment. I want Apple to activate my original enrollment, which is associated with my $99 payment. My account still displays "Purchase your membership", despite the existing order and payment. I also asked Apple to consolidate both support cases so that the issue would not be handled as two unrelated requests. I asked for a telephone number I could call from Greece, since the website only appeared to offer email support. November 6 – Still unresolved After weeks of waiting, repeated explanations, and multiple support interactions, I still had no resolution. I sent another message expressing my frustration and asking Apple to simply activate the Developer Program membership associated with my existing payment. As of November 7, 2026, my issue remains unresolved. The actual problem What I cannot understand is: Apple has an existing order and invoice for the $99 Apple Developer Program membership. Apple Developer Support explicitly confirmed that the payment is linked to my original enrollment. Apple asked me whether I wanted to keep that original enrollment, and I explicitly confirmed that I did. The newer enrollment was withdrawn intentionally to avoid the duplicate-order problem. Despite all this, my Apple Developer account continues to display "Purchase your membership". Nobody has actually activated the original enrollment or provided a concrete technical explanation for why this cannot be done. What I need from Apple I am NOT asking for a new membership, a second charge, or a transfer of payment to another account. I simply want Apple to: Locate the original enrollment associated with my existing $99 payment. Correct the enrollment/payment status in its system. Activate my original Apple Developer Program membership. Confirm that I can access the Developer Program benefits without having to pay again. Is there a reliable way to contact Apple Developer Support by phone from Greece or Europe? I've already spent weeks trying to resolve something that should theoretically be a straightforward account/payment synchronization issue. I would really appreciate any help, especially from someone at Apple who can investigate this beyond the standard support responses. Thank you.

How long does it usually take to enroll my company in the Apple Development Program? I am still waiting for my enrollment to be processed. Thanks

Hi, I have been trying to enroll for the Apple Developer Program for 2-3 weeks now, I have even sent in previous cases/emails for this same issue. The issue in my situation is that the payment for the Apple Developer Program is not even being authorized. No matter what credit card I use or what device I try from (mobile, laptop, desktop), I always get the same issue of the payment not being authorized. I have even created new apple accounts to try and purchase the program on there, but I still get the same problem of the failed transaction. When I went to check my credit card transaction history and with the card company, I was notified of the payment not even being on the card's history (completed or failed). The issue is not of the card(s), but of the website not even processing the payment I try to make. How can I get enrolled for the Developer Program with my current situation? Can someone please help enroll me?

I have encountered a possible compatibility issue with apps built using Xcode 27.1 and running on iOS 15.8 devices. Development environment Xcode 27.1 macOS 27.2 Build Configuration: Debug iOS Deployment Target: 15.8 Test device iPhone 7 iOS 15.8 Observed behavior When running an app built with Xcode 27.1 on an iPhone 7 running iOS 15.8, button interactions sometimes fail to update the user interface. The button press animation is displayed, indicating that the button is being interacted with. However, the expected UI state changes are sometimes not reflected, even after repeated taps. This behavior affects multiple buttons, rather than a single specific button. Comparison An IPA built with Xcode 26.2 works correctly on the same iPhone 7. An IPA built with Xcode 27.1 exhibits the UI update problem. The app runs correctly in the Xcode 27.1 Simulator. Question Is there a known compatibility issue in Xcode 27.1, its Swift compiler, or the iOS SDK that could cause SwiftUI UI updates to fail on iOS 15 devices? Although iOS 15.8 is available as a deployment target, I would like to know whether apps built with Xcode 27.1 are expected to work correctly on iOS 15 devices. Has anyone encountered similar behavior?

在通用架构版本 Xcode 26.3 中，在 Storyboard/Xib、表情键盘和配套的模拟器 iOS 26.2 (23C57) SDK + iOS 26.3.1 (23D8133) Simulator 中存在BUG，无法显示 emoji 表情图案。 虽然现在已经有了更新版本，但是 Xcode 26.3 是 macOS Sequoia 最后支持的版本，也就是有一批设备无法更新 Xcode 软件，只能使用 Xcode 26.3 版本，所以请求官方能修复此问题。 由于更新策略，2019年的苹果电脑最高只能升级到 macOS Sequoia 系统。 从控制台日志来看，不能显示 emoji 表情的 BUG 仅仅是因为缺少 AppleColorEmoji.ttc 和 hapticpatternlibrary.plist 文件。看上去是模拟器的问题，仅更新模拟器镜像文件应该就能修复吧。 FontParser could not open filePath /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_23D8133/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 26.3.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Fonts/Core/AppleColorEmoji.ttc: [2: No such file or directory] <_UIKBFeedbackGenerator: 0x60000351f700>: Error creating CHHapticPattern: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=260 "未能打开文件“hapticpatternlibrary.plist”，因为它不存在。" UserInfo={NSFilePath=/Library/Audio/Tunings/Generic/Haptics/Library/hapticpatternlibrary.plist, NSURL=file:///Library/Audio/Tunings/Generic/Haptics/Library/hapticpatternlibrary.plist, NSUnderlyingError=0x600000d29bc0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"}}

On Xcode 27 with macOS 27.0.1, I observed Xcode marking an existing project as locked because its file supposedly did not exist. The project used the traditional project.pbxproj format. That file existed, parsed successfully, was readable, and had no filesystem lock flags. Command-line builds succeeded, but the editor continued to show the lock warning. Selecting Unlock produced this error: The file “project.xcproj” could not be unlocked. Could not find the file. There was no project.xcproj in that PBX-format project. A separate minimal iOS project also reproduced the same missing-file lock warning. That sample contains one application target, a minimal Swift source file, and signing disabled. This reproduction suggests the warning is not specific to the main application's source or extensions. These observations were recorded on 10 October 2026. I have not retested the sample today. Apple Developer Technical Support directed me to post the issue here. Is this a known project-lock tracking issue involving the alternative project filenames? What supported diagnostic evidence would help establish why Xcode reports the project as locked, and is there a supported workaround that preserves the existing project format? A standalone reproduction was prepared during the investigation. I can arrange to share it after checking the files for public release.
