Cannot Renew Account
Every time I try to renew my Apple Developer account, I get a message like "This item is not available in your country or region." (I'm in the United States) I reached out to Apple Developer support via email (because Apple Developer does not offer phone options anymore for any support topics on the website), and they gave me the following response. "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." This is ridiculous! I have multiple apps on the App Store and in TestFlight. I use my Apple Developer account to make a living- how is this even allowed? I have never done anything to violate any terms or agreements. Has anyone else been through this issue and how did they get it resolved?

Enrollment stuck after identity verification via special upload link (non-local passport) — Case ID 102795934998
Hi Apple Developer Support / Community, My Apple Developer Program enrollment is stuck due to identity verification. Country/region: Australia (I’m currently in Australia) Passport: non-local passport (Japanese) The Apple Developer app rejects non-local passport uploads automatically, so Apple Support instructed me to upload documents via a special upload link. Phone support confirmed the documents were received, but there has been no progress for over 2 weeks. I also submitted the Apple Developer Program Support contact form, but have not received any reply. Case ID: 102795934998 I understand the community can’t access my account details. I’m posting to ask: Is there any way to get this routed to the Identity Verification / Enrollment Operations queue? What exact next step should I request from support to unblock enrollment? Has anyone experienced a similar “special upload link” process and long delays? I need this resolved to publish my iOS app. Any guidance or escalation path would be appreciated. Thank you.

MFi enrollment problem
I followed the instructions on the page https://mfi.apple.com/en/help/login-help/How-to-Register-Your-Existing-Apple-ID.html to apply for the MFi Program. According to step 7 of the guide: "You have now created and registered your Apple Account. You will be automatically directed to the MFi Portal to begin the enrollment process," I should have been taken to the enrollment process after logging in. However, instead of accessing the enrollment page, a pop-up message appears stating: "The Apple Account you signed in with does not have permission to view this page. If you believe your company is currently enrolled in the MFi Program, please contact your company’s Account Administrator to request access to the MFi Portal. If your company is not currently enrolled in the MFi Program, please click here to learn about the program and start the enrollment process." This has created an endless loop—I cannot proceed to the enrollment process as instructed, and the pop-up only redirects me to information that leads back to the same login and permission issue. Could you please provide guidance on how to resolve this and successfully access the MFi Program enrollment process?

How do I build a framework and be able to use it within the same project
I am building a framework and an app, the framework is a dependent on the app so that works.. But within the app I can't use #import <OpenGL_4_6/OpenGL_4_6.h> But I have to use #import "OpenGL_4_6/OpenGL_4_6.h" I can see the framework being built its in a directory that I can't seem to express with the $ macros for Xcode Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MGL-bpbwpidwnbulrxgcndprcdmfrosb/Build/Products/Debug I tried to set my framework search path to this.. but to no avail.

How to delete iOS simulator runtimes?
There are multiple iOS simulator runtimes located at /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime which I don't need. I tried the following approaches to delete them but not working. Xcode > Settings > Components > Delete (It can delete some but not all of them) xcrun simctl runtime list (It doesn't show the old runtimes) sudo rm (Operation not permitted) sudo rm -rf cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset Password: rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData/096-69246-684.dmg: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/Info.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/version.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset: Operation not permitted I have two questions: Why "xcrun simctl runtime list" is unable to list some old runtimes? How to delete them?

XCode 26.2 (17C52) vs iOS 26.2 (23C55): Cannot mount any DDI onto my device
Hi... Is there not an available Developer Disk Image for this situation? I am unable to do my professional job because I have not been able to overcome this issue on my machine. I have various things to try to resolve this issue so that I can install, run, and test apps onto my iPhone (iPhone 13). The version of MacOSX is Sequoia 15.7.3. I've tried everything from hard resetting the pairing stack, to resetting the trust on my iPhone. I've even sought help from AI. AI says, in a nutshell I'm screwed. Apparently, I am unable to downgrade from iOS 26.2 to, say, iOS 18 or below. I'll be honest: this is frustrating, and this situation seems to happen like clockwork with every update in either direction. I hope someone somewhere has ideas. Thanks. Update: I'm not even reaching the step where the shared Cache symbols are being copied from my iPhone. The developer disk image could not be mounted on this device.

Apple Developer Program Enrollment as Russian Citizen in 2026
As stated in the title, I'm a Russian citizen located outside of Russia and Belarus. I am trying to enroll into the program as a US LLC that has EIN. I am the only owner and employee of it. Today has been exactly 1 month of me going back and forth with Apple Support. I provided all of the requested information, including company ownership verification, as well as have been verified that I'm not on the sanctions list. For the past two weeks, I have not received any reply from the support. I know that access to the program is heavily restricted for Russian citizens, but I have not seen any mention that I cannot enroll even if I'm applying as a US LLC registered with the IRS. I also did not get any mention from the support that my citizenship is a problem. I am not sure what to do next. Any advice is appreciated.
