Hello, I've encountered unexpected behavior related to version information in our app logs, and I'd like to ask for some advice. We reviewed logs collected from a user running our app (currently available on the App Store). The logs are designed to include both the build number and the app version. Based on the build number in the logs, we believe the installed app version on the user's device is 1.0.3. However, the app version recorded in the logs is 1.1.5, which is the latest version currently available on the App Store. In our project, we set the app version using the MARKETING_VERSION environment variable. This value is configured via XcodeGen, and we define it in a YAML file. Under normal circumstances, the value defined in the YAML file (MARKETING_VERSION = 1.0.3) should be embedded in the app and reflected in the logs. But in this case, the version from the current App Store release (1.1.5) appears instead, which was unexpected. We'd like to know what might cause this behavior, and if there are any known factors that could lead to this. Also, is it possible that MARKETING_VERSION might somehow dynamically reflect the version currently available on the App Store? YAML: info.plist:

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.

I've been happily building and deploying my app to my iPhone and Watch S8, and the app was ready to submit to App Store Connect last night. However, when archiving it I got an error saying that my DynamicEventSelectionIntent was in multiple extensions. It was, kind of. When I started working on the complications I copied the Widgets intents into the complications, and left the name the same, but they were not in multiple targets. It looks like the info plist only had one item in the IntentsSupported (because they're the same name), so I decided to rename them so I had a widget one and a complications one. The problem I have now is that I can't deploy to my iPhone and Watch anymore because I'm getting this error: This app contains a WatchKit app with one or more Siri Intents app extensions that declare IntentsSupported that are not declared in any of the companion app's Siri Intents app extensions. WatchKit Siri Intents extensions' IntentsSupported values must be a subset of the companion app's Siri Intents extensions' IntentsSupported values. All I've done is rename one intent, and locate every instance of it in the info plist files, and add the appropriate new one into the right places. Here's what I've got. Main App contains Widget and WidgetIntentHandler, plus Watch App, which contains Complications and ComplicationsIntentHandler. Target: Main app: (I've removed everything that has no bearing on extensions.) Target: Widget: Target: WidgetIntentHandler: Target: Watch App: Target: Complications: Target: ComplicationsIntentHandler: Please, can someone tell me what should and should not be in the various parts, as I've tried for 12 hours now and I cannot get this to deploy to my iPhone anymore :( Thanks.

Hi, today I upgraded Xcode to Version 16.4 (16F6) and the Simulator to version Version 16.0 (1042.1) since then I get the following message in the debugger with any project when running the simulator: load_eligibility_plist: Failed to open /Users/xxxx/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/1B9FA609-7502-42DE-93A8-B856E2618A7F/data/Containers/Data/Application/4FA1B071-A5F1-4E00-B3AC-630E273DD900/private/var/db/eligibilityd/eligibility.plist: No such file or directory I have checked other similar questions but in my case I do not have Cocoapods installed.

In previous Xcode versions, it was possible to add a folder reference to a project, and in the copy resources build phase it would copy the folder the bundle, rather than the contents (i.e. the folder's contents would be nested inside a directory named after the folder). In Xcode 16.4, when creating a folder reference, the copy resources build phase will copy the contents of the folder to the bundle at the root level (not nested), like the old behavior when creating a group rather than a folder reference. If you look at the raw project.pbxproj file, it shows up as a "File System Synchronized Root Group" rather than a "File Reference". Is there a way to get the old behavior, aside from hand-editing the project.pbxproj file?

Hi! A couple of months ago my app was archiving just fine. Since an xcode update the build fails. Here is what shows at the end of the log. Thank you in advance for any help! Run custom shell script 'Run Script' Failed to package [project folder] Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code

I upgraded IOS to 15.5 yesterday and then my xcode failed to preview today. The error message I got is: Communication with Apple failed Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/ Any one knows how to fix it?

Hello, I'm developing a macOS application that uses the Virtualization framework to run Linux virtual machines (specifically Ubuntu and Fedora) on Apple Silicon Macs. I've noticed that while the macOS host properly supports all trackpad gestures, the two-finger tap gesture for right-click does not work within the Linux guest. Only the primary click is recognized. This behavior is consistent across different Linux distributions and desktop environments (GNOME, KDE, etc.). I would like to confirm: Is the macOS Virtualization framework expected to support trackpad gestures such as two-finger tap for right-click within Linux guest VMs? If not currently supported, is there a known workaround to enable right-click functionality for the trackpad in Linux guests? (e.g., configuration changes in the VM, Linux kernel input modules, or framework-level adjustments.) Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Recently I upgraded to Sequoia only to find out that I can‘t run Xcode 15 anymore: I used to run it directly by opening up the app contents and run xcode binary from the macos folder. But this trick is not working anymore (xcode is killed before launch). I need xcode15 to continue working with a project that I have based in Unreal 5.3. I tried to migrate my project to xcode16 but I have thousands of compiler issues that will be hard to fix (with xcode15 everything was ok). does anyone know how to continue using xcode15 and not forcing us to waste time migraring to xcode16? thank you in advance

When we initiated the app transfer, we were eligible for app transfer and it was transferred as well. But App's bundle identifiers are not transferred yet which is blocking to push new updates. We contacted various time to apple, but we get similar responses. What may be the exact reason that is blocking to transfer the app bundle identifiers. However, app has already been transferred and active from recipient developer account.

Hi all, I’m running into an issue with my iOS + Apple Watch app project, and I could really use some advice. My WatchOS app requires an iOS companion for settings and configuration, so both apps need to be distributed together. Here’s how I structured my Xcode project: Main iOS App target WatchOS App target WatchOS Extension target However, I’m very confused about how these targets interact, and things are not working as expected. The problem: I can build and run the WatchOS app and its extension independently in the simulator by selecting their schemes. When I select the main iOS app scheme, I get an error about ITSWatchOnlyContainer in the Info.plist—even though there’s no Info tab for that target in Xcode. I’m able to distribute the WatchOS app by itself, and the extension as well. But I can’t distribute them bundled together as a single package, and I haven’t found any clear resources that explain how to fix this. This is my very first app, and it’s frustrating to get stuck just before the finish line! Project Structure / steps to reproduce Let’s say my project is called MyAppProject, with these targets: MyAppProject Main iOS App Embedded target: MyAppProject Watch App Bundle identifier: com.example.MyAppProject MyAppProject Watch App WKCompanionAppBundleIdentifier: com.example.MyAppProject “Requires iOS App”: YES MyAppProject Extension Bundle identifier: com.example.MyAppProject When running from the MyAppProject scheme, I get this error (even though I can’t see or edit the Info.plist in Xcode for this target): “Please try again later. This app has the ITSWatchOnlyContainer key set in its Info.plist, which identifies it as a shell app surrounding a Watch-only app; these are not installable.” As a result, I can’t distribute the app as a bundle. I’d appreciate help understanding: How should the Info.plist files be configured for each target? What do I do if the Info.plist path seems missing in the Xcode UI? Is there a “correct” way to structure an iOS + WatchOS app for bundled distribution?

My app works fine when I load it directly from Xcode to my phone via USB but once I load it to TestFlight the sounds no longer play when the app is not in focus or the phone is locked. I've tried every combination of tools available from the support group and from AI! And I'm out of ideas.

Hello, I’m hoping someone from the community can give me some guidance. I submitted payment for my Developer Program enrollment on May 19. I began following up with support on May 21 and stayed in contact until May 27, during which I received messages saying the order was under review and that I should not retry the payment until the review was complete. Since then, I haven’t received any updates, despite repeated follow-ups. I’ve asked about the status, whether the payment failed, and whether any corrections are needed, but I haven’t received any reply. At this point, I’m not sure: If anyone else has faced this kind of delay or silence? Whether I should just retry the payment? If the problem could be caused by using a company credit card under a different name than mine? Whether I will be contacted even if the order is canceled? The lack of communication is really blocking my work. I’d appreciate any advice from others who’ve gone through this or guidance from someone at Apple who can escalate the case. Thanks in advance.

When referencing WebKit’s function callAsyncJavaScript, any iOS app crashes immediately on startup when running in simulator. On device, it does not crash. The error message is: dyld[9892]: Symbol not found: _$sSo9WKWebViewC6WebKitE19callAsyncJavaScript_9arguments2inAF17completionHandlerySS_SDySSypGSo11WKFrameInfoCSgSo14WKContentWorldCys6ResultOyyps5Error_pGcSgtF Furthermore, this only happens for some simulators. With Xcode 16.3, it’s simulators 18.0 and prior. With Xcode 16.4 RC1 it includes simulators iOS 18.5 and 18.4 but works correctly on earlier versions of simulator. The reproduction path is easy. Example file attached. This used to work about 3 weeks or a month ago, which is perplexing. As a workaround I replaced the function with evaluateJavaScript which does not crash, but that is not the desired method to use for us. The attached file can reproduce it easily - just refernece this view from the default ContentView in a new project. TestWebView.swift

Hi everyone, I’m trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, but I’m stuck in a strange region issue. My Apple ID was originally created in the United States, and I’ve already: • Set my Apple ID region to the United States • Updated my payment and shipping address to a valid US billing address • Changed the App Store country/region on my iPhone to the United States • Signed in to the Apple Developer site after all of the above Despite all this, when I try to pay for the Developer Program, the enrollment page still shows the price in AED (UAE Dirhams) and lists the region as UAE. Apple Support couldn’t fix it and told me to try the forums. I’m worried that if I go ahead and pay, my developer account will be permanently tied to the UAE region, even though everything else is U.S.-based. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a hidden cache, setting, or workaround to get the Developer Program to recognize the U.S. region correctly? Any help would be massively appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue completing my Apple Developer Program enrollment. After submitting payment, I keep seeing the message: “Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now. Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process.” It’s been over 1 week, and this message hasn’t changed. I’ve already made the purchase twice. I’ve tried: • Logging out and back into my Apple ID • Using different browsers • Waiting patiently as instructed (well beyond 48 hours) Still, I can't proceed or access my developer account. This is blocking my app release, and I haven’t been able to get a clear response from the portal. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I escalate this to get it resolved? Thanks in advance for any help.

We're facing critical stability issues with a Xamarin-based iOS warehouse management app and need expert validation of our crash log analysis. We’re seeing recurring issues related to: Auto Layout Threading Violations Memory Pressure Terminations CPU Resource Usage Violations These are causing app crashes and performance degradation in production. We've attached representative crash logs to this post. Technical Validation Questions: Do the crash logs point to app-level defects (e.g., threading/memory management), or could user behavior be a contributing factor? Is ~1.8GB memory usage acceptable for enterprise apps on iOS, or does it breach platform best practices? Do the threading violations suggest a fundamental architectural or concurrency design flaw in the codebase? Would you classify these as enterprise-grade stability concerns requiring immediate architectural refactoring? Do the memory logs indicate potential leaks, or are the spikes consistent with expected usage patterns under load? Could resolving the threading violation eliminate or reduce the memory and CPU issues (i.e., a cascading failure)? Are these issues rooted in Xamarin framework limitations, or do they point more toward app-specific implementation problems? Documentation & UX Questions: What Apple-recommended solutions exist for these specific issues? (e.g., memory management, thread safety, layout handling) From your experience, how would these issues manifest for users? (e.g., crashes, slow performance, logout events, unresponsive UI, etc. JetsamEvent-2025-05-27-123434_REDACTED.ips ) WarehouseApp.iOS.cpu_resource-2025-05-30-142737_REDACTED.ips WarehouseApp.iOS-2025-05-27-105134_REDACTED.ips Any insights, analysis, or references would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance!

I made a box with MDLMesh.newBox(). I added normals. let mdlMesh = MDLMesh.newBox(withDimensions: SIMD3<Float>(1, 1, 1), segments: SIMD3<UInt32>(2, 2, 2), geometryType: MDLGeometryType.triangles, inwardNormals:false, allocator: allocator) mdlMesh.addNormals(withAttributeNamed: MDLVertexAttributeNormal, creaseThreshold: 0.25) After I convert to MTKMesh the normals are (0,0,0) for a group of vertices. I can only inspect the geometry after I convert to MTKMesh. Is there a way you can use Geometry Viewer on a MDLMesh?
