Noticing a few issues with Screen Savers in macOS Tahoe developer beta 1 : The command open x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.ScreenSaver-Settings.extension no longer works to open the Screen Savers preference pane. The reason? There is no longer a Screen Saver preference pane - it still exists, but it's now a Modal dialog (that can not be resized) that is opened from within the Wallpaper preference pane, by clicking a button. Something funny is happening with legacyScreensaver - I think that ScreenSaverView.Init(frame:isPreview) may be passing wrong values, e.g. the isPreview boolean is false in Preview mode? I've submitted Feedback # FB17895600 about some of these, and will report back more as I figure things out. Please feel free to add to this thread, thanks!

My team has developed an app with a Matter commissioner feature (for own ecosystem) using the Matter framework on the MatterSupport extension. Recently, we've noticed that commissioning Matter devices with the MatterSupport extension has become very unstable. Occasionally, the HomeUIService stops the flow after commissioning to the first fabric successfully, displaying the error: "Failed to perform Matter device setup: Error Domain=HMErrorDomain Code=2." (normally, it should send open commissioning window to the device and then add the device to the 2nd fabric). The issue is never seen before until recently few weeks and there is no code changes in the app. We are suspected that there is some data that fail to download from the icloud or apple account that cause this problem. For evaluation, we tried removing the HomeSupport extension and run the Matter framework directly in developer mode, this issue disappears, and commissioning works without any problems.

We have had a small number of users of our mac app complaining that the app suddenly can't detect their subscription or previous purchase history. These users are not new, and have been using the app successfully for some time. In the app we do this using the following (very standard) code at app startup: let result: VerificationResult<AppTransaction> = try await AppTransaction.shared For those users experiencing the failure, the result is coming back as unverified. So far we've been unable to find the cause or a solution, but it seems to have become worse with the release of macOS 15.4. We've tried resetting, rebooting and reinstalling the app. It's worth adding the (probably obvious) that it's impossible to test or fault-find with this, because we can't replicate the issue in a development environment. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Unexpected behavior encountered when scanning NFC tags. Imagine a link shortener web service where users can create lots of different URLs that are hosted on the same domain eg, https://short.com/unique-path The service has optional App Clip capability -- users can select any of their links and have the service create an App Clip for the selected link(s). Users can encode their URLs into NFC tags and have their customers scan NFC tags. Let's take just two URLs for example: https://short.com/foo https://short.com/bar The /foo link does have an App Clip associated with it while /bar does not have it. Each link has been encoded into appropriate NFC tag. Expected behavior when scanning from an iPhone: /foo -- shows an App Clip popup. /bar -- shows a "Open in Safari" default notification. What's actually happening /foo -- opens App Clip poput with correct metadata (title, subtitle, image) which is totally expected behavior. /bar (the one that doesn't have app clip associated with it) -- opens an App-Clip-like popup with the following error: CPSErrorDomainError 2 (see attachment below) So for some reason when someone scans an NFC tag with a URL that is not an App Clip and never has been -- it always shows that error regardless whether the URL exists or does not exist. I've tried few different/random URLs (which don't have an App Clip associated with it) and all of them show the same error. Additional details: All links use the same domain and URL format: domain.com/path where path is a short string of random a-Z characters. All App Clips are created at the same iOS app. AASA is good: Cache and Debug -- both green. This issue has happened to lots of users on lots of different iPhones and iOS'. Since the issue's been happening to lots of different users on different iPhone(s)/iOS' no sysdiagnose is attached. Actually it works the same on every device/iOS we've tried. Before submitting the issue, I've found few other developers reporting the same issue. What's interesting though is none of the links I've went through comes with a definite answer and it seems like this issue just randomly comes and goes without any specific changes on the server and/or iOS app. Dropping the links of similar issues below. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/671433 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/665969 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/775316 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/764545

I'm using TestFlight to test an app with payment/subscription functionality. I created sandbox accounts in AppStore Connect accordingly to be able to test the subscriptions. I'm logged in with the sandbox account. When I try to subscribe in the App the wrong account (this is my actual real AppleID) is used for the subscription although it is recognized that this is just a sandbox subscription. I tried: logging off/on into the sandbox account creating a totally new sandbox account trying to trigger the payment with no logged in sandbox account The result is always: in the payment popup it is stated that the purchase account will be my original AppleID and not a sandbox account. How can I switch the accounts? Is this a bug at Apple's side somehow?

I'm working on a project that says it's to be based on the QNE2TransparentProxyMac sample code but don't have the original sample code. Can I get a pointer to the sample code and documentation please? Google search didn't find it for some reason. Thanks! Peter

Hello everyone, I have been working on a macOS app that utilizes push notifications for the past year. Up until recently, everything was functioning correctly. However, now I'm experiencing issues where push notifications are either not being delivered at all or are experiencing significant delays, sometimes up to 10 minutes. Setting the priority header to 10 hasn't made any difference. I am currently using development push notifications, but the issue persists when switching to the production environment. I'm curious if anyone else has encountered similar problems. When checking the push console, it frequently reports that the device is offline, even though it's actually online ("discarded as device was offline"). Occasionally, notifications are delivered promptly, but this is becoming increasingly infrequent. This issue has been consistently reported by our testers, particularly after they updated to macOS Sonoma. Any insights or assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Our app has a network extension (as I've mentioned lots 😄). We do an upgrade by downloading the new package, stopping & removing all of our components except for the network extension, and then installing the new package, which then loads a LaunchAgent causing the containing app to run. (The only difference between a new install and upgrade is the old extension is left running, but not having anything to tell it what to do, just logs and continues.) On some (but not all) upgrades... nothing ends up able to communicate via XPC with the Network Extension. My simplest cli program to talk to it gets Could not create proxy: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named blah was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 3 - No such process." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named bla was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 3 - No such process.} Could not communicate with blah Restarting the extension by doing a kill -9 doesn't fix it; neither does restarting the control daemon. The only solution we've come across so far is rebooting. I filed FB11086599 about this, but has anyone thoughts about this?

Not quite but maybe sorta related to the errOSAInternalTableOverflow problem I asked about in a different thread, this one deals with crashes our app gets (and much more frequently lately after recent OS updates (15.7.3) are OK'd by our IT department). Our app can run multiple jobs concurrently, each in their own NSOperation. Each op creates its own SBApplication instance that controls unique instances of InDesignServer. What I'm seeing recently is lots of crashes happening while multiple ops are calling into ScriptingBridge. Shown at the bottom is one of the stack crawls from one of the threads. I've trimmed all but the last of our code. Other threads have a similar stack crawl. In searching for answers, Google's AI overview mentions "If you must use multiple threads, ensure that each thread creates its own SBApplication instance…" Which is what we do. No thread can reach another thread's SBApplication instance. Is that statement a lie? Do I need to lock around every ScriptingBridge call (which is going to severely slow things down)? 0 AE 0x1a7dba8d4 0x1a7d80000 + 239828 1 AE 0x1a7d826d8 AEProcessMessage + 3496 2 AE 0x1a7d8f210 0x1a7d80000 + 61968 3 AE 0x1a7d91978 0x1a7d80000 + 72056 4 AE 0x1a7d91764 0x1a7d80000 + 71524 5 CoreFoundation 0x1a0396a64 __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__ + 28 6 CoreFoundation 0x1a03969f8 __CFRunLoopDoSource0 + 172 7 CoreFoundation 0x1a0396764 __CFRunLoopDoSources0 + 232 8 CoreFoundation 0x1a03953b8 __CFRunLoopRun + 840 9 CoreFoundation 0x1a03949e8 CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 572 10 AE 0x1a7dbc108 0x1a7d80000 + 246024 11 AE 0x1a7d988fc AESendMessage + 4724 12 ScriptingBridge 0x1ecb652ac -[SBAppContext sendEvent:error:] + 80 13 ScriptingBridge 0x1ecb5eb4c -[SBObject sendEvent:id:keys:values:count:] + 216 14 ScriptingBridge 0x1ecb6890c -[SBCommandThunk invoke:] + 376 15 CoreFoundation 0x1a037594c ___forwarding___ + 956 16 CoreFoundation 0x1a03754d0 _CF_forwarding_prep_0 + 96 17 RRD 0x1027fca18 -[AppleScriptHelper runAppleScript:withSubstitutionValues:usingSBApp:] + 1036

I have simple non-consumable IAPs set up for an app on macOS. Testing in development with a local .storekit configuration file, everything works as expected. Testing in development with a remote Sandbox, everything also seems to work fine. Product names and prices fetch correctly, I am able to make purchases with a Sandbox account (both US and UK). Once I upload a build into TestFlight, IAPs no longer work. The tester would download the Beta app from TestFlight. They open a license manager and can see all the product names, descriptions and prices are pulled from Apple servers correctly (with the correct local currency as well!). So far so good. When trying to purchase any of the IAP, the following error appears: This is TestFlight so testers are using their real Apple ID. My understanding is that they should continue using their production credentials and a TestFlight Sandbox would be configured behind the scenes automatically. This error always says the users cannot purchase from a US store and must switch to [whatever user’s actual store location is] store. For example, my account is based in the UK, has got a UK billing address and a UK payment method, and the error tells me to switch to the UK store. People in Canada get a similar error - you must switch from the US store to Canadian. The error makes no sense, the account is already in the desired country. Clicking on the “Change Store” button opens the App Store app and displays another error: “Cannot Connect to App Store”. Clicking Retry just results in this errors showing again and again. Clicking OK takes us back to the failed IAP purchase and the final error message appears: “Purchase Error - Unable to Complete Request”. Things I’ve done / checked: IAPs are configured in App Store Connect and available for all regions prices are set for all regions in App Store Connect IAP name and description localisation in English (UK) IAP status is Ready to Submit, I don’t think I can go past that unless I make a production release (which I can’t until we fix the problem) IAP capabilities added in xcode the problem is not account, machine, or location dependent - every beta tester testing my app on TestFlight has the same issue, they each use a different account and have accounts in different countries double checked the App Store account location in the App Store settings - it is definitely matching the store this error is asking to switch to application exits at startup with error 173 if app receipt cannot be found - this one was suggested by the review team, I could not really find any documentation for it review team also suggested I should add com.apple.security.network.client to enable IAP connectivity. I did add that to one of the builds and it did not help. I am not really convinced this is necessary Any suggestions on what to check and what to try? I have run out of ideas.

I have a command line utility I wrote that has been working great up until Sequoia that reads the macro keys from a Logitech G600 gaming mouse and turns it in to custom commands. it was using the following code, checking if usage was 0x80: IOHIDManagerRegisterInputValueCallback( g600HIDManager, { _, returnResult, callbackSender, valueRef in let elem = IOHIDValueGetElement(valueRef) let usage = IOHIDElementGetUsage(elem) let pressed = IOHIDValueGetIntegerValue(valueRef) Now i'm having issues with opening the HID manager: IOHIDManagerOpen(g600HIDManager, IOOptionBits.zero) After changing the system security from permissive to restrictive, It's giving the error code 0xE00002E2, or no permission. I can't easily add the sandbox entitlements as this is just a simple CLI application, not a bundled app, and even after setting back to csrutil disable, i'm still getting this error. So now i'm trying to turn it in to a bundled app and use CoreHID instead. Unfortunately I'm not getting any notifications that aren't the mouse itself. From the above code that was working before, i was looking for usage values of 0x80. I'm guessing that directly corresponds to the usage 0x80 in the HID descriptor. I am receiving notifications via await deviceClient!.monitorNotifications(reportIDsToMonitor: [] , elementsToMonitor: [] ) which should pick up everything for the device. I know the usage i'm looking for is referenced in the device client because it's in the deviceClient.elements collection. So is there something in CoreHID that specifically blocks Vendor specified Usage pages from being picked up by notifications? I've also tried just requesting the elements using let elemToMon = await deviceClient?.elements.filter({ ele in return ele.usage.page == 0xFF80 && ele.usage.usage == 0x80 }) let request = HIDDeviceClient.RequestElementUpdate(elements: elemToMon!) let results = await deviceClient!.updateElements([request]) but that call errors (still trying to figure out exactly how it errors). Any help would be appreciated, either in figuring out why i'm not getting the HID reports in question using CoreHID, or even what has changed that is causing me to not be able to use IOKit.hid anymore. Thanks in advance!

Both have the same app group capability with the same group name group.com.myteam.dns-proxy-test. The info.plist from the network extension look like this(I didn't really modify it from the default template created by xcode) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>NetworkExtension</key> <dict> <key>NEMachServiceName</key> <string>$(TeamIdentifierPrefix)com.example.app-group.MySystemExtension</string> <key>NEProviderClasses</key> <dict> <key>com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).DNSProxyProvider</string> </dict> </dict> </dict> </plist> In the logs I do see DNS Proxy enabled successfully and also I see: NESMDNSProxySession[Primary Tunnel:my DNS proxy:<...>:(null)] starting with configuration: { name = my DNS proxy identifier = <..> applicationName = dns-proxy-tests application = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests grade = 1 dnsProxy = { enabled = YES protocol = { type = dnsProxy identifier = <...> identityDataImported = NO disconnectOnSleep = NO disconnectOnIdle = NO disconnectOnIdleTimeout = 0 disconnectOnWake = NO disconnectOnWakeTimeout = 0 disconnectOnUserSwitch = NO disconnectOnLogout = NO includeAllNetworks = NO excludeLocalNetworks = NO excludeCellularServices = YES excludeAPNs = YES excludeDeviceCommunication = YES enforceRoutes = NO pluginType = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests providerBundleIdentifier = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne designatedRequirement = identifier "com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne" <...> /* exists */ } } } But then I see: Checking for com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne - com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy But then finally Found 0 registrations for com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne (com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy) So I think that last log probably indicates the problem.

Hello! https://github.com/apple/live-caller-id-lookup-example/blob/main/Sources/PIRService/PIRService.docc/DataFormat.md The link above shows the data format that the user who gets a call, can get. I wonder if it is also possible to add other fields, for example: "summary". I am currently in the design-phase of an app that aims to present what the last call between the two parties was about, and that information can be gotten from an API that I will build according to Apple's principles that is comaptible with the Live Caller ID Lookup protocol. Therefore adding a field that will present a short summary of the last call will be very handy. Is that possible?

As I've mentioned before our app uses PTT Framework to record and send audio messages. In one of supported by app mode we are using WebRTC.org library for that purpose. Internally WebRTC.org library uses Voice-Processing I/O Unit (kAudioUnitSubType_VoiceProcessingIO subtype) to retrieve audio from mic. According to https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avfaudio/avaudiosession/mode-swift.struct/voicechat using Voice-Processing I/O Unit leads to implicit enabling .voiceChat AVAudioSession mode (i.e. it looks like it's not possible to use Voice-Processing I/O Unit without .voiceChat mode). And problem is following: when user starts outgoing PTT, PTT Framework plays audio notification, but in case of enabled .voiceChat mode that sound is playing distorted or not playing at all. Questions: Is it known issue? Is there any way to workaround it?

Aloha. Opening and closing VPN tunnels results in as many utun interfaces as the amount of times the tunnel has been opened. These interfaces stay present and seem to be removed only upon system reboot. We are using the NetworkExtension as a SystemExtension on macOS to create the virtual interfaces. Is this the normal behaviour. Has anybody else experienced this? utun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1380 inet6 fe80::8038:c353:17cd:c422%utun0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xf nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD> utun1: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 2000 inet6 fe80::cfb6:1324:d7e9:5d5%utun1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x10 nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD> utun2: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun3: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun4: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun5: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun6: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun7: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM> utun8: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1300 options=6463<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,CHANNEL_IO,PARTIAL_CSUM,ZEROINVERT_CSUM>

PDFKit PDFPage.characterBounds(at: Int) is returning incorrect coordinates with iOS 18 beta 4 and later / Xcode 16 beta 4. It worked fine in iOS 17 and earlier (after showing the same issue during the early iOS 17 beta cycle) It breaks critical functionality that my app relies on. I have filed feedback (FB14843671). So far no changes in the latest betas. iOS release date is approaching fast! Anybody having the same issue? Any workaround available?

My MacBook Pro M5 running MacOS Tahoe 26.3 beta fails to detect two identical ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM monitors simultaneously. Only one display is recognized at a time. One potential root cause might be that both monitors report identical binary EDID serial numbers (0x01010101), and the MacBook Pro M5 appears to use this value exclusively for display identity rather than combining it with other more detailed information (e.g., port, or alphanumeric serial number). I've verified that the monitor EDID binary serial numbers are in fact identical -- however the alphanumerical serial numbers are not identical. NOTE: This behavior is specific to the MacBook Pro M5 — when connecting both monitors via usb-c to a Mac Mini M4 Pro running the same MacOS Tahoe 26.3 beta, the monitors work fine. The OS detects both and assigns different names to them (PG32UCDM (1) and PG32UCDM (2)). NOTE: I could be wrong about this root cause, I don't have a way to disprove it, though the fact the monitors work fine on a Mac Mini is suspicious. What I have tried: Connecting the two monitors using different monitor ports (one on DisplayPort, another on HDMI, etc.), and different MacBook ports (one on HDMI, another on USB-C, etc.) Bumping down the resolution on the monitors to "1920x1080 (low resolution)" and 30Hz to rule out bandwidth issues. Connecting one, or both, monitors to CalDigit TS5 Plus dock. Neither alternate configuration yields the device recognizing both screens. Using BetterDisplay to import a manually-edited EDID for the screen, with a different binary EDID value, manufacturer name, etc. I've also verified that if I plug in my Apple Studio Display as one of the monitors, then the MacBook recognizes both one of the PG32UCDM monitors and the Studio Display at the same time. The issue seems to occur only when both monitors plugged into it are the same PG32UCDM model. When I have both monitors plugged into my MacBook, each time I disconnect the cable to whichever monitor is currently recognized, it immediately recognizes the other monitor. Plugging the cable for the disconnected monitor back in has no effect. I'm at a loss. Has anyone run into this issue and found a successful workaround that is not one of the approaches I've described above?

Since the iOS 18 and Xcode 16, I've been getting some really strange SwiftData errors when passing @Model classes around. The error I'm seeing is the following: SwiftData/BackingData.swift:409: Fatal error: This model instance was destroyed by calling ModelContext.reset and is no longer usable. PersistentIdentifier(id: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifier.ID(url: x-coredata://34EE9059-A7B5-4484-96A0-D10786AC9FB0/TestApp/p2), implementation: SwiftData.PersistentIdentifierImplementation) The same issue also happens when I try to retrieve a model from the ModelContext using its PersistentIdentifier and try to do anything with it. I have no idea what could be causing this. I'm guessing this is just a bug in the iOS 18 Beta, since I couldn't find a single discussion about this on Google, I figured I'd mention it. if someone has a workaround or something, that would be much appreciated.

We have an application which is written in Swift, which activates Transparent Proxy network extension. Our Transparent Proxy module is a system extension, which is exposing an app proxy provider interface (We are using NETransparentProxyProvider class and in extension’s Info.plist we use com.apple.networkextension.app-proxy key.) We are using JAMF MDM profile for installing our transparent proxy in customer environment. We are using VPN payload(https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn) for this network system extension. This payload does not have any field for order. As per https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn/transparentproxy-data.dictionary documentation there is another payload for TransparentProxy and we could create a Transparent Proxy profile using iMazingProfile Editor. Noticed that, if we add the Order attribute to the VPN/TransparentProxy payload, while installing the extension, the save to preferences fails with "Error in saving TP configuration in updateOnDemandRule permission denied" error. Can we use this Order field to ordering the installed Transparent Proxy extension in a machine? Customer devices will likely have other Transparent Proxy network extensions as well. We want to allow the Customer to control the order in which each Transparent Proxy network extension receives the network traffic. How can we set the order of the Transparent proxy extension that can be deployed using MDM profile with VPN/TransparentProxy payload? Attached the TransparentProxy payload profile for the reference.
