Cannot close my own threads
Since recently, when I try to close a thread I created on an answer of mine, I get the following error: Trying later, next day, does not solve it. In the list of all threads, the post is not marked as answered. But if I look via Chrome or plain Safari, I see the answer itself is marked as correct: Which is not the case when opening in Safari Technology Preview (Release 233) where the same answer is still to be accepted:

Several tags do not open anymore on the forum (today 1/29/2022)
Since a few hours, Sat 1/29/2022, several pages of the forum do not open, such as: https://developer.apple.com/forums/ https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/ios all showing the same messages: Other tags open without problem. And those open with a payload: https://developer.apple.com/forums/?page=1&sortBy=lastUpdated https://developer.apple.com/forums/search/?q=column&page=1&sortBy=lastUpdated https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/ios/?page=2 works, but page=1 doesn't Does anyone experience the same errors ? Conf: MacOS 12.2 (21D49) Safari Technology Preview Release 139 (Safari 15.4, WebKit 17613.1.14.41.3) But the pages open correctly on Firefox, Chrome. Does not open either on Safari Version 15.3 (17612.4.9.1.5) So issue is apparently on Safari probably not MacOS 12.2 (21D49) , nor on server side.

What is this view that appears floating over the tableView ?
I have a tableView inside a UIView in a VC. This VC is in a navigation view. It is a UIViewController, not a UITableViewController. The VC set up is this one: The issue: When I run app, there is a bar (full width, about 25 pixels high) appearing over the tableView at the bottom, hiding partially a cell (we see the (i) button nearly completely hidden). When scrolling tableView, this bar does not move and hides other cell. I looked at the view in debugger (I edited the content of cells): and found that the bar which is hiding comes from navigation controller: So 2 questions: what is this view ? How to avoid it coming over the table view ? I have a solution by replacing upperView by a header in tableView, but I would like to understand what goes on here.

Contribution to Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips
Hi Quinn, if I may add a point 10 to your (very meaningful) list: when pasting images, think of reducing the size (can edit simply the image ref by dividing a dimension by 2) to avoid huge images that clutter the screen. When you get an answer, please indicate if that solved the issue, if not explain what is not working. And don't forget to close the thread by marking the correct answer once you got it.

New 'Same Here' button on the forum
I've noticed there is a new 'Same Here' button showing on any post (except your own posts). I first thought it was a link to a similar question… Specially when the button just says 'Same here' without any badge value. But no, it is just similar to a like… I guess the goal is to avoid and speed up instead of posting a reply or a comment 'Same here'. Unfortunately, it is not possible to undo and no way to know who posted. As your own posts do not show the button, does it mean you cannot know how many share the same issue than the one you posted ? If so, that's bizarre. Hope it will show the counter at least when it is non zero. Let me see how many 'Same here' on this post… .

A new message 'Answered by forumsContributor in' with a link to nowhere
I see this message for the first time: It is inserted in the OP (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/757852) but the link leads to nowhere (just the general page of the forum). In … what ?!? So I wonder what is the meaning of the message, its intent and use ? Or is it just a forum bug ? PS: surprisingly, this post appears in Forums general page (https://developer.apple.com/forums/latest), but not in forums feedback (https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/forums-feedback) PS2: it appears, but after all the pinned messages which are older. Really confusing… I posted a bug report on this: Jun 23, 2024 at 9:29 PM – FB14024970

iTunes Store is stuttering, repeating the same (erroneous) message every 5 minutes…
Since 2 hours (1:20 GMT July 18), I keep receiving the exact same message from iTunesStore every 5 minutes (30 received so far, with metronome regularity): Your banking information was accepted Thank you for providing the requested details for xxxxxx associated with your banking update in App Store Connect. Any payments may take up to 2 payment cycles to send. If you have any questions, contact us at http://developer.apple.com/contact/. I did not update any information since at least 6 weeks. I contacted support, it seems to be widespread problem. I filed a bug report: Jul 18, 2024 at 5:51 PM – FB14377820

Typographic question for space character
In this UIKit app, I have to display numbers (from 1 to 100), in a label., on several lines, with 8 numbers on each line. Order is computed by the app for a specific purpose. The numbers are separated by space. Label font is Helvetica Neue 15.0. I want to get them aligned vertically. So, I have a padding so that they are all the same length of 4. Problem: the space have smaller width (half in fact) than digits, so alignment is disrupted: Of course, I can use fixed width fonts (like Menlo), but I've not found one that fits (the zero is barred, which is not looking great in the app). I have tried using class func monospacedDigitSystemFont( ofSize fontSize: CGFloat, weight: UIFont.Weight ) -> UIFont and apply to label.text. To no avail as it modifies only digits, not space char. I have found a workaround, padding with 2 spaces instead of one, but is there another solution ? So I am looking for a space character that would have the same width as a digit. There existe thin space (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_character) but not larger space. Does it exist ?

Swift 6 conversion for IBOutlet
I'm struggling to convert Swift 5 to Swift 6. As advised in doc, I first turned strict concurrency ON. I got no error. Then, selected swift6… and problems pop up. I have a UIViewController with IBOutlets: eg a TextField. computed var eg duree func using UNNotification: func userNotificationCenter I get the following error in the declaration line of the func userNotificationCenter: Main actor-isolated instance method 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:withCompletionHandler:)' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated requirement from protocol 'UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate' So, I declared the func as non isolated. This func calls another func func2, which I had also to declare non isolated. Then I get error on the computed var used in func2 Main actor-isolated property 'duree' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I declared duree as nonsilated(unsafe). Now comes the tricky part. The computed var references the IBOutlet dureeField if dureeField.text == "X" leading to the error Main actor-isolated property 'dureeField' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context So I finally declared the class as mainActor and the textField as nonisolated @IBOutlet nonisolated(unsafe) weak var dureeField : UITextField! That silences the error (but declaring unsafe means I get no extra robustness with swift6) just to create a new one when calling dureeField.text: Main actor-isolated property 'text' can not be referenced from a nonisolated context Question: how to address properties inside IBOutlets ? I do not see how to declare them non isolated and having to do it on each property of each IBOutlet would be impracticable. The following did work, but will make code very verbose: if MainActor.assumeIsolated({dureeField.text == "X"}) { So I must be missing something.

Crash in Swift 6 when using UNUserNotification
After porting code to Swift 6 (Xcode 16.4), I get a consistent crash (on simulator) when using UNUserNotificationServiceConnection It seems (searching on the web) that others have met the same issue. Is it a known Swift6 bug ? Or am I misusing UNUserNotification ? I do not have the crash when compiling on Xcode 26 ß5, which hints at an issue in Xcode 16.4. Crash log: Thread 10 Queue : com.apple.usernotifications.UNUserNotificationServiceConnection.call-out (serial) As far as I can tell, it seems error is when calling nonisolated func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) I had to declare non isolated to solve a compiler error. Main actor-isolated instance method 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:withCompletionHandler:)' cannot be used to satisfy nonisolated requirement from protocol 'UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate' I was advised to: Add 'nonisolated' to 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:withCompletionHandler:)' to make this instance method not isolated to the actor I filed a bug report: Aug 10, 2025 at 2:43 PM – FB19519575
