It's been known for at least 4 months that there is no email notification for answers to own posts, like an Apple engineer confirmed here https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/656787?login=true
Why does it take so long to fix a basic issue like this? How long will we have to check daily for new answers without being able to count on a simple notification?

After building the Product Archive, the Organizer window opens, I click Distribute App. Next. Next. Next. Next. Crash. The crash happens before I'm able to export anything, so I cannot even use the Application Loader. The last message above the indeterminate progress indicator I can read before it crashes is "Packaging MyApp ...".
It would be really nice if an Apple engineer could help sort this out, because I already contacted the App Store Connect support and they told me that the only way I can get help is by writing on this forum, searching the Xcode documentation, or using one of the 2 free TSIs I get each year (which I have already used).
Stacktrace (I tried to paste the whole crash report, but I get an error that the message is too long and that I should click on the icon to attach a file instead, but I don't see such an icon):

Can I delete it? Why is it still there? I already created a feedback for this in June but got no response.
It seems that timeControlStatus == .paused and rate == 0 when the video is being played fast forward or backward. Is this really how it's supposed to be? If yes, is there a way of knowing if the video is effectively paused?
I create a URL bookmark with `URL.bookmarkData(options: [], includingResourceValuesForKeys: [.localizedNameKey])` and resolve it with `NSURL(resolvingBookmarkData: bookmarkData, options: [], relativeTo: nil, bookmarkDataIsStale: nil) as URL`. This works fine within my main app, but when sharing the bookmarkData via an App Group with my Share Extension, it gives the error "The file couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it.". Is there any way I can do this?
My Mac app uses many NSTextViews just fine for printing a long string, but trying to do the same on iOS with many UITextViews and associated UIViewPrintFormatters just causes a crash.*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[__NSArrayM objectAtIndex:]: index 1 beyond bounds [0 .. 0]'

)Here's the code:class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
let printController = UIPrintInteractionController.shared
let printPageRenderer = PrintPageRenderer()
printController.printPageRenderer = printPageRenderer
printController.present(animated: true)
}
}
class PrintPageRenderer: UIPrintPageRenderer {
let layoutManager = NSLayoutManager()
let textStorage = NSTextStorage(string: "fhdjksalhfj dskla fjf")
var textViews = [UITextView]()
override func prepare(forDrawingPages range: NSRange) {

for (i, textView) in textViews.enumerated() {
let printFormatter = textView.viewPrintFormatter()
addPrintFormatter(printFormatter, startingAtPageAt: i)

override var numberOfPages: Int {
textStorage.addLayoutManager(layoutManager)
let size = CGFloat(50)
for _ in 0..<2 {
let textContainer = NSTextContainer(size: CGSize(width: size, height: size))
layoutManager.addTextContainer(textContainer)
let textView = UITextView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: size, height: size), textContainer: textContainer)

}My goal is printing a document from an attributed string and showing a custom header and footer on each page.
I can run my app on my MacBook Pro running macOS 10.14.6, but an App Store user reached out to report that it crashes immediately when launching it. When that user runs it from the Terminal, it prints out this:Illegal instruction: 4
