What happens when I delete an App ID in my developer account?
I clicked the delete button to an App ID in my developer account and I got a message saying "All certificates associated with the App ID will be deleted and any provisioning profiles associated with this App ID will be invalidated." Why would the entire provisioning profile be invalidated? What about the other App IDs in that provisioning profile? Does that mean I wouldn't be able to use the provisioning profile for those other App IDs at all?

Why does ShapeEdit use FileManager copyItem instead of setUbiquitous?
I have a question about code in the ShapeEdit sample from Apple.I their code, as shown below, why did they use FileManager's copyItem method instead of its setUbiquitous method? Didn't the documentation say explicitly to use setUbiquitous method? NSFileCoordinator().coordinate(with: [readIntent, writeIntent], queue: self.coordinationQueue) { error in if error != nil { return } do { try fileManager.copyItem(at: readIntent.url, to: writeIntent.url) try (writeIntent.url as NSURL).setResourceValue(true, forKey: URLResourceKey.hasHiddenExtensionKey) OperationQueue.main.addOperation { self.openDocumentAtURL(writeIntent.url) } } catch { fatalError("Unexpected error during trivial file operations: \(error)") } }

Contacts Framework CNFetchResult
Anyone ever use CNFetchResult successfully? I find nothing on the internet, on stackoverflow, and in Apple Developer Forums. The only thing I have found is Apple Documentation for it. It says CNFetchResult is a Generic Class. What exactly does that mean. I found an explanation that gives its definition, but the rest of the explanation is very long winded.

How do I set the default contacts container for my iOS app to the contacts container that is saved in iCloud?
I am writing an iOS app using Swift and Xcode 13.1. I am using the Contacts Framework, and I read that each app has a default contacts container, and the default container in an app can be different than the default container in another app, and there is not a default container for the entire device. What determines which is the default container for the app made by an Xcode project? I didn't set the default container for my app and somehow the contacts container for a Google account became the default contacts container for my app. How do I use code to set the default contacts container for my app? How do I find out which is the default container of Apple's Contacts app that comes with iOS? I would like to set my app's default contacts container to the same default container of Apple's Contacts app, if that is the contacts container that is saved on iCloud. If not, I would like to set my app's default contacts container to the contacts container that is saved in iCloud. I assume that only one contacts container is saved on iCloud.

How do I write code to run when the contact store was changed by another app, but not run when the contact store was changed by my app?
I noticed that when my app changes the contact store, the CNContactStoreDidChange notification fires in my app. How do I check if the notification fired because my app changed it. Is there a way to know which app made the change to the contact store. I need to know so I can write code to run only if the contact store was changed by another app instead of my app.

iOS Contacts Framework Change History Data using Swift and Xcode 13
On Apple's documentation of the Contacts Framework for iOS and Swift on their developer website, there is a section called Change History Data. It consists of a list of classes and one protocol. The protocol seems to be the most important item of the list - the CNChangeHistoryEventVisitor protocol. The protocol apparently has instance methods each of which use one of those classes listed. Where do I find documentation to use this protocol and these classes? Anyone ever use these before? Here's the list: class CNChangeHistoryAddContactEvent class CNChangeHistoryAddGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryAddMemberToGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryAddSubgroupToGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryDeleteContactEvent class CNChangeHistoryDeleteGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryDropEverythingEvent class CNChangeHistoryEvent class CNChangeHistoryFetchRequest class CNChangeHistoryRemoveMemberFromGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryRemoveSubgroupFromGroupEvent class CNChangeHistoryUpdateContactEvent class CNChangeHistoryUpdateGroupEvent protocol CNChangeHistoryEventVisitor

How to set Xcode to show pairings of beginning and ending of "clauses" determined by length from the left border of the code editor
How do I turn on that setting in Xcode that allows me to see how the beginning of a loop or if statement lines up with the ending of the loop as far as the number of tabs or the distance from the left border of the code editor. I have seen this on by default before. I don't know what it's called, so I don't know hot to search for it in Xcode help or on the internet or on forums.

What is dynamic shared object (DSO) handle that #dsohandle applies to in Swift?
I'm looking at this Swift documentation on Literal Expression, particularly the #dsohandle literal. It's the last line in the table. I can't find any documentation by Apple for "dynamic shared object (DSO) handle", as it says in the very right-most column. When I do a search for "dynamic shared object", I find information for technology by other companies. Anyone have anything you can tell me about this?

How to turn on feature in Xcode Editor
What is that feature called that shows a picture of the entire contents of the file on the right-hand side of the editor and shows it very small like it's zoomed out and shows the part of the file that is currently showing in the editor in a different shade in the picture? I am describing this to the best of my ability. I hope it comes across clearly.
