as in the above note, shorter videos, say, less than 1 hour playing time seem to export ok. this is just a time clip operation we are doing not a composition. but when we put videos longer than an hour and try to clip them to an hour, the export fails part way thru we can see the .progress property proceeding then we get the mysterious unknown error code: An unknown error occurred (-12551) as noted below in our console output apple any hints besides unknown? surely your code knows why it failed. why not tell us?! the "code = " listed below is the .status which shows as 4 waiting for trimmed movie file save 1 progress = 0.692948 2021-03-08 14:55:52.702278-0500 KargoCamera[1598:154227] Export failed: The operation could not be completed code = 4 2021-03-08 14:55:52.702412-0500 KargoCamera[1598:154227] Export recovidea: (null) 2021-03-08 14:55:52.702507-0500 KargoCamera[1598:154227] Export reason: An unknown error occurred (-12551)

previously (last year) I was able to generate provision profiles that matched to the *.maccatalyst.*com.* bundle id pattern. now when i try to generate a new mac provision profile because my prior profile expired, this site generates the profile for the iPad version of the bundle id pattern. e.g. without the .maccatalyst. portion of the bundle id. this is not usable for code signing of the mac app since the bundle id does not match. what is going on with this?

aside from the beta-test type of promo codes, is there any way to have "reduced price" promo codes that are used via the Redeem feature in the app store, for either full apps or in-app purchases (possibly subscriptions)?

is it possible for other iOS apps to hold onto microphone access when those apps are in the background? we see some cases where our app cannot get mic access (e.g. we can record video but we get no sound) and we think it might be another app such as Telegram "holding onto" the mic, because when we quit all other apps, our app works ok. this seems like an odd failure mode. any hints how to fix it?

We are using AVAssetWriter to write a movie file. All works fine, but when the app goes into the background and pauses operations, we would expect the writer to come back to life when you bring the app back into the foreground. However, it does not, it fails with this error code. Any hints, workarounds? Error Domain=AVFoundationErrorDomain Code=-11847 "Operation Interrupted" UserInfo={NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Stop other operations and try again., NSLocalizedDescription=Operation Interrupted, NSUnderlyingError=0x2820356b0 {Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-16121 "(null)"}}

Can anyone from apple provide the spline formulation that is used in the CIToneCurve filter?The documentation says that a spline is passed thru the points you give it, but thereare a lot of spline types in the world, and they all can yield different shapes thru the same set of points.

as i am typing in a Terminal window on Catalina (as all developers must do), i must be accidentally hitting some secret pattern of keys, because yellow man page windows keep popping up to do a "man" command on whatever word i am typing. how do we shut this terrible feature off?

i am using the tabular regression method of CreateML. i see where it prints a couple of metrics such as root mean square error on the validation data, but i dont see any way to export the raw fitted numbers (e.g. training prediction), or validation numbers (e.g. validation prediction), or out of sample "testing" numbers (from the testing data set). is this possible in CreateML directly? the reason this is necessary is that you sometimes want to plot actual versus predicted and compute other metrics for regressions.

hi all, trying to create an imessage extension example based upon the Hello World story board that shows up when you create the extension. if i add a button to the hello world story board, and hook up the button to a method, i dont seem to be getting any tap events on that button. i tried also creating a button manually with [UIButton buttonWithType] and adding a target to it...the buttons show up, but they don't take tap events. i used the UI examiner in xcode, and touch events seem to be enabled on all views in the imsg extension view stack. i do see a strange message in the xcode console which i havent seen before: [PPT] Error creating the CFMessagePort needed to communicate with PPT. any ideas? PS: this is on simulator. i tried on device, same behavior. no touch events.
