I have been trying for 24 hours to upload app, and first time this has happened in 8 years and 100+ uploads. Please help. Validate App and Upload both hang indefinitely at "Preparing" in Xcode Organizer. No error is ever returned — the progress bar freezes and the operation never completes or times out. Transporter 1.4.5 fails identically. Key detail: archive 2.4.3 (build 123), which Apple accepted and processed on Sept 10, 2026, now hangs the same way when validated. Same machine, same Xcode, same Apple ID. This rules out the archive, its signature, and its provisioning profile. Already ruled out: two independent networks (home Wi-Fi and iPhone cellular hotspot); the archive itself (known-good build 123 fails identically); Xcode install (27.0 / 27A266a, xcode-select verified correct); Apple ID session (signed out and back in three times); full reboot. macOS 27.0 (26A428) on MacBookPro18,4. Last successful upload Sept 10, 2026. 100+ prior archives uploaded without incident over several years. macOS has updated twice since Sept 10. Separately: Transporter 1.4.5 crashes on macOS 27.0 with an unhandled exception in TransporterKit while drawing its activity queue (EXC_BREAKPOINT via +[NSApplication _crashOnException:]).

We submitted an app update to App Store Connect and it finished processing. We have since discovered and fixed an additional bug, and will need to resubmit the binary. The processed version wasn't sent it for review (only processed), so need to know if we can still keep both the same version and build number?

I enrolled as an individual developer and applied to the Small Business program after Tax and Banking uploads were complete. It's been over a month and I have heard nothing after their initial email acknowledging my application. Is this normal to take so long? I contacted the Developer Account folks, but they say they can't help me as they're in a separate department. 15% discount is substantial for a small developer!

I have 2 apps on the App Store since 2009, and today I can no longer generate a Promo Code. I haven't generated a code for several months so the current app version still has 100 remaining. Any ideas, is it down?

I recently authorized my 10 year old app for use on Silicon Macs, to mimic an iPad. Vendors are reporting that my app downloaded via an iOS promo code does not allow them to also download my app from the MAC App Store. Even though they have the iOS app on their iPhone and iPad, the MAC App Store is asking them to pay. How can I create a promo code for the MAC App Store? My app is a Universal iOS app, and I only want it to work with Silicon Macs. I need to allow reviewers to download my app for free, as it's expensive, $29.99. Thank you.

I currently have an app on the App Store which has functions that work in portrait and other functions that work only in landscape mode. It autorotates much like camera does. I built it to test on Xcode 12 beta 3 on my Mac, but cannot see a way to rotate it to test in landscape mode. There are no visible buttons, and Ctrl-arrow does not rotate it like it does in Simulator. Any ideas?
