Paid Apps Agreement Renewed, But In-App Purchases Still Unavailable
Hello, I forgot to renew my Paid Apps Agreement when the previous one expired. As a result, all of my In-App Purchases and subscriptions became unavailable. I have now signed the new agreement, and it appears as active in App Store Connect. However, my In-App Purchases are still unavailable and purchases cannot be completed in my apps. Is there a propagation delay after signing the agreement before In-App Purchases become available again? Does Apple need to perform any manual action on their side after the agreement is renewed? If there is a delay, how long did it take in your experience? My products are still marked as "Ready for Sale" and everything else appears to be configured correctly. This issue is currently affecting live apps and preventing customers from making purchases, so I'm trying to understand whether I should simply wait or contact Apple Support. Thanks for any insights.

[Beta OS 27] DDM User Channel returning Device Push Token
I am currently working on mdm.push-token status item subscription via the DDM User Channel while testing on Beta OS 27. I have observed that the User Channel subscription consistently returns the device's push token rather than a unique user-specific push token. This behaviour is persistent across both macOS and Shared iPad environments. Before I conclude that this is a bug, I would like to clarify if this is the expected behaviour for the DDM User Channel. If so, could anyone provide guidance on the correct or alternative method to retrieve a unique, user-specific push token within the DDM framework to ensure proper notification routing? I have submitted a detailed report with a sys diagnose log via the Feedback Assistant (FB ID:FB23214856). Any insights or documentation references would be greatly appreciated.

Requirement for Managed Apple IDs
We would like to enforce the use of Managed Apple IDs on company-owned devices. At the same time, users should be able to install free applications on their own without requiring administrators to deploy every app through MDM, as this creates additional administrative overhead. Why is this required? The primary objective is to ensure that company-owned devices are used only with corporate-managed accounts and to prevent corporate data from being synced, backed up, or transferred to employees' personal iCloud accounts. This helps protect organizational data and reduces the risk of company information remaining accessible after an employee leaves the organization or stops using the device. We are looking for a solution that enforces Managed Apple ID usage while still allowing users the flexibility to install free apps independently.

Logon to Mac OS with Dev Account which is Account Holder
I'm a solo developer and owner of my companies account. I'm trying to sign on to my Mac so I can use my developer account to get a certificate for wallet use and to select the correct developer account for applications in Xcode. I'm am brand new to all this so apologize if I'm missing the simple solution. I'm not able to edit the roles of my developer account but being an Admin I should already have all the necessary access...I think. I get an error when trying to logon as a work account: Searching for the long error doesn't provide a solution in the forum or through search engines. AI says to check the roles.

Apple Developer Program Enrollment Still Processing – No Updates After Several Days
Hello everyone, I’m posting here because I’m waiting for an update regarding my Apple Developer Program enrollment. My enrollment currently shows: “Your enrollment is being processed.” My Enrollment ID is: 35QVL65M9K I submitted my enrollment several days ago and I haven’t received any email updates or requests for additional information yet. I wanted to ask if anyone from Apple Support or a community admin could please check my case status, or let me know if anything else is needed from my side to continue the review. If additional documents or verification are required, I’m happy to provide them. Thank you very much for your help.

Organizational Apple Developer Account Transfer Stalled — Previous Account Holder Inaccessible
Hello everyone, We’re currently facing an issue with an existing Apple Developer Organization account tied to our company. The original account holder is no longer accessible/unavailable, and our organization needs ownership transferred so we can continue deployment and App Store operations. Over the past ~4 weeks we have: Submitted a CEO-signed authorization letter Contacted Apple Developer Support multiple times via phone/email Had the case escalated to a senior technician/team Been told we would receive a callback within a week However, we still have not received follow-up communication or resolution, and our app launch is currently blocked because we cannot access the organizational developer account. We are considering temporarily enrolling under an Individual Developer account to continue deployment while the organizational escalation remains pending. A few questions: Has anyone successfully gone through a manual organizational account holder reassignment? What was the actual timeline for resolution? Is there a more effective escalation path to Developer Program Operations? Would enrolling as an Individual account create issues later when transferring the app back to the organization account? Any insight or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Device receives DeclarationItems manifest but never fetches individual declaration bodies
Hi, We're implementing a DDM-capable MDM server. A DEP-enrolled, supervised iPad (iOS 26.4.2) successfully completes manifest synchronization but never proceeds to fetch the individual declaration bodies. Looking for guidance on what we might be missing. Observed flow (from our server logs): We enqueue a DeclarativeManagement MDM command and APNs-wake the device. The command body is: RequestTypeDeclarativeManagement (no Data field) Device acknowledges the command on the Connect endpoint (Status=Acknowledged). Device calls CheckIn with: MessageType = DeclarativeManagement Endpoint = tokens We respond 200 with: { "SyncTokens": { "DeclarationsToken": "", "Timestamp": "2026-05-19T..." } } Device calls CheckIn with: MessageType = DeclarativeManagement Endpoint = declaration-items We respond 200 with: { "Declarations": { "Activations": [{"Identifier":"...","ServerToken":"v1-..."}], "Configurations": [{"Identifier":"...","ServerToken":"v1-..."}], "Assets": [], "Management": [] }, "DeclarationsToken": "" } ---- Nothing further. ---- No request for Endpoint = declaration/activation/ No request for Endpoint = declaration/configuration/ No status report on Endpoint = status The MDM channel is healthy. The same device responds normally to non-DDM commands (DeviceInformation, etc.) immediately before and after this flow. Questions: Is an empty "Management" array acceptable in the declaration-items response, or is at least one declaration (e.g. com.apple.management. organization-info) required before the device will proceed to fetch declaration bodies? The DeclarationsToken returned in step 3 (tokens) and step 4 (declaration-items) are byte-identical. Is that correct, or should they differ in some way? Are there any additional preconditions for the device to begin fetching declaration bodies after receiving the manifest -- e.g. a specific Activation->Configuration linkage we might be missing? Is there a server-side log signal Apple can suggest we look for, or a way to see why the device decided not to fetch? Activation payload sample we publish: { "Type": "com.apple.activation.simple", "Identifier": "...", "ServerToken": "v1-...", "Payload": { "StandardConfigurations": ["<configuration-identifier-from-step-4>"] } } Configuration payload sample we publish: { "Type": "com.apple.configuration.softwareupdate.settings", "Identifier": "...", "ServerToken": "v1-...", "Payload": { ... softwareupdate settings ... } } Any pointers appreciated. Happy to share full server-side logs / payloads if useful. Thanks.

EVID(External Version ID)
Our organization is attempting to retrieve the External Version Identifier (EVID) history for all published versions. This data is required so that we can pass the exact externalVersionIdentifier integer to our deployment framework to pin specific app versions on our managed devices. We currently have an active App Store Connect account, but our attempts to fetch this data via standard publishing APIs return a 401 Unauthorized error. To help us resolve this technical blocker, please provide explicit engineering guidance on the following four points: API Endpoint Architecture: Is the enterprise Apps and Books for Organizations API (apple.com) the only platform that exposes the externalVersionId history for all versions? If so, what is the exact endpoint path we must call to return the full version-based EVID array? Account Requirements: Can these version-specific EVIDs be retrieved using our existing App Store Connect developer credentials, or is an Apple Business Manager (ABM) account strictly mandatory to bypass the 401 gate? ABM Portal Setup for EVIDs Only: If an ABM account is mandatory, what are the minimum technical steps required inside the ABM dashboard to fetch only the EVID data? Specifically, do we need to "purchase" a volume license for the target app to make its version history accessible via the API? Authentication Parameters: What is the correct token structure for this endpoint? Do we need to pass a specific location server token (sToken / itvt cookie) generated inside ABM alongside our signed developer JWT header? Thank you for your time and technical guidance. We look forward to your engineering team's response.

Appstore Connect Not Affecting Organizational Status — Senior Advisor Escalation Gone Silent — Case #102854501693
My support case has stalled despite being escalated to a Senior Advisor over a week ago with no follow-up or resolution. My application is being rejected from the App Store due to what appears to be a synchronization issue between apple.developer.com and App Store Connect. Full Timeline March 24, 2026 — My account migration from Individual to Organization was completed and approved by Apple. March 27, 2026 — My app (Version 1.0, Submission ID: 72b19231-8010-4844-b873-f2853d02092e) was rejected under Guideline 3.1.5 on an iPad Air 11-inch (M3). The rejection stated my app was submitted under an Individual account, which is not permitted for fintech applications. March 28, 2026 — I submitted a support request explaining the situation. April 6th, 2026 — I received a response from Developer Support, who acknowledged the issue and escalated it to a Senior Advisor. April 7, 2026 — I followed up via email as no Senior Advisor had contacted me. Today, April 13, 2026 — Still no contact from the Senior Advisor. App Store Connect still shows my account as Individual. Core Issue: When I go to apple.developer.com my account membership type is organization, with all relevant company details. However, my membership type in AppStore Connect still reflects an individual account. Such is demonstrated by an App Store review response: "Your wallet app facilitates the transmission and/or storage of a virtual currency but was submitted by an Apple Developer Program account registered to an individual, which is not appropriate for the App Store. Your app must be submitted through an Apple Developer Program account enrolled as an organization." What I Need A manual update of my Appstore Connect membership type such that it correctly reflects my Organization account status; allowing me to resubmit my app. Relevant details: Case Number: 102854501693 (screenshots of issue provided in case details) If any Apple staff can help escalate this internally or advise on next steps, I would be incredibly grateful.

DeviceInformationCommand Not Received After Enrollment – MDM Push Issue
Hi everyone, I'm running an Apple MDM service and encountering an issue where a number of devices stop receiving MDM push commands within 10 days of profile installation, even though everything appears to be set up correctly. Environment: MDM profile is installed and verified (status: OK, result: SUCCESS) Devices are cellular-enabled with no connectivity issues APNs certificate is valid (thousands of other devices are communicating normally) The command being sent to devices is DeviceInformationCommand No "NotNow" response or any check-in received from the affected devices for over a week Issue: We send DeviceInformationCommand to devices to retrieve device information and update the last communication timestamp. However, a subset of devices simply stop responding to this command within 10 days of profile installation. The last communication date is not being updated, and no response — not even a "NotNow" — is coming back from these devices. Since other devices on the same MDM setup are working fine, I've ruled out APNs certificate expiration and general server-side issues. Questions: Are there any known management points or configuration settings that could cause a device to silently stop receiving DeviceInformationCommand shortly after enrollment? What diagnostic steps would you recommend to identify the root cause on the device or server side? Are there any known bugs or reported issues related to this behavior in recent iOS versions? Is there any way to recover the MDM communication without requiring the user to re-enroll? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

SecureToken Generation for AutoAdmin Created via Automated Device Enrollment
Hi Apple Community, We are using Automted Device Enrollment to Enroll macOS Devices and we used to Create AutoAdmin, PrimaryAccount using the Command Account Configuration . As a Part of Primary Account Creation while testing we see that BootStrap Token is Escrowed to MDM, and SecureToken is Created to Primary Account. The Primary Account user will enable FileVault as part of our process. As Tested internally, we seen that SecureToken is escrowed to AutoAdmin only when BootStrapToken is escrowed to MDM By device and AutoAdmin logs in then. That too After FileVault Unlock Since we Sendout the Laptop to users to setup themselves there are no chances of AutoAdmin Login to occur. And it defeats the purpose of having the AutoAdmin Account in emergency situation to login into it from Login Window. Can someone confirm if this behavior is expected and what are the expectation and recommendations from Apple on when to use AutoAdmin Account. Is there any other ways to use AutoAdmin directly from LoginWindow Before To FileVault Disk Unlock

[iOS/iPadOS 26.1+] Wi-Fi IP Settings Change from Manual to Automatic When Applying MDM Profile
I have a question regarding MDM functionality for iOS/iPadOS. Background: According to Apple's support page(https://support.apple.com/en-us/125073), since iOS 26.1, "Previous Wi-Fi configurations will be replaced when a new profile is installed." We have observed that because of this change, when we apply a Wi-Fi configuration profile to an iPad via MDM, the manually configured network settings on the device (specifically, "Configure IPv4" and "Configure DNS") are reset to "Automatic". This erases the manually entered IP address, subnet mask, router, and DNS server addresses. Goal: We want to apply a Wi-Fi configuration profile from our MDM server to connect the device to a specific SSID, while preserving the manual IP and DNS settings that have been configured on the device. Question: Is there a way to prevent the IPv4 and DNS settings from being switched from "Manual" to "Automatic" when applying the configuration profile? For example, is there a specific key-value pair we can add to the profile to either preserve the existing manual settings, or to explicitly define manual/static IP settings within the profile itself for iOS/iPadOS? Reference: Sample Configuration Profile Below is a simplified version of the Wi-Fi configuration profile we are currently using. This profile does not contain any keys for IP address configuration. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>PayloadContent</key> <array> <dict> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>com.apple.wifi.managed</string> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>com.apple.wifi.managed.13E2E6B3-D4B9-4E23-888A-524B3ED40C38</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>13E2E6B3-D4B9-4E23-888A-524B3ED40C38</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>SSID_STR</key> <string>SSID</string> <key>EncryptionType</key> <string>WPA</string> <key>Password</key> <string>Password</string> </dict> </array> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>Configuration</string> </dict> </plist>

Individual to Organization Membership 17 days, not completed
I want to know about the time it takes to transition from an individual to an organization with Apple's Developer Program. I received an email notifying me that the transition process would begin on February 2nd, 2026, and today, February 19th, 2026, everything still shows as being in progress without any changes. So I want to know the maximum timeframe or how to know if they are actually completing this process. I have sent two support emails, but received no response.

Paid Apps Agreement Renewed, But In-App Purchases Still Unavailable

Is there a propagation delay after signing the agreement before In-App Purchases become available again? Does Apple need to perform any manual action on their side after the agreement is renewed?

SecureToken Generation for AutoAdmin Created via Automated Device Enrollment
Hi Apple Community, We are using Automted Device Enrollment to Enroll macOS Devices and we used to Create AutoAdmin, PrimaryAccount using the Command Account Configuration . As a Part of Primary Account Creation while testing we see that BootStrap Token is Escrowed to MDM, and SecureToken is Created to Primary Account. The Primary Account user will enable FileVault as part of our process. As Tested internally, we seen that SecureToken is escrowed to AutoAdmin only when BootStrapToken is escrowed to MDM By device and AutoAdmin logs in then. That too After FileVault Unlock Since we Sendout the Laptop to users to setup themselves there are no chances of AutoAdmin Login to occur. And it defeats the purpose of having the AutoAdmin Account in emergency situation to login into it from Login Window. Can someone confirm if this behavior is expected and what are the expectation and recommendations from Apple on when to use AutoAdmin Account. Is there any other ways to use AutoAdmin directly from LoginWindow Before To FileVault Disk Unlock

[iOS/iPadOS 26.1+] Wi-Fi IP Settings Change from Manual to Automatic When Applying MDM Profile
I have a question regarding MDM functionality for iOS/iPadOS. Background: According to Apple's support page(https://support.apple.com/en-us/125073), since iOS 26.1, "Previous Wi-Fi configurations will be replaced when a new profile is installed." We have observed that because of this change, when we apply a Wi-Fi configuration profile to an iPad via MDM, the manually configured network settings on the device (specifically, "Configure IPv4" and "Configure DNS") are reset to "Automatic". This erases the manually entered IP address, subnet mask, router, and DNS server addresses. Goal: We want to apply a Wi-Fi configuration profile from our MDM server to connect the device to a specific SSID, while preserving the manual IP and DNS settings that have been configured on the device. Question: Is there a way to prevent the IPv4 and DNS settings from being switched from "Manual" to "Automatic" when applying the configuration profile? For example, is there a specific key-value pair we can add to the profile to either preserve the existing manual settings, or to explicitly define manual/static IP settings within the profile itself for iOS/iPadOS? Reference: Sample Configuration Profile Below is a simplified version of the Wi-Fi configuration profile we are currently using. This profile does not contain any keys for IP address configuration. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>PayloadContent</key> <array> <dict> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>com.apple.wifi.managed</string> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>com.apple.wifi.managed.13E2E6B3-D4B9-4E23-888A-524B3ED40C38</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>13E2E6B3-D4B9-4E23-888A-524B3ED40C38</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>SSID_STR</key> <string>SSID</string> <key>EncryptionType</key> <string>WPA</string> <key>Password</key> <string>Password</string> </dict> </array> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>Configuration</string> </dict> </plist>

Individual to Organization Membership 17 days, not completed
I want to know about the time it takes to transition from an individual to an organization with Apple's Developer Program. I received an email notifying me that the transition process would begin on February 2nd, 2026, and today, February 19th, 2026, everything still shows as being in progress without any changes. So I want to know the maximum timeframe or how to know if they are actually completing this process. I have sent two support emails, but received no response.
