I have just purchased an Apple developer Account from Bangladesh and it sent codes perfectly for the first 2-3 times for logging in, but after that no matter what I do it doesn't send verification code and I am stuck, I now cannot log in and this is extremely extremely frustrating
We have an electron app developed for Mac. We would like to restore the user data previously saved in downloads once user installs the app from store and first launch. But MAS has restrictions with ""com.apple.security.files.downloads.read-write". We have enabled the user access in Entitlement files and request user permission before access What options can be user to auto restore the data from downlodas?

iOSアプリでNEAppPushSessionを使い、NEAppPushDelegateの通知を受けてCallKitの着信画面を表示する実装をしていますが、以下の問題に直面しています。
8/13
ログにて下記のエラーが頻発しました。
通知の受け取りテストを約120回してその間ずっとこのエラーが出ていました。
エラー 2025-08-14 11:27:06.793073 +0900 nesessionmanager NESMAppPushSession[SimplePushDefaultConfiguration:7B7218F3-94B5-4AE5-9B9E-94E176694D02] failed to report incoming call to CallKit, error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.callkit.networkextension.messagecontrollerhost was invalidated from this process." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.callkit.networkextension.messagecontrollerhost was invalidated from this process.}
このエラーログが頻発した後、callkitの通知画面が表示されなくなりました。
ですがどうやら通知の監視は開始しているようです。
15時間後の8/14
時間をあけたからか、再度通知が来るようになりました。
ですが再度通知の受け取りテストを行った時に同じエラーログが出ました。
再度通知テストを約120回程行ったら、このエラーログが頻発した後、callkitの通知画面が表示されなくなりました。
ですがどうやら今回も通知の監視は開始しているようです。
15時間後の8/15
今日は15時間かけても通知を取得できませんでした。
ですが同じく通知の監視は開始していそうです。
iPhoneの再起動、Xcodeのクリーンアップ、アンインストールして再インストールなどしても通知は来ないままでした。
また、不思議なことに通知が来ない事象が起きた端末以外でも同じように通知を取得することができません。
他の通知は受け取ることができますが独自の通知であるNEAppPushManagerだけ通知を取得することができません。
質問です。
再度通知を出すためには何をすれば良いでしょうか。
この事象は4099エラーを出しすぎたことにより発生する障害なのでしょうか。
4099エラーを出ている原因は何でしょうか。

Currently i am using an iphone 15 pro which is just 7 months old but it was good till this month it was at 97% even after using more than 6 months, but in recent fews days it is regularly dropping by 1% every day and now it is at 89% only with 10 to 12 days it dropped by 8% . Is my battery defective or something is wrong with my phone .
bcoz of this i am very upset because of this bad decrease of battery health . i have heard it is normal to degrade by 1% monthly but mine is dropping daily its soo frustrating.
and if my battery reaches under 80% within the warrenty period?
will get a free battery replacement from apple or not ? I don’t have apple care+ .
But its under 1 year standard warrenty .
please reply apple as its soo frustrating
I'm encountering an issue related to BLE device discovery on iOS.
I have a BLE peripheral device that I initially connected to using an iOS device. After this connection, the BLE device's advertised name was programmatically changed by the peripheral. Now, when I try to scan for this device using other iOS devices, it does not appear in the scan results in most apps — including nRF Connect and our own custom BLE app that uses CoreBluetooth.
A few observations:
The device is definitely powered on and advertising (confirmed via Android).
The name change is reflected correctly on Android and on the iOS device that originally connected to it.
Other iOS devices no longer see the device in their scan list.
We have get the response from Apple pay after the the customer doing the face ID & touch ID authorization.
But the shiping contact is not complete, for examble:
` {
"addressLines": [
"1************ kwy"
],
"administrativeArea": "FL",
"country": "",
"countryCode": "",
"emailAddress": "S*********le.com",
"familyName": "******i",

"locality": "*******s",
"phoneNumber": "+*******79",
"phoneticFamilyName": "",
"phoneticGivenName": "",
"postalCode": "*****3",
"subAdministrativeArea": "",
"subLocality": ""
},`
as the documents said, it should be the completed shipping contact,
but the country & countrycode is null

The issue described here in this stack overflow conversation is still an issue today when it comes to the read back of the last 4 digits in the phone numbers for North American numbers as minus.
Is there a solution other than overriding the accessibleLabel property?

WidgetKit: Image(uiImage: UIImage(named: "jp_jump")!).resizable().scaledToFit().frame(width: 58, height: 16).padding(EdgeInsets(top: 0, leading: 16, bottom: 0, trailing: 0))

Hello,
When I listen to title in my app with VoiceOver, it makes a strange sound.
This characters make with Korean+number+Alphabet.
Is this combination makes some strange sound with voice over?
I would like to ask if Apple can fix this issue.
Thank you.

When turning VoiceOver ON, GCController does not send button press events for "Button A" and "Button Center".
This happens when using Siri 2nd generation remote (with dedicated arrow buttons on the circle around center button) and also when using iOS remote. I didn't test it on old Siri 1st generation with touchpad without arrow buttons.
Example:
gameController.microGamepad?.allButtons.forEach { button in
button.valueChangedHandler = { [weak self] _, _, _ in
self?.buttonHandler(gameController: gameController, button: button)
}
private func buttonHandler(gameController: GCController, button: GCControllerButtonInput) {
print("BUTTON: Pressed \(button.description) isPressed=\(button.isPressed) isTouched=\(button.isTouched)")
}
#endif
VoiceOver ON (incorrect behavior):
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Left (value: 0.030, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Down (value: 0.079, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Left (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Down (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
VoiceOver OFF (correct behavior):
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Left (value: 0.137, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Up (value: 0.078, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Button A (value: 1.000, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Button Center (value: 1.000, pressed: 1) isPressed=true isTouched=true
BUTTON: Pressed Button A (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
BUTTON: Pressed Button Center (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Left (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
BUTTON: Pressed Direction Pad Up (value: 0.000, pressed: 0) isPressed=false isTouched=false
I could use for detection Direction Pad Left/Right/Up/Down and detect position between -0.7 and +0.7 and handle it as center button press, because I use that on old Siri remote where I need to distinguish center button and arrows (for switching TV channels by Up/Down and Skip forward/back by Left/Right arrows), but for new Siri remote it would be unnecessary workaround.
Does anybody know why the center/select button is not detected when VoiceOver is ON. Is there another way of detecting it using GCController?
I don't want to use SwiftUI onTapGesture for this one particular case.
Is it an unexpected bug in tvOS APIs or is there some specific reason why center button is not handled by GCController when VoiceOver is ON?
Thanks.

As part of apple pay implementation we are trying to create a merchant session by trying to connect to apple endpoint https://apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession.
While trying to do so we are facing an error “An error occurred while sending the request. The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel.” .
I call the validation url by passing to a C# .Net Framework 4.8 Web API. The API setups an HttpClient with the Merchant Identity Validation Certificate found in my apple account and calls the validation url passing in the required Json Validation Object. When I call PostAsync() I get an exception with the above error message
Code is working successfully on my local machine but facing this issue while deployed on Dev / Model environment for testing.
We have used Azure app service for deployment and TLS version 1.2 already present here.
We have used the Merchant Identity certificate that was issued and have also checked with networking and infrastructure team to make its not an issue from our side.
Does anyone have any other idea what could be causing this error.
Thank you,
Supriya

Hi everyone,
I've encountered a rare and strange crash in my app that I can't consistently reproduce. The crash seems to occur deep within Apple's internal frameworks, and I can't pinpoint which line of my own code is causing it. Here's the crash stack trace:
#44 AXSpeech
SIGSEGV
SEGV_ACCERR
0 CoreFoundation ___CFCheckCFInfoPACSignature + 4
1 CoreFoundation _CFRunLoopSourceSignal + 28
2 Foundation _performQueueDequeue + 492

11 Foundation ___NSThread__start__ + 732
12 libsystem_pthread.dylib __pthread_start + 136
Sometimes, instead of line 10 referencing _TTSCFAttributedStringCreateStringByBracketingAttributeWithString, it shows:
10 TextToSpeech LogWarning(char const*, ...) + 7288
Has anyone experienced a similar issue or know what might be triggering this crash? Any guidance on how to investigate or resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I need to direct text-to-speech generated audio from my app simultaneously to a bluetooth speaker device AND to the internal iPad speaker. The app uses AVSpeechSynthesizer and several third party speech engines. How best to do this?
I noticed the outputChannels property on AVSpeechSynthesizer...are there any examples of how to use this?

Hello,
In our app we provide a button that initiates a phone call using tel://.
For normal numbers, tapping the button presents the standard iOS confirmation sheet with Call and Cancel.
If RTT is enabled on the device, the sheet instead shows three options: Call, Cancel, and RTT Call.
However, when dialing a national emergency number, this confirmation dialog does not appear at all — the call is placed immediately, without giving the user the choice between voice or RTT.
Is this the expected system behavior for emergency numbers on iOS?
And if so, how does RTT get applied in the emergency-call flow — is it managed entirely by the OS rather than exposed as a user-facing option?
Thanks in advance for clarifying.
I am seeing a strange issue where NSObject accessibilityRespondsToUserInteraction returns true on Simulator but false on device.
Checking the same object on simulator with Accessibility inspector I see the object traits as image so why would it return true in that case?
Are there any other way to check the the item might be accessibilityRespondsToUserInteraction OR Clickable beside that property and traits?
(Or is it just another bug)
