Present CardSession multiple times
I'm developing a ticket app with Host card emulation. The session starts correctly the first time, but when trying to emulate a second ticket, after the first one has been read by the reader, or after the emulation has been canceled by the user, it doesn't work correctly for a while. This is my CardSessionManager: import CoreNFC @available(iOS 17.4, *) class CardSessionManager { private static var cardSession: CardSession? = nil private static var presentmentIntent: NFCPresentmentIntentAssertion? = nil static func initCardSession(_ accessCode: String) { cardSession?.invalidate() cardSession = nil let ProcessAPDU: (_: Data) -> Data = { capdu in var response = Data(accessCode.utf8) response.append(0x90) response.append(0x00) return response } Task { guard NFCReaderSession.readingAvailable, CardSession.isSupported, await CardSession.isEligible else { return } do { presentmentIntent = try await NFCPresentmentIntentAssertion.acquire() cardSession = try await CardSession() } catch { return } if let cardSession { for try await event in cardSession.eventStream { switch event { case .sessionStarted: cardSession.alertMessage = String(localized: "Searching reader...") try await cardSession.startEmulation() case .readerDetected: cardSession.alertMessage = String(localized: "Reading...") case .readerDeselected: cardSession.alertMessage = String(localized: "Successful reading!") await cardSession.stopEmulation(status: .success) case .received(let cardAPDU): cardSession.alertMessage = String(localized: "Communicating with reader.") do { try await cardAPDU.respond(response: ProcessAPDU(cardAPDU.payload)) } catch { cardSession.alertMessage = error.localizedDescription } case .sessionInvalidated(reason: _): cardSession.alertMessage = String(localized: "Ending communication with reader.") presentmentIntent = nil @unknown default: break } } } } } }

iPhone 13promax camera issue
Ever since the last update i have issues with my camera app. Sometimes when I open the app the forward facing cameras don’t work and it’s just a Black screen. I also get a warning that I may not have genuine iPhone parts installed. I have to reboot the phone every time just to have it app function again. It’s annoying. Please fix this. I never had any issues with the camera or its app up until after the update.

Rear Camera Not Working After iOS 18.3.1 Update – Crash Log Analysis
Hello, Since updating to iOS 18.3.1, the rear camera on my iPhone 13 Pro Max has not been functioning properly. The Camera app displays a black screen and becomes unresponsive. I analyzed the crash logs and found that the issue is related to the cameracaptured process, which handles image and video capture on iOS. Here are the key details from the crash log: 📌 Memory Error: "Address size fault" 📌 Impacted Thread: com.apple.coremedia.capturesession.workerQueue The "Address size fault" error suggests a memory access issue, likely causing the cameracaptured process to crash. This could be due to a bug in the video capture thread management introduced in the update.

macOS maximum CPU usage of application
My audio and MIDI sequencer application consumes about 600 % of CPU power with 10 different instruments during playback. While idle approximately 100%. What is the maximum of CPU power that an application can consume? Are there any limits and could they be modified? I am asking because if I add more instruments the real-time behaviour gets bad at 700 % of CPU power. I have got following HW: MacBook Pro 14-inch, Nov 2024 Apple M4 Pro 24 GB

missing openssl/bn.h in Dockkit ADK 1.0
I downloaded "Dockkit ADK 1.0" and trying to compile, and some openssl include .h files are missing, for example in HAPBoringSSL.c, the below files can't found: #include <openssl/bn.h> #include <openssl/evp.h> #include <openssl/hkdf.h> #include <openssl/hmac.h> #include <openssl/rand.h> where can I get these .h files? I'm worrying about the version conformance if I fetch these files from internet.

HID reports issue migrating from IOKit.hid to CoreHID
I have a command line utility I wrote that has been working great up until Sequoia that reads the macro keys from a Logitech G600 gaming mouse and turns it in to custom commands. it was using the following code, checking if usage was 0x80: IOHIDManagerRegisterInputValueCallback( g600HIDManager, { _, returnResult, callbackSender, valueRef in let elem = IOHIDValueGetElement(valueRef) let usage = IOHIDElementGetUsage(elem) let pressed = IOHIDValueGetIntegerValue(valueRef) Now i'm having issues with opening the HID manager: IOHIDManagerOpen(g600HIDManager, IOOptionBits.zero) After changing the system security from permissive to restrictive, It's giving the error code 0xE00002E2, or no permission. I can't easily add the sandbox entitlements as this is just a simple CLI application, not a bundled app, and even after setting back to csrutil disable, i'm still getting this error. So now i'm trying to turn it in to a bundled app and use CoreHID instead. Unfortunately I'm not getting any notifications that aren't the mouse itself. From the above code that was working before, i was looking for usage values of 0x80. I'm guessing that directly corresponds to the usage 0x80 in the HID descriptor. I am receiving notifications via await deviceClient!.monitorNotifications(reportIDsToMonitor: [] , elementsToMonitor: [] ) which should pick up everything for the device. I know the usage i'm looking for is referenced in the device client because it's in the deviceClient.elements collection. So is there something in CoreHID that specifically blocks Vendor specified Usage pages from being picked up by notifications? I've also tried just requesting the elements using let elemToMon = await deviceClient?.elements.filter({ ele in return ele.usage.page == 0xFF80 && ele.usage.usage == 0x80 }) let request = HIDDeviceClient.RequestElementUpdate(elements: elemToMon!) let results = await deviceClient!.updateElements([request]) but that call errors (still trying to figure out exactly how it errors). Any help would be appreciated, either in figuring out why i'm not getting the HID reports in question using CoreHID, or even what has changed that is causing me to not be able to use IOKit.hid anymore. Thanks in advance! For reference, here's the decoded HID descriptor: 0x05, 0x01, // Usage Page (Generic Desktop Ctrls) 0x09, 0x06, // Usage (Keyboard) 0xA1, 0x01, // Collection (Application) 0x85, 0x01, // Report ID (1) 0x05, 0x07, // Usage Page (Kbrd/Keypad) 0x19, 0xE0, // Usage Minimum (0xE0) 0x29, 0xE7, // Usage Maximum (0xE7) 0x15, 0x00, // Logical Minimum (0) 0x25, 0x01, // Logical Maximum (1) 0x75, 0x01, // Report Size (1) 0x95, 0x08, // Report Count (8) 0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position) 0x75, 0x08, // Report Size (8) 0x95, 0x05, // Report Count (5) 0x15, 0x00, // Logical Minimum (0) 0x26, 0xA4, 0x00, // Logical Maximum (164) 0x19, 0x00, // Usage Minimum (0x00) 0x2A, 0xA4, 0x00, // Usage Maximum (0xA4) 0x81, 0x00, // Input (Data,Array,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position) 0xC0, // End Collection 0x06, 0x80, 0xFF, // Usage Page (Vendor Defined 0xFF80) 0x09, 0x80, // Usage (0x80) 0xA1, 0x01, // Collection (Application) 0x85, 0x80, // Report ID (-128) 0x09, 0x80, // Usage (0x80) 0x75, 0x08, // Report Size (8) 0x95, 0x05, // Report Count (5) 0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position) 0x85, 0xF6, // Report ID (-10) 0x09, 0xF6, // Usage (0xF6) 0x75, 0x08, // Report Size (8) 0x95, 0x07, // Report Count (7) 0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position) 0x85, 0xF0, // Report ID (-16) 0x09, 0xF0, // Usage (0xF0) 0x95, 0x03, // Report Count (3) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF1, // Report ID (-15) 0x09, 0xF1, // Usage (0xF1) 0x95, 0x07, // Report Count (7) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF2, // Report ID (-14) 0x09, 0xF2, // Usage (0xF2) 0x95, 0x04, // Report Count (4) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF3, // Report ID (-13) 0x09, 0xF3, // Usage (0xF3) 0x95, 0x99, // Report Count (-103) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF4, // Report ID (-12) 0x09, 0xF4, // Usage (0xF4) 0x95, 0x99, // Report Count (-103) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF5, // Report ID (-11) 0x09, 0xF5, // Usage (0xF5) 0x95, 0x99, // Report Count (-103) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF6, // Report ID (-10) 0x09, 0xF6, // Usage (0xF6) 0x95, 0x07, // Report Count (7) 0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile) 0x85, 0xF7, // Report ID (-9) 0x09, 0xF7, // Usage (0xF7) 0x75, 0x08, // Report Size (8) 0x95, 0x1F, // Report Count (31) 0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position) 0xC0, // End Collection

Apple TV and connected TV restarting on Power off
Since tvOS 18.4 beta (22L5218l) i have the issue that When I turn off an Apple TV, the Apple TV and the connected TV turn off, but after a few seconds the devices start again. This never happened before. But now it is happening with 3 different Apple TV generations on 2 LG and 1 Telefunken TVs. All 3 Apple TV devices have been updated to tvOS 18.4 beta (22L5218l) and since then show this error.

Custom ethernet device does not reconnect on M4 iPad Pro
We are experiencing problems with the USB port on iPad Pro 11 inch (M4) model number MVW13NF/A. Our custom peripheral device (based on Raspberry Pi Pico + tinyUSB stack, is configured as a network adapter class and has communication with our App over UDP protocol. Our device also acts as a DHCP server, providing the IP address for iPad. The problem can be described as a “bus stall” or "bus hold" after sleep mode. To reproduce it we just send the iPad into sleep mode using a power button, the USB bus on M4 goes to the suspended state and won’t resume anymore when we wake the iPad up. The problem has occurred since the upgrade to iOS 18.2.1 and has not been observed before on the previously installed iOS 17 on the same iPad Pro M4. Also, the problem does not happen on the iPad Pro 11 inch (3rd gen with M1) model number MHW73FD/A, with the same iOS 18.2.1 installed. The problem also does not arise, if we connect our device via USB hub to the same iPad Pro M4. We have tested different versions of tinyUSB stack (either included in RPi Pico SDK or native unpatched). The problem is independent of the library version. It occurs always if our device is connected directly to the USB port of iPad Pro (M4) with iOS 18. It also stays after upgrading to the latest iOS 18.3 (beta) In the attached logs is (reduced for clarity) debug output from tinyUSB library about events on the USB bus. These logs were captured via RTT debugging output, using Segger J-Link debugger, so logging process does not affect the timings on the USB bus. There are three logs attached, for cases 1: "iPad Pro M4 + iOS18" (i.e. problematic case), 2: "iPad Pro M1 + iOS18", and 3: "iPad Pro M4 + iOS18 + external USB hub" (they are non-problematic cases). case1_usbd_log.txt case2_usbd_log.txt case3_usbd_log.txt This was already posted as feedback with id FB16366509

Error 561145187 - Recording audio from keyboard extension
Hi, as other threads have already discussed, I'd like to record audio from a keyboard extension. The keyboard has been granted both full access and microphone access. Nonetheless whenever I attempt to start a recording from my keyboard, it fails to start with the following error: Recording failed to start: Error Domain=com.apple.coreaudio.avfaudio Code=561145187 "(null)" UserInfo={failed call=err = PerformCommand(*ioNode, kAUStartIO, NULL, 0)} This is the code I am using: import Foundation import AVFoundation protocol AudioRecordingServiceDelegate: AnyObject { func audioRecordingDidStart() func audioRecordingDidStop(withAudioData: Data?) func audioRecordingPermissionDenied() } class AudioRecordingService { weak var delegate: AudioRecordingServiceDelegate? private var audioEngine: AVAudioEngine? private var audioSession: AVAudioSession? private var isRecording = false private var audioData = Data() private let targetFormat = AVAudioFormat(commonFormat: .pcmFormatInt16, sampleRate: 16000, channels: 1, interleaved: false)! private func setupAudioSession() throws { let session = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() try session.setCategory(.playAndRecord, mode: .spokenAudio, options: [.mixWithOthers, .allowBluetooth, .defaultToSpeaker]) try session.setPreferredIOBufferDuration(0.005) try session.setActive(true, options: .notifyOthersOnDeactivation) audioSession = session } func checkMicrophonePermission(completion: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) { switch AVAudioApplication.shared.recordPermission { case .granted: completion(true) case .denied: delegate?.audioRecordingPermissionDenied() completion(false) case .undetermined: AVAudioApplication.requestRecordPermission { [weak self] granted in if !granted { self?.delegate?.audioRecordingPermissionDenied() } completion(granted) } @unknown default: delegate?.audioRecordingPermissionDenied() completion(false) } } func toggleRecording() { if isRecording { stopRecording() } else { checkMicrophonePermission { [weak self] granted in if granted { self?.startRecording() } } } } private func startRecording() { guard !isRecording else { return } do { try setupAudioSession() audioEngine = AVAudioEngine() guard let engine = audioEngine else { return } let inputNode = engine.inputNode let inputFormat = inputNode.inputFormat(forBus: 0) audioData.removeAll() guard let converter = AVAudioConverter(from: inputFormat, to: targetFormat) else { print("Failed to create audio converter") return } inputNode.installTap(onBus: 0, bufferSize: 1024, format: inputFormat) { [weak self] buffer, _ in guard let self = self else { return } let frameCount = AVAudioFrameCount(Double(buffer.frameLength) * 16000.0 / buffer.format.sampleRate) guard let outputBuffer = AVAudioPCMBuffer(pcmFormat: self.targetFormat, frameCapacity: frameCount) else { return } outputBuffer.frameLength = frameCount var error: NSError? converter.convert(to: outputBuffer, error: &error) { _, outStatus in outStatus.pointee = .haveData return buffer } if error == nil, let channelData = outputBuffer.int16ChannelData { let dataLength = Int(outputBuffer.frameLength) * 2 let data = Data(bytes: channelData.pointee, count: dataLength) self.audioData.append(data) } } engine.prepare() try engine.start() isRecording = true delegate?.audioRecordingDidStart() } catch { print("Recording failed to start: \(error)") stopRecording() } } private func stopRecording() { audioEngine?.inputNode.removeTap(onBus: 0) audioEngine?.stop() isRecording = false let finalData = audioData audioData.removeAll() delegate?.audioRecordingDidStop(withAudioData: finalData) try? audioSession?.setActive(false, options: .notifyOthersOnDeactivation) } deinit { if isRecording { stopRecording() } } } Granting the deprecated "Inter-App Audio" capability did not solve the problem either. Is recording audio from a keyboard extension even possible in general? If so, how do I fix it?

macOS15.3 IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService returns e00002be.
Background Information In the macOS operating system environment, Program A uses libusb to access USB devices that comply with the USB Mass Storage protocol. To enable Program A to start automatically after macOS boots, its corresponding plist file has been placed in the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory. Problem and Phenomenon Description Program A works well on macOS versions prior to 15.3, and it can access USB devices normally. However, on macOS 15.3, the following abnormal situations have occurred: A. Program A launched by launchd cannot access the USB device. Checking the logs reveals that the IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService call in the darwin_claim_interface function returns the error code e00002be. B. Program A launched from the terminal command line with sudo privileges can access the USB device normally, and the return value of the IOCreatePlugInInterfaceForService call is 0.

Using iPhone Performance Gaming Tier with iPad Minimum Performance M1 won't allow install on iPhone 16 Pro Max
For the "Required device capabilities" in my info.plist I have: iPhone Performance Gaming Tier iPad Minimum Performance M1 But a beta test just informed me they cannot install on iPhone 16 Pro Max due to "incompatible hardware" I need to limit to iPhone 15 or newer and M1 or newer. I read that iPhone Performance Gaming Tier also limits iPads to M1 here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737946 Perhaps I should only use "iPhone Performance Gaming Tier" and by using "iPad Minimum Performance M1" it is not allowing it to be installed on an iPhone? It would be very nice if I could see what devices are supported by the current settings.
