I am creating an app that uses critical messages, I have been granted this entitlement and I am adding the certificate and in the info.plist. In the app I request authorization to send messages to specific numbers. When I try the app in production from Xcode this works fine and I can send the critical messages. However, when I am using the app in the test flight the authorization does not seem to be remembered on the background. Moreover, I go to security/privacy settings and I grant permission to the selected number (I see that it only shows one number even when I have to granted, its like it removes the previous one) however when I exit the setting page the permission is reset (and therefore denied), I think this is a bug. Can you look into that. Both this removing granted permission (HIGH PRIORITY, this message can only be sent in the background, therefore the user can not grant it and why the maximum telephone number to be granted to send messages is reset also to a single one LOWER PRIORITY). Thanks

Hello, I am trying to get space which is consumed by APFS volume. The call getattrlist() works fine on macOS 15 (Apple silicon). However, it returns EINVAL on macOS 11.7.10 (Intel) if ATTR_VOL_SPACEUSED is defined. struct VolAttrBuf { u_int32_t length; off_t spaceUsed; } __attribute__((aligned(4), packed)); int64_t GetVolumeSpaceUsed(const std::string& mountPath) { struct attrlist attrList; std::memset(&attrList, 0, sizeof(attrList)); attrList.bitmapcount = ATTR_BIT_MAP_COUNT; attrList.volattr = ATTR_VOL_INFO | ATTR_VOL_SPACEUSED; VolAttrBuf attrBuf; if (getattrlist(mountPath.c_str(), &attrList, &attrBuf, sizeof(attrBuf), 0) || attrBuf.length > sizeof(attrBuf)) { std::cout << "getattrlist() failed with errno (" << errno << ")" << std::endl; return -1; } return attrBuf.spaceUsed; } Is it bug or ATTR_VOL_SPACEUSED is unsupported on macOS 11? Are there any other way to get space which is used on an APFS volume? (C++) Thank you in advance, Pavel

Dear Sir, I have some questions of IC firmware development of Find My. Any rule request that item must include dual bank feature in IC? I am using Nordic SDK_Connect SDK, Apple has own SDK? If yes, can I download it to use? In Find-My, Apple has service UUID in bluetooth IC? Thank you. Best regards, Sam Ng

Hello, I added a printer using lpadmin command. ` lpadmin "-p", "print_queue", "-D", "print queue", "-P", "temp/data/driver.ppd", "-E", "-o", "printer-error-policy=abort-job", "-o", "printer-is-shared=false", "-o", "cupsIPPSupplies=false", "-o", "cupsSNMPSupplies=false", "-o", "ColorModel=Color", "-o", "Media=A3", "-o", "OutputPaperSize=A3" then I set default printing options for your user account via lpoptions `lpoptions "-p", "print_queue", "-o", "Duplex=DuplexNoTumble", "-o", "Media=A3" But still default values in system print dialog are set to a4 and grayscale. Why? Is there any way how to change it to correspond with values set by these commands? Also tried to change driver files defaults, but again, nothing.

My sticker app was rejected when I submitted it to App Store Connect. Reason: "We were unable to locate your stickers in message app after installed your app." When I checked on an iOS18 device, this was correct. However, my stickers is visible when I dragged the half-modal(like sheetPresentationController) part. I hope what I need to do to get the stickers to display initially. My code(Xcode16.2) class StickerViewController: MSStickerBrowserViewController { var stickers = [MSSticker]() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() loadStickers() } override var stickerSize: MSStickerSize { get { return .small } } func loadStickers() { var imageSetPath = "en" for index in 1...20 { var strIndex = "" strIndex = "stmp" + String(index) + imageSetPath createSticker(assetLocation: "\(strIndex)", assetDescription: "\(strIndex)") } } func createSticker(assetLocation: String, assetDescription: String) { guard let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: assetLocation, ofType: "png") else { return } let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: path) do { let sticker = try MSSticker(contentsOfFileURL: url, localizedDescription: assetDescription) stickers.append(sticker) } catch { print(error) } } } extension StickerViewController { override func numberOfStickers(in stickerBrowserView: MSStickerBrowserView) -> Int { return stickers.count } override func stickerBrowserView(_ stickerBrowserView: MSStickerBrowserView, stickerAt index: Int) -> MSSticker { return stickers[index] } }

When I launch the Quick Look Preview Extension target in Xcode, an app called Quick Look Simulator opens with an almost empty window: Online I read that the Terminal command qlmanage allows to test Quick Look plugins (which I think were an older format for creating Quick Look extensions), but running qlmanage -p /path/to/previewed/file -c public.text -g /path/to/QuickLookPreviewExtension.appex (where QuickLookPreviewExtension.appex is generated by the Xcode build and is located in the DerivedData folder) gives an error Can't get generator at QuickLookPreviewExtension.appex How can I debug a Quick Look Preview Extension?

Hi all, I would like to know if kext consent can still be disabled on Apple Silicon Macs. I tried spctl kext-consent disable in recovery OS, but after rebooting spctl kext-consent status still returns ENABLED. Is this command disabled or something?

How can you force cancel a task that doesn't need cleanup and doesn't check for cancellation? If this cannot be done, would this be a useful addition to Swift? Here is the situation: The async method doesn't check for cancellation since it is not doing anything repetively (for example in a loop). For example, the method may be doing "try JSONDecoder().decode(Dictionary<String, ...>.self, from: data)" where data is a large amount. The method doesn't need cleanup. I would like the force cancellation to throw an error. I am already handling errors for the async method. My intended situation if that the user request the async method to get some JSON encoded data, but since it is taking longer that they are willing to wait, they would tap a cancellation button that the app provides.

I have a 4-input, 4-output hardware device and an 8-input, 8-output virtual device, which I combine into an aggregate device. I am using the SimplyCoreAudio library to get the channel count. The code is as follows: aggregationDevice!.channels(scope: .input) =>> 12 aggregationDevice!.channels(scope: .output) =>> 12 When the program's MicrophoneMode is set to standard, the channel count is correct. However, when I set the MicrophoneMode to voiceIsolation, the channel count is incorrect: aggregationDevice!.channels(scope: .input) =>> 4 aggregationDevice!.channels(scope: .output) =>> 12 Below is the code for creating the aggregate device： func createAggregateDevice(mainDevice: AudioDevice, secondDevice: AudioDevice?, named name: String, uid: String) -> AudioDevice? { guard let mainDeviceUID = mainDevice.uid else { return nil } var deviceList: [[String: Any]] = [ [ kAudioSubDeviceUIDKey: mainDeviceUID, kAudioSubDeviceDriftCompensationKey:1 ] ] // make sure same device isn't added twice if let secondDeviceUID = secondDevice?.uid, secondDeviceUID != mainDeviceUID { deviceList.append([ kAudioSubDeviceUIDKey: secondDeviceUID, kAudioSubDeviceDriftCompensationKey:1, kAudioSubDeviceInputChannelsKey:8 ]) } let desc: [String: Any] = [ kAudioAggregateDeviceNameKey: name, kAudioAggregateDeviceUIDKey: uid, kAudioAggregateDeviceSubDeviceListKey: deviceList, kAudioAggregateDeviceMainSubDeviceKey: mainDeviceUID, kAudioAggregateDeviceIsPrivateKey:false, ] var deviceID: AudioDeviceID = 0 let error = AudioHardwareCreateAggregateDevice(desc as CFDictionary, &deviceID) guard error == noErr else { return nil } return AudioDevice.lookup(by: deviceID) } I hope someone can tell me the reason Thank you！

Guys has anyone here used the PlayVideoIntent protocol while implementing app intents? If yes can you please walk me though what purpose it solves and what features and functionality I can unlock with it? Link to apple's documentation -> https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appintents/playvideointent

CarPlay woes. I think it's unacceptable that it silently kills an ongoing WiFi connection that has been established using ASAccessoryKit and NEHotspotHelper which is in active use. This is responsible for angry clients because their processes break a lot when they are in reach of the connected car. (And yes, they have to be in the reach of the car, because it is a diagnostic/maintenance app for cars…) Do I really need to ask my clients to unpair from CarPlay before using our app or is there another way?

We are integrating the Microsoft Web Chat Control inside a WKWebView in our iOS application. The microphone button (used for speech input) works as expected when the app is active. However, we are facing an issue when the app is sent to the background and then brought back to the foreground. Issue Details: When the app returns from background to foreground: 🔹 The mic button becomes unresponsive (taps are not recognized). 🔹 No permission prompt or speech functionality is triggered. 🔹 Other elements of the Web Chat control continue to work fine. This issue seems isolated to iOS and WKWebView usage. We have verified that microphone permissions are granted and there are no system-level blocks.

I wrote a simple program to hide the build-in camera by entitlement restriction as DTS suggested in the post: https://developer.apple.com/forums//thread/784511?answerId=839753022#839753022 But the program failed as the error message: Fail to open service: 0xe00002e6: Caller is not entitled to connect to EndpointSecurity. How can I apply for the entitlement to run the program? Is there any other solution to resolve hide build-in camera?

send a request and it returns with timeout Integration Team are Using Fortigate as a firewall and NGINX for some reasons so we use VPN TO Access , requests always succeed but at once it failed with timeout in randomize request not specific one we are using URLSession as a network layer when I retry the same failed request again, it success the request cannot connect apigee Sec Team concern { app session hits the security gateway with lots of SYN step to try to initiate a new session and doesn’t wait for (SYN-ACK / ACK) steps to happen to make sure the connection initiated correctly and gateway consider it flooding attack }

Sometimes when adding a VPN configuration, it just redirects to the Settings app and doesn’t continue with the rest of the configuration process like prompting for passcode. But it proceeds as normal after the 2nd or 3rd try. This issue is occurring on iOS 18.5 build 22F5068a but it has been a problem over several versions now. Feedback ID: FB17458055

If a notification: ONE_TIME_CHARGE is used to ship the IAP content, it involves a point where the client might not finish the transaction, yet the item is shipped. Will an unfinished purchase affect refunds?

I'm developing an application in Swift using Xcode on an iPad Pro. The app communicates over BLE with a custom hardware board. The board runs a scan algorithm in response to commands from the iPad application. When testing the scan algorithm on the board independently, it completes in approximately 35 ms. However, when triggered via BLE communication from the iPad, the same algorithm takes around 150 ms to complete (roughly equivalent to 3 BLE messages). Is this level of latency expected when using BLE on iOS, or is there a way to reduce it? I’d appreciate any guidance on improving the performance. Thank you!

The sample code provided in https://developer.apple.com/wwdc21/10114 doesn't appear to call finish() on unverified transactions, and I haven't been able to find any documentation regarding what to do with unfinished transactions. However, Apple has always emphasized the importance of finishing transactions, and since a transaction object is provided even with the unverified state, I'd love some guidance!
