M3 Max won't update past 15.4.1
So I have an M3 Max MBP which I was planning on taking out to use while my son had his 4-hours-long archery class, but I've been using the Studio (running Tahoe) for development, and the version of Xcode running on there is too new for the version running on the MBP. So I try to update the MBP, but Settings thinks it's up to date: This is an M3 Max... so that seems ... unlikely. I've tried rebooting the thing, I've tried clicking any number of times on the 'check for updates' button, but no joy. Anyone got any pointers ?

(Random) Affected Platform & Monitor Combination Apple MacBook Pro (16-inch, M4 Max, 2024) & Samsung S32BG850NC (4K 240Hz) Vendor Anaysis: After analysis, we found that the issue also fails when the host is directly connected to the monitor (tested with two different USB-C to DP cables, both showing the same failure). The RTS5490 only bypasses the audio and video signals, and no abnormal behavior was observed in the logs. In addition, we found that different behaviors occur when switching the monitor OSD between DP 1.1 and DP 1.2: OSD set to DP 1.1: Direct connection: Pass Connected through RTS5490: Pass OSD set to DP 1.2: Direct connection: Fail Connected through RTS5490: Fail (same issue reported by Tongxing) Testing with other monitors does no

Unable to select 4K resolution on Sharp 8TC60DWTX (8K) display.
Problem description: Connected to a Sharp 8TC60DWTX (8K) display, but unable to select 4K resolution Setup Condition Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch M4 Max Sharp 8TC60DWTX (8K) 3.Duplicate Procedure After connecting to 8K MNT and select 4K solution, it still display as 8K. Vendor analysis: 8K60 shows no image; switching to 30 Hz works normally → After analysis, we found that the 8K60 timing output from the MacBook is incorrect. The horizontal blanking (H-CBlanking) is too small to accommodate the audio data, so the RTD2191E does not output video to the monitor. → This issue does not occur on Windows platforms, confirming that this is a host-side issue.

Digital Services Act in "In Review"
Hi everyone, my Digital Services Act (DSA) status in App Store Connect has been “In Review” for over a week. Is this normal? The app is already available in 178 countries, but it can’t be released in the EU (my home market) solely because this DSA isn’t approved yet. How long did it take for you? Is there anything that helps speed up the DSA review? Thanks for any insights.

Universal Links are not working in the Xcode 26 simulators
After updating the Xcode 26, defined universal links are not working in the iOS simulator. In the configuration, we have verified all the things including AASA file hosting and domain configuration. It is working properly in the real devices. Issue occurring only for Simulators. How can I debug it in the simulators to validate this ? Xcode Version: 26.1 Simulator iOS: 26.1

Universal Control Copy Paste Issue
I have a Macbook and a Mac Mini at home, connected with Universal Control. When I copy-paste some big group of files (say, 250GB of photos) the OS creates a copy of all those files under shared-clipboard in Library (filling up disk space in short time) even if I don't even move the cursor to other devices. It doesn't even delete those files and clear up disk space even after I paste it. This is a design flaw, it shouldn't be like this.

MacBook Pro Messages app issues on macOS Tahoe 26 Public Beta
Regardless of how long my Mac has been running, clicking on the Messages app causes it to bounce repeatedly. Eventually, it stops and behaves as if it has opened, but sometimes it doesn’t open at all. When it does open, the messages either don’t sync or take several hours to load. Most of the time, the last synced messages are over a week old. Occasionally, I can only message certain people from my Mac. If I attempt to text someone from my Mac, it freezes completely, requiring me to force quit. Interestingly, I don’t encounter any issues between my iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPad Pro. Both my iPhone and iPad are running the latest macOS betas.

Cyber Stalking from Criminal Organization
This is unique situation, save your rhetoric calling me crazy unless you’re willing to look at the evidence I’ve collected over the last 2 years. My entire family is being stalked and harassed by a DOD Contractor named Galapagos Federal Systems. They are literally using our identities to and accounts they’ve created to run Amazon Marketplace Business Accounts as sellers. They have amended my tax returns and they have hijacked my domain, which is MauiEasyRiders.Com. It’s pretty easy to see that they’ve hikacked my domain as they are using more than 20 ports around the clock, and I had to walk away from my business of 15 years because of a DDoS attack that is literally impossible to escape. These people are the lowest of the low. They have 250 million dollars in DODcontracts and they are registered as a small section 8a Native Hawaiian owned business, regardless of the fact that the owner is not Hawaiian and not from Hawaii, and the business was formed in Delaware. Their headquarters is literally a house in a neighborhood with nothing but a big ass can in the driveway, no traffic, no offices, just spook government hacks. I’ve mailed a complaint to the DOD hotline, been to the FBI in person, filled out all the forms online for every possible agency, filed police reports, nobody will even glance at the data I’ve accumulated and meticulously detailed, both in pdf format and on paper. They’re using my mothers identity and the identities of my two adult sons. It’s ridiculous. I literally have 90 Ip addresses in my DNS Leak Test and my home WiFi is hosting 190 IP Addresses. They have a Cisco business account in my name with over two hundred ASA and Fire IO devices that are years out of date. I have their exploit data, names, email addresses, absolutely everything I could possibly need that anyone investigating fraud would ask for, yet these parasites continue to carry out their crimes as if the law doesn’t apply to them. The only thing I have not tried is going to my Representatives from Washington in person. Anyone have any ideas? I’m happy to share data if anyone is interested in seeing it, even if you’re not interested in helping I’m happy to share all the info I can on their fraud. Thanks in advance!

Broken YouTube audio at anything other than 1x speed
Since updating to tvoS 26.1/2 YouTube audio breaks when playing videos at anything other than 1x speed. At 1.25x or higher, the audio is "static-y" and distorted almost immediately. Strangely, AirPods work fine, it only happens with other audio outputs. Anyone else experiencing this, or have a fix? tvOS: 26.2 (23J582) YouTube app: 4.51.08 Speed Output Static 1x TV speakers No 1x HomePods No 1x AirPods Pro 3 No 1.25x TV speakers Yes 1.25x HomePods Yes 1.25x HomePods Mini Yes 1.25x Sonos One Yes 1.25x AirPods Pro 3 No

App Review 5.2.1 Ownership Rejection — Product Name vs Legal Entity Confusion (Advice Needed)
Hi everyone, I’m running into repeated App Store rejections under Guideline 5.2.1 (Ownership) and would appreciate advice from anyone who’s navigated this successfully. Context: • The app is called FitQuest: AI Health Coach • FitQuest is a product/brand name, not a legal entity • The legal owner and operator is PandeyInvestment LLC • The Apple Developer account is under PandeyInvestment LLC • There are no third-party brand affiliations or white-label use • The app was built using a third-party app builder (web-to-native wrapper) What I’ve already provided to App Review: • Official LLC formation documents • A signed ownership & authorization letter explicitly stating: • FitQuest is a product owned by PandeyInvestment LLC • PandeyInvestment LLC is solely responsible for the app, services, and data • Clear explanations in Resolution Center replies Despite this, Apple continues to respond that the app “appears to be created from an app generation service and not directly submitted by the owner/provider of the business or service,” and asks again whether FitQuest is a business entity. My questions: 1. Is Apple expecting the app name to exactly match the legal entity name in cases like this? 2. Has anyone resolved a similar issue without creating a separate DBA or renaming the app to the LLC name? 3. Are there specific metadata fields (Seller Name, Copyright, Support URL, etc.) that reviewers rely on more heavily for ownership verification? 4. Is there additional documentation Apple typically accepts beyond LLC registration + signed authorization? Any guidance or firsthand experience would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Wallet authentication rejected. Any recommended approach?
Hello, Our messaging app was rejected with guidelines 4.0 and 4.2.3 for using wallet authentication. Rejection reasons: "App uses web browser to sign in" we use deep links to native wallet apps, but they fallback to browser when wallets aren't installed "Requires users to download external apps" (Phantom/Solflare/Backpack wallets) Our situation: Wallet authentication is identity verification users sign with their private key There's no username/password alternative - the wallet address IS the identity Similar Web3 apps are approved on the App Store. Or like similar to whatsapp using phone number as the authentication to start with. What's the recommended implementation for wallet-based auth on iOS? Should we just provide a demo mode for reviewers like they suggested for? If so, how do we handle features requiring a real wallet. And can we remove that on later versions of the app? Is there a way to satisfy these guidelines while maintaining wallet authentication? Thank you.
