Chrome replaced by Safari after in-app upgrade
Hello I want to report an issue on macOS, I also reported this issue on feedbackassistant, but I didn't get a response from the feedbackassistant. I am sorry it might not be appropriate to post it here, if so, you can move or delete this post or ask me to to so. Thanks. In short words, Chrome/Edge/Firefox users who manually set the browser as default browser in the macOS System setttings, will lose their default browser setting after browser a upgrade. What steps will reproduce the problem? (1) Install Chrome Canary, in my case I was using 134.0.6961.0. After installation, open it from launchpad, but don't set it as the default browser in the browser (2) Go to macOS's system settings, search Deafult Web Browser, set the new installed Chrome Canary as default browser (3) Go to Chrome Canary's Settings->About Chrome (4) Wait for Chrome update information to be updated (it will auto update to the latest version) (5) Check result of system default browser. Click a link from Notes, it will navigate to Safari. What is the expected result? System default browser should not change What happens instead? The System default browser changed to the topmost browser of the brower list in system settings. Click a link from Notes, it will be opened in Safari. Notes This bug also happens on Firefox and Edge, it should be a macOS bug. This bug is similar to https://issues.chromium.org/issues/346505950 Looks like after installation, macOS recognize the newly installed version of browser as a new browser, even though the signature of the application remained the same. In Local Network of macOS settings, some Edge users see multiple entries with the same name.

MacPro 2019 Boot Screen Selection?
hi. I have a MacPro 2019, and I'm running Monterey at the moment. I have three screens. Two 4k screens, and a XDR in the center of them. My MacPro 2019 boots with the left screen showing the startup and login screen. I've previously had it boot to my XDR before the others. I'm not entirely sure why it moved to the left, but I need it back on the center screen. We used to just drag a happy mac icon from screens in the displays system preference. I don't see any method to change this startup and login screen. How do I choose the permanent bootup and startup screen (as my XDR!). Thanks. Dave

Bug Reporting - Best way to report?
What is the best way to adhoc report bugs in an Apple OS? For example I'm experiencing a bug with macOS where the following occurs: In home office I have connected network drives that are part of my login items. I want them to mount in Finder automaticallly. When out of the office I get prompts about the missing drives that are persistent and cannot be dismissed with one click. Macos 15.2 and earlier has, since I can recall, REPEATEDLY prompted about these missing drives to the point I want to put a fist through the screen. I'm not sure why people aren't setting the world on fire over this bug or why Apple allows it to remain.

DetectBarcodesRequest operates differently among machines
Hi Apple Developers! I’m using the DetectBarcodesRequest function to identify QR codes in some images and PDFs. However, I’m facing an issue where the function doesn’t detect the barcode on certain documents and machines, while it works on others using the same document. The only common factor I’ve noticed is that the machines that successfully identify the QR code of the “problematic” document are all heavy developer machines that have Xcode installed. Interestingly, this doesn’t seem to be related to processor type (Intel vs. Apple Silicon). Could you please provide some guidance or leads on how to resolve this issue?

"Create Your Apple Account" Not Working
I just got a new 2024 Macbook Pro today. I finished setting it up, and I'm trying to reinstall a few apps. It told me that since I haven't used my Apple ID yet, I need to complete my Apple account. I've entered all my address information, but every time I hit continue, the boxes turn red, telling me I need to enter my information as if I never entered it in the first place. How can I fix this? I need to set this computer up before classes tomorrow.

Xcode 16.2 iOS error = CFMessagePort
Hi, After updating to Xcode 16.2, I am getting an error running all iOS apps. I'm using Sequioa 15.2. Error creating the CFMessagePort needed to communicate with PPT. I ran the default Hello World app and got the same error message (plus another error not showing up on my apps - Failed to send CA Event for app launch measurements for ca_event_type: 1 event_name: com.apple.app_launch_measurement.ExtendedLaunchMetrics). Can I ignore the error or is it truly affecting my app (all are testflight versions and it's fine if I don't update them for awhile, although not ideal). Hopefully someone can help! Thanks, -Ashley

Carplay - Low Fuel Suggestions
Dear Developers, I am wondering if there is a way to build on the current "Low Fuel" notification. Currently, if my low fuel light activates while Carplay is on, a low fuel notification is also sent to my phone. If the car can communicate this, can it also communicate mileage range? This way, if I'm in the middle of a route and the low fuel light engages, Carplay could suggest the nearest gas stations on the route within the remaining mileage range. Any information would be very helpful!

Analyzing recent crash reports for answers - kernel panics are causing Mac to frequently restart
Experiencing frequent automatic restarts on my late 2013 iMac running OS Catalina 10.15.7. Fairly certain that the issue doesn't have to do with my peripherals (external hard drive, flash drives, CD burner) and thinking it's a software issue. Below are the 4 different crash reports I’ve received for OneDriveStandaloneUpdater, Adobe Desktop Service, mds_stores, and mds. Wondering if anyone has any insights on how to remedy these out of the blue shutdowns based on the crash report info? Thanks in advance...

iPad Pro M4. Panic. Freezing and Restarting Daily Without Heavy Usage
I purchased an iPad Pro M4 in early December, and since day one, I’ve been experiencing a recurring issue. Almost every day, at random times, the device freezes for 1–5 minutes and then restarts itself. The tablet is not under heavy load when this happens — I mainly use it for light tasks such as watching videos in a player or Safari browser, web surfing, and reading books. The issue has even occurred while the iPad was idle and locked; it froze, displayed the Apple logo, and rebooted. I brought the device back to the store where I purchased it, and they sent it for a diagnostic check. However, the experts concluded that the device is fully functional, and no defects were found. After one of these crashes, I noticed that my Apple Pencil started lagging (see video file IMG_5688.MOV). However, after another reboot, the issue with the Apple Pencil resolved itself. I’ve documented the issue with several video recordings showing the freezing and rebooting behavior, as well as error logs generated after such incidents. Device Details: Model: iPad Pro M4 Usage: Light tasks only (video streaming, web browsing, reading) Environment: No overheating, no resource-heavy applications running What could be causing this issue, and how can I resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! P.S. I’ve uploaded all the device logs and videos demonstrating the issue to Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_R0i_iazADWo5EgStrPdgmf1XjgPP_RC?usp=sharing

Need Help Creating Demo Video for NFC Functionality (App Store Review Guideline 2.1)
Hi Everyone, I’m currently working on an app that uses NFC functionality, and I’ve hit a roadblock during the App Store review process. The review team has requested a demo video that demonstrates the app’s NFC functionality in use, as per Guideline 2.1. Here are the details I’ve received from the App Store team: • The demo video should show the app running on a physical iOS device, not on a simulator. • It needs to clearly document the NFC-related app features, user permission requests, and how the app interacts with NFC tags. My Challenges: 1. I’m unsure about the best way to visually capture the NFC interaction, as it involves scanning physical tags. 2. Are there any recommended tools or techniques for recording a demo on an iOS device that complies with Apple’s guidelines? 3. Has anyone successfully submitted an NFC app with a similar requirement? If so, I’d appreciate tips or examples of how you structured your video. I want to make sure I meet all the necessary requirements so the app passes review. Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help. Best regards, Edwin

How to Restrict In-App Purchases to a Specific User Email or Differentiate Users?
Hello, I am implementing In-App Purchases in my app and want to ensure that only users whose email matches their Apple ID email (the account used on the device as apple account) can purchase the subscription. Is it possible to retrieve the Apple ID email from the device or verify if the email matches the user's email in the app? If this is not feasible, what is the recommended approach to differentiate users and associate subscriptions with specific users in a secure way? For instance, how do I ensure that a subscription is tied to the correct user within my app? I understand privacy constraints, but I am trying to find the best way to match the subscription to the correct user while adhering to Apple's guidelines. Any guidance or best practices would be appreciated. Thank you!

Siri Issues
Hello I have the 16 pro max with 18.3 iOS update and I've noticed my Siri stops working or responding at times. I have shut down the phone and restart in order to get it working again. Any suggestions? Will the next update focus in Siri and its changes and finally am I the only one?

how to determine the Account Holder for a company / organization's Developer membership?
Greetings everyone, this is my first post here...thanks in advance for any guidance you may have. I work for a non-profit (charity status) and was attempting to sign up for a Developer account, with a fee waiver, in order to do some work for our organization that requires Developer access (enabling Sign In With Apple on a Discourse forum). I've received an e-mail from Developer Support saying my application was denied because there is already an Account Holder for our company's "existing membership." We are a small team that experiences a lot of turnover, and I presume this has to do with a predecessor. I've written back to support and am awaiting a reply, but am concerned they might only reply to whatever e-mail address is associated with this "existing membership" and that very well might be an inactive mailbox in our Google Workspace. I've explained all that and asked Apple if they can please let me know who this previous contact is. It's been a few days, while I'm waiting I thought I would ask if there is any other way to look up the contact for a given organization, or if I just need to wait and hope to hear back from Developer Support? Thanks for any advice.
