I recently wrote an article on getting gtk auto complete/syntax highlighting on macOS its a genuinely fun hobby to make portable software, and this method will ultimately help in porting software to the macOS platform a copy and paste: before I continue, I want to mention that emacs auto completion, using company-mode, is rather slow when it comes to parsing a ton files, and in some configurations, especially recursively when it comes to parsing and displaying functions and macros, even when using the semantic auto complete system, but I do believe it speeds up when you initially parse and save to ctags or when you build a semanticdb, functions such as g_signal_connect() and macros such as G_APPLICATION however, did not work with company modes auto complete, but worked with flycheck on the fly syntax checking, using this method, and I haven’t had time to perfect an emacs configuration; maybe some time next week you will need gtk installed from brew or ports, since gtk has trouble compiling from source on some Mac configurations. this method works with whatever version of gtk is reported by pkg-config –cflags (pkg-config --cflags gtk. you will also need pkg-config installed, multiple installations of gtk can be used and utilized but the emacs plugins you’ll need are (and you’ll need to connect to Melpa using list-packages https://melpa.org/#/getting-started to have these automatically downloaded and configured): company company-c-headers flycheck flycheck-pkg-config exec-path-from-shell (this allows x11emacs to read the shells configuration, may be option for terminal based emac uses) optional: function-args-mode, but when fa-show-auto is used, it breaks themes in emacs download all of them through M-x list-packages (which means pressing alt+x, macOS option+x, which should issue an input on the bottom of emacs, where the status bar is), after that, type list-packages or use auto completion, aka ctrl+tab to cycle through possible candidates open a c file (C-f ~/test.c) (which is control+x, macOS control+x) type in: M-x semantic-mode M-x semantic-customize-system-include-path in semantic-customize-system-include-path, add the path to the gtk version you intend to develop for, in my case /opt/homebrew/Cellar/gtk4/4.16.12/include/gtk-4.0 using the text based interface; you should be able to use your mouse (click ins after where it says /usr/include. semantic is included in emacs. options are automatically saved at command) M-x exec-path-from-shell-initialize M-x flycheck-mode M-x flycheck-pkg-config in flycheck-pkg-config, press enter, and then type the name of the version of gtk that provides valid input from pkg-config (ie gtk4) M-x global-company-mode if you need to bind ctrl+tab to auto complete, you can add this to your config (~/.emacs.d/init.el) (global-set-key (kbd “C-”) ‘company-semantic) this will do most of the grunt work when plugins are installed (ctrl-tab shows a window to auto complete, ctrl+` (thats the key before 1, with shift it becomes ~) shows function argument. fa-show-auto automatically shows function prototypes, but can break emacs themes: (require ‘package) (add-to-list ‘package-archives ‘(“melpa” . “https://melpa.org/packages/”) t) ;; Comment/uncomment this line to enable MELPA Stable if desired. See package-archive-priorities ;; and package-pinned-packages. Most users will not need or want to do this. ;;(add-to-list ‘package-archives ‘(“melpa-stable” . “https://stable.melpa.org/packages/”) t) (package-initialize) (global-company-mode t) (global-flycheck-mode t) (semantic-mode t) (function-args-mode) (global-company-mode t) (global-flycheck-mode t) (semantic-mode t) (function-args-mode) (global-set-key (kbd “C-”) ‘company-semantic) (global-set-key (kbd “C-`”) ‘fa-show) if you need to compile from inside emacs, I would make a Makefile according to the gtk tutorial on gtk.org I also have another article on getting Xcode to work with gtk, which is more reliable: https://unix-world.com/2025/01/25/getting-gtk4-to-work-in-xcode-with-auto-complete-and-syntax-highlighting/ website is unix-world.com and I welcome any and all traffic !

Hello all. I am currently developing a database app of particular products for people who collect this item. Let's say model airplanes. People can look at their list of model airplanes and also see a collection of airplanes by model companies. I want to offer a link from a product in my app to a local retailer's website who sells this product on their website. Not just their base site, but directly to the products page. Meaning each product in my database will have a unique link to an external product page. This could also include links to Ebay or Amazon if local retailer doesn't sell the product. Is this sort of feature allowed inside App Store Apps as technically it's not an in-app purchase? I do see some vague answers around but none that target this specific circumstance. Thankyou in advance.

i am seeing a call icon on CallKit incoming call screen for a PushKit-initiated call (without caller information like name or number)

I want to implement a feature where a custom notification sound file is downloaded from the server when the app is first launched and stored locally on the device. When a push notification arrives, the stored sound should be played in all app states, including foreground, background, and terminated (killed) state. Does anyone have an idea on how to implement this in iOS? Specifically, I am looking for guidance on: 1)Downloading and storing the sound file securely on the device. 2)Using the locally stored file for push notification sounds. 3)Ensuring the sound plays correctly in all states, including when the app is not running.

I am using HelloPhotogrammetry in Xcode I can make one model with something like HelloPhotogrammetry.main([path_to_folder_of images, path_to_output/model.usdz, "-d", "medium", "-o", "unordered", "-f", "high" ]) But how would I request several models simultaneously? I only want to vary the detail. [ ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_medium.usdz", detail: .medium), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_full.usdz", detail: .full), ("/Users/you/Desktop/model_raw.usdz", detail: .raw ]

I discovered an issue where older Intel Macs (like my 2017 MacBook) enrolled in the macOS Sequoia Public Beta do not receive Ventura security updates, even though Sequoia is not compatible with the hardware. My system said “macOS is up to date” while stuck on Ventura 13.7.1, but after switching to the Ventura Public Beta channel, it immediately showed a new update available. This seems like a serious flaw—Apple should warn users or fall back to compatible OS versions when an enrolled beta is unsupported. Has anyone else experienced this? Could be a widespread issue for Intel Mac users still relying on Ventura.

I was experimenting with the screen time controls to see how it affected an app I am working on and I created a screen time passcode that I later forgot. Any fix? I can't find the "forgot passcode" button anywhere and I am now unable to turn off find my as a result.

For the SSDC submission, the app playground must run on Swift Playgrounds 4.5+ or Xcode 16+. Key questions: In Swift Playgrounds, is the app tested on iPadOS or macOS? In Xcode 16+, is the playground tested using Mac Catalyst, an iPad simulator, or an iPhone simulator? The submission form only mentions a simulator but doesn’t specify which one. Can I build an app primarily for iPhone (portrait mode), or is it better to focus on iPad (landscape mode) if that’s the expected testing environment in all cases?

Hello, I have iOS 18.4 beta, where can I see the energy consumption, by Matter 1.3?, in Apple Home application?, I see it is in beta, thanks Michal.

I have been reviewing the documentation on preparing your app to be the default messaging app, and I am wondering about the following: If I set my app as the default messaging app, will it be able to send and receive legacy SMS messages? Does iOS provide any SMS-specific framework or APIs to facilitate handling SMS messages directly within my app? I’d appreciate any clarification on whether iOS supports such functionality and, if so, how to integrate it into my app. Thank you!

i am using this code public static bool CheckForForceUpdate() { try { Version latestVersion = new(GetLatestVersion()); Version currentVersion = new(AppInfo.VersionString); if (latestVersion != null && currentVersion < latestVersion) { NSUserDefaults.StandardUserDefaults.SetBool(true, StorageKey.IsForceUpdate); return true; } else { NSUserDefaults.StandardUserDefaults.SetBool(false, StorageKey.IsForceUpdate); return false; } } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("CheckForForceUpdate....." + ex.Message); return false; } } public static string GetLatestVersion() { try { string appId = "1586153397"; // Replace with your App Store app ID string url = $"https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id={appId}"; using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()) { var response = client.GetStringAsync(url).GetAwaiter().GetResult(); var json = JObject.Parse(response); var latestVersion = json["results"]?[0]?["version"]?.ToString(); return latestVersion; } } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("GetLatestVersion..." + ex.Message); return null; } } The value of latestVersion should 2.1 in my production app i am not able to get this hence i am not able to achieve Force Update functionality

Hello developers, My question isn't directly related to app or software development, but this seems to be the most appropriate channel to possibly find the information I need. Context I work for an automotive company and I'm currently looking for Apple CarPlay certification guidelines. We're in the process of installing a multimedia system in a vehicle. The most viable solution would be to use the multimedia unit and microphone provided by our supplier, but with a custom wiring harness developed by our company to simplify the installation process. The multimedia unit, microphone, and the supplier’s harness are already certified for CarPlay. Question Would using our company’s custom wiring harness affect the existing CarPlay certification of the supplier’s product? Any information, contact, or suggestion on where I could find official guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Updated iPhone to 26 beta 2, everything is ok but battery, battery is changed, not original. My phone can't charge higher than 1% and turns off every 5 minutes, even connecting to wireless charger and cable at the same time don't work, restored iPhone thru iTunes.I hope I will be able to install new beta without any problems because loving the new design, hoping for the best. Thanks. My FB-FB18327769

Hi everyone, We're hoping someone here can help us out. We've run into a consistent issue when trying to enroll a new Apple Developer account as an organisation using our DUNS number. Here's what we've experienced: Individual enrollment through the Developer app works perfectly with a new Apple ID. However, when using an existing Apple ID and selecting organization enrollment, the process gets stuck: The payment button is greyed out in the Developer app. We're then locked out of enrolling through the app entirely. 4. When trying to complete the enrollment via the Developer website, there’s no valid payment method available (e.g., VISA option missing CVV field), and any attempts to proceed just loop without success. We're essentially stuck in a limbo state where we can’t proceed. We’ve gone through all the support channels: The automated assistant (Gaby) is unable to resolve the issue or understand the full context. Live chat support for both individual and business accounts told us they can’t assist and referred us back to the developer support system—which leads us back to square one. All members of our team were able to enroll individually without issue, but organisation enrollment consistently failed. Business support and Commercial support (spoken to supervisors) are unable to assist. They really tried and made an effort. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a way to get in touch with a real person at Apple who can actually resolve this? What are our next steps? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

After I got my repaired phone back from the shop, I noticed that iphone mirroring is not functioning like normal. I tried every solutions from deleting the .plist files and reset my phone's connection, but now it seems like the problem comes from the mirroring app itself. After deleting the .plist file and resetting the MBP, the setup for the mirroring app won't let me continue, as clicking the "continue" button only flash the descriptions of the mirroring feature for a slight moment, then return to the same setup UI as before. Is there anyway to completely delete and reinstall this app so that it functions again?

Hello Apple Developers, I am experiencing an issue where USB audio input (e.g., external USB microphone) is blocked when using AirPlay screen mirroring from my iPhone to a Mac or Apple TV. However, the built-in microphone continues to work without any problem. Issue Details: I am using an iPhone 15 (or latest device) running iOS [your iOS version]. I connect a USB audio interface/microphone via a USB-C adapter or Lightning adapter. The USB microphone works perfectly for audio input before starting AirPlay. The moment I enable AirPlay screen mirroring, the USB microphone stops working, and it disappears from available audio input sources. The built-in microphone continues to function, but I cannot use the USB microphone while mirroring. When I stop screen mirroring, the USB microphone immediately becomes available again. Expected Behavior: I would expect iOS to allow me to continue using an external USB microphone while mirroring my screen, just like it allows the built-in microphone to work. Questions: Is this an intentional restriction in iOS? Is there any workaround to enable USB audio input while using AirPlay screen mirroring? Is there a way to request a feature or configuration option to allow external USB microphones during AirPlay? I appreciate any insights or guidance from the Apple team or fellow developers. Thanks in advance! Best regards,

Hi, We have recently encountered a problem running our App on iPads with A9, A10 chipset. Since recently we have migrated our Network module to swift 6 our app has stoped working on these devices. Anyone else has noticed that too or if someone know why that is happening only for iPads with specific hardware?

Hi team, I am trying to enroll my company, in the Apple Developer Program - I am repeatedly receiving a rejection from Apple’s system. It shows in review and when I continue to enrollment, nothing happens. It submits as a new request. I have: ✅ Verified my business name and address with D&B (matches exactly). ✅ Checked that my business is a legal entity (LLP). ✅ Ensured all details match across D&B, UPIK, and Apple’s lookup tool. ✅ Attempted re-submission multiple times without success. However, despite these steps, I am still unable to proceed. Please help.
