Every time I edit anything in the editor Xcode crashes. I did some research and found that if I disable code completion I dont get this issue but code completion is a huge time saver so I dont want to lose that. I have tried clearing my build folder, deleting derived data switching from Xcode 27.2 to 27 and 27.1 but I keep getting the same issue. This is a known issue in 27.2 (186939138) but it isn't listed anywhere else, am I the only person getting this bug? Anything else I should try? This just started happening today, my Mac updated to 27.2 last night. Mac OS 27.2, M4 Pro

Hi Apple Developer Forums, I’m a heavy user of the Shortcuts app and the new multiple timers in iOS have been incredibly helpful. However, there is one limitation that makes them hard to use in automations. Right now, the “Start Timer” action in Shortcuts does not let you set a Label for the timer. This means when a timer created by a shortcut goes off, I can’t tell what it was for (for example, a 15‑minute laundry timer vs. a 15‑minute tea timer), even though labeled timers already work perfectly in the Clock app. Feature request: please add a Label field to the “Start Timer” action in Shortcuts so automations can create named timers, just like in the Clock app. This would make multiple timers much more practical for automation and for power users. Thank you for considering this improvement.

Try out Reboot UI buttons and let me know if you would use it. https://testflight.apple.com/join/5wPEf15k

I’m trying to determine whether this is a known macOS/firmware issue, a hardware issue, or something else in the Apple-silicon sleep/power-management path. Hardware / software: MacBook Pro 14-inch (Nov 2023), M3 Pro Model identifier: Mac15,6 11-core CPU, 14-core GPU, 18 GB RAM macOS Tahoe 26.6.2 (25G83) SoC T6030, revision 11 iBoot / firmware: mBoot-18000.161.10 Symptom: The Mac intermittently performs a full reset/reboot while the lid is closed and it should be asleep. I usually discover this when I open the lid and find that the machine has rebooted rather than waking normally. A particularly disruptive aspect is that this happens when I transport the Mac while the lid is closed. If I put the sleeping MacBook in a backpack and carry it, or even simply carry it in my hands with the lid closed, I can later find that it has reset (the startup sound plays) and booted to the startup disk selection / startup options screen instead of remaining asleep. This behavior makes normal closed-lid transport unreliable. The correlation with movement while the lid is closed is one of the reasons I initially suspected something involving the lid sensor, sleep-state handling, or another hardware/power-management component. However, I can also reproduce the reset with the computer completely stationary on a desk, so physical movement is not required to trigger the failure. The failure is strongly correlated with clamshell sleep/dark-wake transitions. It can happen shortly after closing the lid or several minutes later. This is not just an application crash. Multiple reproductions have generated ResetCounter reports and PMU watchdog/reset fault data. Most recent reproduction (verified Safe Mode): I booted using Apple-silicon Safe Mode and personally verified that “Safe Boot” was displayed before testing. I then closed the lid normally and left the Mac alone. It rebooted after a few minutes, while the lid was closed. Immediately afterward macOS created a new type-115 ResetCounter report. Relevant fields: Boot failure count: 1 Boot faults: rst btn_rst,btn_seq_reset target_off_shutdown Boot stage: 0x40 socId: 6030 socRevision: 11 DumpPanic then read auxiliary PMU fault data containing: wdog,reset_in_1 rst_in,reset_in_1_deassert During the same boot, the AppleSPMIPMU driver logged: rst crash,crash_in wdog,reset_in_1 rst_in,reset_in_1_deassert and another PMU entry contained the same sequence plus: rst btn_rst,btn_seq_reset target_off_shutdown I am not assuming undocumented meanings for every PMU flag. For example, I am not treating btn_rst as proof that a physical power button was pressed. The important point is that the same low-level watchdog/reset pattern has occurred repeatedly. Also, DumpPanic successfully read 3,145,728 bytes from the panic area, but reported: it did not contain any paniclog data (buffer was all zeros) No paniclog data found in local device So there is no normal surviving kernel panic report to inspect. Earlier controlled reproduction after reinstalling macOS: I performed an in-place reinstall of macOS from Recovery. The machine was confirmed to be running 26.6.2 (25G83) afterward. Immediately after the reinstall I ran another controlled test while recording kernel/powerd/powerexperienced/DumpPanic logs. I closed the lid once and did not touch the machine. The logs showed a normal physical close sequence: SMC HID Event: 03 01 00 PMRD: Clamshell closed clamshell closed 1 sleep reason Clamshell Sleep macOS then entered the clamshell sleep path. Shortly afterward it transitioned from dark wake to full wake due to HID activity, even though I had not physically reopened the lid. A corresponding low-level Clamshell opened event was not present in the captured stream, and the kernel continued to report: clamshell closed 1 It then attempted clamshell sleep again and entered dark wake with: DarkWake: sleepASAP 1, clamshell closed 1 The machine later reset. On the following boot a new ResetCounter reported Boot failure count: 1, and the auxiliary PMU fault data again contained: wdog,reset_in_1 rst_in,reset_in_1_deassert The kernel PMU log also contained crash,crash_in. DumpPanic again read 3,145,728 bytes and found the panic buffer all zeros. There was another earlier controlled reproduction with the same PMU watchdog/reset class, so this is not a single isolated event. Lid-angle / clamshell testing: I separately monitored the low-level lid events while deliberately opening and closing the display. Normal physical movements produced coherent pairs such as: SMC HID Event: 03 01 00 / PMRD: Clamshell closed and: SMC HID Event: 03 00 01 / PMRD: Clamshell opened I did not observe simple spontaneous open/close flickering while the display was stationary. This does not completely rule out an intermittent lid sensor/flex/magnet issue, but it does not look like a straightforward continuously-failing lid sensor. Other troubleshooting: Apple Diagnostics reports no issues. The issue survived an in-place macOS Recovery reinstall. The issue reproduces in verified Safe Mode. I have not found a conventional kernel panic payload for these failures. I am not attributing the issue to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Chrome, ANE, or any other subsystem based only on incidental log messages. Previous Apple repair: Earlier this year Apple serviced the machine for the same exact symptoms. The service summary says the following parts were replaced: Logic board — symptom category: System Startup/Stability/Unexpected Restart/Shutdown Lid Angle Sensor — symptom category: System Startup/Stability/Will Not Sleep Touch ID board MagSafe 3 board The same closed-lid reset problem continues after that repair. What I’m trying to understand: Is this PMU watchdog/reset pattern known on M3 Pro / T6030 systems during clamshell sleep or dark wake? Are there specific sysdiagnose, power-management, PMU, or firmware logs that would be useful to Apple engineering? Would a DFU firmware Revive be a meaningful next isolation step given that Recovery reinstall, Safe Mode, diagnostics, and a prior logic-board/lid-sensor replacement have not resolved it? I can provide sanitized ResetCounter output and relevant unified-log excerpts. I have intentionally omitted serial numbers, repair identifiers, CrashReporter keys, account information, and other identifying details here.

We have had a difficult time getting our developer account approved and it has been many months. The orginator has left the company, and even though she has tried from her current role to get a resolution, nothing seems to work. We have made many, many calls and emails, and nothing seems to help. Anyone have any ideas?

Hello everyone!! 😊🤗 I'm starting to learn development for Apple platforms and I'd like to ask for some guidance on how to get started. My goal is to gradually develop my own video game using Xcode and Reality Composer Pro. The idea is to create an educational game with 3D environments and elements, so I also want to learn programming, experience design, and 3D content creation as I progress ⭐️ At the moment, I don't have much money to afford to hire developers to mentor me or take expensive courses 😔( My mother is sick and all our resources and budget are focused on her and her treatment. ) but I do have something I think is very important: a strong desire to learn, time, and the willingness to study and practice. I don't expect someone else to do the project for me; I want to learn how to build it myself. My main question is: where should I begin? I already have experience playing Swift Playgrounds, and I find it fascinating 🤩 but I'm looking for the next step: I'd like to know what Apple concepts, courses, documentation, or resources you would recommend I study first to learn how to use Xcode and Reality Composer Pro correctly, especially with the Apple Developer tutorials. Which videos specifically do you recommend I study? If anyone started in a similar way or has experience developing apps or games with these tools, I would greatly appreciate any advice on a learning path. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for any guidance you can give me! You truly don't know what this means to me. Thank you so much. 🙏🚀

I’m seeing a reproducible UI bug with Spotlight on macOS 27 RC (26A428). The issue has been present since at least build 26A5416b (Developer Beta 6 / Public Beta 4), persisted through subsequent beta releases, and is still reproducible on RC 26A428. When I open Spotlight using the new Search or Ask interface and begin typing, the entered query text can become completely invisible from approximately the second character onward, even though Spotlight continues searching and displaying results normally. The interesting part is that the issue seems tied to Spotlight updating its search results. For example: Open Spotlight. Type a character that quickly matches something on the Mac. Continue typing. Once the results update, the query text becomes invisible. If I type random characters extremely quickly, before Spotlight has time to return a result for the first few characters, the text may remain visible. Another useful detail: after the query text disappears, pressing Delete/Backspace causes it to become visible again. The search itself is still functioning, the problem appears to be with rendering or state updates in the new Siri-integrated Spotlight query field, rather than with Spotlight search/indexing itself. I have reproduced this on macOS 27 RC build 26A428, including: a newly created macOS user account Safe Mode so it does not appear to be caused by user preferences, caches, login items, or third-party software. I submitted a screen recording through Feedback Assistant that clearly shows the text disappearing as results update. Feedback: FB24462893 Is anyone else seeing this on the RC? The correlation between the text disappearing and the results UI updating makes me suspect a rendering/state-update issue in the new Spotlight interface.

Hello, My app Printopia just made it to the App Store and by the looks of it I can’t search for it. I have to click on the link every time. Also the stripe gateway stopped working and I can’t add my bank account details when signing as a seller.

I submitted enhancement request FB24804559 for a system-wide scrolling screenshot feature in iOS. The idea is a “Capture More” option after taking a screenshot, similar to Android. iOS would continue capturing while scrolling, and the user could choose the exact endpoint. Ideally, this should work in any scrollable app where technically possible and save the result as one long image. This would be especially useful for Messages, Mail, Settings, social media, lists and other scrollable content.

Hi, I understand that users of mac OS 10 were notified that the Terminal default-shell had changed from Bash to zsh. I have not seen that message since. However, my current MacBookPro running OS26.6.2 has just popped up that old message: Last login: Tue Sep 15 17:42:23 on ttys000 The default interactive shell is now zsh. To update your account to use zsh, please run chsh -s /bin/zsh. For more details, please visit https://support.apple.com/kb/HT208050. MacBook-Pro:~ [My Name$] After all this time, should I be suspicious?

Dear Apple Developer Support, I submitted an Apple Developer Program enrollment (current Case ID: 102718117149). It has now been over a year. I have never reached the payment step, never received a rejection, and have never been asked to provide any additional materials. Contact history on file for this Case: Oct 9, 2025: Called Apple Developer Support Oct 16, 2025: Emailed Sep 7, 2026: Called Sep 8, 2026: Called and emailed Sep 11, 2026: Called again (advisor confirmed escalated to operations team — no substantive conclusion since) Current status at developer.apple.com/account: [填你页面现在显示的原话] After a full year with zero substantive feedback, I am formally requesting: The exact internal step where this application is blocked (identity verification / address review / region attribute / risk control / other). A complete list of what I need to provide — once, clearly, so I'm not guessing through repeated calls. Escalation to a supervisor or lead, with a written conclusion within 5–7 business days. If this cannot proceed, issue a formal rejection with the reason. I accept the conclusion — I just need to know why so I can reapply correctly. I am not asking for special treatment. I need one clear answer — what to supplement, approve, or reject — not another "please keep waiting." Phone: +86 15870012009 Best regards

I have a Mac Mini M4 with an LG 32" monitor. I have a 1 TB external SSD that I want to run Golden Gate beta. I was running both Sonoma on the M4 and Sonoma beta on the EHD. For some reason, maybe the beta required or did a firmware update, the M4 crashed with an amber light. Had to take the M4 into a Genius Bar to get reset. If I run Golden Gate on an EHD is there a possibility that I might run into a firmware issue? Is that possible? Any comments on the above and any tips on installing Golden Gate on the EHD? OT

I am facing a major roadblock trying to publish our esports platform, eGame Arena. My developer account enrollment has been stuck "In Review" for an extended period, and the system is completely frozen on the identity verification step.I have already completed all the requested steps, uploaded the official government-issued ID, and filled out the required information through the Apple Developer App. However, I have never received any confirmation email stating whether the identity verification was accepted, rejected, or if additional documents are needed.When checking my account status on the web portal, it simply displays a pending verification message with no action items or options to retry the submission. I have opened multiple support cases but only received automated responses, and our public launch schedule is heavily delayed because of this.Has anyone found a reliable way to force a re-upload, clear this stuck status, or successfully escalate an identity verification delay to a senior specialist?Any advice would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

While testing the watchOS 27 beta, I noticed that the standalone Walkie-Talkie app has been removed from the system. Walkie-Talkie has always been a great, lightweight way to stay connected. Much like Digital Touch, it’s one of those quick, low-friction features that makes the watch feel uniquely personal for communication throughout the day. I am really hoping its absence is just a temporary beta omission rather than a permanent retirement of the feature. I have already submitted a request via Feedback Assistant asking the engineering team to consider keeping it in the final release. If you also rely on this app for quick wrist-to-wrist updates, I highly recommend submitting your own feedback ticket to let the team know there is still an active user base for it. (FB23040695) Has anyone else ran into this or found an official note from Apple regarding its removal in the release notes? Hopefully, we will see it return before the public release this fall. Over and out!

In previous versions of macOS, I could drag a file from another application, such as an attachment in Mail, onto the Finder icon in the Dock. Finder would then expose available Finder windows, allowing me to continue holding the dragged file, move into the desired Finder window, navigate through folders using spring-loaded folder behavior, and ultimately drop the file into a nested destination. Are others seeing this?

Hi folks, I experience nausea and visual discomfort when looking at the screens on my Apple devices. However, I’ve noticed that this discomfort goes away when I switch to beta versions of iOS or macOS. While trying to narrow down the cause, I found that the following changes also eliminate my symptoms on the stable release of macOS: On my MacBook Pro, changing the display preset from “Apple XDR Display (P3-1600 nits)” to “Apple Display (P3-600 nits).” On my MacBook Air (M5, 15-inch), changing the color profile from “Color LCD” to “Display P3.” These observations make me wonder whether the issue could be related to gamma curves or how colors and brightness are rendered, though I’m not sure. On my iPhone, I haven’t found any display settings that provide similar relief. So far, switching to an iOS beta has been the only thing that helps. Has anyone experienced something similar? Could any display experts or Apple engineers offer insight into what might explain this, or suggest settings I could test? Thanks!
