In a Playground in Xcode 27 beta 6 I don't see a way to make a new page. It used to be File->New->Playground Page. That menu item is missing. The keyboard shortcut still exists, but it produces an error "No valid file actions for insertion." Am I missing an alternative? Or is this no longer possible?

Hello, I am experiencing a serious issue with my Apple Developer Program enrollment and would appreciate help from Apple staff or anyone who has experienced the same situation. I enrolled as an Individual through the Apple Developer website and completed the €99 payment on August 8, 2026 at approximately 21:57 (Portugal time). Today is August 13, 2026, so five days have passed since the purchase. The situation is currently: Apple successfully created my €99 Apple Developer Program order. I received an official Apple Store email confirming that the order is being processed. The order has not been cancelled. I have received no refund. I have received no payment rejection. The Apple Store order page still shows the order as active and processing. The order page even displays a delivery-style progress bar with Processing → Preparing to Ship → Shipped → Delivered, although this is a digital Apple Developer Program membership. My Apple Developer account still shows “Pending”. The account page still displays “Purchase your membership” and “Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process”, even though the membership was already purchased five days ago. So Apple Store appears to have an active paid order, while the Apple Developer system behaves as if the membership has not been purchased. I contacted Apple Developer Support. Case ID: 20000133984820 The first response I received after waiting several days did not explain what happened to the existing payment or order. I was instead advised to resubmit the enrollment through the Apple Developer app. However, this does not answer the main issue: What happened to the existing €99 purchase, and why has it remained unresolved for five days? I also currently do not have access to an iPhone, iPad, or compatible Mac, so simply restarting the enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not a practical solution for me. The web enrollment is an officially supported enrollment method, and the purchase through that method has already been completed. I have replied to Developer Support requesting escalation and asking them to investigate: whether the €99 payment was successfully captured; whether the order is correctly linked to my enrollment; why the order is still being processed; whether any identity/payment verification is required; and whether the existing enrollment can be manually reviewed and activated. My application is ready for release, including real-device testing, and this unresolved enrollment is now directly blocking the launch. I am fully willing to complete any legitimate identity, address, or payment verification Apple requires. I am also available for a telephone call if Developer Support needs to verify any information. I am not looking for a workaround or a way to bypass verification. I simply need Apple to either process the enrollment I already paid for, tell me exactly what additional verification is required, or explain clearly what has happened to the existing payment/order. Has anyone recently experienced this exact situation — payment completed, order still processing, account Pending, and “Purchase your membership” still displayed after several days? If anyone from Apple Developer Relations sees this, I would greatly appreciate a review or escalation of Case ID 20000133984820. Thank you.

Im trying to enroll for Apple Developer Program. I get DUNS number mismatch even though I have registered as an organisation in D&B. How to resolve this issue

Apple Developer Program enrollment pending for one month despite payment I’m looking for advice or help regarding my Apple Developer Program enrollment. I completed the enrollment process and paid the full 12-month membership fee, but I still cannot access or use the Developer Program. The case has now been going back and forth for approximately one month. Apple Support previously stated that I would receive a response within two business days, but that timeframe has passed without any meaningful update. I have also followed up by email, but I have not received a resolution or a clear explanation of what is still required. My company is an Estonian OÜ, and I have provided the requested company and identity information. At this point, the delay is blocking the release and testing of our iOS application, even though the membership has already been paid in full. Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Is there an Apple representative or escalation channel that can review the enrollment and help move the case forward? I would appreciate it if someone from Apple could reach out and assist with the case.

Is anyone else having issues uploading an archive to App Store Connect? I went to validate an archive of my app, and seems to hang during validation. I've tried just validating the app, and tried Transporter as well. It hangs on the analyzing app. How to troubleshoot?

Hi everyone, I paid US$99 (still amunt not deducted) for the Apple Developer Program and received an email saying my order would be processed within 2 business days. It has now been 4 days, but my membership is still not active. Can anyone please advise what I should do or how I can check the status? Thank you!

Hello, I’m trying to create an iOS TestFlight build for an Expo/EAS app on Windows. The project is configured with: Expo SDK 57 EAS CLI 24.1.0 iOS bundle ID: com.i3radleyy.flooriq Apple Developer Program: active individual membership Apple Team ID: R7GLN64JYP The Bundle ID is registered in Apple Developer The app record exists in App Store Connect I am the Account Holder The Expo configuration command succeeds and reports the correct bundle ID. EAS project initialisation also succeeds. However, when running the production build, Apple authentication fails after the Apple ID and password are accepted: Authentication with Apple Developer Portal failed! Failed to set up credentials. iTunes service key is empty Error: build command failed. I have also tried: EAS_NO_VCS=1 EXPO_NO_KEYCHAIN=1 Git is not being used, and the project is being built from the correct app directory. The Apple Developer account and App Store Connect pages are accessible in the browser, and the Bundle ID is registered. Is this a known EAS/Apple authentication issue on Windows? Is there a recommended way to provide the Apple signing credentials or use an App Store Connect API key so that EAS can create the iOS distribution certificate and provisioning profile? Thank you.

Question: Is there a recommended workflow for using Xcode's agent chat, given its current UI limitations? Context: I can't view my source code / project settings and the agent chat at the same time — it's one or the other. Worse, if I start typing in the chat bubble and then switch views to copy some text from my code, whatever I'd typed in the bubble gets lost. This makes even simple tasks painful. For example, the agent can't modify project settings directly while a chat is open, so I end up trying to follow a long list of setup instructions from the chat while constantly toggling to the settings view to actually make each change — it's a nightmare. Because of this, I end up doing anything non-trivial in VS Code with the command line instead, which is ironic since VS Code isn't even my first choice for SwiftUI work. I'm using version 27RC, so I'm starting to worry that this is the final design.

I am using Xcode 27 beta 3 Device Hub with iPadOS Simulator. The iPadOS app I'm developing supports a standard two finger pinch/unpinch gesture to zoom in and out. In Xcode 26 Simulator, I could hold down the option key to zoom in and out with a two finger multitouch gesture. How can I effect a two finger multitouch zoom gesture with Xcode 27 beta 3 Device Hub iPadOS Simulator? I tried holding down the option key, which did not work. I tried using a macOS two finger multitouch pinch/unpinch zoom gesture, but this did not work. I've spent about 30 minutes investigating this, searching through Device Hub Settings and macOS Settings and exploring different permutations of options and reading Xcode 27 beta release notes. The Option key worked great in Xcode 26 iPadOS Simulator. I'd appreciate any assistance that an Apple Engineer could provide. Thank you.

My app relies on two-finger tap for some interactions. This was easy in the old simulator by holding down option while clicking. Is there an equivalent interaction in Device Hub? (Option-click no longer seems to work.) If not, will this be added back in a future beta?

My question is how to pinch in and out in Device Hub. I can't find that function. I'm on a Macbook. Thanks.

Hello Apple Developer Community, I am posting here because I have exhausted the official support channels and I am now stuck in a support loop with no clear path to resolution. My Apple Developer Program enrollment issue has been ongoing since August 12, 2026. My $99 membership payment was successfully processed, I received an official Apple invoice, and Developer Support initially confirmed in writing that my membership was “successfully purchased and activated” with the status “Processed.” Shortly afterward, however, I was informed that my enrollment could not be completed. Since then, I have opened multiple Developer Support cases and sent multiple follow-ups. Developer Support subsequently marked my issue as: “It looks like this issue is related to your Apple Account.” and directed me to getsupport.apple.com. I followed that instruction. I contacted Apple Support directly, completed Apple Account verification, and received an Apple Support case documenting that interaction. Apple Support then advised me that the Apple Developer Program enrollment issue is outside their scope and must be handled by Apple Developer Support. I returned to Developer Support and opened an escalation case. Now that latest Developer Support case has also been redirected back to Apple Support with exactly the same message: “It looks like this issue is related to your Apple Account.” So I am currently stuck in this loop: Developer Support → Apple Support → Apple Account verified → Apple Support refers me back to Developer Support → Developer Support redirects me to Apple Support again. I completely understand that account-specific matters cannot be reviewed publicly on the forums, and I am not asking anyone here to review or activate my account. I am asking a different question: What is the official escalation path when Developer Support repeatedly redirects a case to Apple Support, while Apple Support confirms that the issue must be handled by Developer Support? If there is a specific Apple Account issue, I simply need Developer Support to tell me what that issue is and what Apple Support needs to do, rather than redirecting me without any actionable information. This has now been unresolved for approximately one month, despite payment, multiple support cases, follow-ups, and completion of Apple Account verification. Is there a way to request an internal escalation, Senior Advisor review, Enrollment/Membership specialist, or Developer Support callback for this type of situation? Any guidance on the correct official escalation path would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello I cannot seem to get past the final step in pairing my Ultra Watch 3 to Xcode 27 RC1.. I have tried this on a Mac Mini M4 and a Mac M1.. Both Macs are running 26.6.2 In both cases, XCode seems my iPhone and I am able to deploy to that physical iPhone. I have my iPhone connected via a USB cable. When going into Developer Mode on the watch and then opening up the "Pair Nearby Device" in Device Hub, I can see either my M1 or my M4 (depending on which one is trying to connect), I can select it, it asks for a pass code and then asks me to pair. When I do, it simply returns back to the previous screen asking if I'd like to pair again.. Any ideas ?

I am unable to download and install the iOS Simulator runtime in Xcode 26.6. Environment: MacBook Air with Apple silicon macOS Tahoe 26.6 Xcode 26.6 Build version 17F113 xcode-select -p: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer xcodebuild -showsdks correctly reports: Simulator - iOS 26.5 -sdk iphonesimulator26.5 However: xcrun simctl list runtimes returns: == Runtimes == No Simulator runtime is installed. In: Xcode > Settings > Components I attempted to install: iOS 26.5.1 + iOS 26.5 Simulator but it remains at: Preparing... for a very long time without actually downloading the runtime. I also tried: xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS This eventually failed with: Download was cancelled exit code 70 I also tried: xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads/XcodePlatforms The destination directory remains at 0 bytes. Checks already completed: More than 860 GiB free disk space Mac restarted Xcode quit and reopened xcode-select points to the correct Xcode installation /etc/hosts contains no Apple blocking entries gdmf.apple.com resolves correctly HTTPS connectivity to gdmf.apple.com works Apple MobileAsset / software update services are running iOS Simulator SDK itself is installed correctly The project can compile for iphonesimulator26.5, but Simulator execution and tests are blocked because no runtime can be installed. Questions: Is this a known issue with Xcode 26.6? Is there an official alternative way to download the iOS Simulator runtime? Can I install an earlier supported iOS Simulator runtime instead? Is there a MobileAsset or Xcode cache reset procedure recommended by Apple? Thank you.

Hello, I got the problem when trying to enroll my account to be Developer. It said: Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time. How can I fix this? Thanks

I am posting this because I have exhausted every internal channel over the past month and have not received substantive answers to basic questions about the release of my earned proceeds. Timeline: July 2026 — An IP complaint was filed against my app. Apple opened an investigation. July 29, 2026 — I voluntarily removed the app from sale in all 175 territories before Apple asked me to. I also changed the app name, icon, tagline, screenshots, and website. August 4, 2026 — Apple's App Store Notices team closed the matter, writing: "We trust this resolves your concerns and consider this matter closed at this time." August 11, 2026 — I received a Pending Termination Notice citing Section 3.2(f) for the same issue that was closed one week earlier. August 12, 2026 — A member of Apple's App Store Notices team confirmed by email: "Our team did not initiate any action against your account." August 13, 2026 — App Review Board rejected my appeal. The team that investigated the matter for a month closed it as resolved. A different team terminated my account for the same issue seven days later. I have documented correspondence from both teams confirming these facts. Regarding earned proceeds: App Store Connect currently shows approximately $43,000 USD and €857 EUR in earned proceeds marked as "Balance Carried Forward." These are from completed transactions by real customers who purchased subscriptions and received the service they paid for. The refund rate was low and no chargebacks were filed. I have contacted iTunes Finance, Developer Support, and Apple Executive Relations. iTunes Finance stated on August 28 that the account is under review for "irregular activity" but has not responded to three separate requests asking what documentation is needed to complete that review. My questions for the community and any Apple representatives: Has anyone experienced a situation where Apple Legal closed an IP matter and then App Review terminated the account for the same issue? What is the standard process and timeline for the release of earned proceeds after account termination? Apple's agreement (Schedule 2, Section 7.1) provides for a temporary hold period to cover refunds and chargebacks, but does not appear to authorize indefinite retention. Has anyone successfully received their earned proceeds after termination, and how long did it take? Is there a specific team within Apple that handles the release of earned proceeds separately from the account termination decision? I have submitted multiple appeals through the App Review Board form, Developer Support has filed an appeal on my behalf, and I have submitted a detailed improvement plan with specific compliance commitments. I have also offered to provide full identity verification and to convert to an Organization account. I am not asking the community to take sides on the termination itself. I am asking for practical information about the proceeds release process, because Apple's internal teams have not provided it despite repeated requests over the past month.

To explore leaks, I followed several calls now I can't return to the root. I tried all the possible hotkeys and menu items.

is there a way to use codeberg (or self-hosted but not bitbucket server) with Xcode? I can't find a way of configuring additional account types in Source Control settings (Xcode 26/27)

I am unable to accept the Apple Developer Agreement. Every attempt fails server-side with the same error. A request is already open with Apple Developer Program Support (case 102955759789); I am posting here in parallel because the failure looks like a data problem on the account record that support may need internal help to reach. What happens: On https://developer.apple.com/register/agree/?path=%2Faccount%2F I click Agree. The POST to /services-register/registerDeveloper (payload: agreementId plus receiveEmails) returns HTTP 200 with: resultCode: 25000 resultString: "DS internal exception occurred. ErrorCode: -21050 ErrorMessage: state province cd should not be greater than 32" responseId: 08447485-8e67-447e-a316-7c520926ed1a creationTimestamp: 2026-09-07T14:17:00Z The same error appears in the UI as a modal dialog, and also occurs in the Apple Developer app for macOS. What I have already checked: Reproducible in a private window and across browsers, so it is not a cached-session issue. The request body contains no address data, so there is nothing malformed on the client side. The rejected value appears to already be stored on the account record. I am signing in with a Managed Apple Account provisioned by my organisation. I cannot inspect or correct my address myself: account.apple.com returns UnsupportedAccountTypeForWeb_IsManagedAppleId for the personal information section. Access to Apple Developer Program resources has already been granted for my account in Apple Business Manager. My organisation has an active Apple Developer Program membership as an organisation. I only need to join the existing team, not to enrol. Apple Developer Program Support case 102955759789 is open, with no resolution so far. My questions: Which field on the account record does "state province cd" map to for a Managed Apple Account — the address of the assigned Apple Business Manager location, or an attribute synced from our identity provider? Knowing this would let our administrator fix the source instead of guessing. Given that the value cannot be edited by the user on a managed account, can this record be corrected on Apple's side, or case 102955759789 escalated to the Developer Program team? Thanks.
