Hello, I've developed an application using Electron with JAVACRIPT. I have managed to deploy to both Windows and the web but having trouble deploying the application to my Mac users. It's my first time deploying an application for Mac but feel like I'm stuck at the last hurdle and out of ideas so I'm reaching out for help. My application is successfully signing but during the build and when my Notarize.js is running it seems to get stuck indefinitely. I can check and see the status of the Notarize attempts but they seem to be stuck "In Progress". Here are the logs. Successfully received submission history. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-06T00:59:45.245Z id: 1dc39b5f-fdca-4bf2-a6f6-fa793de2786e name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-04T08:01:36.168Z id: c575b015-edd6-4e09-8da5-7ae09f4f67db name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T08:30:31.528Z id: 570ae540-8cce-4418-ab09-7f6be33dc245 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T07:57:56.701Z id: 42748de8-026a-4663-9fd2-88c7608588d3 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T06:30:19.569Z id: 5140caa0-df14-491a-b148-82015f9856da name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T05:56:28.916Z id: 535c6be1-4999-4b3e-9766-42512a8deb67 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T02:51:04.893Z id: ead2268c-62b2-4b4b-8850-c1cdb5313d6a name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T01:50:51.954Z id: d0c44281-a788-4704-a057-4620d284516d name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T00:48:54.445Z id: 3d13727c-06a3-49d7-902b-4001522107c3 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T13:35:26.715Z id: 1823a550-a9ff-467a-8a60-dd3e42305258 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T13:23:41.894Z id: cbc341a2-9a51-43d6-83ae-713443c84fec name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T12:21:44.561Z id: 1af34419-655f-49b8-bea0-05b4232c46a7 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:34:03.732Z id: 8c4ab3b5-2ea9-4220-9667-94011bcf76fb name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:19:16.052Z id: 093dfb8a-9058-417d-acd3-8ea5d0bb654a name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:13:14.676Z id: 556b7c1c-d114-4717-b0f7-4f1614ada845 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T10:52:36.834Z id: ce3d3c8a-d218-4978-8757-2ca9d12aad76 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:27:13.535Z id: b65ec764-baab-444d-809b-e4242d70548b name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:27:01.176Z id: be228acc-e6a2-48f2-937b-5b2962275052 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:19:19.182Z id: d99fc10b-c424-4d0c-a2aa-37a9e9165d91 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T08:55:43.064Z id: 2e7f8df7-9c0b-4dd0-8df7-8f3428c0bfa0 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T08:19:48.676Z id: 678355da-e413-4b1a-92a8-776a6ff6a055 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:58:48.278Z id: 8591f8d7-1d57-4e80-af90-d77190160a20 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:54:41.193Z id: f029dfeb-3f14-4f65-83e2-d9356ef6ac00 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:27:50.613Z id: 574f2563-d533-4885-947a-2f57170196af name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:09:54.203Z id: 589f7f3a-d231-4911-8ad6-9d2c15a61ac0 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T05:39:02.574Z id: 9edd43de-6d14-4743-87fc-ab570bee7399 name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T04:36:12.342Z id: ba02116d-1aad-4521-8667-ad086b14c1cb name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T03:22:49.185Z id: b8585c81-b7f5-4c35-9bd6-62157c6ce4bc name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress

Hello everyone, I’m trying to notarize my macOS app (DockIt.zip) using the new notarytool CLI, but every submission remains in In Progress status forever, it never moves to Accepted or Rejected.

I've been successfully notarizing my apps for a year or so now, with intermittent releases every so often, usually succeeding with notarization in a couple of minutes. These apps are all written in Python, but I worked through all the jank required to get them to notarize cleanly a while ago and have no issues since. Today I submitted a couple of builds which have been stuck for hours. They're just "in progress", so no logs I can look at, no emails or anything on my developer account page. How can I begin to debug this? Successfully received submission info createdDate: 2025-06-24T18:43:37.140Z id: 8d1a1ca9-f0ad-426f-a714-89aaf9e01a07 name: pinpal-2025.6.25.for-notarizing.app.zip status: In Progress I should note that in addition to the comment added within 10 minutes of creation of this issue, within the last day, we also have: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/789389 https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/789599 https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/789995 So it seems pretty likely something is going on on the backend.

I'm building a custom macOS installer for my software, primarily using the builtin tools of codesign, pkgbuild, productbuild and xcrun. My product consist of a list of plugins and a CEP extension for the Adobe After Effect app. All of my bundles and binaries are properly signed using a trusted Apple Developer certificate I've generated, of type Developer ID Application. My installer is a "distribution" pkg, and has this structure(expanding it using pkgutil --expand): SceneTools-3.4.4-osx-installer ├── Distribution ├── miscellaneous.pkg ├── plugins.aftereffects2022.pkg ├── plugins.aftereffects2023.pkg ├── plugins.aftereffects2024.pkg ├── plugins.aftereffects2025.pkg ├── preinstall.pkg ├── Resources ├── scenebuilder.pkg └── uninstaller.pkg Each "child" pkg would install parts of my product in different locations in the target macOS disk(this is why I'm using that kind of style of building the custom installer). Signing each and every bundle or binary of my product, signing the "child" pkg's, then notarizing them works well with no issues, in addition signing the "final" "distribution" using productbuild --sign option also works well, but when trying to notarize the "final" pkg, the notary service fails with this error: { "logFormatVersion": 1, "jobId": "5fb38df9-ef97-4bd3-955e-7783c37ac4a8", "status": "Invalid", "statusSummary": "Archive contains critical validation errors", "statusCode": 4000, "archiveFilename": "SceneTools-3.4.4-osx-installer.pkg", "uploadDate": "2025-06-26T14:14:41.507Z", "sha256": "621de5d887b06ad11214255c6e91ebd9eeffb18ad8f940365f4539bd1902fe9a", "ticketContents": null, "issues": [ { "severity": "error", "code": null, "path": "SceneTools-3.4.4-osx-installer.pkg", "message": "Package SceneTools-3.4.4-osx-installer.pkg has no signed executables or bundles.

I tried various ways of working-around this issue, like: Notarizing the dmg that contains this final pkg - worked, but when opening the pkg, GateKeeper blocks the users from opening it. Wrapping the pkg inside an .app and notarizing the .app - same as above. What am I doing wrong? Does those kind of pkg like my "final" pkg aren't meant to be notarized? if so - how can I solve this GateKeeper blocks? Should I build my final pkg in a different way?

Hello Apple Support, While attempting to staple a notarization ticket for our signed installer package, the stapler command fails with Error 65. Upon investigation, we found that connections to oscdn.apple.com present an SSL certificate issued to a248.e.akamai.net, which does not include oscdn.apple.com in its Subject Alternative Name (SAN). This mismatch prevents our macOS environment from validating tickets and completing the stapling process. Steps tried: Verified notarization status (Accepted). DNS flushed, tried different DNS (8.8.8.8, 1.1.1.1). curl to oscdn.apple.com consistently fails with SSL error 60. Please advise on resolving this certificate mismatch. also when I try to run the stapler command with my pkg "xcrun stapler staple/Users/mactest/Desktop/IPMPlus_Macos_Installer.signed.pkg" getting the output like :- Processing: /Users/mactest/Desktop/IPMPlus_Macos_Installer.signed.pkg Could not validate ticket for /Users/mac-test/Desktop/IPMPlus_Macos_Installer.signed.pkg The staple and validate action failed! Error 65. please help Thank you.

Hi everyone, I’ve just subscribed and configured my Apple Developer account. I tried to notarize the first binary I need to distribute via Homebrew, but I’m experiencing an issue where the process has been stuck in “In Progress” status for more than 21 hours, without completing or returning any errors. Here’s the relevant history: createdDate: 2025-10-15T21:53:41.343Z status: In Progress

Hello, I am new to the apple developer program. I, and my team, are working on porting some medical software that we have written from Windows to MacOS. We obviously want to notarize our app to make it easy for professionals and colleagues to use. The software is entirely written in python and includes ffmpeg for one of the features to export the medical data to video and compiled to a single file with pyinstaller, like so: pyinstaller app_name.py --noconfirm --onefile --add-data "ffmpeg:ffmpeg" chmod +x dist/app_name* We are currently adding the signing and notarization of the app to our github workflow. The workflow build a successful app with the correct structure and is able to be run if we allow it past the MacOS firewall. We are signing the app like so: run: | BINARY_PATH="dist/app_name" IDENTITY=$(security find-identity -p codesigning -v | grep -E 'Developer ID Application|Mac Developer' | head -n1 | awk -F\" '{print $2}') echo "Using identity: $IDENTITY" security unlock-keychain -p "" build.keychain codesign --verbose=4 --force --options runtime --timestamp --entitlements .github/mac_build_tools/entitlements.plist --sign "$IDENTITY" "$BINARY_PATH" codesign --verify --verbose=4 "$BINARY_PATH" We then also move the binary around into an app structure and sign that as well like so echo "Moving contents to SedPlot.app" mkdir -p dist/app_name.app/Contents/MacOS mv "$BINARY_PATH" dist/app_name.app/Contents/MacOS cp .github/mac_build_tools/Info.plist dist/app_name.app/Contents echo -n "APPL????" > dist/app_name.app/Contents/PkgInfo echo "Signing App" codesign --verbose=4 --force --options runtime --timestamp --entitlements .github/mac_build_tools/entitlements.plist --sign "$IDENTITY" dist/app_name.app codesign --verify --verbose=4 dist/app_name.app codesign --display --entitlements :- dist/app_name.app If I upload the artifact and check its properties, everything looks good. It has the correct ID associated with it and shows as valid when I use codesign --verify on it. I start having issues when I move onto notarization, like so: cd dist echo "Zipping and checking the zip" ditto -c -k --keepParent app_name.app app_name.zip zipinfo -1 app_name.zip | head echo "$AC_API_KEY" > AuthKey.p8 SUBMISSION_ID=$(xcrun notarytool submit app_name.zip \ --key AuthKey.p8 \ --key-id "$AC_KEY_ID" \ --issuer "$AC_ISSUER_ID" \ --team-id "TEAM_ID" \ --output-format json | jq -r '.id') echo "Submitted notarization with ID: $SUBMISSION_ID" All of the print statements for errors look good at this point, and the submission ID shows up in my history when I query it. However, all 7 attempts that I have made to notarize this app hang for indefinite amounts of time. We are hoping to submit our tool for publication soon, and it would be helpful to know if there is an issue causing the hang on our end or if this is an issue with new developers. I have been reading around the forums and see some notes about this taking about a week until the system start to "learn" about our development team and our attempts to notarize. I also know that there is limited amounts that can be said about the backend of the notarizations step. What would be helpful is a few things: I would like feedback about if there is a fundamental flaw in our approach for signing and notarizing our application, so that we can identify it. I would appreciate some guidelines about how long to expect this notarization step to take until we can get notarization to finish within 10s of minutes, as we have a hard-coded 30 min wait time for the completion of the notarization in our workflow right now. It would be helpful to know how to check our logs, as requesting the logs for any of our attempts results in being told that the logs are not available yet. In case someone from apple is interested in this and wants to check, the most-recent submission ID (the one that I believe should be most-likely correct and valid) is 9ef24966-42a5-47db-a7e0-c6baf0310ac4 Thank you in advance!

Hi, This is my first time notarizing an app with Developer ID. I have submitted multiple notarization requests, and all of them have been stuck in "In Progress" status. The oldest one was submitted over 24 hours ago. Is this normal for first-time submissions? How long should I wait before contacting support? Thanks!

I've been trying to have an app I've built notarized by Apple. The processing hangs there for hours just waiting. I even tried with a tiny 1KB test file, it has been stuck for 25+ minutes, and I have 7 real submissions stuck for 24+ hours. Any Apple representative can help please? I need to publish and release my app asap.

I'm currently observing a problem similar to this thread https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/737334 The difference is that this is happening after updating a system extension. Basically same error, sysextd complains it can not check that the system extension is notarized: macOS Error 3 + Error code=-67050. I think macOS (Sequoia 15.3.2 or 15.7.2 if it matters) is wrong in this case for the following reasons: when using spctl assess -t install, the system extension is reported to be correctly notarized. when restarting the Mac, the updated system extension is correctly checked and staged. if I run spctl assess before sysextd tries to check the system extension, it works. I'm currently thinking of 2 reasons why the check does not work: sysextd is somehow trying to work with a cached assessment that has become invalid after the system extension was updated. macOS needs way more time between the update of the files and the request to update the staged extension. I tried adding a 5-second delay. This does not seem to work or at least reliably. I tried just touching the system extension, no positive result. Unfortunately, in macOS Sequoia, it is not possible anymore to reset-default using spctl and see if it solves the issue, at least the next time the update is performed. [Q] Is there some magic operation that would help macOS correctly check the notarization of an updated system extension?

In an AppleScript applet, compiling and exporting in Script Editor replaces a custom icon with the default. To retain a custom icon, it is necessary, after exporting, to use Finder's "Get info..." to copy the icon from another file and paste into the icon for the applet. The custom icon is stored in the "Icon?" file, located in the root of the applet bundle. The applet can then be signed and notarized. With macOS Tahoe, that procedure no longer works. That is because the notarization process now wipes the "Icon?" file. The file remains in place but has zero size. Thus Finder shows the default applet icon. Does anyone know of a way to provide a custom icon for a signed and notarized AppleScript applet ?

I have two Macs, desktop and laptop. Since they both belong to me, they both sign in with the same Apple account. I find that if I sign and notarize an app on one, the other must be powered off. Otherwise, notarization will fail. Is this intentional? If so, what is the rationale? Is there a way to fix or avoid it? Both systems run macOS Tahoe with the latest updates. Both are set up the same way for signing using the same certificates. The build process is identical on each.

We are experiencing notarization submissions that remain in the “In Progress” state for an extended period (over 24 hours), with no status transition and no submission log available. This is occurring in an automated CI environment using the Notary REST API (non-interactive submission and polling). Re-submitting the same package only results in additional submissions also stuck in “In Progress”. There does not appear to be any API mechanism to cancel, clear, or expire these submissions once they are created. We have already opened an Apple Developer Support case regarding this issue (Case ID: 102818066745 & 102819008943), but have not yet received clarification on what is causing these long-running “In Progress” states. This issue is impacting our production release pipeline, as we are unable to reliably complete notarization for signed packages within an expected timeframe. Based on other reports in this forum (including thread 811968), this behavior appears similar to cases where notarization requests were delayed due to backend backlog or in-depth analysis. We would appreciate clarification on the following: Is it expected behavior for notarization submissions to remain in “In Progress” for such a long period without logs? Is client-side timeout and re-submission the recommended handling for CI workflows? Are there known service-side conditions (e.g. analysis backlog) that could explain this behavior? Any guidance from Apple DTS or others who have encountered this would be greatly appreciated.

I'm distributing a macOS .pkg installer signed with Developer ID Installer and notarized via notarytool. On macOS 26.3 (Tahoe, Build 25D125), the package is rejected by Gatekeeper when downloaded from the internet. What works: pkgutil --check-signature → signed, Developer ID Installer, full chain (G2 intermediate + Apple Root CA) xcrun stapler validate → "The validate action worked!" xcrun notarytool info <id> → status: Accepted The .app inside the .pkg passes spctl -a -vvv → "accepted, source=Notarized Developer ID" What fails: spctl -a -vvv --type install mypackage.pkg → rejected, origin=Developer ID Installer Raw assessment: assessment:remote = true, assessment:verdict = false Double-clicking the downloaded .pkg shows only "Move to Trash" / "Done" (no "Open" option) syspolicyd log: meetsDeveloperIDLegacyAllowedPolicy = 0 (expected, since the cert is new), but no "notarized" match is logged Certificate details: Developer ID Installer, issued Feb 28, 2026, valid until 2031 OID 1.2.840.113635.100.6.1.14 (Developer ID Installer) — critical OID 1.2.840.113635.100.6.1.33 — timestamp 20260215000000Z Intermediate: Developer ID Certification Authority G2 (OID 1.2.840.113635.100.6.2.6) security verify-cert → certificate verification successful Build process: productbuild --distribution ... --sign <SHA1> (also tried productsign) Both produce: Warning: unable to build chain to self-signed root xcrun notarytool submit → Accepted xcrun stapler staple → worked Workaround: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ~/Downloads/mypackage.pkg allows opening the installer. Question: Is spctl --type install assessment expected to work differently on macOS 26 Tahoe? The same signing and notarization workflow produces .app bundles that pass Gatekeeper, but .pkg installers are rejected. Is there a new requirement for .pkg distribution on macOS 26? Environment: macOS 26.3 (25D125), Xcode CLT 26.3

From what I can tell, it seems that this is something standard that we have to deal with; however, what is annoying and frustrating is I paid good money to have this service work. My application is for important internal use at our company, and this is causing major issues and starting to make me look pretty bad, frankly. On top of that, there is no feedback at all, no reason given. Notarizing darwin binaries... Conducting pre-submission checks for aria.zip and initiating connection to the Apple notary service...

During the release of our macOS App, we encountered the following issue: We need to support dynamic code loading of WebAssembly (wasm) inside our App, mainly by loading WebAssembly (wasm) binary modules. We discovered a problem: a wasm file is neither an executable nor a bundle, so it cannot be code-signed. Since our App needs to pass notarization, we have not set the com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory entitlement. Without setting com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory, loading a wasm module results in an “unsigned code” error that causes the process to crash. Could you please advise on what we should do to avoid this problem? Is it possible to apply for a special entitlement to allow com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory?

Hello, We are experiencing an issue with the notarization queue and would appreciate your assistance. A few days ago, we helped another team submit their app for notarization. However, that submission has been stuck in the “In Progress” state for about three days now. Unfortunately, this also seems to have caused our own team’s notarization requests to get stuck as well. We ran the following command to review the submission history: xcrun notarytool history --apple-id "xxx" --team-id "xxx" --password "xxx" Successfully received submission history. Partial results: id: 0bafa66f-4f47-4327-811f-a05481be5d0b status: In Progress id: 2d00b75a-a17a-44fc-afa1-71e0e39ec2cd status: In Progress It appears that one of these belongs to another team’s app we helped submit, and the other is our own submission. Both have remained In Progress for several days, and we are now unable to proceed with any new notarization requests. Could you please help us clear or reset the stuck notarization queue so we can continue our submissions? Thank you very much for your help!

Hello, I've been developing a mac app built with Electron Builder. In August, I was successfully notarizing my app and able to send it to testers without them receiving a malware warning. I took a two month break. When I came back in October, I am not able to distribute my app without the malware warning. I can't for the life of me figure out what I could be missing, unless my developer account was flagged by Apple for some reason. All the diagnostics I run on my app package show that it is properly signed, notarized, and stapled. Here are some diagnostics I have run on the app: Command: codesign -dv --verbose=4 "/Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app" Output: Executable=/Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app/Contents/MacOS/Form Identifier=co.Form.desktop Format=app bundle with Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20500 size=763 flags=0x10000(runtime) hashes=13+7 location=embedded VersionPlatform=1 VersionMin=720896 VersionSDK=917504 Hash type=sha256 size=32 CandidateCDHash sha256=cedcaef933c003c01b4d9ef6925a413fe6b4a585 CandidateCDHashFull sha256=cedcaef933c003c01b4d9ef6925a413fe6b4a585bf61e19751e8158775600b00 Hash choices=sha256 CMSDigest=cedcaef933c003c01b4d9ef6925a413fe6b4a585bf61e19751e8158775600b00 CMSDigestType=2 Executable Segment base=0 Executable Segment limit=16384 Executable Segment flags=0x1 Page size=4096 CDHash=cedcaef933c003c01b4d9ef6925a413fe6b4a585 Signature size=8973 Authority=Developer ID Application: Jacob LEELAND (92D98F49FU) Authority=Developer ID Certification Authority Authority=Apple Root CA Timestamp=Nov 14, 2025 at 8:25:09 PM Notarization Ticket=stapled Info.plist entries=30 TeamIdentifier=92D98F49FU Runtime Version=14.0.0 Sealed Resources version=2 rules=13 files=35090 Internal requirements count=1 size=176 RESULT: ✅ SIGNED WITH DEVELOPER ID ✅ NOTARIZATION TICKET STAPLED ✅ HARDENED RUNTIME ENABLED ---------------------------------------------------------------- Command: spctl --assess --verbose=4 --type execute "/Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app" Output: /Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app: accepted source=Notarized Developer ID RESULT: ✅ GATEKEEPER ACCEPTS APPLICATION ---------------------------------------------------------------- Command: xattr -l "/Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app" Output: (No extended attributes) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Command: stapler validate "/Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app" Output: Processing: /Volumes/Form Desktop 1/Form.app The validate action worked!

I have tried notarizing the .dmg in addition to the app bundle, but no combination seems to work as far as I can tell. I appreciate any help or point in the right direction. I've wasted many days of development time on this, lol.

The process has been stuck "In Progress" for 8 days now. We had a scheduled New Year Offer for our software that would run based around this important new update, and obviously we missed it because of this crazy issue. Notarization used to take a few seconds. Now it does not work, neither on my newly set up Mac, nor in my old (completely unchanged) one. My company and finances are totally frozen at this point due to this issue. PLEASE help, look into my actual account and do what is needed!
