Hi everyone, I subscribed to the Apple Developer Program on Tuesday afternoon, November 11th, 2025. The payment has already been charged to my bank account, but my account still shows the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership”. It’s now been several days, and I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information. I already contacted Apple Support by email, but I’d like to know if other developers have experienced the same situation and how long it took before their account was activated. Thanks in advance for your help and feedback! — Ramesh

I can't create a developer account. Setting to admin role does not work, follow the invite and then verify email, after that get shown a phone prompt, used every number I have that has SMS, or tried callbacks... { "service_errors" : [ { "code" : "-28248", "message" : "Verification codes can’t be sent to this phone number at this time. Please try again later.", "suppressDismissal" : false } ], "hasError" : true }

Hey, I'm already waiting for enrollment approval for more then 2 months. apple not communicate with me and not answer to my emails. I attache everything that was needed but they just disappear. is there a way to call them or something?

Hi, I paid for the developer program membership more than 2 days ago. Nothing is happening, though. I wrote to support twice, but nothing as well. What's going on? I read few posts here and it seems like a normal thing.

Hi everyone, I completed my Apple Developer registration on November 8, 2025, and paid the fee. Afterwards, I was charged another €99, so I basically paid twice. But nothing has changed on my account so far — it doesn’t even show as “pending” or “waiting” anymore. I also can’t reach Apple Support, since I’m unable to get a call or send an email. Has anyone else experienced something like this or knows what I can do?

My device with Device ID (00008130-001E35840483401C) is stuck in Processing state and cannot be activated. Please refresh or delete it.

There does not seem to be a good area of this forum to post this, so i just post it. I joined the developer program, i made a payment of 99 US dollars, the money was sent from my bank account to Apple.Com, it said on my developers account that it could take up to 48 hours to get things registered and i would be all set to go with the developers account after that. Well, the money is still gone, and 1-2 hours after i made the payment my account now asks me to Join the program, just like before i joined and made the payment. This was two days ago so i sent a message to apple about this, still no answer from them so i dont feel very happy about this, no way in h*** i am going to make a new payment to try to join again when i already did join and did not ever got my money back. Anyone had any similar issues or know what i should do next ?

This typo appears in a two docs I can find. Is there a better way to notify Apple about this, than making a post here> https://aninterestingwebsite.com/help/account/membership/program-enrollment/ https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/enterpriseprogramapi/users Also appears in some legacy docs, but that probably matters less: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/library/archive/documentation/LegacyTechnologies/WebObjects/WebObjects_4.0/System/Library/Frameworks/EOControl.framework/Resources/English.lproj/Documentation/Reference/Java/EOControl.Java.pdf

So I just managed to build one app for personal use that I want to use daily in my iphone. However, once installed in my device through XCode, after one week the application is no longer available. I'm aware about the one week trial for free users and one year for a paid account, but... for real? Isn't there an alternative? And if not... does it means that in order to use my app for let's say 5 years I will have to pay 500$? Is just a bit crazy to think about it but I did look on the internet and did not found a clear information about how this works. Thank you in advance :)

My app worked correctly using iOS 18. I tried to down grade back to iOS 18, but there are no signed ipsw file available. How can I down grade my iphone back to iOS 18?

I am trying to register for the Apple Developer Program, click “Enrollment,” select “Individual,” and get the following error: “Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time.” How can I fix this? What could be the problem?

Hello, I’m posting here to seek guidance or visibility regarding a delayed Apple Developer Program enrollment. I completed my organization enrollment over three weeks ago and provided a valid D-U-N-S number, which is correctly listed and verifiable. Since submitting the enrollment: The status has remained unchanged I’ve contacted Apple Developer Support three times via email I’ve received no response or timeline updates There is no option shown to request a phone call At this point, I’m unable to proceed with TestFlight, app distribution, or further development planning, and the lack of communication has made it difficult to understand next steps or expected timelines. If anyone from Apple Support or the community can advise: Whether this delay is expected If additional verification steps are required Or how best to escalate appropriately I’d really appreciate the guidance. Thank you for your time.

So i just started developing ios apps where i recently purchased macbook, i tried to create developer account got saying i cannot create the acount as of now.

Hello everyone, I recently contacted Apple Developer Support regarding access to an older iOS beta build (specifically iOS 26.0 Developer Beta 1, build 23A5260u for iPhone 15 Pro). Developer Support confirmed that they can’t provide access to previous betas and advised me to bring the question here. My question: Is there any official or supported method for developers to reinstall or access older, unsigned beta builds for the purpose of testing compatibility or debugging legacy features? I’m aware that Apple stops signing older versions once newer builds are released, but I’m wondering whether programs like AppleSeed, enterprise testing frameworks, or specific partner channels provide legitimate access to prior betas for regression or compatibility testing. Any insights or referrals to Apple contacts, teams, or individuals who may be able to advise on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Xavo Nizer

Hi Team, Its been 4 weeks and still my enrollment is reflecting in pending status. I want to set up my application and to do it we have to enroll for the development to give access to the the tech team to configure the application. I am not able to find the contact us info to raise the issue.

Hello, I recently paid for a $99 annual Apple Developer Program subscription, but I haven't received a payment receipt (I checked my spam folder). Where can I get an official receipt (invoice) for my payment? Thank you!

For iPhones 16 and below, orientation is applied in UIImage or CIImage, but not for iPhone 17. The camera is front-facing, and it uses Vision to capture facial images. Thanks for your help.

Hello, I am trying to call the StoreKit In-App API, but I am consistently receiving a 401 Unauthenticated error. Here is what I have done so far: JWT creation (via https://jwt.io): Header: { "alg": "ES256", "kid": "**********", "typ": "JWT" } Payload: { "iss": "********-e662-43d2-be42-012d0138ce39", "aud": "appstoreconnect-v1", "iat": 1757389187, "exp": 1757390987 } Private Key (.p8): -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- -----END PRIVATE KEY----- Algorithm used: ES256 This generates the JWT successfully. API Call: I then include the JWT in the request header as follows: Authorization: Bearer ************ Endpoint: https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/2000001003740262 Response: Status: 401 Unauthenticated Request ID: S3KCYHDVRMDKUT3TZVTY3QRRWM.0.0 Has anyone else faced this issue? Is there something incorrect with how I’m generating the JWT (e.g., iat/exp values, formatting, or encoding)? Do I need to generate separate keys for Sandbox and Production, or is the same key valid for both? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I want to create a verified Mobile Device Management (MDM) profile for Apple devices. As we are developing a solution to manage customer-owned Apple devices by remotely installing and managing an MDM configuration profile (both supervised and unsupervised way). Any documentation, enrollment prerequisites (such as Apple Business Manager or Developer Enterprise Program), and support you can provide in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

The posts I'm reading here are very discouraging. So many people trying to get into the program, even people that have paid and can't get any support. I've been an Apple developer for 15 years now. I've had various business developer accounts over the years. I've developed in my own name and for customers. This is the first time in a while that I had to get a new business developer account. I applied only a few days ago, so I'm not concerned yet but I don't know why this is so difficult. The posts that I'm reading her here are very discouraging. Why can't we get support on this? Very disappointing. What is happening to Apple? I'd like to get my account, and I'd like all these other people to get some help too. But this form looks completely abandoned.
