My Apple developer certificates(4 certificates) expire soon. I'm developing an application for iOS but the application is not yet released in the App Store, only Testflight releases for private testing. Is it necessary to create 4 new certificates or can I edit the current certificates so that they don't expire soon?

I use CMake for my builds not the XCode GUI. I want to be able to build a single .app that contains both the GUI version and the command line version. I have seen products that ship both as part of the same .app (e.g. CMake) so this is clearly entirely possible, the 64k question is HOW? Right now I am building them as separate apps - lets call them DSS and DSSCL (*). The code base for each is in its own directory - each with its own CMakelists.txt file. My initial thoughts are to change the build for DSSCL so it doesn't create a bundle and then simply copy the DSSCL command and related .qm files into DSS.app/.../MacOS. However that's likely enough totally wrong, so how should I handle this please. As much detail as possible please, I am very new to macOS development -please don't assume knowledge of stuff that's second nature to you Many thanks David (*) Strictly they are DeepSkyStacker and DeepSkyStackerCL

Hi Guys, I want to support my client for enable the developer mode, But they not accept to connect with any other devices(Mac Xcode) to enable developer mode. They are nearly 10 people to enable developer mode. But I think without mac we can't enable developer mode in some of devices. So I need a clarification with IOS versions. That's only we are excepting to list out which IOS versions don't have developer mode option default. Please list out that IOS versions Like below: default developer mode available IOS 17.4.1 default developer mode not available IOS 17.5.1

I have an Xcode project setup as follows: 3 static libraries 1 framework target, whose Mach-O type is set to Dynamic Library main app target (iOS app) The target dependencies are as follows: In framework's build phase [Link with libraries], I have the 3 libs statically linked. In the main app's build phase [Link with libraries], I have only the framework, which is dynamically linked. As per my understanding: The libs are statically linked to the framework. So, the framework binary would contain code from all the libs. The framework is dynamically linked to the main app (iOS app in this case). So, the main app's binary only has a reference to the framework's binary, which would be loaded in the memory at runtime. Assuming my understanding is correct, I'm stuck with the following problem: All 3 libs build successfully The framework builds successfully The main app target doesn't build. The compilation is successful, but the build fails with linker errors. Please let me know if I am doing something incorrectly, or if a configuration is missing. Below are more details: The linker gives the following error: Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: "StringUtils.GetStr() -> Swift.String", referenced from: dynamic_fw.AppDelegate.application(_: __C.UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: [__C.UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey : Any]?) -> Swift.Bool in AppDelegate.o "TWUtils.GetNum() -> Swift.Int", referenced from: dynamic_fw.AppDelegate.application(_: __C.UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: [__C.UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey : Any]?) -> Swift.Bool in AppDelegate.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture arm64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) And the command shown in the logs for linking phase is: Ld /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.app/dynamic-fw normal (in target 'dynamic-fw' from project 'dynamic-fw') cd /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Desktop/dynamic-fw /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang -Xlinker -reproducible -target arm64-apple-ios17.5-simulator -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator17.5.sdk -O0 -L/Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/EagerLinkingTBDs/Debug-iphonesimulator -L/Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator -L. -L./StringUtils -L./TWFramework -L./TWUtils -L./dynamic-fw -F/Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/EagerLinkingTBDs/Debug-iphonesimulator -F/Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator -F. -F./StringUtils -F./TWFramework -F./TWUtils -F./dynamic-fw -filelist /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/Objects-normal/arm64/dynamic-fw.LinkFileList -Xlinker -rpath -Xlinker @executable_path/Frameworks -Xlinker -rpath -Xlinker ./\*\* -dead_strip -Xlinker -object_path_lto -Xlinker /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/Objects-normal/arm64/dynamic-fw_lto.o -Xlinker -export_dynamic -Xlinker -no_deduplicate -Xlinker -objc_abi_version -Xlinker 2 -fobjc-link-runtime -L/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift/iphonesimulator -L/usr/lib/swift -Xlinker -add_ast_path -Xlinker /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/Objects-normal/arm64/dynamic_fw.swiftmodule -Xlinker -sectcreate -Xlinker __TEXT -Xlinker __entitlements -Xlinker /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/dynamic-fw.app-Simulated.xcent -Xlinker -sectcreate -Xlinker __TEXT -Xlinker __ents_der -Xlinker /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/dynamic-fw.app-Simulated.xcent.der -framework TWFramework -Xlinker -no_adhoc_codesign -Xlinker -dependency_info -Xlinker /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Intermediates.noindex/dynamic-fw.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.build/Objects-normal/arm64/dynamic-fw_dependency_info.dat -o /Users/raunit.shrivastava/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/dynamic-fw-foqtqhpopkmoapfufzxbfloamnpr/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/dynamic-fw.app/dynamic-fw

Every now and then I get this very frustrating message on Feedback Assistant. For instance, in FB14696726 I reported an issue with the App Store Connect API. 4 weeks later, I got a reply, asking among other things for a „correlation key and Charles log“. I immediately replied saying that I didn‘t know what those are, and they replied After reviewing your feedback, it is unclear what the exact issue is. I pointed out that I had asked a question which was left unanswered, and they replied explaining what the correlation key is. Then I asked again what the Charles log is. They replied The Apple Developer website provides access to a range of videos covering various topics on using and developing with Apple technologies. You can find these videos on our Development Videos page: http://aninterestingwebsite.com/videos. I opened the link and searched for „Charles“ but there were no results, so I asked to kindly point me to the video answering my question. They replied 3 months later (today): Following up on our last message, we believe this issue is either resolved or not reproducible with the information provided and will now consider this report closed internally. This Feedback will no longer be monitored, and incoming messages will not be reviewed. This is not the first time I ask for clarification and get back a message basically telling me that „we won‘t answer any questions you may have and won‘t hear anything you still may have to say about this issue“. They didn‘t even ask me to verify if the issue is resolved or not, like they sometimes do. No, they just shut the door in my face. I just wanted to share this frustrating experience. Perhaps an Apple engineer wants to say something about it or a developer has had a similar experience?

I was developing an app using a certain bundle ID, but then had to delete it (and I also removed the app ID Identifier) My question is, can I make a new app with the exact same bundle ID as I was using on the removed one? Since the old app never went into production I don't see why that would be a problem

Background Assets can support a maximum of 200G. Will the Apple server perform file comparison? For example, file0 is included in both a.aar file and b.aar file. On the Apple server, does it occupy twice the size of a single file?

Calling dlopen then dlclose causes an increase in the amount of memory used by the program. If I create a loop that calls dlopen / dlclose repeatedly on the same dynamic library, memory usage increases continuously. Is this a bug, or am I using dlopen / dlclose incorrectly? I can reproduce this by modifying the sample code in the Apple Developer docs Creating Dynamic Libraries. If I modify Runtime.c, changing the line void *lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); to add the infinite loop, as below: void *lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); for (int ii = 0; ; ++ii) { printf("loop %i\n", ii); int close_err = dlclose(lib_handle); printf("close error: %i\n", close_err); printf("dlopen(%s, RTLD_NOW)\n", lib_name); lib_handle = dlopen(lib_name, RTLD_NOW); } then opening and closing the dynamic library will succeed, but memory usage (as reported by top) will rapidly increase. I'm running on x86_64 macOS 13.6.6. Full code for the modified Runtime.c is attached, the rest of the code is available in the Apple Developer docs. Any suggestions? Many thanks, Chris Runtime.c

Hi, anyone managed to make this work? https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/backgroundassets Trying for past few days and can't make it work. Following their official documentation, also this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3jpgZrB1uo, but it seems I am stuck at: try await AssetPackManager.shared.ensureLocalAvailability(of: assetPack) What I did: Manifest files created, info.plist configured, asset pack created and uploaded to appstoreconnect via transporter, successfully assigned to app and ready for internal testing. Added to my code: let assetPack = try await AssetPackManager.shared.assetPack(withID: "Tutorial") try await AssetPackManager.shared.ensureLocalAvailability(of: assetPack) let videoData = try AssetPackManager.shared.contents(at: "Videos/Introduction.m4v") but no luck at all.... is anywhere any demo project available to download to compare with my project?

I'm trying to create a new build from VSC through EAS (expo) but it's failing and returning the error I'm attaching. I'm running the command eas build --profile preview --platform ios. I have an "App Manager" account, my colleague has the same role and he can do builds normally. I have other permissions and accesses ok, as can be seen in the attached picture, but apparently I have the issue in "register bundle identifier". Does anyone faced the same issue? How can I solve this? What step I'm missing? Thanks in advance!

How do I support both Liquid Glass app icon for devices running iOS 26 and a regular app icon for devices running iOS18?

The project at hand is quite complex, and the link content is especially. I suddenly saw this warning again in recent days and wanted to inquire about when this deletion would be done, so that our team could make preparations and plan in advance.

I've got a large and complex app which has several dependencies upon 3rd party libraries (installed as pods). The app is structured according to Model-View-Controller design and there is a requirement to implement the Model part as an .xcframework so it can be included and used in the original app along with a few new apps. However, Apple documentation states that umbrella frameworks are not supported (Technical Note TN2435). The Model code has several dependencies which would be totally unfeasible to replace or remove, for example it uses RealmSwift for database storage. Obviously it would be impossible to write one's own database storage scheme in place of using Realm. However, if my framework uses Realm as a dependency, then its now become an umbrella framework. So therefore not supported according to Apple documentation. So what are options/solutions?

Hi, my server in Melbourne Australia is getting weather forecasts from a few places around Australia. When I look at the daily timesteps that I get back, they might be something like this: "days": [ { "forecastStart": "2025-06-25T00:00:00Z", "forecastEnd": "2025-06-26T00:00:00Z", "daytimeForecast": { "forecastStart": "2025-06-25T07:00:00Z", "forecastEnd": "2025-06-25T19:00:00Z", "overnightForecast": { "forecastStart": "2025-06-25T19:00:00Z", "forecastEnd": "2025-06-26T07:00:00Z",} It doesn't matter where I ask for - Melbourne, Darwin, Perth, it always comes back the same. The documentation says that daytimeForecast is 7 am to 7 pm local and overnightForecast is 7pm to 7 am local. However, in a place like Perth 7-19Z is 3 pm to 3 am, not 7 pm to 7 am like advertised. I can see that for any given date, there are 3 maximum temperature forecasts, a 24 hour max, a daytime max and an overnight max and they differ from each other. Can anyone help me understand what's happening here? And furthermore in the example above, the 24 hour forecasts that have, for example this: "forecastStart": "2025-06-25T00:00:00Z" ... Can the 00:00:00Z be trusted literally? Or is it more the case that it's "2025-06-25" but the HMS got tacked on in a conversion?

Hello, "This issue is blocking App store approval" I have tried pushing my application to Appstore. However it has been rejected on the following ground: _"As we discussed, the app uses or references the following non-public or deprecated APIs: Frameworks/CommonLibrary.framework/CommonLibrary Symbols: • _SecCertificateIsValid The use of non-public or deprecated APIs is not permitted, as they can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change and are otherwise not supported on Apple platforms."_ I have scanned the app using "strings" tool & "otool -ov" tool. But they have come out clean. No Non-public or deprecated APIs detected. Please advise which tool can be used to scan the CL to locate where the deprecated API or non-public API lies and also how to rectify the same. Thanks Saikat Bakshi.

I just noticed that when you check the online documentation for Foundation using the delicious Objective-C flavor, some values are no more the expected ones: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/foundation/filemanager/copyitem(at:to:)?language=objc#return-value true if the item was copied successfully or the file manager’s delegate stopped the operation deliberately. Returns false if an error occurred. Considering that a BOOL used to be YES or NO for the last quarter of a century, I have the following question: [Q] What is the idea behind the disturbing changes of the Objective-C documentation?
