Hello, I’m trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual / Sole Proprietor, but the enrollment keeps failing. The site shows: “We are unable to process your request. An unknown error occurred.” From the network response, I can see the enrollment request to: https://developer.apple.com/services-enrollment/submitIndividualEnrollment returns: HTTP Code: 406 Result Code: 202018 Result String: “Your request could not be processed” Response ID: c6246a54-354e-4336-a78e-9b4476342ac2 Could you please review my account and check what is causing this enrollment failure on Apple’s side? Thank you.

FB19249805 Main: The option to open files in New Window Tab doesn't appear anywhere in either Preferences or the contextual menu on clicking the files in the project (unlike previous Xcode versions). Only the option to open in New Tab is available (which is useless). This BREAKS EXISTING WORKFLOWS that have been established through years for countless developers. I can only see the option to open in New Tab, which breaks all existing workflows and habits. This results in an astonishing blow to productivity. Dear Xcode team: Please restore this option immediately! Additional details: Several years ago (I've been using Xcode since version 2), Xcode renamed the normal tabs into "Window Tabs" and introduced new "Tabs". The new "Tabs" proved to be a useless and counterproductive option for the following reasons: -They cannot be used in Behaviors. (Only Window Tabs can be, and many workflows have been built around this.) -It takes much longer to load a file into a Tab than into a Window Tab (where files are loaded nearly instantly). -Navigators and Inspectors cannot be customized for individual Tabs (only for Window Tabs). -Using both Tabs and Window Tabs is not an option, as it adds another tab bar that eats an enormous part of screen real estate without providing any benefits. Fortunately, we didn't have to use Tabs and could just disable them into oblivion where they belong. Now, in Xcode 26, the option to open files in new Window Tabs is gone. Really, I can only classify it as intentional sabotage. Many years of my Xcode habits and workflows are based on opening files in New Window Tabs via the Preferences > Navigation > With Option option. Or via the contextual menu. Now this option is gone. I'm sure there are plenty of other developers in the same situation. Please reenable the option to open in New Window Tabs. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Hello, I recently applied for enrollment in the Apple Developer Program, and my application has been under review for some time (5 days now). I would appreciate any guidance or insight into the status or typical processing time. Here are my details: Full Name: Kingsley Ibok Enrollment ID: FX678S24XD Please what steps can I take now, I’d really appreciate Thank you.

My enrolment is pending since 13 April and I haven't heard from Apple yet. I have requested for call backs and sent emails. How long does it generally take to get enrolled?

I'm experiencing a persistent issue where my app uploads successfully to TestFlight and appears in App Store Connect, but internal testers (including myself) receive the following error when attempting to install: "Could not install xxxxxxxxx. The requested app is not available or doesn't exist." What works: The build archives and exports successfully via Xcode (local build, Release configuration) The IPA uploads to App Store Connect without errors via eas submit The build appears in TestFlight and passes processing I can add the build to my Internal Testing group Testers receive the TestFlight notification and can see the app What fails: When any tester taps "Install" or "Update," the download begins briefly, then fails with the "not available or doesn't exist" error This affects all internal testers on the account, not just one device Troubleshooting already completed: Verified code signing is correct: Release configuration uses CODE_SIGN_STYLE = Manual, CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY = "iPhone Distribution", with a valid App Store distribution provisioning profile (UUID: 39bc4c63-bc64-403a-a2a6-6737b3d33115) 2. Distribution certificate is valid: Serial 4838CD7571DE5361B98A5FB2F769F74D, not expired (expires 2027-04-16) 3. Regenerated provisioning profile via EAS credentials, removed stale profiles, and rebuilt — same result 4. Incremented build numbers correctly across multiple submissions (3004 → 3005 → 3006) 5. Previously resolved a signing misconfiguration (build 3005 was incorrectly signed with "Apple Development" instead of "iPhone Distribution" due to expo prebuild reverting settings) — this was corrected for build 3006, but the install error persists 6. Confirmed the build is not stuck in processing — it shows as ready for testing in App Store Connect 7. Tested on multiple devices running current iOS versions 8. Cleared TestFlight app cache and reinstalled TestFlight on test devices Why I believe this is a server-side issue: Multiple developers in the Apple Developer Forums have reported the identical symptom — valid builds that upload and process correctly but fail to install with this exact error message. In those cases, Apple Support resolved the issue on their end within 48 hours with no action required from the developer. The signing, provisioning, and build configuration were not the cause. This one is very specific to what I am dealing with https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/778597 One developer stated you fixed it on your side, without any real reasoning which also leads me to believe this is not something I can fix on my end https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/778597?answerId=884241022#884241022 I've exhausted all client-side troubleshooting and believe this may require intervention on Apple's side. Has anyone been able to fix this on their end and not only when App Development called? I went through tons of the feedback and tried it all and it doesn't seem to be fixed. It's been a month or so like this. I can't get any info on who to call. I sent in a report to feedback assistant and through app developer support

When I use Xcode 26 (0.1, 1) for debugging and hit a breakpoint, using "step over" causes the debugger to freeze at a random line of code. Clicking "Pause program execution" indicates that the line is being executed, but the breakpoint never exits, seemingly causing a freeze. The application on the simulator also becomes unresponsive. However, when I do not use breakpoints, my program runs smoothly, and debugging on a physical device does not cause any freezes. This issue only occurs with the simulator. I am using Xcode on Apple Silicon, and due to some third-party SDKs that depend on Rosetta, our app can only run on the Rosetta simulator. We did not encounter this issue when using Xcode 16.x for simulator debugging. The current situation with Xcode 26.x significantly reduces our development efficiency. What could be causing this, and is there a solution?

Hi. On my iOS app, both the app store and the device are making changes to my app icon to make it look more Liquid-Glass. See attached image showing my original icon, and then how it appears on the app store and on devices. There is an added bevel/3d effect. I'd like to not have this happen. Did anybody figure out how to turn this off? So that the icon appears as submitted. I've played around with Icon Composer a bit but haven't managed to turn this off there. And would prefer to just submit the png's. Thank you!

Something happened with my Xcode 26.4 install, I've never had this happen before. I get Xcode 26.4 installed, but the simulators aren't installed. And nothing pops up to "install required simulators". In Devices & Simulators I click the + to install a new simulator, and the beachball just spins and Xcode becomes unresponsive. I've tried quitting and restarting Xcode, reinstalling it (using both xcodes command line tool and the app store), removing Xcode and reinstalling, rebooting after removing Xcode and before reinstalling. Not sure what to try next. Feels like something is left over from uninstalling that's hanging it up. But I've no idea what. I could use some Apple Xcode team help here.

Following an unexpected error message while working in Xcode, the project file xcodeproj is no longer synced in iCloud Drive. The Finder shows a cloud icon with a ! and an error message : (NSFileProviderErrorDomain error -2005.) If the local file is zipped, and unzipped elsewhere on iCloud Drive, then the unzipped file can still not be iCloud Synced. Restoring the file from a Time Machine archive does not solve the issue. Apple Care Support finds that iCloud Drive is working fine except for this xcodeproj file and says the issue is Xcode related.

Hi guys, I just joined the dev program, and I am a new coder. I started using swift playground and I am loving it! Is there any other apps that help me to learn coding? Would love to hear some stuff. Thanks.

Hello! We built a macOS .pkg using pkgbuild (contains a DMG + postinstall bash script). The pkg works locally on the build machine but fails on other devices manually / via MDM unless signed. We tried signing with a Developer ID Installer certificate, but: security find-identity -p codesigning -v → 0 valid identities security find-identity -v → shows the cert Private key is present in Keychain OpenSSL check shows: X509v3 Extended Key Usage: Critical (Expected one might be: Code Signing) We recreated CSR + cert multiple times (G2 Sub-CA), ensured Login keychain, unlocked keychain, etc., but same result. Question: Why is the Developer ID Installer cert missing Code Signing usage and not recognized for signing? Is there any account restriction or step we might be missing? Any recommendations on resolving this issue. Thanks!

I'm working on an app, and currently, 2 things dont work: account creation and notifications. I want to find the root of why these errors are occurring, and I want to know if these errors are coming from Firebase, certain settings in Xcode not being checked, or my actual written code not being typed correctly. I've tried to run my issue through ChatGPT many times to pretty much no success, so any help on what to do so I can clear certain areas and make sure the bugs aren't from certain spots, and help me narrow down the issue would be great. Otherwise, if there are other guides or threads I can be linked to, and help me fully break down the issue, that would be great. Thank you for your time reading, and I hope I can get some advice.

I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual on April 1st, 2026. The $99 payment was charged to my card. I have received subscription confirmation email on April 1st. However, my account at developer.apple.com/account still shows "Pending" status and displays a "Purchase your membership — complete your purchase now" message, as if no payment was made. I have contacted Apple Developer Support several times through the official contact form from April 4 only to get no response. I have received zero responses to any of these emails. My Case ID is 102861052988. I'm trying to launch my iOS app and this delay is blocking my entire submission timeline. Thank you.

Hi, We’re building an iOS app that uses the Screen Time APIs (FamilyControls and DeviceActivity) to display a user’s own usage metrics inside the app. With the appropriate permissions granted, we are successfully reading and presenting metrics such as: Total screen time Device pickups These metrics are already visible to the user inside our app. We would now like to introduce a user-initiated “Share” feature. The idea is to: Render selected Screen Time metrics into a shareable image card generated locally on device. Present the standard iOS share sheet (UIActivityViewController). Allow the user to share that image to Messages, social apps, etc., if they choose. Important clarifications: This is fully user-initiated. The app does not automatically transmit Screen Time data. The metrics are already displayed in-app with user permission. The share asset would be generated locally. No background export or server-side posting would occur unless explicitly triggered by the user via the share sheet. We are seeking clarification on whether there are any policy or API restrictions around: Rendering Screen Time-derived metrics into a user-facing share card Allowing user-initiated export of those metrics via the standard iOS share flow Are there any additional privacy requirements, entitlement constraints, or App Review considerations we should be aware of when implementing this? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Hi everyone, I submitted an app update with an auto-renewable subscription, but it was rejected during App Review. The issue is that the rejection message did not clearly specify what part of the subscription implementation is incorrect, so I'm not sure how to proceed. Here is my setup: Subscription type: Auto-renewable StoreKit version: (StoreKit 1 / StoreKit 2) Server-side validation: Yes / No Products configured in App Store Connect: Yes Tested in Sandbox: Yes (working as expected) Questions: Are there common reasons why subscriptions get rejected without detailed explanations? What areas should I double-check (receipt validation, product configuration, UI compliance, etc.)? Is there a recommended way to get more detailed feedback from App Review? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone Please i need someone to explain this, I wanted to ask if anyone has experienced something similar with their payments. In March, in App Store Connect → Trends → Proceeds, I can see that my total proceeds are $343. However, in Payments and Financial Reports, Apple shows that they will pay me only $258 USD. From what I understand, taxes and Apple’s commission are already deducted when calculating proceeds, so I’m confused about why there is still such a big difference between the proceeds amount and the final payment. Has anyone faced this before or knows what could explain this gap? Thanks in advance for your help!

I am working on a large-scale e-commerce application and we are trying to solve a specific issue regarding push notifications and user experience. We have a use case where we need to send a standard push notification to the user, but under certain local conditions on the device, we want to intercept that notification via a Notification Service Extension and suppress/drop it so it does not alert the user. We understand that the com.apple.developer.usernotifications.filtering entitlement allows a Notification Service Extension to drop notifications. However, looking at the entitlement request form, the categories seem strictly limited to: End-to-end encrypted messaging Earthquake warnings Education/learning platforms Enterprise healthcare apps My questions for the community and Apple staff: Is it possible for an e-commerce or retail app to be approved for this entitlement if we have a highly specific, valid use case that improves user experience. If this entitlement is strictly off-limits for our domain, what is the Apple-recommended architecture to achieve this? Thank you in advance for any insights or guidance!

Since I have changed of iPhone (yesterday) to run my draft application, I systematically, and instantaneously get a message "The application failed to launch.", i.e. the application successfully built and was downloaded to the new iPhone (Iphone 17 pro - iOS 26.4).

I'm triaging the issue with the fast scrolling on UIScrollView and I'm really upset how little to no info this component is on the internet. Like i disabled scrolling and yet after holding the dpad down to scroll downward eventually the fast scroll mechanism is used. The issue I have is that I have a setup where the scrollview scrolling is disabled and whenever cells are focused it'll scroll to the cell's position for that cells to focused on top left side of the scrollview. I start off with the cell placed at position x of 1000. I scroll down enough to enable fast scrolling. While fast scrolling vertically, i press left a couple of time and it somewhat scroll horizontally. Actual scrollView index is suddenly placed to x:0 instead of let say x:950-1000 Expected should be scrolled to the left of cell at position x 1000. Attached the stack trace and the log showcasing it and run it on simulator tvos 26.2. Initial properties of the scrollview we set up scroll = [UIScrollView new]; scroll.contentInsetAdjustmentBehavior = UIScrollViewContentInsetAdjustmentNever; scroll.automaticallyAdjustsScrollIndicatorInsets = false; [scroll setDirectionalLockEnabled:TRUE]; [scroll setContentInset:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 0)]; scroll.bounces = FALSE; scroll.delaysContentTouches = FALSE; scroll.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = FALSE; scroll.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = FALSE; The plan for me at least is to somehow disable the horizontal scrolling interaction of it when fast scrolling is enabled, without accessing the private components of it.

Trying to use the new built-in coding agents in Xcode (Claude / Codex), but running into a limitation with enterprise model setups. Our org accesses models through Microsoft Foundry (Azure-hosted endpoints), and we can connect to those models in Xcode using a custom endpoint / URL. That part works. However, that setup doesn’t seem to work with the built-in coding agents themselves. Those still appear to require direct account login or native API keys, with no way (that I can find) to point them at a custom endpoint or provider-backed deployment. Anyone figured out a way to get the agent experience working with enterprise setups like Foundry (or proxy layers)? Or is that not supported yet?
