All of my notarization submissions have been stuck at "In Progress" for up to 10 days. I have 6 submissions spanning from March 4 to March 11, 2026, and none of them have completed or returned any errors. Affected submissions: dbf20b57-0073-444a-b09a-ac6747b7398e (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress d5886683-be64-455c-805d-cd8b12bbcd35 (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress 10bfa709-da17-49cf-9c89-63f93b5fb756 (submitted Mar 4) — In Progress e8d0866e-43f8-4a18-8129-64e6c5d3895a (submitted Mar 9) — In Progress f9526f25-5650-4c45-98ae-d778c58a2ffa (submitted Mar 9) — In Progress 82ec211f-9179-41fd-afe0-937c9b2c2750 (submitted Mar 11) — In Progress Running `notarytool log` returns "Submission log is not yet available." Team ID: CB4U5M6U9H It is an Electron-based app built with electron-builder. Steps taken to ensure compliance: Signed with a valid Developer ID Application certificate Hardened runtime enabled (hardenedRuntime: true) Proper entitlements configured (com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit, com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory, com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation) Entitlements inherited for child processes via entitlements.mac.inherit.plist Electron Fuses configured to disable Node.js CLI flags in production (resetAdHocDarwinSignature enabled) App submitted as a zip archive via notarytool submit I've tried resubmitting multiple times across different builds, but all submissions remain stuck. I also have an open support case (102836201208) that was escalated to Senior Advisors on March 11, but have not received any update. Could someone from the notarization team please investigate?

I'm unable to notarize my macOS app — notarytool returns statusCode 7000 ("Team is not yet configured for notarization"). My Developer ID certificate is valid (expires 2031), code signing works fine. Timeline: March 4 — opened case 102832266798 via Developer Programs Support March 6 — Apple replied, but the email never arrived (not in spam either) March 9 — sent follow-up requesting the response be resent — no reply March 13 — opened new case 102840272497 via Program Enrollment form — waiting It's been 9 days with no resolution. DTS confirmed this is not a technical issue and referred me to Developer Programs Support. Team ID: 9NL8W3646T Bundle ID: com.traart.app How can I escalate this? Has anyone experienced a similar situation with a new account?

Since 2026-03-17 09:06 UTC, all notarization submissions for one of our teams are stuck in "In Progress" indefinitely. Submission logs return "not yet available", indicating Apple's backend has not started processing. Sample submission IDs: 789d40c4-ff83-469f-9b9b-2ac93183125e 2d4685ed-56ac-49db-8e38-63f0b15650c1 5dc3f242-0add-4725-8386-bb32f8383240 18+ submissions affected. Hundreds of successful notarizations before this date with no issues. Please advise or check backend queue status.

We have 8 consecutive notarytool submit submissions for the same .dmg artifact all stuck In Progress with no movement and no logs available. Submission IDs (all Recall-0.3.6-arm64.dmg, Team ID: H9S7XRPUCA): Diagnostic evidence: notarytool log on all 8 returns exit 69 (log not available) — no rejection reason, no processing output The app bundle submitted as a ZIP (same binary, same signing, submission d21e9fea) was accepted in 41 seconds at 2026-03-27T02:15Z A separate probe submission of a small signed binary on the same team (fcf018c5) was accepted in ~5 minutes All prior Recall DMG builds (0.1.0–0.3.5) processed normally in ~8 minutes on this same team Normal processing time for this team/account is ~8 minutes Conclusion: Content and signing are clean. Account queue is healthy. The issue appears specific to the DMG submission path for this build. Requesting Apple investigate the stuck DMG submissions and advise on next steps.

All notarization submissions remain stuck "In Progress" and never complete. Tested both DMG and ZIP formats — same result. This has been consistent across 5+ attempts on March 29, 2026. App: Electron desktop app (arm64), signed with Developer ID Application, hardened runtime enabled, secure timestamp present. DMG submissions (all stuck): 568cc9c3-e711-41ba-99ce-6af5a1860ae9 (10 min timeout) e0a345c3-ddf8-4771-bdda-e0bc133ff723 (20 min timeout) 6757e5a9-d95b-45b3-95d5-41cb23384bea (20 min timeout) ZIP submission (.app bundle via ditto, ~207MB): Also stuck "In Progress" for 10+ minutes notarytool log returns "Submission log is not yet available" for all submissions. Developer ID Notary Service shows "Available" on System Status page. Environment: macOS GitHub Actions runner (macos-latest), latest Xcode, xcrun notarytool. Seeing similar reports from other developers this week. Is there a known service issue?

Hello! All notarization submissions for our team (i.e., me) have been stuck "In Progress" since my first attempt on 2026-03-31. This includes a trivial Hello World CLI binary (single print statement, ~8KB), confirming the issue is account/team-level, not related to package content. Team ID: KK4X4YSB8V (Selitic B.V.) This is our first time notarizing. Binary is properly signed with Developer ID Application certificate, hardened runtime enabled, valid timestamp. codesign --verify and spctl pass locally.

Hello, I am a new macOS developer. I've been working on my first Mac application and I am trying to notarize it for distribution using notarytool. However, I've encountered a persistent issue where all my submissions are stuck in the "In Progress" status for several days. As this is my first time going through this process, I initially thought I might have done something wrong. However, I have verified my app with codesign --verify --verbose --deep and it returns "valid on disk" and "satisfies its Designated Requirement". I have also tried bumping the version from 0.1.0 to 0.1.1 and removing spaces from the file names, but the new submission is also stuck. Stuck Submission History (Total 4 submissions): ID: 8cb4aebb-e2d5-4091-b279-18272c3a6ca9 (Created: 2026-04-03 - Latest) ID: 0e9a3584-1a21-471a-bc72-4da3f98e2683 (Created: 2026-04-02) ID: 59b70ef1-0b8e-480d-ba33-df872a691610 (Created: 2026-04-01) ID: 685d8fdb-1e55-4cdd-8203-688991c50dd3 (Created: 2026-04-01) As a first-time developer, it’s frustrating to see these initial submissions hang for so long without any logs or errors to troubleshoot. Is there any specific reason why a first-time submission for a new Mac app might be queued this long? I would appreciate it if someone from Apple could help clear these stuck submissions or provide some guidance as to what might be causing this delay. Thank you very much.

Hi, I'm notarizing my Electron macOS app (DMG) for the first time with our new Developer ID, and most submissions have been stuck in "In Progress" for over 24 hours. Environment: Team ID: BSS9KAH6Z2 Certificate: Developer ID Application (valid until 2031) Tool: xcrun notarytool submit (Xcode CLI) App: Electron 28, signed with hardened runtime File: DMG (~131MB), 104 files inside .app What happened: Total 19 submissions over the past 24 hours Only 4 were Accepted (2 DMGs + 2 zips) The other 15 are still "In Progress" with no log available The 4 Accepted ones took 1~1.5 hours each codesign --verify --deep --strict passes with no issues Accepted submission log shows "issues": null Apple System Status shows "Developer ID Notary Service: Available" What I've tried: Submitting as DMG directly Submitting as ditto zip of .app Submitting via electron-builder's built-in notarize Using both app-specific password and keychain profile auth Verified entitlements (allow-jit, disable-library-validation) Since some submissions did get Accepted, I don't think there's an issue with my signing or configuration. Is this expected for first-time submissions from a new team? Is there anything on Apple's side that needs to be configured for my team? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Team ID: LA64G2ZMY2. Submission f28e6a62-5a46-4554-a4b9-666269b3017f has been "In Progress" for over 24 hours. App is signed with hardened runtime, valid Developer ID certificate, HFS+ DMG format (not APFS - aware of DTS r. 134264492). Codesign verifies clean. All requirements met per Apple documentation. Is notarization provisioning needed for new accounts?

Our team (AI Eesti OU, Team ID: W4WXCM4DLL) submitted our first app for notarization and both submissions have been stuck "In Progress" for over 20 hours. Submission IDs: 7433a69a-af1a-463a-a9fc-c80526eb6eab (submitted 2026-04-06 19:11 UTC) d033e2f1-9b33-4b7d-8f8d-271c99f1c61c (submitted 2026-04-06 21:03 UTC) The app is signed with Developer ID Application, hardened runtime enabled, and codesign --verify --deep --strict passes. This is our first notarization submission as a new team. Is this expected for first-time submissions, or is something stuck?

We understand first-time submissions may be routed to in-depth analysis, but 24+ hours with no progress on any of the 4 submissions seems unusual. Could someone from Apple check our team's queue status? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, For my macOS app, on Xcode version 15.4 (15F31d) on macOS 14.5 (23F79) I follow Organizer > Distribute App > Direct Distribution, and I get a Notary Error "The operation couldn't be completed. (SotoS3.S3ErrorType.multipart error 1.)" It's been happening since 3 days. In the IDEDistribution.verbose.log file I see: https://gist.github.com/atacan/5dec7a5e26dde0ec06a5bc4eb3607461

Notarization has been stuck for hours in "Current Status: In Progress...." Should I keep on waiting or restart the process. If I need to restart the process, how should I go about and do that?

Hello, I recently had my Electron app notarized by Apple and then performed the following steps: Stapling the Notarization Ticket: xcrun stapler staple "appPath/Aiparalegal.app" Zipping the App for Distribution: ditto -c -k --keepParent "appPath/Aiparalegal.app" theAIParalegal.zip However, after unzipping and attempting to launch the app, macOS displays the following message: Apple could not verify "theAIParalegal" is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy. Yet, when I run validation using: xcrun stapler validate "theAIParalegal.app" I receive confirmation: The validate action worked! I then tried restarting my computer but the problem persist Could you help me understand why the notarization validation appears successful, yet macOS still displays this security warning? Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
