I know this may not seem like the most important feature, but hear me out... I've been using Apple TV on a standard 1080p TV for years and it was GREAT. Recently, I purchased a higher-end 4K television, and when I plugged in my Apple TV - surprise! I was greeted with a somewhat laggy UI due to input delay. After playing with settings and doing a ton of research, I found that it's because of my TV's video processing features. When I switch from the default content type to my TV's Game Mode, the UI feels like a true Apple product again - crisp transitions and the input lag is basically gone. Here's the annoying part: when I start watching video content, it switches to the corresponding content type and everything looks perfect. But when I go back to the menus, it reverts to the default mode with all the lag. So I'm constantly having to manually switch modes! Adding ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) would fix this problem completely. The best part? It's backwards compatible with HDMI 2.0, so it seems like such a small thing to add that would seriously elevate the user experience. I would at least love it if apple gave users this option we can toggle in the settings. Any way we can get this? I made a community post here not sure best place to post

I'm working on a tvOS application that plays video content using TVMLKit/TVJS. I'm trying to integrate Google IMA SDK to show pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll ads in my app. Here’s what I’ve done so far: Video playback is handled through JavaScript in application.js. Ads are managed in Swift using Google IMA SDK. I use the evaluateJavaScript bridge to control video playback from Swift. I pause and resume the TVJS player (Player object) using a function like startPlayingVideo(value) from Swift based on the ad lifecycle. Current Flow: When the video is about to start, I call loadAds() from JS. This presents a Swift ViewController that handles IMA ad requests. On adsManagerDidRequestContentPause, I pause the video using JS via the bridge. On adsManagerDidRequestContentResume, I resume the video. The Issue: This setup doesn't behave consistently: Sometimes the ad plays in the background and video started playing as well but can not see the ad. Not able to see the post-roll ads Relevant Code Snippets: application.js function startPlayingVideo(value) { if (playerReference != undefined) { if (value == true) { playerReference.play(); else { playerReference.pause(); } } } function playVideo(videoURL) { setup playerReference, push mediaItem, etc. loadAds(); player.present(); } AppDelegate.swift let loadAds: @convention(block) () -\> Void = { DispatchQueue.main.async { let adManagerVC = ViewController() AppDelegate.tvController?.navigationController.present(adManagerVC, animated: true) } } let updateVideoPlayTime: @convention(block) (Double) -\> Void = { time in CustomContentPlayhead.shared.currentTime = TimeInterval(time) } ViewController.swift func adsManagerDidRequestContentPause(\_ adsManager: IMAAdsManager) { showAdUI() playerViewController.player?.pause() } func adsManagerDidRequestContentResume(\_ adsManager: IMAAdsManager) { hideAdUI() // Expecting JS video to resume via bridge } And yeah my IMSDK Implementation is working fine if I am using it with swift AVPlayer. What I Need Help With: Best practice for coordinating video playback between JS (Player) and Swift (IMAAdsManager). How can I sync the playhead reliably between JS and Swift? Is there a better way to pause/resume TVJS player from Swift during ad lifecycle? How to reliably insert mid-roll ads when the playback is primarily controlled in JS? Any insights, code examples, or recommended architecture improvements would be greatly appreciated!

After the update of the Xcode to latest version, I’m getting “No Such Module Unity Framework” as error. the complete information is below. I had to update the Xcode and the O.S as per the Apple Requirement from my older version of 14.x to latest 16.3. I had no issued running the Unity within my iOS App till the recent update. Previous Setup: Unity was successfully integrated into this iOS app and running fine before the update. As it was working till the Xcode version 14.3, i have not changed any code relevant to Unity. What I’ve Tried: a. Added UnityFramework.framework to “Link Binary with Libraries” and marked it as “Embed & Sign”. b. Verified Framework Search Paths include $(PROJECT_DIR)/UnityProject/build/Debug-iphoneos c. Cleaned build folder, deleted Derived Data d. Checked [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks step in Build Phases Stuck On: Xcode still throws "No such module 'UnityFramework'" — it’s as if the framework isn’t being built or seen from my main project. Request for Help: Has anyone encountered this issue post-Xcode 16.3 update from 14.x. I’d really appreciate any guidance, updated workflows, or even a checklist of steps for properly integrating Unity into an existing iOS app with the new Xcode build system.

I just installed macOS Tahoe beta on a mac mini. It says I am not connected to the internet, and attempts to use file sharing fail. Network status says that Ethernet and WiFi are working. Any suggestions?

I’ve recently updated to ios 18.4.1 and I have problems with the internet. Things download painfully slow, an application that used to download in 10 seconds is now downloading in 2 minutes. Videos tend to stop at some point and when i fast forward them it stops to load a little when on the previous version it would work fine. It feels like my internet aged 30 years in 10 minutes. I’ve tried on other phones (not iphones) and it works just fine. Is it from the update or is it just my internet?

i have installed the ios 26 developer beta on iphone se2 and i was testing on my phone then i got stuck on assistive access and i am not able return from there i have tried rebooting then nothing is happening there i see the some option when i pressed and hold power button and volume down for few second there is the option to exit but when i tap on it it freeze for few second it land on the lock screen of that assistive access

Issue with SwiftData: “no such table: ZAPPSETTINGS” and SQLite I/O error on app launch Hello, I’m encountering persistent errors with SwiftData in my SwiftUI app related to Core Data’s underlying SQLite database. Despite defining my models correctly, the app fails to initialize the persistent store, throwing the following error on startup: CoreData error: SQLCore dispatchRequest: no such table: ZAPPSETTINGS. I/O error opening database at /.../default.store. SQLite error code:1, NSSQLiteErrorDomain=1. File “default.store” couldn’t be opened. Context The error only appears concerning my AppSettings model. I have another model, LocationPoint, which appears correctly defined and used. I have tried deleting the app, resetting the device, and cleaning builds but the error persists. The error message suggests the database file is present but the table for ZAPPSETTINGS (the Core Data table for AppSettings) does not exist. Code Samples Main App Entry import SwiftData import SwiftUI @main struct Krow3_0App: App { @State private var userLocationManager = UserLocationManager() @State private var geocodingViewModel = GeocodingViewModel() @State private var locationSearchViewModel = LocationSearchViewModel() @State private var router = Router() var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { LaunchView() .environment(userLocationManager) .environment(geocodingViewModel) .environment(locationSearchViewModel) .environment(router) .modelContainer(for: [LocationPoint.self, AppSettings.self]) } } } AppSettings Model import Foundation import SwiftData @Model class AppSettings { var isMetric: Bool init(isMetric: Bool = false) { self.isMetric = isMetric } } What I’ve Tried Fully uninstalling and reinstalling the app on device and simulator. Resetting the simulator/device. Cleaning the Xcode build folder. Verifying the schema logs which correctly list both LocationPoint and AppSettings. Changing model names to avoid potential conflicts. Adding .modelContainer configuration with autosave enabled. Questions Is there a known bug or limitation with SwiftData concerning certain model setups or naming? Could this be related to how the data container initializes or migrates schemas? Are there recommended debugging or migration steps to resolve “no such table” SQLite errors with SwiftData? How can I safely reset or migrate the persistent store without corrupting the database? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I'm working on an iOS/iPadOS app and need to determine programmatically whether the device is a Shared iPad as configured through Apple School Manager (ASM). Shared iPads allow multiple users to sign in with Managed Apple IDs and are typically used in educational environments. I want to identify this configuration at runtime within my app. I’ve looked into UIDevice, NSProcessInfo, and MDM-related APIs but haven't found a reliable way to detect whether the current device is a Shared iPad. Is there an API or method to check if the current iPad is configured as a Shared iPad (via ASM)? Any guidance or code examples would be appreciated.

Hello, is it anyone here ( or on this planet ) that can help with this issue on Catalina Mac OS 10.15.5 Beta 3 (19F72f).I am using MacBook Pro 16 inches. 😟

Hi Everybody knows about how this kind of files works. My issue is about trying to load data from these files to a HTML page. Everything works, I can read and use this data on my project however the records I have in Numbers, text where there are commas for punctuation, will be separated when this file is loaded. The comma is breaking the records, I know this is a CSV file but is there a way to set semicolon as delimiter on Mac or Numbers to be able to use the comma in my records without any issue? Also could be another symbol, but definitely I need the commas. thank you!

Does CarPlay driving tasks entitlement support push notifications on CarPlay? If no, can Critical Alerts entitlement help in this case?

Dear Apple: After upgrading to version 26 of the iPhone, when broadcasting using the local name, the iPhone 15 Pro Max was truncated to iPhone 15 Pro Ma with a type of 08 (shortened), but the overall length of the broadcast did not exceed 31 bytes

I'm totally baffled by the changes Apple made on iOS18 about certificates usage in the built-in mail application. They decided that self-signed are not accepted any more, fine. As long as you can install your own root CA and trust it, it should be fine. But NO! They have also decided that mail will only accept IMAP servers using a domain name, no more just and IP address. So you can't get any IP-based certificate that will be accepted by the mail app, even with the right SAN and al. I've tried two "identical" certs, one with a domain and one with an IP and the domain works while the IP fails, being rejected as non-valid by the app. The most funny part is that the IP cert is good enough to configure mail (can see the successful login), but is being rejected when reading emails. I'm really fed up with the "Apple police" that wants to push us not using our own storage anymore. My se case is simple, I have an IMAP server that is used by family to archive all emails and keep them organized, saved forever and away from being scanned. I need to access that server either when locally connected or through VPN. For VPN, I use split tunnels because I don't want all traffic to go to tunnel. Nor do I want to create my own local DNS server and have all VPN clients use such DNS server only for the sake of having a domain name for the IMAP server. Nor do I want to open an external port to redirect to my IMAP server (that works of course as then I can use DDNS ...). Talk about increased security! This is insane

Hey there, Just writing here to say how I do enjoy the latest update, but I can’t seem to run it on my iPhone 14 Pro well because it tends to overheat. i can deal with the stuttering issues and app crashes, that’s understandable, but for some reason the hardware seem to really heat up after normal use (scrolling on social media platforms). oh also, I do think rolling back your phone‘s software should be a simpler process as well. It’s not impossible, but the demand of a computer in reinstating a previous backup when iCloud backups your device through WiFi seems like a missed opportunity. Okay. Thank you for reading.

OS macOS 15.4.1 What steps will reproduce the problem? (0) Make sure you have other third-party browsers on your computer, and that their names start with a letter before "M", for me it is Arc browser. (1) Install a previous version of Edge Mac Canary (it can be downloaded from official web site:https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/download/insider?cc=1&cs=426423789&form=MA13FJ). If you don't have an older version, you can download and save the current version, and then try the below steps after a day or two. (2) Eject the DMG from the Finder Sidebar. (3) Switch to the System Settings panel, set the "Default web browser" as Edge Mac Canary just installed. (4) Click a URL link from Notes, it will open in Edge Mac Canary. (5) Navigate to "Settings"->"About Microsoft Edge" in Edge and wait for the update information to show that update is complete (it will auto update to the latest version). (6) Check current result of "Default web browser" in System Settings again. What is the expected result? The "Default web browser" should still be Edge Canary. What happens instead? The "Default web browser" in System Settings will change to Arc. But this time, when you click the link from Notes, it will open in Safari, which means that "Default web browser is shown as Arc, but it is actually Safari. It is worth noting that if you start Edge Mac in step (3) and then set it as Default Browser in the "edge://settings/defaultBrowser" page, this problem will not occur after the update is completed. Chrome Mac has the same issue. Other Please see the video (https://youtu.be/ymWAanLqz1Y) for more details.

I have a question about the operating procedure of the iPhone defaulting into satellite service. Post major storm we noticed that my phones would not allow us to connect to the satellite backup communication because the iPhone was still getting intermittent cell service even though the service that they were receiving via tower signal was that of the tower that had no connectivity (the individual cell tower may have been producing cell SIGNAL, but their ability to transfer data threw microwave or landline was terminated ). Previously, I asked if they could find a fix so that even if the phone is receiving what it is some or very little signal, you could opted to defer to settle in a situation such as this. When left in it’s current programming the phone will not make contact with either communication source leading it to be useless.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreservernotifications/app-store-server-notifications-changelog#June-10-2024 ONE_TIME_CHARGE notify type running in a sandbox environment for almost a year, the feature is not yet available for production environment. The notification is already available in Google subscriptions. Our services often miss orders because of the absence of this notification. Can you give us an approximate time range?

Right now, Apple’s iCloud Keychain (where saved passwords are stored) relies on the same authentication methods as your iPhone in general: Face ID or device passcode. This means: • If Face ID fails, it falls back to the device passcode. • Anyone with your passcode can unlock not only your phone but also your saved passwords by allowing the phone to go into the “enter iPhone password to view passwords” on the password app. Why this matters if someone knows or coerces your device passcode, they could potentially: • Bypass Face ID • Access sensitive password data • Compromise multiple accounts and could access all passwords I have saved on the password app. So, Let’s say my girlfriend knows my phone passcode, she pretty much then has access to all other password and backup codes I have saved on the password app. For this security vulnerability I believe it would be beneficial to introduce more advanced security options for accessing the Password section on iPhone. Specifically, 1. The ability to require Face ID only, without fallback to device passcode. 2. An option to set a dedicated password just for accessing the Passwords section (separate from the phone passcode). 3. Additional optional layers of protection, such as two-factor authentication or a biometric lock, that would prevent access even if someone knows the device passcode. These features would provide an extra level of security for users who are concerned about unauthorized access if someone gains access to their phone passcode.

I don't know if this is the right place to raise this, so apologies if not. For years now, I have exported an NFS share from a host Mac which I connect to from a Raspberry Pi on the same network. I configure this by adding a line in /etc/exports - /Users/Pi -mapall=myusername This has always worked flawlessly, but since updating my Mac (M4 Mac Mini) to Sequoia 15.5 last week, it has developed a problem. If the NFS share is not accessed from the Pi for five minutes, it dies, and the Pi's file manager locks up necessitating a complete reboot. If I run a script on the PI which does an ls on the mounted share every 5 minutes, the lockup does not happen. But if I extend the period to 6 minutes, the lockup occurs. Something on the Mac NFS server seems to be dying in an unrecoverable fashion after five minutes of idle. Even with nfsd logging set to verbose, there is nothing helpful in the console logs. I am open to suggestions to further investigate or to try and fix this, but this is basically a showstopper for me - I need to be able to share data between Mac and Pi, and this is now broken.
