Any way to automate adding libraries in Xcode from Swift Package Manager (SPM)?
Hi all, I’m looking for a way to automate the process of adding Swift Package dependencies (SPM) into an Xcode project. Right now, I’m doing this manually via: Xcode → Project → Swift Packages → Add Package Dependency... But I’d like to script this step — ideally as part of a CI/CD pipeline or a setup script. I explored the xcodeproj Ruby gem, but it doesn’t support adding SPM packages, and there's no official support for editing the .xcodeproj structure related to Swift Packages. So my question is: Is there any Apple-supported or community-supported way to programmatically add Swift Package dependencies to an Xcode project or workspace? Would love to know if anyone has: Used xcodebuild, xcodegen, or other tools for this Explored editing project files directly (like project.pbxproj or Package.resolved) Found any API or CLI hooks from Apple for this Thanks in advance!

Apple Developer Account Closed Shortly After Enrollment
Hi everyone, I created a new Apple account for a university project and enrolled in the Apple Developer Program with this new account. I paid for the enrollment using my personal account's payment method. However, a few hours later, Apple closed the newly created account. When I contacted Apple Support, they informed me that they won't reopen the account and also don't refund the enrollment fee. So now I'm stuck with a paid and unsued Developer Program enrollment for an account I can no longer access. Is there any way to transfer the Developer Program enrollment to another Apple Account (either a new one or my personal account)? Has anyone faced a similar situation and found a solution? This is especially frustrating as the enrollment was for educational purposes, and I'm now out the enrollment fee with nothing to show for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, Oliver

Invalid Bundle ID: XCode Cloud -> Create App on App Store Connect
Hi - I was recently added to Apple Developer Team, and I am trying to upload an App to our Team's App Store Connect account for TestFlight distribution. I am trying to use XCode Cloud to this all automatically, but it is currently giving me this error: "Invalid Bundle ID. Bundle ID "com.XXX.YYY" could not be automatically registered because it is not available. Update the bundle ID of your project and try again." I am not sure if this is related to the fact that when I try to associate my XCode Account (XCode -> Settings -> Accounts), I only see my (Personal Team) account even after removing that account and re-adding it. Additionally, when I go my App -> Targets -> Signing & Capabilities and I check / uncheck automatically manage signing. I only see my Personal Team account. When I try to download a Provisioning Profile, I see "No Valid Teams, Unable to Find Any Valid Teams." I need to keep the bundle ID of the project as is because it is associated with a Firebase backend. What should I try next? Thanks!

I received hardly any response to my DTS ticket - What to do?
About three weeks ago I submitted a DTS ticket (13097367) to receive code level support with a potential SwiftUI bug. At first I did not receive any response at all (beside the automatic confirmation that the ticket has been created). Only after posting the question here, I got a reply from a DTS engineer. However, the proposed solution did not really solve the problem but only circumvents it (UI freezes when ScrollView reaches below SafeArea. Solution: Do not use ScrollView below SafeArea...) I pointed out, that this does not really help me. Since then I did not receive any further response. Is this normal? Is there something wrong with my ticket? Maybe it was closed by accident or something? Thank you very much!

Icon dark mode not working on iPadOS
I updated the icons in Xcode to customize the appearance of my app icons to be light, dark, or tinted. The app is allowed to be downloaded and run on iPadOS. The app icon behaves as expected on iOS however the app icon does not change on the iPad. Am I missing a step for the iPad? To be clear the app does not target iPadOS rather it is just running the iOS version. Thanks kof

Terminated Without Explanation – No Contact Options Left
Hello, I represent a registered business operating under a developer account that has always followed Apple’s guidelines, complied fully with review requests, and submitted documentation whenever asked. We have never knowingly violated any policy, and we categorically deny any dishonest or fraudulent behavior. Last week, our developer account was suddenly terminated without any prior warning or opportunity to address concerns. The message provided no specific reason, no actionable details, and no path to resolution. This has left us completely locked out — unable to appeal through standard channels, and unable to contact anyone directly. It’s shocking, disorienting, and devastating to a legitimate business with employees, users, and operations depending on this platform. To make matters worse, this is not the first time. A previous termination notice was sent weeks ago and then — after we submitted a respectful and professional appeal — Apple quietly reversed the decision overnight, without any explanation or follow-up. We were left to assume it was a mistake. We had hoped that incident was rare and behind us. Now it’s happening again, without explanation, and without a human conversation. We are losing money and users every day, and we’re still in the dark about what Apple believes we did wrong — because no one has told us. We submitted a support ticket (ID: 102590329012), but have received no reply. We are committed to transparency, and we’re ready to provide any information needed. But we need someone to acknowledge this issue and help us find a path forward. If anyone has experienced something similar or knows of escalation methods that worked, please share. We’re doing everything we can to resolve this respectfully — but we are shocked and deeply concerned. Thank you.

xcode instruments could not find any libraries loaded by this process
I am using XCode16 and macOS 14.7.2. Previously, using the instruments on an iPhone with iOS 14.3 was normal, but when I upgraded to iOS 18, the instruments often couldn't find the library. I have to restart the instruments to restore normal operation, but the problem will occur again after using it for a period of time
