Hi everyone, yesterday I updated my macOS and Xcode to the latest versions and today I have the strangest thing: Canvas is always crashing whenever I click it, in any and all my Projects. The full Simulator works just fine; only the Preview Canvas crashes. All the crash reports say it's because of AXRemoteElement-BackgroundFetch, and ChatGPT says it's not because of my code. These are very simple Projects, just for experimentation. Nothing complex, just native code while I follow examples in a SwiftUI book. Anyone else having this issue?

Since a combined upgrade to macOS 26.4 and Xcode 26.4 I am plagued by .DS_Store and UserInterfaceState files appearing in my repository list of uncommitted changes. This is preventing commits and merging etc. I have added the following list to both the .gitignore_global file via directly editing the file and also the Xcode>Settings>Git Settings>Ignore Files # Mac OS X .DS_Store # Xcode *.pbxuser *.mode1v3 *.mode2v3 *.perspectivev3 *.xcuserstate UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate project.xcworkspace/ xcuserdata/ # Generated files *.o *.pyc # Build directories DerivedData/ build/ # CocoaPods Pods/ # Carthage Carthage/ # Other *.swp *.lock This has been to no avail. I have raised Feedback FB22370688 for this issue. It has been marked as no similar reports which is odd because there are a lot of mentions of the .DS_Store files appearing in Git and also of problems with the ignore settings of Git. For a while, I successfully prevented the .DS_Store files from showing up as uncommitted changes but now they are back again. I did a git status on the project and got this output for a while Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) modified: Target Analysis.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcuserdata/myuserid.xcuserdatad/UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate Ignored files: (use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed) Target Analysis iOS/ Target Analysis macOS/ Views/Testing/.DS_Store Now, in Xcode it looks like this So the .DS_Store files are no longer being ignored. I have raised an Apple Developer Tech Support (DTS) Question as I have exhausted every avenue that I could find. DTS said to just remove the file(s) in Git. Neither this nor the .gitignore_global file are fixing the problem. This all just seems to be so unnecessarily difficult especially as many others have faced the same problem.

Hi I paid my apple developer account fee on October 23rd. However, my account is still not active. I've emailed support several times. What should I do to open my account? I've been waiting for a long time. Is there anyone here to help?

I enrolled my company Yasmina IT and Development LLC (Wyoming LLC) in the Apple Developer Program as an organization. The enrollment was declined and my account page now shows "Your enrollment request for your company has been declined." Company details: Legal Entity: Yasmina IT and Development LLC D-U-N-S: 141729385 Website: yasmina-it.com Valid EIN and passport on file Developer Support (Robert, case 102818588804) advised me to enroll as an individual instead, but provided no specific reason for the organization decline. I replied on March 19th asking for the rejection reason — no response. I opened a second case (30000003327016) on March 25th — also no response. I am not asking to bypass any requirements. I simply need the specific rejection reason so I can take the correct action. Has anyone experienced this and found a resolution?

We have received a Pending Termination Notice for our Apple Developer account related to guideline 3.2(f). We submitted a formal appeal over two weeks ago but have not received any response. We want to ensure full compliance and have clearly confirmed in our appeal that: -No hidden features exist -No dynamic content switching occurs after review -All apps are independently configured for specific regions Given the lack of response, could someone advise: whether additional steps are required from our side or how we can ensure our appeal is reviewed Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I just submitted a feedback for this (FB9662125) but in the spirit of “share and enjoy”… The cool new Generate Info.plist File feature in Xcode 13 crashes if you try to put an NSLocationTemporaryUsageDescriptionDictionary in your Info.plist file. Here’s a simple repro scenario: Create a minimal iOS app (no Core Data, no tests) Go to target settings → Info tab → Custom iOS Target Properties Click the (+) button on any row to begin inserting a new row Select Privacy - Location Temporary Usage Description Dictionary Click somewhere else or press Return to commit the selection Xcode crashes immediately More generally, it seems that Xcode crashes any time it tries to regenerate your Info.plist file if it contains an NSLocationTemporaryUsageDescriptionDictionary, even if (for example) you manually pasted that dictionary into the file earlier. In that case, merely tapping the (+) button in step 3 above is enough to crash it.

Hey there, so I wanted to know what kind of experience you guys had with creating your apple developer account. I have a client who paid for my developer account with his credit card details, but he's not in my country, I figured that this is the reason the payment is taking ages to process but I've received several emails saying "hey payment has been received" and all that jazz. But it still says "Purchase your membership" on my enrolled to developer program page. If anyone could provide some support that would be great.

Hey I wanted to ask how long is the waitinguntil the request will be approved. Im waiting 12 hours already and I seems like smth is wrong thank u

As shown in the image, my application was working normally, then suddenly this happened. I've sent an email to support but haven't received a response yet. Has anyone else experienced this?

I have a subscription since Wednesday and normally two days later my account should be validated, but until then the account is still pending, can anyone help me? help me !!!!!

Hello everyone, I paid for an Apple Developer subscription, but after a week, about 7-8 days, I still don't have access to my developer funds. The subscription is active, but the money is debited. Please help me access and activate my developer account. I haven't received a response for several days, and I'm very upset. I just don't know what to do. They aren't responding to my requests, and the phone number isn't listed anywhere, so I can't call. The Apple Developer subscription is showing in the App Store subscriptions, the money is debited, the account is inactive, and my Apple Developer account is empty. This is my first and very frustrating experience. Order code: D009562242

The support team is absolutely useless here. I subscribed to a developer account and everything was fine; I received an email. But because there was a bug in their app, I signed up for a second subscription, and I cancelled the second one. As a result, I haven't heard back from support for a week, and I'm sitting without an account even though I paid for the first subscription. These dogs don't respond.

I submitting the verification forms on March 23, 2026 but no response and no access has been granted. I called support and they said to post on here. Email said it takes 2 business days. any recommendations on how to get access?

I purchased a $100 Apple Developer credit for my apple account , but the Apple Developer access hasn’t been granted to my account, and it still says “pending” and “complete purchases.” In other words, I can’t use what I purchased and can’t access it. Is there anyone who can help me with this issue regarding the Apple Developer license?

I enrolled in Dev Program for 3 days. How long it takes usually to get approved? Do I pay before enrollment or after? There's no clear info on the process.

Hello, I am the Account Holder for VectorForge LLC (Team ID: WCFQ8X3RVH). I have been blocked from notarizing any macOS application since at least March 2026. Every submission is rejected with statusCode 7000: { "jobId": "896ce43a-f77c-4b4e-87d2-5260035a37fe", "status": "Rejected", "statusSummary": "Team is not yet configured for notarization.", "statusCode": 7000, "archiveFilename": "?.zip", "uploadDate": "2026-03-22T18:38:40.189Z" } Support history (all unresolved): • Case 102838799002 — contacts on Mar 7, Mar 23, Mar 26, Apr 2, 2026 • Case 102851046683 — contacts on Mar 23, Mar 25, 2026 • Case 102859151238 — opened Apr 2, 2026 (Membership and Account) Each time I have been told the case is being escalated or forwarded to another team, with no follow-up or resolution. Most critically: I am now unable to submit any new support ticket through the Apple Developer portal at all. Every attempt returns "There was a problem processing your request." I have no notarization access and no support access. I am asking: Is there a formal appeal process for accounts in this state? What can a developer do when both notarization and the support portal are inaccessible? Team ID: WCFQ8X3RVH Legal Entity: VectorForge LLC Primary case: 102838799002

Description: I'm trying to set up Xcode Cloud for a tvOS project that uses Tuist for project generation. The workflow is created successfully, but when I try to manually start a build, no branches are listed — it just shows "There are no branches available." Setup: tvOS app project using Tuist 4.x for project generation Hosted on GitHub (private repository, organization) The .xcodeproj and .xcworkspace files were originally in .gitignore (standard practice for Tuist projects) ci_scripts/ci_post_clone.sh is configured to install Tuist and run tuist generate --no-open after cloning What I've tried: Removed *.xcodeproj and *.xcworkspace from .gitignore and committed the generated project.pbxproj to Git — branches still not visible Changed the "Project or Workspace" path in the workflow settings to match the actual location of project.pbxproj (Projects/App/.xcodeproj) — no change Temporarily changed the default branch to one that contains the committed .xcodeproj with project.pbxproj — still no branches available Verified GitHub App (Xcode Cloud) has proper repository access with read permissions for code, metadata, and pull requests Confirmed no webhook configuration issues (compared with another working repository that also has no webhooks) Key observation: When I switch the workflow's source repository to a different repository (a standard Xcode project, not Tuist-based) within the same organization, branches appear correctly. Switching back to the Tuist-based repository shows no branches again. This suggests the issue is specific to the repository structure, not GitHub permissions or workflow configuration. Project structure: Root/ ├── Workspace.swift # Tuist workspace definition ├── Tuist/ │ └── Package.swift # SPM dependencies ├── Projects/ │ └── App/ │ ├── Project.swift # Tuist project definition │ └── <project>.xcodeproj/ │ └── project.pbxproj ← (committed to Git) ├── <project>.xcodeproj/ # Root-level (no project.pbxproj, only xcshareddata/schemes) ├── ci_scripts/ │ └── ci_post_clone.sh # Installs Tuist & generates project └── .gitignore Environment: Xcode version: Latest Release (26.4) macOS: Latest Release (Tahoe 26.4) Tuist version: 4.161.0 Question How does Xcode Cloud discover branches for a repository? Does it require a valid .xcodeproj with project.pbxproj at a specific path on every branch? Is there a known limitation or recommended setup for Tuist-based projects where project files are generated at build time via ci_post_clone.sh?

Compile with xcode26 due to the need to maintain compatibility with older third-party libraries and other linker flags -ObjC -ld_classic -Wl,-U,ld64_classic_ordinal_for_proxy -Wl,-no_fixup_chains Will using these settings have any impact

I'm running a macOS 15.2 guest on a macOS 15.1.1 host with UTM. I'm trying to install Xcode from within the App Store but cannot login to the App Store. When I enter credentials and click 'Sign In' I get the Error 'An unknown error occurred'.
