Hello. I just got my developer account and my legal entity on my account has a mistake. My last name is spelled wrong. I have sent 3 emails to support about this and for the past week i have zero response to this issue. Can someone advise me on this? The ability to reach anybody from support is ridiculous for something that we can access only after payment especially. I even called apple business program with this and person on the phone said they will try to take to the supervisor but its not their department which i of course know but it was worth a shot to call. What more can i do? I didnt make a mistake when creating my account it was the system that didn’t recognize the letter. Such a stupid and frustrating issue and no response from apple, nada. how long am i suppose to wait?

After updating to another beta of High Sierra, my internal hard drive became read-only somehow. I have a user home directory on that and many things have stopped working. I tried re-installing the OS, but it didn't help. I'm out of options by now. Anyone has ideas how can I fix that?

У меня проблема с часами Apple Watch Series 10. После обновления до IOS 26 часы перестали грузить приложения. просто чёрный экран с кодом сайта сверху. уже перезагружала, сбрасывала. к интернету подключен

After recent upgrade to 17Pro, CarPlay no longer lists any audio streaming services-Sirrius XM, Pandora, etc. Did Apple recently drop them from CarPlay approval? They all showed prior to upgrade to 17 and iOS26. If not any recs to get them to show again? Thx Jim

When testing the same warning comes up (sign in failed network error) for the apple and demo sign in I created. The google one works fine. I am confused because when I test in Xcode on multiple devices it works perfect. The tester has got the same error repeatedly? Most recently as a fix have updated the production backend. Does anyone have any insight why the xcode testing works for me but not the tester (I understand they are on a live device- I have even connected my phone and tested on that).

Hello🙏, I’m a new indie developer and I’m trying to understand review timing behavior. Context: App type: Game built with Unreal Engine 5 Initial submission: Entered “In Review” within 48 hrs. Result: Rejected due to icon similarity (icon too similar to an existing App Store icon) What I did next: I updated the icon to ensure it is clearly distinguishable and resubmitted. After 30 (?)hrs, I removed/rejected that submission myself while it was still in "Waiting For Review" because I suspected the icon asset might still contain a transparency issue (this was my own precaution before Apple flagged anything). I then corrected the icon asset and submitted again (current submission: Build 7). Current status: Status: Waiting for Review Duration: 9 days Calendar days ( Mon, 09 Feb and today is 17th Feb 26) in this state for Build 7 Additional notes: The app runs without crashes on my iPhone and iPad. During the earlier review, Apple only raised the icon similarity issue (no functional issues were mentioned). I contacted App Store Connect support; they couldn’t provide a queue timeline, but nothing appears flagged on their side. Question: Is it normal for a resubmitted build (after correcting an icon-related rejection, and after a developer-cancelled submission) to remain in “Waiting for Review” for an extended period before switching to “In Review”? I’m trying to understand if this is typical queue variability or if removing a submission and resubmitting can affect how long it stays in “Waiting for Review.” Thank you for any insights.

Hi @DTS Engineer in tvOS 26.2 Beta is still this annoying Shadow Glitch… 😔 I have submitted an Bug-Report, but dont get an Answer… FB18719371 The Animation is not smooth and the Shadow is abruptly „jumping“… I don’t get any Response from the Apple Engineers. But this GUI Glitch makes the otherwise very high-quality tvOS GUI appear very unprofessional. Could you please help me? 🤔

My apps been live on the app store for over a day now and my subscriptions have been stuck on waiting for review, ive sent an email and even been on live imsg support but they cant help either and i have had nothing back via email. has anyone got any suggestions

Criei uma conta dev em outubro, mas até o momento não tive nenhum retorno.

So i and many other big youtubers out there use iphones for intense gaming such as callcof duty and fortnite. However apple never listens especially to those of us that have been your guys's clients since the early 2000's. Users have different guinsetups for their games and a lot of the time when in an intense conpetition and the the low battery animation pops up it blocks our screens and that 3 to 4 seconds it takes to disappear makes us lose a game. Apple needs to implement a feature that allows us to toggle the notification even if our phone dies or a more efficient route would be allow us to toggle or set it by default to show that your battery is low on the top of the screen where the black line expands when you start charging your phone so it doesn't affect my gameplay whatsoever. This is a crucial thing apple needs to do, many people won't report it because apple never listens. Another great feature would be if apple could make a charging port on the side for claw players.

Please help. I purchased an Apple Developer account subscription through the iPhone app. It's listed in the App Store, but it's not listed in Apple Developer itself. I've been waiting for a response from support for over a week, but it's as if they've completely forgotten about me; no one's responding. Although, in fact, it says two days ago. Has anyone else encountered this and can help? It's asking me to pay a second time, and through the website.

Hello, I'm having a serious problem registering for the Apple Developer Program, and I can't resolve it. I applied over two weeks ago, but I still haven't received an activation email. I've also tried using different credit cards, suspecting there might be a problem with my payment method. The main issues are as follows: My order/registration remains in the "processing" status, I haven't received an activation email, Apple Developer Program support isn't responding. I've already sent over seven emails to support, but haven't received any response or updates. Has anyone else encountered a similar situation?

Hello Apple Developer Technical Support team, We have an iOS app that provides caller identification via a Call Directory extension (CXCallDirectoryProvider). Our extension provides identification entries (phone number → label), and users enable it in Settings > Phone > Call Blocking & Identification. We would like to confirm whether Call Directory is used only for incoming calls, and understand why the outgoing call UI sometimes shows labels. Observed behavior Incoming calls: After a user logs in again (which triggers a server sync and then reloads the Call Directory extension), the caller label is shown correctly on the incoming call screen for matching numbers. Outgoing calls: In general, the outgoing call screen often shows only the phone number (no label), even when the same number exists in our identification entries and the extension is enabled. However, on some devices, the outgoing call screen does show a label even when the number is not saved in the local Contacts app. In at least one customer case, the outgoing label behavior changed after an iOS update: before updating iOS, labels were not shown on outgoing calls; after updating iOS, labels started appearing (with no changes in our app settings/config). Questions Is the Phone app expected to consult Call Directory identification entries only for incoming calls (caller ID), and not for outgoing call UI? If labels can appear on outgoing calls, what are the possible sources and rules (e.g., Recents cache, carrier Name Display/CNAM, other system caches), and is any of that behavior documented? Are there known iOS version changes or issues that could explain “outgoing label not shown” becoming “outgoing label shown” after an OS update? We can provide: A minimal repro project, steps to reproduce, and exact iOS versions/devices Screenshots/video sysdiagnose / device logs (please advise what log types are most useful) Thank you,

As the title says, in apple developer site under (Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles) all my devices are set to inactive, and I cannot enable them back because my twices are glitched I have 2 devices and they are there twice each with the same UDID. So I cannot enable a single one. I’m hit with “A device with number 'UDID number' already exists on this team.” I have an iPad Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, I cannot sign any apps to them at all or do anything because my devices are set to inactive, I’ve contacted apple numerous times, and I can’t seem to get any help regarding this issue. I’ve called and emailed, and the developer team has yet to respond to me, if anyone’s had this issue please tell me how you solved it. i also cannot erase any devices myself until my renewal date. ive tried manually adding my devices, and its the same message that my devices already exist on team. Ive signed out of my apple account on my devices, changed pw, turned off developer mode and renabled it numerous times, I really don’t know what to do.

Hi everyone, I’m new to the Apple Developer side of things and I want to make sure I’m handling this correctly. I hired a freelance iOS developer to build my app. I have my own Apple Developer account (Individual), and I want the app published under my account. The developer says he needs me to create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR), then he will generate the distribution certificate on his end and send me the .cer file back. From there, he would use that for signing and submitting the app. My questions: 1. Is this the correct and modern way to handle app signing? 2. Should I instead just add him to my App Store Connect account with Developer access and let him manage signing through Xcode? Dev claims this won’t work, which I haven’t been able to prove or disprove. ChatGPT says it does,but other AI tools says it doesn’t. 3. Is there any risk in sharing certificates like this? 4. What is considered best practice in 2026 for working with freelancers while keeping full control of the account? My goal is simple: • The app stays fully under my Apple Developer account. • I retain long term control. • The developer can build and submit without needing my Apple ID or password. I’m not trying to make things complicated, I just want to do this the right way and avoid issues later. Thanks in advance.
