I'm trying to make my own MDM server and I'm having trouble allowing nginx to proxy the connection. The web app I'm making can accept http requests so I require nginx. I'm using a certificate from letsencrypt. Every time I try to enroll a phone it instantly rejects at nginx. I have tried multiple cipher options in nginx. I found the following link and my cert supports all except the DHE ones but they say you only need 1.

Hi all, I’m trying to add a file to a game on my iPhone via my MacBook. Now we have no iTunes connecting with the cable brings up the same menus however I’m being told I have to reset my iPhone back to factory settings to do this (see attached). I’m on IOS26 beta 6. A couple of questions I’ve backed up via iCloud, if I reset would I be able to reset it right back to my current set up with the beta, would I lose anything? Is there another way to connect to my MacBook to enable access to the games and files that would allow me to do a minor change without having to reset?

I’m building a Swift Playgrounds app (.swiftpm) in Xcode 26.2 and I consistently see this warning, even on brand-new Swift Playgrounds apps created from the default template: “Skipping duplicate build file in Compile Sources build phase: /Users/.../.swiftpm/Media.xcassets” Everything builds and runs normally and all images/assets appear correctly, so it seems like it’s just an annoying warning. I’ve checked for duplicates and don’t see the asset catalog listed twice, but the warning still appears whenever I add an asset catalog to any playground project in Xcode. Is this warning safe to ignore for submission, and it won’t affect Swift Student Challenge eligibility?

I have developed three apps using the Screen Time API. The following are common problems I encountered in the three apps: DeviceActivityMonitorExtension is automatically killed after running for a few days (frequently) The same DeviceActivityEvent in DeviceActivityMonitorExtension is triggered twice during eventDidReachThreshold (especially obvious in iOS18.5) Screen Time authorization is automatically canceled for no reason (occasionally) I hope to get help

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 developers! I built a basic trivia app for NCAA Wrestling - I do NOT own an iPad 13. I can't get passed the screenshot for approval Hoping for a person willing to help a newbie out - I'm struggling thanks! Adrian Stewart

Hello! i developed an app for the Swift Student Challenge and submitted it, can I publish it to the app store before it is judged.

Just did an update from MacOS 26b1 to b2 and now the Mail app crashes on launch (Thread 0 - something to do with fonts and the webkit. Happens every time on launch of the Mail app.

Hello from your Developer Forums Product Team - The Apple Developer Forums have been redesigned and up-leveled for WWDC24, offering a revamped way to connect with Apple experts, engineers, and other developers to find answers, get advice, and continue the conversations WWDC inspires. We believe the very best of what we do is in enabling developers’ success and in fostering an active, open, collaborative, helpful support and community network. We've created this community space to give developers a place and space to connect beyond code level questions - and view the developer forums as a way for developers around the world to connect with Apple and each other. Stay tuned! Wish there was a feature or improvement on Developer Forums? We welcome feedback and feature requests.

I applied for the Apple Developer Program on January 31, 2026, and as of today (February 5, 2026), my enrollment is still showing as Pending. The payment was completed successfully at the time of application. Since then: I have not received any requests for additional documents or verification. I have contacted Apple Developer Support twice, but have not received any response so far. I understand processing times can vary, but the lack of response from support is concerning. Has anyone else experienced similar delays recently? Is there any recommended escalation path or alternative way to reach the Developer Support team? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as this delay is impacting my app release timeline. Thank you.

To whoever is bothered enough to help (trust me, I get the feeling if you're not), I want to enter the swift student challenge either this year or next year, depending on how things play out. Anyway, I just wanted to know two things: 1) how long on average it takes to build a project which won distinguished winner and 2) whether any distinguished winners could send me the playgrounds they built. To be clear, I do not want the code, I just want to know what you did, what you called the playground, a list of some features it had, how long it took, just to help me prepare, because YouTube doesn't have much of that. Thanks :)

I downloaded Xcode Beta 26 and built the POS code repository project. However, an error appeared: unable to find the module dependency 'minizip'. No changes have been made to the repository since upgrading to iOS 18.0. Is this a new issue with Xcode 26, and what are the resolution steps?

Hello Apple Developer Community, I’m seeking guidance regarding a critical issue with our organization’s Apple Developer Program account. The Apple ID belonging to our Account Holder is currently inaccessible, which has effectively blocked us from managing the account. We urgently need either to restore access to that Apple ID or have the Account Holder role reassigned so we can continue maintaining and updating our apps. I’ve already contacted Apple Developer Support but have not yet received a actionable response, and the matter is time-sensitive because our clients depend on our ability to manage these applications. Relevant details: Our enrollment type supposed to be converted to Organization/Company. The Account Holder’s Apple ID is locked and cannot be used. I have Admin/Manager-level access via a separate Apple ID. Based on the official documentation, transferring the Account Holder role requires initiation by the current Account Holder, which isn’t possible under these circumstances. If anyone has dealt with a similar situation or knows the most effective way to escalate this with Apple, I would greatly appreciate your advice.

👋Hi, I want to ask what equipment the auditors in SSC will use to evaluate students' playground, whether it is iPad pro and mac with camera, or something else. And what system will they use, iPadOS/macOS 26 or something else? Looking forward to your reply. Thank you

Hi Guys! I’ve been encountering some issues while testing the latest iOS beta. Is anyone else experiencing similar bugs? Test environment: Device enrolled in iOS 26 Beta since June 9th, 5:00 PM (BRT) Hardware-related issues: • The device is overheating during routine tasks, especially when screen brightness is set to maximum. • Battery life has dropped significantly — approximately 20% to 30% shorter compared to iOS 18.5 UX/UI issues: • Scrollbars occasionally behave erratically in some apps — scrolling leads to empty areas or becomes unresponsive. • When opening a new tab in Safari, the app sometimes freezes and requires a force restart. • The Control Center is difficult to interact with due to excessive transparency, which gives the impression that the icons are scattered without visual hierarchy.

System data is beyond a joke now. There constant logs being generated and stored somewhere with zero access and ability to delete or clear up. I’ve even tried changing the date hack, however this just created some space from system but mostly just unloaded my apps (a feature which I’ve now disabled, as virtually everything is unloaded now apart from essential items). Apple support says wipe and start again, I’m sure that’s not a solution? Anyone figured out how to resolve this? Also you can’t even force videos into the cloud, frustrating when I’ve got no space and pay for iCloud and have zero space left on my phone. It’s suppose to be intelligent.

since updating from 18.3 to 18.4, both on cellular and WiFi Networks I can’t connect to the internet. Since the phone wont connect to the internet I’m not able to turn off “find my iPhone“ to restore my iPhone to iOS 18.3 this way my iPhone is useless any ideas / thoughts about this?

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

Greetings, everyone! I’m asking all of you to help me. My issue is that I accidentally deleted all my notes from iCloud, and they were then removed from my iPhone and other devices as well. I have been using Apple products for many years, and my notes have been transferred from one device to another over time. They contain very important information for me, and I would really appreciate any guidance on whether it is possible to recover them. I have already tried using the online support at http://www.apple.com/support, but I couldn’t find a live chat option - only general instructions on different situations. I also noticed that there are no Apple Support phone numbers available for Kazakhstan. Given this, I would appreciate any alternative way to get assistance. Looking forward to your reply.

The Uber Driver app is able to get background location and there’s no way to turn it off from settings. Unlike other apps where there’s always an option to turn off background location from settings. Is this a bug or special treatment for big companies? this matters to me because we’re in a similar business but our app has to request background permissions, explicitly. I am attaching both of the screenshots here for you to compare and see. Please note that I verified personally that Uber Driver app is able to get background location.
