Apple Developer Program Enrollment FAILURE
I’ve been trying to pay for Apple Developer Program enrollment since decemeber 2024 so now in June 2025 - 6 months of no solutions We have tried all everything, emailed every possible support on developer website, tried mutliple cards and accounts, withdraw enrolment, re-enroll nothing. We even spoke to local Apple Head Office to try and get help to no avail. Customer senior management support even could not help or escalate nothing – But I don’t know what’s really going on or what to do next PLEASE HELP US We are from South Africa

Cannot see Beta Update option for Developer Beta (no matter the device platform)
Apple Developer Support stated that they don’t have any technical support for this and suggested posting in the Forums or Feedback Assistant app. Hoping someone here may have encountered this before and maybe has a fix. On any of my devices (macOS, visionos, watchOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and iOS) Beta Update will not show Developer Beta as an option for my Apple Account/ID. The only option would be Public Beta. As visionOS is only available for Developer Beta, this wouldn’t help with my workflow unfortunately. My question is whether anyone here has seen that Developer Beta did not show up under Beta Update and what they had to do to get that fixed.

Trouble enrolling and reaching the dev team
I've been trying to enroll as a developer but keep running into an "unknown error". I've even tried having the dev team call me and sending an email through the support portal but keep getting the message that my request cannot be processed. Even calling apple support didn't work as they were unable to connect me with the dev team. Any idea on how to get this sorted? Thank you!!

Unable to enroll in Apple Developer Program - Payment declined despite bank approval (France)
Hello everyone, I am unable to enroll in the Apple Developer Program. The payment (credit card) is accepted by my bank but systematically declined by Apple. Note: I am located in France. I have tried multiple times. The support team, via email, suggested I use the Apple Developer app. However, it is "not available in my region," so I have to go through the website. No other payment method is available: Apple Pay is greyed out, and there is nothing else. Support has not responded for weeks, despite my follow-ups. I am very frustrated as I need to launch my app quickly, and everything is ready on the Google side... Would you have any suggestions or solutions? Thank you so much, your responses are greatly appreciated! Mélissa

Trying to enroll, getting an error
My apple account region was set to US. I am not in US and don't have an American phone number. When I first tried to enroll with non-American number and Region set to US, I got an error. I have changed my region after that and when I am trying to change the details, I am landing on "Select your entity type." page and not on the page where I have to input my details. Contacted support and no answer. Can anyone advise what to do?

Unable to verify my identity for Apple Developer account enrollment
Initially, I had some issues enrolling in the individual Apple developer program. Then, I contacted support via email, and they finally requested that I verify my identity. I submitted my national ID for verification and then received an email stating that my identity was verified. After that, I tried to enroll in the Apple developer program, but the issue persisted even after they instructed me to proceed. Subsequently, I received an email stating that my identity was not verified. Here is the exact wording from the email: "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." After that, I tried to reach support several times, but there has been no response from them.

We will prove our innocence with our lives.
We are Chengdu Wang Lida Technology Co., Ltd.. Over the past year, we invested tremendous time, effort, and resources to successfully launch our app on the App Store. However, despite spending a full year developing and finally getting our app approved, just one month after its launch, we suddenly received an email notifying us that our developer account had been suspended for one year due to a violation of Section 3.2(f) (fraudulent behavior). We are deeply confused and disappointed. As developers, we have never engaged in any fraudulent or misleading activities. We have always operated in full compliance with Apple’s Developer Program Agreement and platform guidelines. Our question is: who would deliberately engage in fraudulent behavior after spending an entire year developing and launching an app? What’s even more heart-wrenching is the impact this decision has had on our team. Due to the overwhelming pressure, our project leader suffered a sudden heart attack and was rushed to the ICU. As team members, we are devastated and feel the immense psychological and emotional toll this account suspension has caused. We are now calling on the Apple community and Apple Inc. to help us clarify this misunderstanding and resolve the issue. We firmly believe that such an arbitrary and unfounded account suspension decision should not be made. As developers, we should have the opportunity to communicate and clarify before such drastic actions are taken. We will be filing complaints against Apple’s inexplicable account suspension both on the developer forums and in the media. We will fight this inequality with all we have, and stand for fairness and justice. We are more than willing to cooperate with Apple, providing all the necessary evidence and data to prove that our actions were fully compliant. We sincerely request that Apple review our case and provide a reasonable explanation and solution. As a small development team, we have invested all of our money and effort into this app. It is not just our job; it is our dream. We cannot accept seeing our hard work destroyed by such a misunderstanding. We will continue to fight for fairness and justice, and we hope for a fair resolution. Thank you for your attention and support. We will continue to pursue all legal channels to ensure that our team and our product get the rights they deserve.

Unresolved Apple Developer Program Enrollment Issue
Hello everyone, I am facing a persistent and unacceptable issue with my individual enrollment in the Apple Developer Program that has been ongoing for nearly three months. Despite multiple attempts to communicate with Developer Support, I am continuously receiving the exact same generic statement: "For one or more reasons, your enrollment... couldn't be completed," with no clear explanation or actionable steps provided. This lack of genuine assistance and transparency is deeply frustrating and prevents me from publishing my application. Key Details of the Situation: Apple ID Region: Türkiye Current Residence and Address: United Kingdom (UK) Identity Verification: I used my Turkish passport along with my UK residential address. Enrollment Status/Error: After submission, I received the "Contact us to continue your enrollment" prompt. Case Number: 102720548696 Support Experience: The case has been handled by multiple support staff (Migeylis, Alex), all of whom have provided identical, non-specific template responses, failing to address the core problem. It appears the conflict between my Apple ID region (Türkiye) and my UK physical address/Turkish passport documentation is the likely cause. I am seeking clarification on whether this is a known issue for developers with mixed international details and what concrete steps are required to resolve this ambiguity. Has anyone in the community experienced a similar issue? If so, what was the path to resolution? I urge Apple officials to escalate this matter immediately and provide a specific, helpful, and transparent resolution. Every developer deserves equal and fair treatment in the enrollment process. Thank you in advance for any insights or assistance. Best regards, Onur

How do I get access to the Accessory Setup Kit?
Hi! I would like to experiment with the Accessory Setup Kit, but I am not sure how I can add the required entitlement to my Apple Developer account. I added the following to the plist file: NSAccessorySetupKitSupports WiFi NSAccessorySetupWiFiSSIDPrefix test_ test And the following to the entitlements file: com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit But I am unable to build as my provisioning profile doesn't include "com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-kit entitlement". On the developer portal, I navigated to “Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles” > “Identifiers” > “”, but I don't see it under "Capabilities" or "App services", nor under requests. How do I configure my profile so that I am able to make use of this kit?

Apple Developer Program Enrollment Pending for Over 3 Weeks (Identity Verification)
Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program on February 1, 2026. I completed payment, signed the agreement, and uploaded my government-issued ID after support requested identity verification. I received confirmation that my documents were received, but my membership is still pending. It has now been over three weeks with no activation or clear update. I have contacted support multiple times and even called, but I am still waiting. Has anyone experienced a similar delay recently? Is this normal for identity verification in certain regions? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
