Hey there, I recently updated my iPhone to the iOS 26 developers beta version, and I’m encountering an issue on the Software Update page. It says “Unable to check for updates,” and I’m unable to revert to iOS 18. Is this a temporary problem? Will I be able to update my iPhone in the future without needing to reset it? Thanks

Hello guys, We have updated our app icon, and it is correctly reflected in our app build and assets. However, the push notification icon is still displaying the old version for some users. ✅ We have verified that: All icon assets in Assets.xcassets match the new icon. The app icon has been updated in Info.plist. The app has been resubmitted and approved on the App Store. ❌ However, some users still see the old notification icon, even after reinstalling the app. Restarting the device does not always resolve the issue. Could you provide insights into how iOS caches notification icons and how we can force a refresh for all users?

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

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.

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’m concerned because my iCloud account was recently migrated to AWS (Amazon Web Service) against my will, and now it seems.like people are rummaging through my files, photos, and mail, When I try to contact Apple Support, I get bumped to a spoofed site. Calling the hotline is the same, I get a Siri operator with platitudes and gaslighting but no action. I have run sysdiagnose and it looks really sketchy. Can anyone help?

👋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 everyone, I’m not sure if this is the right place for it, but I wanted to share a bit of my background and ask for advice from developers who’ve been in the industry longer than me. I started learning to make games when I was a kid using Game Maker. Later I got into Unity and even worked a few years as a solo developer for small startups — building Unity apps, VR projects, AR demos, websites, servers, everything. But I never had a real team, never had mentorship, and none of the projects I worked on ever reached production or real users. Life changed and I moved to the US, where I had to switch careers completely. Now I’m trying to come back to software development, but I’m struggling with a feeling that I’m “not good enough” anymore. The tech world has moved so fast, and companies like OpenAI, Meta, Epic, etc., feel way out of reach. So my question to the community is: How did you get started in your career? Did you ever feel like you weren’t good enough? How did you push through that and continue improving? Any honest advice would help a lot. Thanks.

A few days ago I installed beta 1 of macOS 26 Tahoe on a spare MacBook Pro 14-inch M4. Everything went well, and it looks okay (well, I don't like it at all, but hey-ho), and I shut it down. I started it up today, and it rejects my login password every time, then locks my account. When I click the link to "Restart and show password reset options" I'm asked for my Apple ID details, so I enter the correct email and password, then the MBP reboots and I'm back on the login screen with no indication that anything has changed. Guess I'm stuck now... FB18364657

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?

Every week or so, mouse driver locks up. The LED laser goes out and none of the buttons operate. It's a generic 7 button USB mouse with my USB keyboard still active. I do not know what precipitates the lockup and a system diagnostic request (Sft-Alt-Ctl-Cmd .) does not seem to yield anything useful. > ps -ef|grep -i mouse 501 579 1 0 Mon01PM ?? 0:04.42 /System/Library/ExtensionKit/Extensions/MouseExtension.appex/Contents/MacOS/MouseExtension code-block so the mouse extension was running at the time. With a "sudo kill -HUP 579" it did not restart. Also, switching to a different mouse did no good. The mouse driver was behaving like it was deadlocked and I didn't know the correct incantation for restarting it. I power cycle reset the box. SO: you have a mouse driver problem it cannot be just me It behaves like a deadlock, but not knowing how to get a mouse driver dump, I cannot tell what lock(s) its waiting for.

"TMS-90714: Invalid binary - The app contains one or more corrupted binaries" I am facing this error email from appstore since 15 days now and i tried 49 different things to fix this but it is not fixed. I migrated my app from storyboard controller to swiftUI and tried to submit to appstore and am not seeing the build in testflight and am receving the email error above. Can anyone please help, i will provide the required info, also i can pay couple hundered bucks.

Hello, my name is Natalia, I'm Ukrainian. Please tell me how to contact Apple to propose a new development? It's more about a startup.

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.

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.

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?

I am new to swift (developer from long ago) and have not been able to resolve an issue with IOS - I am building a text entry box with save / cancel buttons at bottom and a texteditor above all within a fixed size frame. It's all OK on macOS but when I try iOS the space taken by the form weirdly expands (beyond the size of the text editor) and end up pushing the save /cancel buttons below outside view. An extract of the code is here. I have tried all sorts of things like setting frame sizes, line limits, spacers, scrolling disable, but I can't stop the behaviour. Any ideas. Apologies if this is well known or my issue due to inexperience I just can't resolve it. private func editSource(in geometry: GeometryProxy) -> some View { NavigationStack{ Form { Section(header: Text("Source Name")) { TextEditor(text: $newSourceName) .font(.title3) .padding(5) .background( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10) .fill(.background) ) .textFieldStyle(PlainTextFieldStyle()) .frame(height: 50) .foregroundColor(.primary) .focused($isSourceFocused) } } HStack { Button("Save") { events[eventIndex].source = newSourceName isEditingSource = false isSourceFocused = false disableEdit = false } Spacer() Button("Cancel", role: .cancel) { isSourceFocused = false isEditingSource = false disableEdit = false } } .padding() .layoutPriority(1) } #if os(macOS) .scrollDisabled(true) .padding() .frame(height: 180) .frame(width: 240) .background(.gray) #else .frame(width: 240) .frame(height: 240) #endif .cornerRadius(10) .clipShape(RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10)) .overlay( RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 10) .stroke(Color.blue, lineWidth: 1) ) .position(sourceLocation) .offset(x: 0, y: 100) .zIndex(1) .onAppear() { isSourceFocused = true newSourceName = events[eventIndex].source } }

My app uses Foundation Models and Apple Pencil. The app runs great through Xcode; however, due to Apple Pencil support, it has to be run on a physical device. However, Swift Playgrounds on iPad doesn't support iOS 26. I was just wondering if this is something that can be mentioned in submission notes. eg. The app needs to be compiled in Xcode but run on a physical device.” Or should we expect iPadOS 26 support for Swift Playgrounds by the time of submission? Thank you!
