Apologies if this isn't tagged right but dev tools and services seemed the most appropriate since this is related to the workbench Ad Tester tool. I'm seeing a behavior where the preview link is not being generated. Specifically, I am seeing a POST request to the following URL consistently fail: https://iadworkbench.apple.com/adtester/api/v1/ads/previewLink?orgId=1127861 Variations/scenarios I have tried so far: All possible ad format choices on all possible devices All options for the placement type Both third party and uploaded creative sources Uploaded creative sources appear to be failing to upload as well A simple div with a "hello world" content fails as a third party creative source Multiple apple accounts I created a new account specifically to test if my primary apple ID was experiencing issues with this Multiple browsers I have tried multiple versions of Chrome/Firefox/Safari I tested with and without browser extensions to determine whether an extension was interfering or not Clearing session/local storage along with cookies I also created new profiles in browsers to verify that I was getting a fresh browser environment In all of these cases, the API request to generate a preview link is consistently failing with a 500 error code. It's worth noting that the web preview option works, but this isn't a truly accurate test environment and can't be solely relied on when testing ad content. I don't know exactly when this started happening as I have not used it in the last couple of weeks but I have used the workbench ad tester extensively in the past the same way I have been trying with my current test without issue. That coupled with the fact that the request for the preview link consistently fails in all of the test scenarios I've outlined above leads me to believe there is a problem with the API that is responsible for generating the preview links.

Hi! I wanted to use Lottie in my swiftpm app, but I've been running into errors and I'm not sure if it's possible. When I try to run the app, it crashes and I get errors saying that the library isn't loaded and the files aren't found (basically these: https://github.com/lottie-react-native/lottie-react-native/issues/373 , https://github.com/airbnb/lottie-ios/issues/2233 ). But moving the framework file into the PackageFrameworks folder doesn't work, and also I'm getting the error that swiftpm cannot distribute packages containing binary frameworks and from what I understand that just isn't something that swiftpm can do. So I was wondering if anyone knows any workarounds to this, or if I should just ditch Lottie? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a newbie to on-demand resources and I feel like I'm missing something very obvious. I've successfully tagged and set up ODR in my Xcode project, but now I want to upload the assets to my own server so I can retrieve them from within the app, and I can't figure out how to export the files I need. I'm following the ODR Guide and I'm stuck at Step #4, after I've selected my archive in the Archives window it says to "Click the Export button", but this is what I see: As shown in the screenshot, there is no export button visible. I have tried different approaches, including distributing to appstore connect, and doing a local development release. The best I've been able to do is find a .assetpack folder inside the archive package through the finder, but uploading that, or the asset.car inside it, just gives me a "cannot parse response" error from the ODR loading code. I've verified I uploaded those to the correct URL. Can anyone walk me through how to save out the file(s) I need, in a form I can just upload to my server? Thanks, Pete

The app I'm working on has iOS 16.0 as target. Recently Live Activities support was added, but then it started crashing when running on iOS 16.0 devices. After some investigation, I've found that the culprit was the presence of NSUserActivityTypeLiveActivity and WidgetCenter.UserInfoKey.activityID, even though they were inside an @available(iOS 17.2, *) block. If I comment these two variables, the app work as expected. I've also tried adding #if canImport(ActivityKit) around the code, but without success. But if the @available isn't working, how can I prevent this? It looks like a bug, since the documentation says that NSUserActivityTypeLiveActivity is supported but iOS 14.0+, but I'm pretty sure it was introduced on 16.1. This is the only output I get with the crash: dyld[66888]: Symbol not found: _$s9WidgetKit0A6CenterC11UserInfoKeyV10activityIDSSvgZ Referenced from: <D6EFF120-2681-34C1-B261-8F3F7B388238> /Users/<redacted>/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/8B5B4DC9-3D54-4C91-8C88-E705E851CA0F/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/DB6671FF-CB07-4570-BD63-C851D94FAF29/<redacted>.app/<redacted>.debug.dylib Expected in: <C5E72BB5-533F-3658-A987-E849888F4DFC> /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_20A360/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 16.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Frameworks/WidgetKit.framework/WidgetKit

Subject: Assistance Needed with Enabling Speech Recognition Entitlement for iOS App Hi everyone, I’m seeking guidance regarding the Speech Recognition entitlement for my iOS app using Capacitor. Our App and we submitted a request to Apple Developer Support four days ago, but have not yet received a response. 🧩 Summary of the issue: Our app uses the Capacitor speech recognition plugin (@capacitor-community/speech-recognition) to listen for native voice input on iOS. We have added both of the required keys in Info.plist: NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription NSMicrophoneUsageDescription We previously had a duplicate microphone key, which caused the system to silently skip the permission request. After removing the duplicate, we did briefly see the microphone permission prompt appear. However, in our most recent builds, the app launches without any prompts, even on a fresh install. The plugin reports: available = true permissionStatus = granted Despite this, no speech input is ever received, and the listener returns nothing. We believe the app is functioning correctly at a code level (plugin loads, no errors, correct Info.plist), but suspect the missing Speech Recognition entitlement is blocking actual access to the speech system. 🔎 What we need help with: How can we confirm whether the Speech Recognition entitlement is enabled for our App ID? If it’s not enabled, is there a way to escalate or re-submit the request? Our app is currently stuck until this entitlement is granted. Thank you for your time and any guidance you can offer!

I am a new user of PyCharm, but have years of experience with MacOS, python and similar. My set up is MacBook Pro M1, 32GB ram, MacOS Sequoia 15.2, and PyCharm Pro latest. Path to projects leads to an external SSD via usb-c. I have set up some projects, each using python 3.12 in a venv. The projects work for a while then “lose” a module (module not found). I have gone through every troubleshooting method the built-in AI and web search have come up with. The first module to disappear is docx2txt. I created a new project and it worked, for a couple of days then the error returned. The docx2txt module could not be found working within or outside of PyCharm. In site-packages there is no “docx2txt” folder, only an “info” folder containing WHEEL and its companions. For the most recent disappearance, I noticed the package used distutils. I cloned the docx2txt project from GitHub and updated setup.py to use setup tools instead of distutils, and installed it. Python invoked from the command line can import it, but not from PyCharm. When I run the project from PyCharm, the interpreter cannot find dotenv. I have lost days of work time at this point so I am a bit worried. Advice on what to look at and for would be great.

I am developing a Flutter app for food delivery (a multivendor e-commerce restaurant app). In the vendor app (Android), I successfully implemented a background notification that stays active until the vendor responds with either Accept or Decline. This works fine on Android, but I cannot get the same functionality working on iOS. My requirements: Vendor should receive a background notification. The notification should include action buttons (Accept / Decline). It should remain active until the vendor takes action. My questions: Is this possible to implement in iOS with Flutter? If yes, what is the recommended way (e.g., firebase_messaging, flutter_local_notifications, flutter_foreground_task, or native iOS integration)? Are there any iOS restrictions I should consider compared to Android background services? I built this for Android using firebase_messaging + flutter_foreground_task + flutter_local_notifications. On iOS, I tried setting up firebase_messaging and flutter_local_notifications, but I’m unable to keep the notification persistent with Accept/Decline action buttons. I expected similar behavior to Android, but it seems iOS has more restrictions around background services and notification handling. Dependencies I am using (relevant ones): firebase_core: ^3.8.0 firebase_messaging: ^15.1.5 flutter_local_notifications: ^17.2.2 flutter_foreground_task: ^8.17.0 get: ^4.7.2 shared_preferences: ^2.3.2

I'm calling this command to export archive: xcodebuild -exportArchive -archivePath .build/XYZ.xcarchive -exportPath .build/XYZ.ipa -exportOptionsPlist Authenticator/ExportOptions.plist -quiet -allowProvisioningUpdates Here is my exportOptions file content &lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"&gt; &lt;plist version="1.0"&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;method&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;app-store-connect&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;signingStyle&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;automatic&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;teamID&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;ABCD&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/plist&gt; Most of the time this command fail with this error: error: exportArchive No Accounts error: exportArchive No signing certificate "iOS Distribution" found What we found is that our Apple ID just disappear from Xcode and we need to add it again manually. So there are two questions here: Why Apple ID account dissapears and how I can fix this? Is there an option to not use Apple ID account in Xcode and for example to use -authenticationKeyID flags of xcodebuild? Just to mention this happens only on our CI machine and not locally.

I am a solo developer building a cross-platform voice assistant app using Capacitor (with HTML, JS) and Xcode for the iOS version. The app is called "Echo Eyes," and it already functions well as a Progressive Web App (PWA). However, the iOS build has been completely blocked due to persistent sandbox permission errors from macOS during the CocoaPods framework embedding phase. This issue has caused severe disruption to my project and personal well-being, and I am writing to formally request assistance in identifying a clear solution. I am not a beginner and have followed all known best practices, forums, and Apple guidance without success. What I’ve Built So Far: Fully working PWA version of the app (voice input, HTML/JS interface) Capacitor initialized with ID: com.echo.eyes.voice Capacitor iOS platform added with CocoaPods App runs fine until Xcode reaches: [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks The Exact Problem: Sandbox: bash(12319) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Shared/projects/Echo_Mobile/ios/App/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-App/Pods-App-frameworks.sh Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code Clarification: This is not an HTML/JS issue. The failure occurs in Xcode long before web assets are embedded into the bundle. The shell script /Pods-App-frameworks.sh cannot be read due to macOS sandbox restrictions. Everything I’ve Tried: Gave Xcode and Terminal Full Disk Access Ran: sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine on the entire Pods directory Added /bin/bash and /bin/sh to Full Disk Access (after confirming the exact shell via $SHELL) Attempted to disable Gatekeeper via Terminal: sudo spctl --master-disable (confirmed not effective without GUI toggle) Tried relocating project to /Users/Shared/projects/ Cleaned build folder, removed derived data, reinstalled pods Debugged shell usage with: echo "▶️ Embedding under shell: $SHELL" in the [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks script Attempted to grant shell access to Documents Folder, Desktop, and more via Files &amp; Folders Current State: Despite following all known and recommended steps, Xcode continues to return the same sandbox error. The shell script that embeds the CocoaPod frameworks is denied permission to read its own contents by macOS. What I Am Asking For: Is this a known issue in current versions of macOS or Xcode regarding sandbox denial for shell execution inside Pods? Is there a recommended method to grant /bin/bash or /bin/sh permission to read and run these scripts under Xcode without compromising system security? Is moving the project outside /Users (e.g. to /Projects) the only real workaround? Are there official Apple workarounds or entitlements available for developers encountering this? Personal Note: This issue has caused significant emotional and physical distress. I’m building this app as a personal healing tool and companion. I’ve poured months of work into this and done everything I can to follow Apple’s development guidelines. I’m not asking for hand-holding — only a clear, respectful response confirming whether this is expected behavior and what can be done to resolve it. Thank you for your time and understanding.

Hi, I'm generating MusicKit JWT tokens on my backend side and using it on the client side to query the Apple Music API. One concern I have is accidentally over issuing the scope of this JWT, resulting in accidental access more services than intended like DeviceCheck or APNS. Other than using separate keys for MusicKit and other services, is there a way to limit the generated JWT to only the Apple Music API (https://api.music.apple.com/v1/*) using the JWT payload scope?

I'm experiencing an inconsistent behavior with the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt in my Cordova iOS app using the admob-plus-cordova and cordova-plugin-consent plugins. Environment: Cordova iOS app Plugins: admob-plus-cordova, cordova-plugin-consent iOS Simulator: 16.0 Physical device: iphone 12 17.5.1 Xcode version: 16.2 Issue: The ATT permission prompt appears correctly in the iOS Simulator but fails to show on physical devices. I've verified that: Info.plist includes NSUserTrackingUsageDescription The ATT request is triggered before initializing AdMob The device is running iOS 14.5 or later Expected behavior: ATT prompt should appear on first launch on physical devices (as it does in the simulator) Actual behavior: ATT prompt appears correctly in simulator [attach your screenshot] ATT prompt never appears on physical device Troubleshooting steps tried: Verified app hasn't previously requested ATT permission Confirmed tracking is enabled in device Settings -&gt; Privacy -&gt; Tracking Verified implementation order (ATT request before AdMob initialization) Any insights on why this might be happening or additional debugging steps would be greatly appreciated.

I created a fairplay.cer file using the below commands : openssl genrsa -out private_key.pem 1024 openssl req -new -key private_key.pem -out request.csr Here, I manually entered the Country, Organization, etc. I was supposed to use the below commands to make the same : openssl genrsa -aes256 -out privatekey.pem 1024 opensslreq-new-sha1-keyprivatekey.pem-outcertreq.csr-subj "/CN=SubjectName /OU=OrganizationalUnit /O=Organization /C=US" Owing to this, I am unable to create a .p12 file through Keychain Access. I thus want to generate a new fairplay.cer file for Fairplay 4.x. I want to revoke the certificate in order to generate a new one (as it has a limit of 1 certificate for Fairplay) Requesting developer support from Apple. Have raised multiple requests over the past 4 days.

Hello, I'm developing a macOS application that uses the Virtualization framework to run Linux virtual machines (specifically Ubuntu and Fedora) on Apple Silicon Macs. I've noticed that while the macOS host properly supports all trackpad gestures, the two-finger tap gesture for right-click does not work within the Linux guest. Only the primary click is recognized. This behavior is consistent across different Linux distributions and desktop environments (GNOME, KDE, etc.). I would like to confirm: Is the macOS Virtualization framework expected to support trackpad gestures such as two-finger tap for right-click within Linux guest VMs? If not currently supported, is there a known workaround to enable right-click functionality for the trackpad in Linux guests? (e.g., configuration changes in the VM, Linux kernel input modules, or framework-level adjustments.) Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
