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.

In our Unity App for iOS build, when we opened the PDF from the app, it is automatically opening in landspace mode instead of portrait. In the android and windows apps, we are able to open in the portrait mode. We tried to make the changes in the project settings but it did not change.
Any way in which we can acheive this would be helpful for us.

The same occurs with iostrem if it is the first include mentioned.
Compiling in Xcode itself does not this problem, though.

I have a Swift package with a test suite that contains some tests implemented with Swift Testing. Locally, they run quickly, but when I run them on Semaphore CI (https://semaphore.io), the first Swift Testing test to execute incurs a performance penalty.
I'm running the tests with xcodebuild on iOS Simulator:
xcodebuild test \
-scheme "Scheme" \
-workspace Workspace.xcworkspace \
-destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 16,OS=18.2"
The scheme is configured to use a test plan that has parallelization disabled.
Here's an excerpt from the output showing what I'm seeing:
Test Suite 'All tests' started at 2025-04-03 07:47:37.328.
◇ Test run started.
↳ Testing Library Version: 102 (arm64-apple-ios13.0-simulator)
◇ Iteration 1 started.
◇ Suite <redacted> started.
◇ Test foo() started.
✔ Test foo() passed after 23.063 seconds.
When foo() is not the first test it runs in under 100 ms.
The reason that I have parallelization disabled is that I was initially seeing all of the tests in this suite incur a performance hit. But now it's clear that there must be some startup cost.
Things I'm wondering:
What is this startup penalty?
Why don't I encounter it locally?
Why is it attributed to the first test? (this seems like a bug)
My wild guesses around 1 so far have been…
maybe some simulator clone is booting. I've tried to rule that out by disabling parallelization, but maybe there's still something there.
maybe swift testing is getting loaded lazily and there's some kind of dynamic linking cost
Thoughts on 2…
maybe there's some one-time penalty when using swift testing that I've already incurred locally but that has not yet been incurred in the CI image
Guidance welcome!

For my app Find Any File, of which both releases and TestFlight betas were released many times, the TestFlight page tells me that several users have submitted crash reports. And I'm sure the same is true for the MAS releases:
(Yes, this shows quite recent ones, but I've seen similar supposed crash report submits in this list before.)
However, the actual "Crashes" listing on the appstoreconnect sites hasn't show any new crash reports for many months now:
(This is the entirety of crash reports I can get listed, even when removing all filters.)
Something appears to be stuck, on Apple's end.
The same issue is with Xcode's Organanizer window, for "Crashes": It also used to list only the same very old reports and nothing since May 2024. And just now, when I retried this in Xcode, I'm shown a weird error message I never saw before:
Error Downloading Crashes List
An error occurred… Access Restricted with adam id: 1207815783
And yes, I'm logged in just fine, under Prefs / Accounts.
How am I going to get this investigated? I had already sent an email about this to the Review team, who didn't react to it at all. DTS is only for Code level support, which this isn't.
Any help?

Hi, there's this point at which a beginner needs to beg for help.
Unable to open mach-O at path: /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Binaries/RenderBox/install/Root/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/RenderBox.framework/default.metallib Error:2
I get this everytime I select a month and year on a custom date picker, I believe because I try to force the ".generateChartData()" for the chart to update.
I guess the problem might be that the ".onAppear" and ".onChange" are conflicting with each other?
}
.onChange(of: showDatePicker) {
viewModel.startDate = selectedDate
viewModel.generateChartData()
}
}
.onAppear {
viewModel.generateChartData()
}

I am a developer working on an iOS enterprise application. When I deployed the release version to my device, it crashes upon startup. It works fine in debug mode on my device.
The app is an upgraded version of Xamarin Form to .NET MAUI.
I have attached a crash report.
I would appreciate any help/insights on how to resolve.

Routinely I'll have additional questions when browsing the Apple Developer Documentation. Would be really convenient if we could just submit that feedback from the documentation webpage itself, Apple could have the data, and potentially down the line address it; but at least you'd have the data.
For example, I'm looking at the documentation for AttributedString: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/attributedstringprotocol/index(_:offsetbycharacters:)
Now, I would like to know what would happen if the distance brought the position past the end, what would be returned. Because it's non-optional which I imagine would imply nil would be returned if the parameters were invalid. But it doesn't say.
I run into these small missing behavioral details with some regularity and imagine others do as well. It would be really great if we could just submit that discrepancy and perhaps see some numbers on the page of the total number of discrepancies submitted or something so we can see that it's not just us and have some peace of mind that based on the amount of feedback submitted there's a higher chance that this discrepancy will be addressed in the future.

We have a macOS application packaged as a .pkg file. To notarize it, we first code-sign individual library folders and the .app bundle using the following command:
codesign --force --deep --sign "Developer ID Application: &lt;Our Account Name&gt;, LLC (Team ID)" "Our_product.app"
Code Sign result for .app file:
Our_prodcut.app: valid on disk
Our_product.app: satisfies its Designated Requirement
We are using packages tool to create .pkg file with code signed .app file.
Steps followed once .pkg file is ready:
1. Product Sign:
productsign -sign "Developer ID Installer: &lt;Our Account Name&gt;" output.pkg signed-output.pkg
2. Submit for notorization:
`xcrun notarytool submit signed-outout.pkg --keychain-profile "notarytool-password" --wait

This browser extension is a doc reading enhancer for the Apple Developer website.
It supports i18n translation, hover link previews, and bilingual display.
Currently, it supports four languages: ja-JP, ko-KR, zh-CN, and zh-TW.
It works with Swift/SwiftUI/Foundation modules now, and it's expected to support Swift Test, Swift Charts, UIKit, Swift Playground, and XCode modules by the end of this month.
For more info, check out: https://appledocs.dev.
You can also visit https://appledocs.dev/progress to see translation progress and vote.
Note: It's only works on Chrome、Edge(In review)、Firefox(In review)

I just noticed that when you check the online documentation for Foundation using the delicious Objective-C flavor, some values are no more the expected ones:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/filemanager/copyitem(at:to:)?language=objc#return-value
true if the item was copied successfully or the file manager’s delegate stopped the operation deliberately. Returns false if an error occurred.
Considering that a BOOL used to be YES or NO for the last quarter of a century, I have the following question:
[Q] What is the idea behind the disturbing changes of the Objective-C documentation?
I am trying to integrate Apple Music API using MusicKit and need to generate a Developer Token. However, when I try to create a new key from the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section, the “Media Services (MusicKit, ShazamKit, Apple Music Feed)” option is grayed out. We are getting the error 'there are no identifiers available that can be associated with the key.' Although we did checkmark 'musickit' in app services.
I have already:
Enrolled in the paid Apple Developer Program
Created a valid App ID under Identifiers
Logged in as the Account Holder
Tried multiple browsers and devices
Despite this, the option remains disabled. Could you please enable this or let me know what further steps I need to take?
Thank you!

Hi all,
I'm trying to integrate Apple’s DeviceCheck API into my Flutter iOS app. I already have everything set up on the backend — the Apple private key, key ID, team ID, and DeviceCheck capability. The backend is generating and signing the JWT correctly and making requests to Apple.
However, I’m currently stuck on the frontend (Flutter):
👉 How can I generate the device_token required by the DeviceCheck API (via DCDevice.generateToken) in a Flutter iOS app?
I understand that DCDevice.generateToken() must be called from native Swift code. I previously attempted to use a MethodChannel to bridge this in Swift, but would prefer not to write or maintain native Swift code if possible.
I've looked for a prebuilt Flutter package to handle this, but nothing exists or is up-to-date on pub.dev.
Main Question:
Is there any Apple-supported way to generate the device_token for DeviceCheck from a Flutter app without writing Swift code manually?
If not, is DCDevice.generateToken() the only possible approach, and must I implement this via Swift and Flutter platform channels?
Thanks!
I'm on Mac Studio with Apple M1 Max and I recently upgrated to Sequoia 15.4. After that, Docker won't run anymore.
I tried almost all proposed solutions on the web to make Docker to work with Sequoia 15.4 (e.g. workaround at GitHub), without success.
Because of this, now I'm stuck in all of my development activities. For example, I cannot develop and deploy anymore my projects and applications.
What can I make to solve that?

Hi all,
I’m developing a watchOS app and have seen cases where the app is terminated by the system — for example, due to CPU usage limits being exceeded (watchdog termination). Here’s a portion of one of the crash reports:
Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGKILL)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000
Termination Reason: CAROUSEL 2343432205
<RBSTerminateContext| domain:10 code:0x8BADF00D explanation:[app<app_name>:898] Failed to terminate gracefully after 5.0s
ProcessVisibility: Foreground
ProcessState: Running
WatchdogEvent: process-exit
WatchdogVisibility: Foreground
WatchdogCPUStatistics: (
"Elapsed total CPU time (seconds): 11.280 (user 9.800, system 1.480), 100% CPU",
"Elapsed application CPU time (seconds): 5.162, 46% CPU"
) reportType:CrashLog maxTerminationResistance:Interactive>
My questions:
1.) Is there any way to get notified (via Crashlytics, Xcode Organizer, or any other reporting mechanism) when this type of system-level termination happens — similar to how we’re notified of crashes?
2.)Is there any way for a watchOS app to receive runtime warnings from the system when it’s about to exceed CPU or memory limits — similar to UIApplication.didReceiveMemoryWarningNotification on iOS?
Thanks in advance!
