None of my existing apps (both in-AppStore and in-development) nor even a brand new WatchOS app can be installed to my Apple Watch. While using Xcode to build and deploy to my Watch, I get this:
”Waiting to reconnect to Apple Watch
Xcode will continue when the operation completes.”
However, this dialog persists and never completes.
I’m running all of the latest: MacOS 14 beta 4, Xcode 15 beta 5, Watch OS 10 beta 4, iOS 17 beta 4.
I’ve tried resetting my Watch (with “Erase All” option) and restarting the Mac, the phone and the watch.
Any help?

Developing along, no problems - and then suddenly:

I have NO problem building & installing this app to my iPad, nor any problems installing other of my apps to this iPhone - it’s just this app on the phone that’s messed up.
I’ve restarted everything multiple times. I’ve cleared out both

Please help! I’m 100% blocked from releasing a new version of our app, which is 100% ready to upload!

Somehow, I am no longer able to connect to the AppStore in my development build. On a different device, I am running a production build (downloaded from the AppStore) and it works fine. In Xcode console, for the dev build, I get the following:
Error enumerating all current transactions: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=509 "No active account" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=No active account}
It's been several months since I've worked on this particular project, and I can't recall what I did to enable the sandbox in the first place. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Notwithstanding, on each device, I have gone into Settings -> App Store -> Sandbox Account and selected "Sign Out".
Within Xcode, there is no Sandbox entry in any Entitlement file that I can find. Under Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme -> Run (Debug) -> Options, the StoreKit Configuration is set to None.
In addition, 2 years ago Eskimo posted the following command that supposedly identifies if a build is Sandbox-enabled:
codesign -d --entitlements - --xml /Applications/PCalc.app | plutil -convert xml1 -o - -
I ran this command on my .app - and there was no hint of a sandbox entitlement.
And finally, I suspect my "No active account" error is related to Xcode's sandbox feature because, when I tap on my app's Restore Purchases link, I am presented with an os-level dialog box "Sign in with Apple ID". If I do that, then the Settings -> App Store -> Sandbox Account gets filled in...
I'm at a loss. Any help will be appreciated.

Using this command line incantation:
AppClipCodeGenerator generate -u https://myapp.app/clip -i 9 -o ~/Desktop/appClip.svg
everything works as expected. However, using this one:
AppClipCodeGenerator generate -u https://myapp.app/clip?p=1 -i 9 -o ~/Desktop/appClip.svg
ie, just trying to pass in 1 parameter via "?p=1", it fails with
no matches found: https://myapp.app/clip?p=1
In my case, clip is a Servlet which expects the parameter named p.
Any ideas?
Simply going to Settings -> Music causes the Settings app to freeze.
Also, I can no longer sync music from my Mac to my iPhone - it never shows the "Sync" button.
And, if that's not ugly enough all by itself - none of the music that's already loaded on my phone responds to the Play button within Music.

I’ve been working with Localizable, and I’m loving it. Unfortunately, upon upgrading to beta 7 this morning, it no longer works on my dev iPhone:
Unable to load .strings file: CFBundle 0x281350380 </private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/743432E9-60F9-4C2D-BA6C-4FF79D4EB467/Dvn8.app> (executable, loaded) / Localizable: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "Unexpected character b at line 1" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=Unexpected character b at line 1, kCFPropertyListOldStyleParsingError=Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "Conversion of string failed." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=Conversion of string failed.}}
I’ve investigated this ‘unexpected character b’ - and cannot figure out what this message is talking about.
What I see on the screen is the key, instead of the localized string.
Using Xcode 15.0 beta 7 (15A5229h) and iOS 17.0 beta 7 (21A5319a)
What makes this completely befuddling is that the Localizable DOES still work on my M1 iPad (also running today’s iPadOS 17 beta 7 - as well as on my older 2015 iPad running iOS 16 - and even on my iPhone 7 running iOS 15. Same exact target, different devices. iPhone running 17 beta 7 fails, all others still work.
I’ve tried powering down everything, remove / reinstall, etc. Nothing works.

I built a quick WatchOS app that uses an @Model to populate a List within a NavigationSplitView. After several minutes, the List displays the data which is in my CloudKit database - so far so good. Unfortunately, when I attempt to tap on any of the List items, the detail view is never displayed. Here is the ContentView:
import SwiftUI
import SwiftData
struct ContentView: View {
@Query(sort: \Squats.date, order: .reverse) var exercises: [Squats]
@Environment(\.modelContext) var modelContext
@State var selectedExercise: Squats? = nil
var body: some View {
if exercises.count == 0 {
Text("CloudKit not yet loaded")
} else {
NavigationSplitView {
List (exercises, selection: $selectedExercise) { ex in
Text(ex.date.format("E, MM/dd"))
}
} detail: {
Text(selectedExercise?.exercise ?? "Nothing set")
}
.padding()
}
}
}
And here is the model view:
import Foundation
import SwiftData
@Model
class Squats {
var date: Date = Date()
var exercise: String = ""
init(date: Date, exercise: String) {
self.date = date
self.exercise = exercise
}
}
I’ve tried this on a number of my in-production DBs, as well as this development-only “Squats” DB - same lack of detail view on all.
Thoughts?

I have a .stl in “Standard Tesselated Geometry File Format” - how do I get this into a format which VisionOS can use?
Notes:
double-clicking on the .stl launches Xcode and shows the Scene graph
I’ve added it to a template VisionOS app. It comes in with a gray icon that is otherwise identical to the blue icon that the template creates (named “Scene”) - but I cannot figure out how to get the model contained in the .stl to be recognized.
Reality Composer Pro will not open the .stl file
Many thanks!
Apple docs for RealityView state:
You can also use the optional update closure on your RealityView to update your RealityKit content in response to changes in your view’s state."
Unfortunately, I've not been able to get this to work.
All of my 3D content is programmatically generated - I'm not using any external 3D modeling tools. I have an object that conforms to @ObservableObject. Its @Published variables define the size of a programmatically created Entity. Using the initializer values of these @Published variables, the 1st rendering of the RealityView { content in } works like a charm.
Basic structure is this:
var body: some View {
RealityView { content in
// create original 3D content using initial values of @Published variables - works perfect
} update: { content in
// modify 3D content in response to changes of @Published variables - never works
}
Debug statements show that the update: closure gets called as expected - based upon changes in the viewModel's @Published variables. However, the 3D content never changes - even though the 3D content is based upon the @Published variables.
Obviously, if the @Published variables are used in the 1st rendering, and the update: closure is called whenever changes occur to these @Published variables, then why isn't the update: closure updating the RealityKit content as described in the Apple docs?
I've tried everything I can think of - including removing all objects in the update: closure and replacing them with the same call that populated them in the 1st rendering. Debug statements show that the new @Published values are correct as expected when the update: closure is called, but the RealityView never changes.
Known limitation of the beta? Programmer error? Thoughts?

According to AppStoreConnect, one of my apps is benchmarking above the 75% percentile for crashes - at 1.89%.
Using Xcode’s Organizer window, I’m able to see that 98% of them are identified as:
SwiftUI: EnvironmentObject.error() + 236
Cntl-Click / Show in Finder / Cntl-Click / Show Package Contents / Logs reveals the following:
Termination Reason: SIGNAL 5 Trace/BPT trap: 5
Terminating Process: exc handler [5454]
…and in some of the crash logs, I find this:
Kernel Triage:
VM - (arg = 0x0) pmap_enter retried due to resource shortage
VM - (arg = 0x0) pmap_enter retried due to resource shortage
What is the graceful way to handle a “resource shortage” when the crash logs show that the error occurs immediately upon app launch - ie, while still declaring .environmentObject()s upon the main ContentView()?
Any help?

I’m getting this very weird error (send this bug to NSUKVS) when trying to get data from my app into both a lock-screen widget and an Apple Watch app.
Most documentation and online tutorials suggest using App Groups and UserDefaults(suiteName:). I have implemented this and can write to and read from my iOS app to UserDefaults(suiteName:) - no problem.
However, despite the fact that the UserDefaults(suiteName:) is found on both the lock-screen widget and the Apple Watch app - there is never any data found within.
One month ago, Eskimo posted (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/710966) that the UserDefaults won’t work in modern devices because the WatchOS app won’t run in an extension on the phone, so we need to use another device-to-device mechanism.
OK, so hoping that one solution will work for both targets, I built a tiny app that intends to implement NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore. (Please note that I have added the iCloud Key-value storage entitlement to the app target.)
Import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
var uks = NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore()
var body: some View {
Text(readData()).onAppear { writeData() }
}
func writeData() {
uks.set("Hello", forKey:"name")
uks.synchronize()
}
func readData() -> String {
return uks.string(forKey:"name") ?? "n/a"
}
}
Unfortunately, I’m getting this:

Which begs the question:
just how, exactly, does one “send a bug to NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore”??? 🤣
Is this possibly a problem with my AppleID? I ask because I’m getting really weird different results from my app which is currently in the App Store - depending upon if I’ve downloaded my app from Xcode or if I’ve downloaded it from the AppStore. Just wondering if my AppleID has somehow gotten into a corrupted state because of my Promo code (StoreKit) testing…
Any and all ideas / suggestions welcomed…
One of my intents responds to an optional parameter. The parameter is defined as an enum with 4 values (case today, week, month, year). I have 2 AppShortcut phrases defined, one that does not specify the parameter and another which does.
AppShortcut(intent: TopCardsIntent(),
phrases: [
"show \(.applicationName) top cards",
"show \(.applicationName) top cards for \(\.$timeframe)",
],
systemImageName: "atom"
)
The 1st phrase (with no $timeframe) ALWAYS is interpreted by Siri as a Safari lookup.
The 2nd phrase ALWAYS works, but only when I don't specify timeframes '.today' or '.year'. When I do specify '.today' or '.year' - I again always get a Safari lookup.
I've tried all sorts of goofy debugging. Thinking maybe it's because '.today' is 1st and '.year' is the last enum value defined, I added a .decade value. So, the '.decade' works perfect, but '.year' still doesn't. #RandomAF
There are lots of AppShortcut phrases which I'm trying to use that always result in Safari lookups. It almost feels as if Safari has it's own set of AppShortcut phrases, and these are evaluated before mine.
Any ideas?

Can I transmit a crash log off a user’s device if my app crashes?
The only docs I’ve seen around this so far refer to 2 use cases: a) the device is local and can be connected to Xcode, and b) the end user can access my app’s crash log via Settings -> Privacy -> Analytics -> Analytics Data and then they can share that with me (via email or AirDrop).
However, in AppStoreConnect, we are asked to identify any type of data that is sent to us by the app: ie, where “Collect - refers to transmitting data off the device”
If I navigate as follows: AppStoreConnect -> App Privacy -> Data Types (edit) -> Yes / Next -> Data Collection -> Diagnostics - then one of the options is -> Crash Data (such as crash logs)
I cannot imagine that either of the aforementioned use cases correspond to this Data Collection / Diagnostic data - and so this begs the question: to what does this disclosure item refer? Ie, how can I automatically transmit a crash log so that I don’t have to inconvenience my user after they experience the inconvenience of an app crash?
I've implemented 2 different AppIntents, each includes their own AppShortcutsProvider with phrases unique to each AppIntent. Individually, they work great. But, when I try to include both in my app, only the last one defined works.
In my ContentView.onAppear(), I've tried calling:
ShortcutsOne.updateAppShortcutParameters()
ShortcutsTwo.updateAppShortcutParameters()
and only those defined in ShortcutsTwo are recognized by Siri.
I've also tried including ShortcutsTwo's AppShortcut(intent:, phrases) into ShortcutOne's AppShortcutsProvider (since it's static var appShortcuts: is defined as an array, ie, [Shortcuts] - but that doesn't work either.
Overall, I've found the system to be rather temperamental. ie, I have had to power off my iPhone & reboot my Mac to get changes recognized.
Any thoughts on how to get 2 or more AppIntents to work in one app?
