We have an app that needs Accessibility permissions, to use APIs to listen key board and mouse events.(CGEventTapCreate). The first version is working as expected but after the app update, AXIsProcessTrustedWithOptions returns that app has no accessibility permission but System preferences shows it as enabled.

Hello,
Does universal apps work on macOS 10.9 or is there any minimum OS requirement.
The minimum OS our app is supported is Mac OS 10.9, and we plan to support from OS 10.9 to macOS 11 for both Intel and AppleSilicon using a single package.
Once ported to Apple Silicon, and have the Universal binaries created, will these universal apps work on Mac OS 10.9
Hello,
We have submitted a request for Developer Transition Kit and haven't got any update, do we need to submit the request again. How can we check the status of our request.

Hello,
We are trying to develop an application, which is like a custom installer app, where it asks for certain user input or performs certain checks before the actual package in run.
As the package needs to be run as sudo or with priviliges , (using NSTask with sudo is giving error that needs ask pass).
So using AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges to perform install pkg using /usr/sbin/Installer. This works .
But the documentation says AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges is deprecated and also console has a message
AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges and AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivilegesExternalForm are deprecated and functionality will be removed soon - please update your application
What is the replacement API or approach to install a pkg from a user launched app.
The deprecation Notes says Deprecated
Use a launchd-launched helper tool and/or the Service Management framework for this functionality.
But how to use this for installation case?
Hello,
When trying to load our Audio kext, kextutil or kextload are not returning the user not approved error when trying to load the kexts. It doesn't return any error but kexts are not loaded.
On prior versions of OS (starting 10.13), they returned error 27, when trying to load the kext .
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/technotes/tn2459/_index.html
We try to check for the error code and then instruct user through our own prompt with instructions on how to "Allow". Now since it is not returning any error, we are not able to capture this case.
Any inputs here on how to get the error /status that kext needs user approval from these kext loading commands.
Hello,
We are seeing an issue with security preferences that it is has an error when trying launch security preferences to allow system extension or kext .
We have tried deleting these plists
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences*
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systempreferences*
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.systempreferences*
But didn't help.
This is happening on beta7 on Intel systems and also on Developer Transition Kit too.
Hello,
Application is failing to get CPU information when executing commands from an emulated app.
Trying to get system information using systemprofiler SPHardwareDataType, when this is run on developer Transition kit from an emulated app, there is no cputype info available in the returned xml. When the same is executed from universal app, it has a valid value for cpu_type .(this code works on Intel based systems without any issues )
There are other dependencies to be sorted out, before our app can be made Universal.
Meanwhile how can the CPU information for Apple silicon be obtained programatically from an emulated app.
Hello,
we have an app that has UI displaying images(screen captures). These alerts displays correctly on 10.15, but the images are blurred on Mac OS 11 .
Hello,
with Safari version 14.0.1, it is observed that sometimes the Safari App extension is getting removed(it is not present in the list) randomly.
On restarting the host app, it is getting added again, but it gets removed after sometime. Not seeing any crash or any console message.
Any one else seeing this issue.
Hello,
Safari user Agent is showing as Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10156) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/14.0.1 Safari/605.1.15
Instead of OS 11 it is reporting as 10.15
On older betas it was getting reported as Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 11_0.
Is this bug or intentional?
