I am trying to determine if, as a government organization, we need to have a DUNS. From the Apple site: "I am trying to determine if, as a government organization, we need to have a DUNS." https://developer.apple.com/support/D-U-N-S/How do I go about enrolling without a DUNS?

What happens to an app when the enterprise provisioning profile that's it's built with expires?A client I'm working for wants to use their enterprise account to provide an app to their remote staff. These are BYOD devices, and they don't want to fully manage them, just install and maintain this app (and possibly others but for now just a sigle app.)Does the app stop working when the provisioning profile it's built with expires? If not, what does happen?If it does stop working, what's the best practice for getting an updated app into remote staff's hands prior to the expiry of the provisioning profile?And can we use MDM to simply deliver and update the enterprise app on remote staff's devices without taking over other aspects of managing their iDevices?About the only other thing we might want MDM for is managing proxy settings, and possibly setting up a VPN.

So recently I've downloaded this app called "Setbeat" and trusted their enterprise. The app has been working for about a week and then a popup comes up when I open the application stating "Untrusted Enterprise Developer". Seeing this, I went back to Settings>General>Device Management and pressed on my enterprise. There is a blue button that says "Verify App" and under, it states that Setbeat is not verified. I pressed on the verify button and a little verifying loading bar comes up for about half a second before it disappears. To my suprise, the app is still unverified and I still cannot use it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Is it possible to renew distribution certificate, without any coder involved ?Our distribution certificat expires in two days. At the moment there are no tech people in the company.How can I renew the certificate ?Thanks

Hi all. I hope that someone is able to provide some advice:We create custom apps for various businesses and their partners. We can't distribute these apps on the app store as they're custom B2B apps. We don't like the Enterprise program user experience (manually trusting the developer on the phone) for the end users it's just horrible UX, and most of our clients don't use MDM.So, we're left with one option, which is to get our clients to sign up for Apple Business Manager, and have the app distributed using redeemable codes.The problem though is that most of our clients have users in various different countires. If a client from USA signs up for Apple Business Manager and generates redeemable codes for the app we built for them, then those codes will only be redeemable by those with USA Apple IDs.Therefore a client would need to create separate Apple Business Manager accounts in each country where they have employees, so they can give redeemable codes to those people.But, it's impossible to create an Apple Business Manager account if you don't have a DUNS number, and most businesses only have a DUNS number for the country where their headquarters are. Total catch 22 situation.It's therefore funtionally impossible to distribute apps via Apple Business Manager using redeemable codes for a company that has employees in more than one country. Most businesses have MDM for their corporate devices, but asking people to enroll their personal device on a company MDM is madness - they'll simply never do it, and given that business are moving more and more towards 'Bring your own device' - this issue seems like a really annoying oversight by Apple.It would solve this issue if Apple would allow redeemable codes to be redeemed in any country where the app is available.Does anyone have any advice, or is there sometihng we're missing here?

We are currently enrolling in the Apple Developer Enterprise Program. However, after 5 working days since we submitted our application, we still haven't received any status update. We tried to contact Apple Developer Program Support, but No response was received either (more than 2 working days). We've read the Apple Developer Enterprise Program carefully. of the registration requirements and make sure we meet them all. We would like to receive a possible recommendation to continue our Apple Developer Enterprise Program enrollment. Thanks.

With iOS 14 devices we can see that Many MDM Commands Fails with error " Couldn’t communicate with a helper application." . This Error is more frequent in InstallApplication , InstallProfile command , but other MDM commads also face the same issue. I have attach sample response from some devices. We have seen this error in previous version of iOS but with iOS 14 these are very frequent.

We have an iOS In-House app that is not installing using the OTA method. The app is no longer able to be installed using the itms-services:// protocol. The last time I tried it was in November 2020 and it worked then. The uri looks like this itms-services://?action=download-manifest&amp;url=https: //dl.dropbox.com/s/abcdef123/manifest.plist . Our Enterprise certificate and profiles are up to date and valid. I was able to install the app to an iphone using Xcode and an Ad-hoc deployment of the app. The dropbox links are all shared and accessible to anyone with the link. When I copy the itms-services uri to Safari on an iPhone I get the popup ... "Open this page in "iTunes"?" with the options Cancel and Open. When I click Open the popup goes away but then nothing else happens. The app does not install. I connected to XCode Console to view the log messages for the device while clicking Open on the popup and the only message that stood out to me was .. Process: itunesstored Message: NetworkRequestQueue: Received unknown action: private PID: 162 Does Apple still support OTA installs for enterprise developers? What else can I do to troubleshoot?

Is it possible to hide the Phone app on supervised iPhones? I am trying to understand this sentence from Apple documentation: "Show or Hide apps: MDM can configure exactly which apps can be used. All built-in and third-party apps can be hidden with the exception of Phone (on iPhone only) and Settings." Is this saying that Phone cannot be hidden at all? Or that it can only be hidden on iPhones? Thank you!

MacOS ver. Monterey 12.1 https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/mdm A device management profile is transmitted to the device with reference to the above link. Both iOS and iPadOS devices operate normally in general enroll and DEP enroll. In MacOS, Enroll operates normally in Userchannels. This time, I purchased a MacMini device equipped with Apple Silicon and tried to test DEP registration, but an error occurs as follows. "unable to decrypt encrypted profile" Should Mac's DEP registration use a different payload profile method? Let me know if you know something to refer to. thank you.

The MAC device is a device that has been manually added to the Apple Business Manager. DEP profiles are normally installed in both iOS and iPadOS. Profile descript error occurs only when attempting DEP of MacOS. (If you look at the picture, a decryption error occurs in the remote device registration step.) I asked Apple's customer center about this problem,  and it is said that it is caused by the lack of a key called "automatic registration on the MDM server" The key cannot be found in the Apple official document related to the profile below. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/mdm/ Information received during DEP enroll of Macmini using Apple silicon. {    'LANGUAGE': 'en_US',    'PRODUCT': 'Macmini 9,1',    'SERIAL': 'CXXXXXXXXXXV',    'UDID': '0XXXXX27-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XZXXXXXXXXX',    'VERSION': '21C52' } Information received during DEP enroll of iPAD {    'LANGUAGE': 'en_US',    'PRODUCT': 'iPad5,4',    'SERIAL': 'DXXXXXXXXXXQ',    'UDID': '9aXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX6d',    'VERSION': '19C63' } Profile to be transmitted to the device (same as MacOS, iOS, IPadOS) {    'AccessRights': 8191,    'CheckInURL': 'https://apm.xxxxx.com/checkin',    'CheckOutWhenRemoved': True,    'IdentityCertificateUUID': '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000',    'PayloadDescription': 'MDM Profile',    'PayloadDisplayName': 'MDM',    'PayloadIdentifier': 'com.xxxxx.xxxxxxx.mdm',    'PayloadOrganization': 'MDM provider',    'PayloadType': 'com.apple.mdm',    'PayloadUUID': '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000',    'PayloadVersion': 1,    'PromptUserToAllowBootstrapTokenForAuthentication': True,   'ServerCapabilities': ['com.apple.mdm.per-user-connections','com.apple.mdm.bootstraptoken'],    'ServerURL': 'https://apm.xxxxx.com/server',    'SignMessage': False,    'Topic': 'com.apple.mgmt.External.206bfa63-f76a-4381-9e50-6f74241d14d9' }  Because it uses the same profile structure, it is not understood that iOS/iPadOS operates normally and errors occur only in MacOS. If there is anything that can help me, please let me know. Thank you.

x Failed to fetch Apple distribution certificates Failed to set up credentials.     Error: Apple 403 detected - Access forbidden.     This request is forbidden for security reasons - You currently don't have access to this membership resource. Contact your team's Account Holder, Joao Paulo Freitas de Oliveira, or an Admin. =============================================== I had this error when I tried to build IPA with expo, I am already App Manager and I have Access to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles permission. I created the project again with the same code but the error persisted. I don't know what could be causing this error, I need possibilities of what it could be.

Following the process here: https://developer.apple.com/support/unlisted-app-distribution/ We submitted our app for review early Feb via the request form and have had no response. We have emailed asking for status updates and been told they cannot track the progress. We have attempted to get callbacks to resolve this issue and they don't even call us. Is there anyway to get actual support from someone who knows what they are doing? Has anyone actually got an unlisted app onto the store?

I am developing CarPlay addition on our app. Which is distributed with the Enterprise In distribution method, so we do not have a product in the App Store. I am wondering if CarPlay support can be provided in applications distributed with the Enterprise in distribution method? If this is not possible, I will inform management that this is not possible. I am waiting for your answers, thanks.

Hi there We have an enterprise developer account from which we generate an MDM CSR. Unfortunately this enterprise account will expire in a few months and we are not in a position to renew it, therefore I'm wondering is it possible to generate an MDM CSR from a regular developer account? I don't currently see the option but maybe it is something I can request Apple to enable? Thanks Alan

Apple prompted users to explicitly test SCEP workflows after the Ventura upgrade. The Apple MacOS 13 Beta 1 Release Notes should cover the changes, but we didn't find any more details. Did Apple release any more information on what was changed? We are currently unable to complete the SCEP workflow on Ventura 13.0 22A380. Up to macOS Monterey the workflow works without any problems. The workflow fails while parsing the PKCSReq response (Diagram #5) with the following error: CertificateService [502:Cert_PI:SCEP:&lt;0xf94c&gt;] Calling SecSCEPVerifyReply()...
