Hello, Although the Swift Student Challenge for 2025 has not yet been announced and is not officially taking place, I have a question regarding last year’s rules in the Swift Student Challenge. This is, of course, assuming the rules will be similar if the challenge runs again next year. I am interested in utilizing CreateML to design a text classifier model. Given the substantial amount of data required for machine learning, am I allowed to outsource data from open-source libraries and/or social media platforms, provided that these resources abide by their terms of service? My primary concern is if I must create my own data as that will be time-consuming and more biased. Thank you, Jesse

Hi, I run a midsize business. Apple recommends for company owned devices and for other reasons to use Apple Business managed Apple IDs for the employees. After that, you have to use a MDM System for e.g. deploying apps and licenses. Testflight is an app that can be deployed too. But....Testflight can not more than to say "Hello" on a managed device. The use of Testflight and to test our developed apps is not possible with a managed ID. Can anyone explain to me this thinking or what is recommended than. Setting up a private Apple ID for that purpose...which on the other hand, Apple do not want or does not recommend.

Hi everyone, I maintain an app that is developed and distributed with an Apple Developer Enterprise subscription and delivered via my institution’s private site, where users download the .ipa file after logging in. From what I see, we use automatic signing in Xcode where possible. On the 1st of January 2024, the provisioning profile expired, and the developer before me had to rush to renew it because the app stopped working. Now, I have some questions about how to prevent this from happening again: When should I renew the provisioning profile? Can I renew it before the expiration without blocking the current app version that users have already downloaded? How do I renew it? If I need to download a certificate, does it need to be converted into a different format? Do we need to build a new .ipa file that users will have to download before the expiration date? here a screenshot clearance and guide:

Hi, I am using the Create Report functions under Payments and Financial Reports. Does anyone know what is the time zone that Apple use for that report?

Hello, I have received Enterprise.license from Apple and I am trying to implement main Camera access for Vision Pro by following https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2024/10139/. Here is my camera function. func takePicture() async { let formats = CameraVideoFormat.supportedVideoFormats(for: .main, cameraPositions:[.left]) let cameraFrameProvider = CameraFrameProvider() var arKitSession = ARKitSession() var pixelBuffer: CVPixelBuffer? await arKitSession.queryAuthorization(for: [.cameraAccess]) do { try await arKitSession.run([cameraFrameProvider]) } catch { return } guard let cameraFrameUpdates = cameraFrameProvider.cameraFrameUpdates(for: formats[0]) else { return } for await cameraFrame in cameraFrameUpdates { guard let mainCameraSample = cameraFrame.sample(for: .left) else { continue } pixelBuffer = mainCameraSample.pixelBuffer let image = UIImage(ciImage: CIImage(cvPixelBuffer: pixelBuffer!)) print(image) UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(image, nil, nil, nil) } } } My problem is debug stops at this line. guard let cameraFrameUpdates = cameraFrameProvider.cameraFrameUpdates(for: formats[0]) else { return } Why does it happen so and what else do I need to do?

Is there any good framework that can be used in educational app as Learning Management System (LMS). Should be full fledge for creating courseware for E Learning App. Should be compatible with all Apple Platforms. Any help or link will be greatly appreciated. As I didn't found anything that mentions designed for Xcode. All LMS belong to Web based apps.

Hi all, We've been given the opportunity to beta test an app at my school and we have been asked to download the Test Flight app to enable it to run. Unfortunately it's not possible to use Test Flight with a managed Apple ID. All our staff and pupils' iPads are signed in with a managed Apple ID. It's a shame to pass up this opportunity, but I can't see any way around it... does anyone have any alternatives (apart from creating and using a non-managed Apple ID, which isn't feasible). Thanks in advance, Jacob

I would like to inquire if I can use screenshots from maps for specific areas in my application. I plan to add various markers to the screenshots, which can be clicked to identify different types of areas, such as restaurants and bars. Do I need a separate permission for this, and if so, where can I obtain it? Is it possible to implement this, and what copyright considerations do I need to take into account for my business idea?

Hello Everyone, I want to get into the Apple Intelligence space where I work on LLM and other AI models that can run on the edge. I am en route to get a MAC for this work. but till then can do any development with another non-apple laptop. I want to contribute to the work and is there any way that I can do it till then? I have a NVIDIA compatible laptop for other dev purposes with Windows.

Is there any good LMS framework that can be easily integrated to develop educational apps. It should have scoring, questionnaire, gamification , certificate generation etc. Any framework as easy as few lines of code and good payment structure would be good idea.

I received an email today stating that my payment is on hold due to irregular activity. I haven't violated any rules, and I've noticed others have received similar messages. I immediately contacted support by phone, and the representative confirmed my account is in good standing. She asked me to forward the email for further investigation. Email received: "We noticed some irregular activity associated with your vendor number XXXXXXXX and have paused your earnings payments while we investigate. Once our review is complete, we'll determine if we can resume your payments." Questions: Has anyone else encountered this issue? If so, what steps did you take to resolve it, and how long did it take for payments to resume? Wishing everyone a great day, and thanks in advance!

Hi Team, We are planning to automate ABM export. We dont want to download export which contains device inventory for example, S/N, IMEI, Reseller ID, etc. Is there any way to automate it or has Apple made their APIs available? Any help would be appreciated. Regards!

Dear Mr. Cook, I am writing to you today to urge you to take action to save the Apple Vision PRO and turn it into a revolutionary flight simulator. I believe that the Vision PRO has the potential to completely transform the world of flight simulation, but it needs your support to reach its full potential. Unleashing the Vision PRO's Potential: A Game-Changer in Flight Simulation The Vision PRO is a unique and powerful device that holds immense promise for delivering an unparalleled level of immersion and realism in flight simulation. However, current sales figures indicate that it is not yet reaching its full potential. I believe this can be attributed to several factors, including: Limited Marketing and Promotion: The Vision PRO has not been effectively marketed to its target audience, comprising pilots, flight schools, aviation enthusiasts, and gamers. Lack of Dedicated Flight Simulation Software: Currently, there is a scarcity of high-quality flight simulation software specifically designed for the Vision PRO. Absence of Strategic Partnerships: Apple has not formed partnerships with major aviation or flight simulation companies to promote and develop the Vision PRO. Transforming the Vision PRO into a Flight Simulation Powerhouse I am confident that by addressing these issues, Apple can transform the Vision PRO into a resounding success. Here are some specific recommendations: Invest in a Comprehensive Marketing Campaign: Apple should target its marketing efforts towards pilots, flight schools, aviation enthusiasts, highlighting the Vision PRO's unique capabilities. Partner with Leading Flight Simulation Software Developers: Apple should collaborate with developers to create top-notch flight simulation software tailored specifically for the Vision PRO, maximizing its potential. Forge Strategic Partnerships with Industry Leaders: Apple should partner with major aviation and flight simulation companies to promote and develop the Vision PRO, leveraging their expertise and reach. A Call to Action: Unleashing the Vision PRO's Revolutionary Potential I am convinced that by implementing these steps, the Vision PRO can become the premier flight simulator on the market, revolutionizing the way people train to become pilots, hone their skills, and simply enjoy the thrill of flight. I urge you to give this matter your serious consideration. The Vision PRO is a truly exceptional product that has the potential to make a real difference in the world. With your support, it can reach its full potential and become a groundbreaking product. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Pascal

We need to do some operations in a login screen, but when the user uses a WPA2-Enterprise network, the authentication to this network is only possible after the login process has already been completed. Is there a way to change the network on login screen or a way to authenticate on the WPA2-Enterprise network before a completed login? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1 - Use a WPA2-Enterprise 2 - Set WPA2-Enterprise as Auto-Join/Principal 3 - Reboot the Machine 4 - On the logon screen it's impossible to authenticate on the enterprise network even then type the username and password.

I entered the address but it cannot be verified. I tried Confirm many times but it still doesn't work. Is there anyone in this situation who can help me? Thank you !

I know Apple Engineers are busy and it’s just been WWDC, but things seem very quiet here. There have been 17 posts in the past 10 days and only 6 of them have any replies. It’s great that non-Apple Engineers offer advice and assistance, but I kind of thought there’d be at least a reply from an Apple Engineer to each post?

Hello folks, I stumbled upon a weird CNContact serialization problem. I use the Contacts framework to update the AIM field, which is one of the instantMessageAddresses within a single Contact. Here is the simplified code I used: func updateAIMFieldOn(contact: CNContact, aimValue: String) { do { guard let mutableContact = contact.mutableCopy() as? CNMutableContact else { logger.error("[CM] Couldn't update contact with aim \(aimValue)") return } var updatedAddresses = mutableContact.instantMessageAddresses updatedAddresses.append(CNLabeledValue(label: "", value: CNInstantMessageAddress(username: aimValue, service: CNInstantMessageServiceAIM))) mutableContact.instantMessageAddresses = updatedAddresses let saveRequest = CNSaveRequest() saveRequest.update(mutableContact) try CNContactStore().execute(saveRequest) logger.verbose("Contact's AIM updated successfully!") } catch { logger.error("Couldn't update contact") } } And after serializing the contact to data, and then deserializing, the contact got two AIM fields with the same value: X-AIM;type=pref:some:part:of_my_aim_value IMPP;X-SERVICE-TYPE=AIM;type=pref:some:part:of_my_aim_value Why does it work in this manner? Is it possible that ":" char causes that? Format of my aim username is {some:part:of_my_aim_value}. I didn't find any information in the docs. Thanks!
