Transfer Account Holder role- Individual
Query: My ex colleague opened a individual apple developer account and we mutually published app there, but later on, he get separated, and move to an other town. I keep on using same account but he stopped. I don't have his contact detail as he have changed is contact and all details. Now I want to transfer account holder role to my name, where as apple says one can only do it in below scenario. ""Account Holder transfers for individual members are granted when a minor reaches the age of majority and can receive the Account Holder role from their guardian, or when the Account Holder is deceased. Assistance is required from Apple Developer Support."" Any Solution to my Problem?

Developer name
Good morning, community. I have an organization account. When creating the first application, it asked for the name of the organization again, in which I accidentally filled with the name of the application. Now, when trying to submit my app, I am told that I need to provide files showing that I'm the owner of that company, etc. But in reality, there's no company with that name, as it's only the name of the application. Is there a way to change this developer name back to my organization's name? I've seen this link, and they say there's no way to change it. What could I do in this scenario? I just enrolled; should I remove the account and enroll as an organization again? I need support, please. Thank you guys in advance.

How to configurable endpoint security message deadline value by which app should respond?
As enterprise endpoint security/data loss prevention application, we need to detect data which is being transferred out of the enterprise context from their MacOS filesystem through applications like Cloud Sync or Email. Depending on the file content, type and size, we require some time for scanning the content being sent. This can range from milli seconds to few minutes for very large contents. But the Endpoint Security message has to be responded within the provided message deadline else application will be killed. This deadline is reducing with every macos release and its now only 15 seconds on macos sonoma which is blocking our use case of completing the scan before responding. We may scan it before but it imposes challenges of the data being modified before actual sent. So, we have to scan it on the fly and cant rely solely on the previous scans. Is there any way an Enterprise can customize this deadline value depending on the ES message and scanning application may be through MDM setting?

Does everyone wait for weeks for their Apple Developer Support?
Hello everyone! The first time I needed Apple Support I had to wait 2 weeks. I wrote now 5 days ago to change my entity type from Individual to Company and I am afraid I am going to wait weeks or months for such a thing to happen. I wrote countless support emails asking for an update on my case number 102275785042, but I am receiving only the confirmation email that is lying that it takes 48 to respond. I have wrote my first app but I am stuck on this and everything is going to be for nothing because my client is leaving me. Taking in account that I don’t have an option to call, what can I do to get an answer from Apple? I am in Romania. If I get a phone number of a country that they really do offer support, will I be able to call, or have the issue addressed? I am getting desperate

macOS 11 Issues With Automatic Assessment Configuration
Hi, We have a secure browser app using AAC for e-assessments and have observed issues when candidates use it on macs running macOS 11. If disconnected, users cannot reconnect when AAC is on and sometimes have to do a hard reboot. Others say they cannot even install the app or the app won't run. These issues seem to be only happening specifically with macOS 11, no problems observed so far with other macOS versions. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Researcher in Spatial Computing / HCI Looking to Use Enterprise APIs on Vision Pro for HCI Research-Only.
I am a spatial computing / XR and Human-Computer Interaction researcher from a private university. I am interested in using the vision pro's newly-exposed camera access to develop and evaluate new algorithms for computational perception. ( WWDC session here: https://developer.apple.com/wwdc24/10139 ) I understand this is targeted at large enterprises, but I would like to know if by some means as a researcher affiliated with an educational institution I could develop private for-development-only applications for the vision pro with the enterprise APIs enabled. The intent is not to publish apps, but rather to contribute to the research community through R&D. However, to my knowledge, I would be ineligible as a normal "business" as I do not employee 100+ employees. I am an independent researcher, and on occasion, I collaborate within small research groups within my university that focus on this kind of camera-based perception algorithm development. Could someone from Apple comment? Thank you.

in app purchases
I have a service that can be accessed via browser extensions on Chrome and Firefox. I've had a request for Safari. Setting up an account is done via a regular browser app, the browser extensions are free but an account with API keys to use it are by subscription. My question is I assume Apple wants it share, is this correct? The Safari browser extension requires and API key that is managed via our site. There is a subscription to use the service across different browsers and this is handled by our site NOT the extension. There would be a link to the admin site in the extension

iOS18 beta enterprise certificate trust issue
When I trusted my certificate in 'Setting'->'VPN & Device Management', my device reboot automatically. After reboot, it showed that "developer of My Team is not trusted in this iPhone", but the app is "verified" in the second column. The UI looks like: iOS18 beta: First Col: Trust "My Team" Second Col: MyApp Verified Other versions: First Col: Delete App Second Col: MyApp Verified What's more, my app has plugins(extensions), my app can run normally while the extension is not able to be pulled up on iOS18 beta.

Best way to handle sales tax with purchases
**Sales Tax ** I would love to understand this and find a process I can follow to be successful. I'm pretty new to sales tax world. Has there been a successful process that anybody else follows and can share? To calculate sales tax and do this on a yearly basis? If you're collecting any sales tax through your app with Apple or stripe etc. For not only the US, but if your product is also in different countries. Again I don't really know this sales tax stuff and I'm trying to learn it as I go.

CNContact instantMessage field duplicates after serializaiton/deserialization
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!

Bit quiet here?
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?

WPA2-Enterprise Wi-Fi on Login Page
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.
