I’m currently trying to localize one of my Mac apps for Right-to-Left languages. In Xcode, to test this, I set the language to ‘Arabic’ in the scheme, which then displays the language and mirrors the layout accordingly. I have two questions about this: macOS titlebar buttons: In the title bar at the top, shouldn’t the Close and Minimize buttons also be on the right side (mirrored)? How can I test this? Numerals: My UI still displays Latin numerals (123). I know this is correct in some Arabic-speaking regions, but I’d also like to test cases where Arabic-Indic numerals (١٢٣) are used. Is there a way to configure the scheme to test this?

I tried to apply for the developer account from September to November. But the status is always "Pending". I reached out to Apple support and they said they cannot receive my payment from bank. The bank transaction is "Pending" as well. I asked the bank support and they said they have allowed Apple to collect the $99 USD money. And Apple support said it's the responsibility of the bank to give Apple the money. And the Apple support recommended me to use the Developer app to apply for the Developer Program. But the app requires US driver’s license or state identification card to verify. I'm not a US citizen so I cannot use the Developer app. I'm forced to use the website. I'm so confused and want to know: Isn't it the responsibility of Apple to collect the money authorized by the bank? The status of my last three bank transactions are still "Pending" and the bank said it's the responsibility of Apple to collect the money. They cannot cancel the pending transaction. I feel like a piece of shit being thrown around by terrible customer services. I really want to cry.

I am not able to load my Apple Developer account details in Xcode in my new MacBook. After going to preferences in Xcode and signing in with Apple ID, after few seconds, it prompts the following error “Unexpected nil property at path: 'Actor/relationships/providerid’”. How can I fix this.

Since about two weeks Xcode has been unable to download other app versions than the pre-selected set of versions shown in Organizer for any of the sub selections like Crashes or Feedback. I can see some crashes and feedback for the versions that were already there but when i choose "More versions..." in the version selector the popup shows but after about a minute i get a message that the versions failed to load due to a network error. I've tried every few days, on multiple networks (all with good fiber connections), for two different team accounts and for multiple apps, but in none of these scenario's Xcode is able to download new versions so i'm pretty sure there is something broken on Apple's side but i don't see many reports online about this nor anything here on the forum. Is anybody else experiencing these issues?

Our use case is that we need to run a CLI script (on Mac) to set up backend configuration before each test case (UI test on real iOS device). The setup logic is test specific, so using pre-build scripts is not an option. Is this support in any way or what are best practices around such a setup? Ideally, we would still be able to execute the tests from within Xcode.

I am working on implementing App Clip functionality in my iOS application. While I can successfully launch the App Clip using a QR code, I am unable to launch it through other means such as the Messages app or deep links shared through other applications.

I'm not able to see my account information on the Mac Mini machine with M2 CPU. I log in to my account in Settings, but in Xcode 16.1 it fails with the Decoding Error There was a failure decoding response I think this is the same as here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/767673 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/769069 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/759877

Hello, I am using Xcode 16.1 (16B40) on MacOS Sequoia 15.1.0 using a Macbook pro M1 Max I am developing an app for iOS 17 and 18 using SwiftUI I created UITests to take the screenshots for the appStore on the simulator The tests run well and all of them are succeded The problem appears when I try to get the screenshot files from the xcresult files after the test. There is not any screenshot inside it. I found a data folder and a Info.plist file. In the data folder there are a lot of files with this pattern data.03zD4C6IGFFthK14NwA8mNvcwFHT16g6Tl40Tl1YmBC1bNh6d0YIcnWKyUaQPDXoa8fYo6C3Xcv8xvMtE3_NEXA== and other files with this pattern refs.03zD4C6IGFFthK14NwA8mNvcwFHT16g6Tl40Tl1YmBC1bNh6d0YIcnWKyUaQPDXoa8fYo6C3Xcv8xvMtE3_NEXA== Ok, I tryed to use fastlane to automatize the screenshots but the problem is still present. The xcresult files have not any png file. I had no problems doing this action (getting screenshots from a xcresult file) in previous versions of MacOS and Xcode in my current machine. I just updated my machine to MacOS Sequoia 15.1.1 and the problem is still present Honestly I don't know how to fix this situation. With Xcode 15 I had not any problem with that but I am not sure if Xcode 16.0 was runing without problems because I didn't need to use this functionality in those months Here is my code for a UITest: import XCTest final class ScreenshotsUITests: XCTestCase { let app = XCUIApplication() let device = "iPhone16" override func setUpWithError() throws { continueAfterFailure = true } override func tearDownWithError() throws {} @MainActor func testEnglishScreens() throws { let lang = "en" app.launchArguments.append("UITestMode") app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLanguages", "(en)"] app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLocale", "en_US"] app.launch() executeTestsForMenus(lang: lang, backLabel: "Back") executeTestForMatch(lang: lang) } @MainActor func testSpanishScreens() throws { let lang = "es" app.launchArguments.append("UITestMode") app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLanguages", "(es)"] app.launchArguments += ["-AppleLocale", "es_ES"] app.launch() executeTestsForMenus(lang: lang, backLabel: "Atrás") executeTestForMatch(lang: lang) } private func executeTestForMatch(lang: String) { let startButton = app.buttons["start-button"] startButton.tap() let key4 = app.buttons["key-4"] XCTAssertTrue(key4.waitForExistence(timeout: 30), "Key 4 in match screen is not found") key4.tap() let key2 = app.buttons["key-2"] XCTAssertTrue(key2.exists, "Key 2 in match screen is not found") key2.tap() makeScreenShot("playing", lang: lang) let closeButton = app.buttons["close-button"] XCTAssertTrue(closeButton.exists, "Close button in match screen is not found") closeButton.tap() } private func executeTestsForMenus(lang: String, backLabel: String) { let mainHeader = app.staticTexts["Math match"] XCTAssertTrue(mainHeader.exists, "Header in main screen is not found") makeScreenShot("mainMenu", lang: lang) let settingsButton = app.buttons["settings-button"] XCTAssertTrue(settingsButton.exists, "Settings button in main screen is not found") settingsButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Settings", lang: lang) let backButton = app.buttons[backLabel] XCTAssertTrue(backButton.exists, "Back button in match screen is not found") backButton.tap() let helpButton = app.buttons["help-button"] XCTAssertTrue(helpButton.exists, "Help button in main screen is not found") helpButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Help", lang: lang) backButton.tap() let scoreButton = app.buttons["score-button"] XCTAssertTrue(scoreButton.exists, "Scores button in main screen is not found") scoreButton.tap() makeScreenShot("Scores", lang: lang) backButton.tap() let playButton = app.buttons["play-button"] XCTAssertTrue(playButton.exists, "Play button in main screen is not found") playButton.tap() makeScreenShot("matchBuilder", lang: lang) let startButton = app.buttons["start-button"] XCTAssertTrue(startButton.exists, "Start button in match builder screen is not found") } private func makeScreenShot(_ name: String, lang: String) { takeScreenshot(app, named: "\(lang)-\(name)-\(device)") } } import XCTest extension XCTestCase { func takeScreenshot(_ app: XCUIApplication, named name: String, fullScreen: Bool = false) { let screenshot: XCUIScreenshot if fullScreen { screenshot = app.windows.firstMatch.screenshot() } else { screenshot = XCUIScreen.main.screenshot() } let screenshotAttachment = XCTAttachment( uniformTypeIdentifier: "public.png", name: "screenshot-\(name).png", payload: screenshot.pngRepresentation, userInfo: nil) screenshotAttachment.lifetime = .keepAlways add(screenshotAttachment) } } and here is the content of my testplan file: { "configurations" : [ { "id" : "35BC7C0B-9A5A-4027-9F30-36958C4C1AAF", "name" : "Test Scheme Action", "options" : { "preferredScreenCaptureFormat" : "screenshot", "testExecutionOrdering" : "random", "uiTestingScreenshotsLifetime" : "keepAlways", "userAttachmentLifetime" : "keepAlways" } } ], "defaultOptions" : { "targetForVariableExpansion" : { "containerPath" : "container:myAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B022CA00314001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProject" } }, "testTargets" : [ { "parallelizable" : true, "target" : { "containerPath" : "container:MyAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B122CA00315001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProjectTests" } }, { "parallelizable" : true, "target" : { "containerPath" : "container:MyAppProject.xcodeproj", "identifier" : "B27D1B1C2CA00315001A259B", "name" : "MyAppProjectUITests" } } ], "version" : 1 } I made tests with old projects in my machine and those projects have the same problem with screenshot files in the xcresult bundles I don't know if the problem is in my machine, my Xcode, MacOS or other ting. I don't know how to fix this problem Please, can anyone help me? Thanks in advance

We had Xcode Cloud working with our project. We needed to re-auth the repo which failed and ended up needing to remove the config to reset it up as new. When on AppStoreConenct it shows its now not configured and to setup, which is good but when launch Xcode, press setup Xcode cloud it just gets stuck on loading source code repositories.

Hi, My Apple account still has a pending status after payment, What can I do to resolve this problem or do I have to wait for Apple to process it?

I am working on adding Objective-C ABI support to DLang and currently I'm getting the following error when linking with ld. Assertion failed: (fixups().size() == 1), function classTarget I'm curious as to why I am getting this error, looking at the objective-c runtime source, i have not applied any of the fixup flags to any protocol definitions. From my understanding, the source of the linker is not available so it's a bit on the difficult side to determine which part is wrong. The source of my pull-request is available here: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/pull/4777

We have been trying to migrate screens that were developed using UITool Kit to SwiftUI. In the process we have some screens that have SwiftUI embedded inside the UITool kit view. Our developers have defined accessibility ids for all elements in these views and these are inspectable using the native iOS xcode inspector. However when i try inspecting it with the appium inspector i get an empty list with no elements in the hierarchy tree. Attaching a screenshot of the element when inspecting through the native xcode accessibility inspector, Attaching a screenshot of the same screen when inspected through the appium inspector, Also tried printing the XCTest UI dump using appium method, `driver().executeScript("mobile:source", Map.ofEntries(Map.entry("format","description"))) The UI tree i get is the same that i get when inspecting through the appium inspector. Requesting support from the Apple team based on this ticket, [https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/20759)

Hello We've tried to "purchase" our membership on the 6th of November, entered valid billing information, but still didn't receive back any feedback from apple. Previously with other accounts we didn't encounter any issue, but now for some reason apple support is not answering us back (left 3 tickets, they are all open, where the oldest is open for over a week without a reply back from apple) Did anybody encounter this before? is there another way to contact apple to get their help? Thanks in advance

Hi! We use to have several workspaces for our SDKs, one of them containing a test application. Everything worked fine. We decided to "merge" all SDKs in one workspace. I create a new workspace, added all SDKs and application inside and made all the required changes. Everything's good, we can generate our XCFramework and run the test application on the simulator. But when I archive the application, it is now exported in an "Other" section of the organizer instead of the original app (bundles identifiers are the same, already checked). I compared with FileMerge the xcproject files from before and after the merge, there is no significant difference between the 2. I compared also the xcarchive folders, and it seems that the archive is now missing the ApplicationProperties key inside. If I add it manually, I can now generate an ipa or send it to testflight. I checked with ChatGPT (just in case), but everything it asked me to check was fine (bundle ids, bundle versions and build number, Bundle os type in info.plist, custom xcconfig (same issue without them)). I'm pretty stuck here :-/ Thanks for your help

I have two macOS applications: Application A, named My App.app with the bundle ID com.comp.myapp, and Application B, named My App.app with the bundle ID com.comp.myapp2. Both applications have the same name. Application A is installed at /Applications/My App.app. When I run the installer for Application B, it gets installed in a folder at /Applications/My App.localized/My App.app. Even if I remove Application A using the preinstall script of Application B's installer, the result remains the same. Does the installer determine the installation path with the new folder before the preinstall script executes? How can it be addressed so the new folder will not be created? Notes: We have a composite package that contains multiple components. Instead of just running pkgbuild, we use our own components.plist rather than a synthesized one. The components.plist is attached. The PackageInfo for Application B is also attached. components.plist PackageInfo packageInfo.xml components.plist

I'm trying to run the Instrument "Animation Hitches", but it fails immediately after starting on the iPhone. This happens on multiple projects, including a brand new project. I get the following errors: Timestamp | Message (Before Run Started) | Unexpected failure: Couriers have returned unexpectedly. (Before Run Started) | Failed to start the recording: Failed starting ktrace session. The issue also happens with the instruments App Launch, but not with any other that I tested. Is this a bug? Using Xcode Version 16.1, Mac Mini M1 Sequoia 15.1. Running project on iPhone 14 Pro iOS 18.1.

What's the problem? My app requests location access and for that I need to provide a description for the user to read so that it is clear why we need this permission. I'm using the latest solution suggested by XCode for my app localization which is using Localizable.xcstrings file. But for the permission description, I'm adding the text to Targets -> Info -> Custom iOS Target Properties -> "Privacy - Location Always and When In Use Usage Description". I understand that the default language is English in this list so I provided it, but now I want this description to be translated to other languages so that my users can read it in their preferred language. What I have tried so far? I tried adding translation to the keys "INFOPLIST_KEY_NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription" and "NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription" in my "Localizable.xcstrings" but it is always showing the description in English

Dear Apple Community, I am facing quite a hard issue in my React Native app that I do not know how to overcome. I have an app, that connects to "ANY" Mautic.org instance - You can think of it as Wordpress for marketing automation. And as each WordPress instance has it's own URL, the same goes for the Mautic. So at the beginning I am asking user for a URL that my app si supposed to be connected: //previous code <TextInput value={instanceLink} onChangeText={(text) => setInstanceLink(text.trim().toLowerCase())} placeholder="Please insert instance link" style={styles.input} /> //Code continues The instance link value is stored in Expo Secure Store and used through the whole app. This works perfectly fine during development. The app saves this instance link and calls API without any issues: //previous code export const testConnection = async ( url: string ): Promise<{ status: boolean; message: string; fullResponseLog: Response | undefined; }> => { try { const response: Response = await fetch(url); // Code Continues However, when build for production and used in TestFlight or Google Play - I am getting "network request failed" (for Fetch) or "Network Error" (for Axios). It seems this "dynamic url" is blocked somehow by App Stores policy and I could not find a solution for this problem. Any ideas? Are such dynamic links actually blocked by some policy?

We've encountered a critical issue with the new linker of CLT16 (version 16.1.0.0.1.1729049160) that prevents proper initialization of BLOCK DATA. BLOCK DATA are used to initialize global variables in our Fortran code, and its failure to initialize those variables leads to a program crash. This affects our community of more that thousand scientists worldwide. The current workaround is using the -ld_classic linker option. However, this option is deprecated and will be removed in a future release, as described in the Xcode release note. I've attached a minimal example that reproduces the problem using GNU gfortran with the following instructions (the attached main.f.txt and bd.f.txt need to be rename to main.f and bd.f, respectively): gfortran -c bd.f gfortran -c main.f ar rv libtest.a bd.o main.o gfortran -ld_classic -o good.x -L. libtest.a gfortran -o bad.x -L. libtest.a Running the two programs, one can see that the BLOCK DATA are not initialised without the option ld_classic, $ > ./good.x 3.7273802569289098 2.8083922366048202 $ > ./bad.x 0.0000000000000000 0.0000000000000000 We kindly request your attention to this matter and a prompt solution or alternative workaround. Best regards main.f.txt bd.f.txt part.txt
