In the "Mac app data protection" section of the "What's new in privacy?" talk, they show a "X would like to access data from other apps" dialog, with an explanation string shown below it. Is there an Info.plist key that we can use to provide our own explanation string in that dialog? I've been digging around in the documentation but haven't been able to find anything.

I have a helper app that controls a menu status item which the user can choose to enable and have launch at login. I've been using the SMLoginItemSetEnabled() API for this for a while, with my helper app located in Library/LoginItems within my main app bundle, and it's been working just fine. On macOS Ventura (I'm running 22A379, the RC build) I can't get the login item system to launch my helper app. Looking through the console when I try enabling the login item, the most interesting message I see is from the "smd" process, which prints out the following (com.fatcatsoftware.PowerPhotosMenu is the bundle identifier of my helper app): copyJobWithLabel for label com.fatcatsoftware.PowerPhotosMenu failed with error 113: Could not find specified service I even tried switching over to the new SMAppService() API, but with the same results. Neither API returns an error when called, and my main app shows up in the new login items list in System Settings, so it seems like it's registered fine, there's just something failing trying to actually launch the app. I had not gotten around to testing this on previous Ventura betas, so I don't know if it's new with the latest build or if it's been this way for a while. Everything works as expected when running on Monterey. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be here?

I just downloaded Xcode 12 beta 4 and it crashes every time on launch for me on my Intel iMac. I tried deleting my prefs, derived data, and ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData, as well as running from a separate user account, and it crashes every time with the below stack trace. The same version of Xcode launches fine on my DTK. Anyone else seeing this? Xcode crash log - https://developer.apple.com/forums/content/attachment/1142dbbc-736e-44c5-947f-1b566f9e5b3c
