Overview

I am exploring on managing state in SwiftUI app with purpose built Views due to the advantages for managing dependency with Environment. This is the minimal example I came up with: @MainActor struct AsyncStateModifier<T: Equatable>: View { let input: T let action: (T) async -> Void @Environment var queue: AsyncActionQueue var body: some View { return EmptyView() .onChange(of: input, initial: true) { old, new in queue.process(action: action, with: input) } } } The drawback of this approach is initial: true allows the onChange callback to fire when view appears and since EmptyView doesn't appear the action is never executed initially. When replacing EmptyView with Rectangle().hidden() this can be achieved, but I wanted to avoid having any impact on view hierarchy and EmptyView is suitable for that. Is there any alternative approach to make something like this possible?

I'm using Network to establish a connection to various SMTP servers. For SMTP servers that use SSL on port 465, using the following code to establish the connection and communicate with the server works fine (read/write code omitted): nw_endpoint_t endpoint = nw_endpoint_create_host("smtp.example.com", "465"); nw_parameters_t parameters = nw_parameters_create_secure_tcp(NW_PARAMETERS_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION, NW_PARAMETERS_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION); nw_connection_t connection = nw_connection_create(endpoint, parameters); nw_connection_set_queue(connection, dispatch_get_main_queue()); nw_connection_set_state_changed_handler(connection, ^(nw_connection_state_t state, nw_error_t error) { //... } nw_connection_start(connection); For servers on port 587 that require an insecure connection at start then renegotiate a TLS handshake with the STARTTLS command, I change the parameters like so: nw_parameters_t parameters = nw_parameters_create_secure_tcp(NW_PARAMETERS_DISABLE_PROTOCOL, NW_PARAMETERS_DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION); This does allow me to establish the connection to the SMTP server but I'm stumped on how to initiate TLS on the established connection after invoking the STARTTLS command and receiving an OK response from the SMTP server. How do I add TLS options to an existing connected nw_connection_t connection?

Hi, I have a problem with adding a bank account to meet the conditions of the Paid Apps Agreement in App Store Connect. I have tried several times, and each time my account status is "verifying" and then changes back to "pending user info." I don't receive any explanation via email as to why this is happening; I only see these yellow messages that are very vague and don't explain much. I don't know exactly what is wrong and why it is not passing the verification. I have tried adding both a scan of my passport and my ID card, but nothing works. Has anyone had a similar situation? (I'm from Poland)

I have added an additional capability called "User Assigned Device Name" into my application(The provisions for Development, Ad hoc & App Store Connect etc already received from Apple). Since then we are facing issues on code signing. We are trying to Sign in Automatically and getting the below error always. /.xcodeproj Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com..*******" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.contacts.notes entitlement. Contact notes entitlements are not a part of our additional capabilities as we requested separately with Apple and received it in the provisioning profile long back. Actually that time the same(contacts notes entitlements) was not a part of the additional capabilities. Please advise if any one has gone through such a conflict and resolved.

Using Xcode to build and deploy the app to my watch, this is what I get: “Waiting to reconnect to Apple Watch. Previous preparation error: Transport error." And then “Connecting to Apple Watch. Xcode will continue when the operation completes.” And these messages continue to switch between each other. Sometimes the watch to connect and the application starts, but more often a scenario occurs with endless reconnection. I'm using: MacOS 14.4.1 (MacBook Pro 2019; 1.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5), Xcode 15.3, Watch OS 10.2 (Apple Watch SE 1), iOS 17.1.1 (iPhone 15 Pro). Methods I tried: Connecting Macbook, iPhone and Watch to the same WIfi network; Disabling Watch (and IPhone) from the "Devices and Simulators" menu and setting up Watch (and IPhone) from the beginning. Any help?

Hi! I am fairly new to Mac/ Python development. I have written a python script that includes the lovely customTkinter Library. the app works, I have checked it extensively, but after creating an executable with both Pyinstaller and Py2app, my app keeps failing notarization. I have the developer account, I have the Developer ID application: Name (xxxxxxxxxx). My last attempt with py2app, I try to codesign the .app bundle with : codesign --deep --force --verbose --options=runtime --timestamp --sign "Developer ID Application: Lennert Esser (5823RMSZ52)" XYZ\ 2\ OSC.app if I do that, I receive a clean message that XYZ 2 OSC.app: signed app bundle with Mach-O universal (x86_64 arm64) [com.myname.appname.app] the verify of the code signature gives nice messages as well: --prepared:/Users/lennert/Documents/SoftwareDevelopment/PythonLocal/Pozyx/dist/XYZ 2 OSC.app/Contents/MacOS/python --validated:/Users/lennert/Documents/SoftwareDevelopment/PythonLocal/Pozyx/dist/XYZ 2 OSC.app/Contents/MacOS/python .... XYZ 2 OSC.app: valid on disk XYZ 2 OSC.app: satisfies its Designated Requirement So I would say, so far so good...? BUT.... if I try to notarize my archived .app bundle. the notarization fails, with looadddssss of errors, with both: "The signature does not include a secure timestamp." and "The binary is not signed with a valid Developer ID certificate." I am completely stuck. Believe me, I have tried everything. Google, ChatGTP, multiple tries to codesign everything separately with: find /path/to/my/app/contents -type f -exec codesign -s "Developer ID application: Name (xxxxxxxxxx)" {} ; please, please someone help me explain what I am doing wrong....

Dear Apple Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request assistance with accepting the updated Apple Developer Program License Agreement. As instructed, I have signed in to my account to review and accept the updated agreement. However, I am unable to locate the Action Button required to accept the terms. This issue is preventing me from updating my existing apps and submitting new ones, which is crucial for my ongoing projects and deadlines. Additionally, I have been in the process of converting my account from a personal account to a developer account, but it still appears to be non-functional, leading to the license agreement issue. Could you please guide me on how to locate the Action Button, or alternatively, provide a direct link or method to accept the agreement? Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your understanding and support. Best regards, Emeka Odidika mekasnoop4u @ gmail.com 08032449947

I was wondering if through the "People Awareness" functionality we can access the approximate position of people when creating our own XR apps. For example, this could be used to adjust the position of virtual objects so they do not occlude or collide with the person.

Dear Team, My Developer account enrollment status is showing Pending. How long I should wait , It has been more than 10 days now. I paid $99 and did not received email as well for further process. Can anybody suggest where should I ask for further process?

We are trying to diagnose an issue with our VPN network extension but have discovered that the VPN logging profile, available on the Apple Developer website is not valid: We have tried installing it on multiple phones, including the latest version of iOS 17 with no success so far. We would appreciate if the profile could be updated as soon as possible.

When I receive the InterruptionBegan notification (the interruption type is AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeBegan) , I pause playing music. When I receive the InterruptionEnded notification (the interruption type is AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeEnded), I resume playing music. however, sometimes i has got the error code: AVAudioSessionErrorCodeCannotInterruptOthers (560557684) If some malicious app to take up the audio, which leads to the third party app music playback recovery fails, an error AVAudioSessionErrorCodeCannotInterruptOthers. In this case, can we know which apps are maliciously hogging the audio?

Hi There is a critical code section between the app and its app extensions that needs to be synchronized and done atomically. What would be a suitable solution to achieve locking and synchronization between app’s processes? Is there a way to share memory or an operation queue between the app and its app extensions? Thank you

I'm wondering if it's possible to implement object tracking on Vision Pro using the Vision framework of Apple? I see that the Vision documentation offers a variety of classes for computer vision which have a tag "visionOS", but all the example codes in the documentation are only for iOS, iPadOS or macOS. So can those classes also be used for developing Vision Pro apps? If so, how do they get data feed from the camera of Vision Pro?

I have my desktop in the iCloud. On a regular basis, my iCloud comes to a point where it wants to upload every single file again, so it sets every existing file on "Waiting for upload", and takes 3 – 5 days to reupload everything. I don’t know what causes this, it comes out of the blue sometimes. During that time, I can’t copy files, and can’t open some programs like Xcode. How can I avoid this?

Im using server V5.8 in Mojave that has worked so well until last week that I cannot entoll new devices or push apps to pupils iPads. I have tried everything even reenrolling devices but still no communication from the mobile device management server to the iPads. Please help as I have 50 new iPads for a new class that I need to enrol.

Hello, I've test Apple spacial computing since few weeks now. I've hope working on spacial computer will give me more productive. At this time, safari extensions I use (bitwarden) was not available. There is no other web browser available. I've not find how to use xcode in my spacial computer. I've not find any native (not iPad) terminal tool. Mac screen sharing only give me one screen (and I've got 4 in my desk). This screen can be very big but I prefer having 4 little screen better a big one. And screen sharing is not usable using mouse at all. my mouse always disapear from my screen when sharing with my spacial computer. For all theses case, using spacial computing for working is not realist at this time in my specific case. I lost to many time using it instead of using a "real" computer. Hope this message can help you to upgrade software and give me all tools needed to use it to work. Best regards, Julien Boquet

In our Mac Catalyst app running on macOS, the Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Check Spelling While Typing, Check Grammar With Spelling, and Correct Spelling Automatically preferences are reset with each opening of a new text view. How can we make those preferences persistent? Ie, when someone changes those settings for our app's text view, other incarnations of our app's text views should respect the latest preferences. We looked at swizzling NSTextView's toggleAutomaticSpellingCorrection:, saving those to NSUserDefaults, and then reading those preferences when we set up our UITextView subclass, and then setting the UITextInputTraits properties accordingly. However, our approach felt heavy handed, and I'm wondering if we are missing some out-of-the-box functionality that will make those preferences intuitively persistent. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you.

In older versions of macOS, such as those predating Mac OS Sonoma, users had the ability to set the Lock Screen independently from their desktop wallpaper. However, with the introduction of Mac OS Sonoma, this feature seems to have been altered or removed altogether. Currently, there appears to be no option to set the Lock Screen image separately; instead, only changing the desktop wallpaper, changes the Lock Screen image. This change raises questions about whether it is a deliberate alteration in the setting flow or if it could potentially be a bug in the system. Users may wonder if this adjustment is intended to streamline the interface or if there are plans to reintroduce the ability to customize the Lock Screen image independently of the wallpaper in future updates.

Hello, I'm having this issue that Xcode tells me it cannot find the Swift Packages I'm using within my App. When I first open Xcode, all the Package Dependencies are listed correctly in my project navigator. Also, building the app for the first time runs without any issues. But right after the first build is finished, the Package Dependencies are not listed any more and the build fails, telling me that all the packages are missing. I have to manually click on File -> Packages -> Reset Package Caches, after that it works again. But only for exactly one build. I basically have to do this step for every single build. I found out that there is this Package.resolved file which lists all the used packages with their respective version and some kind of hash. This file is located inside the .xcodeproj file, in my case it's this location: MyApp.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcshareddata/swiftpm/Package.resolved This file is deleted after the successful build. And I think that's the reason why all of a sudden Xcode screams that the packages are missing. After resetting the package caches this file re-appears. But it seems it has to be regenerated every single time. This bug is VERY annoying and exists already since the last view versions of Xcode, not just the latest one. I was hoping this bug is fixed at some point. Current Xcode version: 15.4 (15F31d) MacBook Air 13", M3, 2024 running macOS Sonoma 14.5 Just in case, my Package.resolved file is attached below.

When transferring files from iPhone to Watch, if you run the app and try to transfer after updating the OS, the transfer may not be possible. (or transmission seems to be too slow) Just completely close the app, restart it, and try again. Does anyone know the cause or solution to this problem? It happened after the last 17.5 update and today after the 17.5.1 update. The app doesn't crash or anything, and it doesn't happen often, so I didn't send any feedback or anything, but it's strange.
