Regarding renewal of annual app registration fees
I've requested app development and am currently publishing it, but I can't contact the app development company and am unable to pay the annual fee to Apple. I don't know my registered account, so what should I do? I contacted Apple Japan, but they only handle personal inquiries and cannot handle business app development requests, so they suggested I post a question on this website. Thank you in advance.

Enrollment Pending Past Deadline – Case ID: 102818925571 – Blocking Distribution
I’m seeking guidance on how to move an enrollment forward that has stalled. I submitted my application for the Apple Developer Program on Feb-2, and the 48-hour processing window has now passed. have already reached out via the formal support channel but have not received a response beyond the automated acknowledgment. This delay is currently blocking the scheduled distribution of a macOS application and impacting our development timeline.

Apple Developer Enrollment Pending Since Jan 31 – No Response from Support
I applied for the Apple Developer Program on January 31, 2026, and as of today (February 5, 2026), my enrollment is still showing as Pending. The payment was completed successfully at the time of application. Since then: I have not received any requests for additional documents or verification. I have contacted Apple Developer Support twice, but have not received any response so far. I understand processing times can vary, but the lack of response from support is concerning. Has anyone else experienced similar delays recently? Is there any recommended escalation path or alternative way to reach the Developer Support team? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as this delay is impacting my app release timeline. Thank you.

Enrollment pending since Jan 17 even after submitting additional documents
I applied to the Apple Developer Program on Jan 17 and my enrollment showed pending for several days. I eventually contacted support on the 27th and they told me they needed additional documentation and sent me a link to upload and asked me to email them once I've done so, so that they can get it reviewed quickly. On Jan 27, I uploaded the documents they requested and sent the email confirming they've been uploaded as was requested. After several days, it still says "pending". I spoke with support today and they said they have the documents and there's nothing for me to do other than wait for them to be reviewed and this "could take months". I'm in the process of purchasing a business and need this account so that they can transfer me the mobile app. My due diligence period is ending within a few days and need clarity on this approval asap. Has anyone else experienced these types of delays or know how to get the review completed? Enrollment ID: 7P992248Q5 Case ID: 102811401305

iPhones/iPads unable to connect to ClearPass Captive portals - Issue affecting only Meraki APs with FortiGates
Hi Team, Looking for an answer, if it's just us or a widespread issue. Since Sept, our clients Apple devices can't load a Captive Portal on Apple devices. Client wants the CNA to pop up and I can't get it to happen! Android and Windows devices all work correctly with their respective popups, but CNA will not work. No changes done on our side and after multiple tshoots and getting vendors to take multiple PCAPs found, Apple devices are not initiating a HTTP GET request as per Meraki >> https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/MR_Splash_Page/Splash_Page_Traffic_Flow_and_Troubleshooting The work around is to force a HTTP GET request by manually going into the browser and initiate a http site (we tried 1.1.1.1, also tried other public HTTP sites and it works) and that redirects to our Captive Portal page.

My iPhone will not charge from my Mac Mini
I recently replaced my older Macbook with a Mac Mini. My iphone charges fine from a powered USB hub, but when I connect the hub to my new Mac Mini, my phone stops charging. This is the same phone, hub, and cables that worked just fine with my Macbook. I M running Beta 26.3, but the MacBook was also on Beta 26. Anyone have any ideas?

Box around cursor finger icon
Recently I've noticed that certain cursor actions cause the finger icon to appear with a gray box around it. It appears when I hover over other icons (for example, the menu items at the top of this website; Microsoft Teams options but not MS Word, etc.). Is this new? Is there a way to get rid of the box?

Is iPhone Mirroring really doing Mirroring?
Understand other technologies or app doing mirroring will have 2 screens active at the same time. But for Apple iPhone Mirroring is showing only 1 screen at a time and with other protection of same Apple ID, Bluetooth and Wifi for proximity checks. Hence, it is really considered a iPhone Mirroring? https://support.apple.com/en-sg/120421

Unable to use Live Wallpapers iPhone 16 Pro Max
Using iPhone 16 Pro Max. iOS 26.3-Public Beta. App using: MyScreen26 I have only been able to use 1 live wallpaper (black and white tyrannosaurus rex) about 2 weeks ago. I wanted to change it today, and have been unable to get any of the live wallpapers to work, even the same one I used the last couple of weeks. I find the live wallpaper I want, download it. I click on the upper left hand corner to put into 'Loop' mode. I have 'Low Power Mode' and 'Reduce Motion' turned off. I then click on the arrow on the lower left to open the menu to use the image as a locked screen wallpaper. The screen then shows 'add to album', 'airplay', 'export unmodified original' and 'add to new quick note'. There is no selection for add to wallpaper. Not sure what I'm doing wrong....any suggestions? Thanks!

iOS Screen Mirror device caching and discovery
iPhone 13 mini running iOS 26.2 I went to mirror a stream to a previously used Roku device. The Roku popped right up on the Screen Mirror list, but would not respond. Investigation showed it had lost its network connection - so what showed on the Screen Mirror list was still in cache, not from a current request - and sure enough, after repairing the Roku's LAN connection, it worked fine. That raised these questions: Does the iOS device (iPhone) cache a Screen Mirror list for each network? How does the iOS device build its list of Screen Mirror servers on a local network? I presume it broadcasts a request to the LAN, the first time it is invoked on a new LAN, asking "Does anyone provide this service?" - Is that correct? [Is that broadcast a Bonjour function?] If not, how does it acquire its list of Screen Mirror servers? To avoid the problem of false positives in the Screen Mirror list, how can I clear that cache (#1) and issue a new request (#2) for current Screen Mirror servers? How can iOS avoid showing servers that no longer exist on the network? Is there any limit to the number of networks cached by iOS, or the number of servers cached per network? More generally, is there a good resource to read how iOS manages this issue?

Merging Apple IDs... everyone but us??
So I've been bugging Apple (and anyone who will listen) for years, about the hassles that come with having one ID for iCloud+ (primary) and one ID for purchases (secondary). I forget why the split, but there was a reason, that's long since gone. Since discovering last year that finally, Apple have provided a way to transfer purchases from secondary to primary, I have lost so... much... time... trying to make this work. Following checklists many times... upgrading, downgrading, removing profiles... deregistering from TestFlight etc etc. After escalating within Apple support, the "solution" came back as "It's because you're a developer - you can't." Now, I've been around the block in 'puters enough times to know that, that "solution" is - even if correct, the "cause". A solution, it ain't. But in any case, surely Apple wouldn't do that to "us", right? Everyone else affected by the two-account hassles is now cured... but for those of us who live on our Macs and iPhones making software for Apple and its communities, it's "screw you guys". I'll try and climb off my high horse now... but man, frustrated is not even close, not helped by another 3 hours on the phone today, getting cut off twice and having to repeat myself again and again. I've even suggested de-registering as a dev, transferring assets etc... but one person even told me (albeit as if he was clutching at straws) that once a dev, that's it - no way back, and some options like transfer are gone forever! Has anyone here - as a developer - managed to transfer their purchases from one ID to another? Does anyone know any more about this? Can anyone put me out of my misery - or offer some calming advice before I totally lose my sh...share of sanity.

Developer Account Confusion
Hi all, I just submitted my application to join the Developer Program. I went through the form, and got to the payment screen and filled out. I submitted and have received an "order acknowledgement" email, but I note that payment hasn't been taken, nor do I have any other emails regarding it. I understand my application can take a while to progress and it's still early days, but I'm concerned that it's stuck in limbo as payment hasn't been taken. With that and the notice on my account page that still reads: "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process." When I navigate to the payment screen again, I can see that there is no CVV field which my bank requires to accept payments. I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar issue and how they resolved or, even, if I have done something wrong during the application phase. Thanks!
