Membership
Hello, I am a developer from Russia, I recently paid for a subscription to apple developer. 8,990.00 Russian rubles were debited from me. The subscription is displayed in my active subscriptions from my apple account. It shows in the application that the enrollment through the application is not working. The payment receipt was sent to the post office when, how much, and for how long everything about the subscription is. Tell me what are my next steps, how much should I reap?

Enrollment charged 4 times
I am frustrated with the slow response from the support. I kept paying 4 times for my developer account from 31/12 (3 days ago) and my bank card actually got charged €396. It was because when I logged in, I kept seeing the button Purchase now, although I paid previously. I thought the payment did not come through. Does anyone face the same issue before? What is the best way to reach the support people? Thanks.

How to replace the functionality of deprecated CKContainer.requestApplicationPermission(.userDiscoverability) ?
I am developing a Cloud Sharing app, but I have been unable to find a solution to this problem. CKContainer.requestApplicationPermission(.userDiscoverability) was deprecated in iOS17. However, without it I find that none of the following APIs return a user's RecordID: CKContainer.default().shareParticipants(forEmailAddresses: [emailAddress]) CKContainer.default().userIdentity(forEmailAddress: emailAddress) (deprecated) CKContainer.default().discoverUserIdentity(withEmailAddress: emailAddress) (deprecated) CKFetchShareParticipantsOperation(userIdentityLookupInfos: lookupInfo ) For users who have given permission in response to CKContainer.requestApplicationPermission(.userDiscoverability), these APIs return the user's RecordID in the response's CKUserIdentity. But for user's who have not been asked for permission, their CKUserIdentity does not contain their user RecordID. After iOS17, how can we ensure that the response's CKUserUserIdentity contains the user's RecordID ? I use the user's RecordID as part of my lookup (by email address) for other users, to confirm if they have already registered with the App. If not, I need to send them an invitation using the UICloudSharingController. If they have already registered, I can set up a share with them without the 'UICloudSharingController'. Thanks for any suggestions.

My app crashes on startup in iOS 26
I have an app with a small but devoted following. It has not been upgraded since 2022 and has been working very well. On iOS 26 it crashes almost at startup. After hooking up to Xcode and running I get this message in the console: objc[64686]: Class PSSegment is implemented in both /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/PolarisGraph.framework/PolarisGraph (0x291ed9f78) and /private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/08486FCF-548A-467C-8BA3-D722734463FC/HikeTracker.app/HikeTracker.debug.dylib (0x101d309e8). This may cause spurious casting failures and mysterious crashes. One of the duplicates must be removed or renamed. PSSegment is the name of an entity in my Core Data managed object model. If I refactor it to P_Segment the app starts. PolarisGraph means nothing to me. The "PS" stands for Persistent Store, but in this case it seems that PolarisGraph is PSing in my sandbox. How can this happen? I'll attach the longer message that comes with the crash. error messages.txt

My iCloud was migrated to AWS against my wishes and now people are rifling through my cloud, can someone stop this??
I’m concerned because my iCloud account was recently migrated to AWS (Amazon Web Service) against my will, and now it seems.like people are rummaging through my files, photos, and mail, When I try to contact Apple Support, I get bumped to a spoofed site. Calling the hotline is the same, I get a Siri operator with platitudes and gaslighting but no action. I have run sysdiagnose and it looks really sketchy. Can anyone help?

Quantumsort, next level of Radix Sort implementations
Hello All, I've been finally able to finish my so called Quantumsort implementation, which is basically only slightly modified Radix Sort at the basis, but utilizes the somewhat newish Apple Metal SIMD commands heavily. Or rather rather renders the threadgroup shared memory void altogether with those SIMD sharing options available. The sorting itself works "well enough" for my needs here on these Github shared main.swift and sort.metal files already, and the question relates more on it that - can someone spot would it be possible to get rid of the "sorted_temp" array memory too and use one "sorted" list only at all times..? Here's the related repository and copilots I prefer you and you and you more for haha tho : https://guthib.com/roger-more-fi/quantumsort Cheers, make it to the perfection those good last ones of '25 'aights Apple soldiers!

Finding out what code is creating some hidden files
I'm getting reports that my application is creating hidden files with names starting with .f and having 9 or 10 numbers after that. For example: .f678501541 .f1858565508 AFAIK I don't create any files with names like that! So how to determine a) if I am creating those files and b) exactly where in my code this is happening? Unless of course someone knows what creates files like this... Thanks, David

Account pending
Hi everyone, I purchased an Apple Developer Program membership about three days ago. The payment has already been successfully charged to my bank account, but my account is still showing the status “Pending” with the message “Subscribe your membership.” I haven’t received any confirmation email or any request for additional information since completing the purchase. I’m curious if others have experienced a similar delay recently, and how long it took before your developer account was fully activated. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Git and iCloud
Hi guys, also those at Apple, I love what you all do and make, long time Linux user switched since silicon. But is there perhaps any timeline on improving the interaction between iCloud and git? Perhaps it is on me to check beforehand, but I enabled Desktop & Doc sync on iCloud (which included some git repos) and these now malfunction completely. Bad object errors, lost wheels, insanely long syncing, and worst of all - randomly removed environment variables! I only noticed when random stuff stopped working out of the blue; only after re-configuring zsh and doing scorched earth on brew did it click. I mean, there is a '.nosync' flaggy thing to add to dirs, but it isn't even officially supported. Moreover, when trying to disable sync for docs, it will delete local repos! So either it's disabling and starting all over again, or waiting for the sync to finish (which breaks things) and going through a long restoration process. I don't expect iCloud for the average Joe to be super specced for developers, but perhaps there could be room for some minor improvements that would at least prevent git repositories from completely breaking, e.g. just ignoring them or not syncing certain folder/file types. Restoring the whole thing (if even possible) is an extremely long and tedious process. Sorry for the rant, but I feel this might be appreciated. One of the things I like about this ecosystem, proprietary it is, is the seemliness and easy of use. If iCloud Drive is advertised as 'it will work', it's only fair that this would apply to developers too (and that they are not required to check beforehand whether it will break all of their git repositories). Or it is just me getting old. :) Cheers, Frans

Problem installing a third-party app
I have a third-party app installed on my iPhone 16 Pro Max, and since yesterday I've been getting the following error: "An internet connection is required to verify developer trust. Apple Development: Created via API (3GJ3LH6NRW). This app will not be available until it has been verified." Can you help me fix this? I've been told it should work again on its own in 2 to 4 days. I have a Developer account to sign apps and avoid problems; it's never given me any trouble until now.

Safari/WebKit Crashes on Johnson Controls Website Across Multiple iOS Versions (Actual devices only)
Here we are facing issue, which is mentioned in detail below: Safari on iOS consistently crashes when loading https://johnsoncontrols.com/. The error shown is: “A Problem repeatedly occurred on https://johnsoncontrols.com/” This happens with multiple iPhone models and iOS versions, suggesting a WebKit rendering or JavaScript execution issue. This occurs occasionally similar behavior on Android, iPhone (Chrome) Environment • Devices: Any iPhone model, we are tested on available models like iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 14, iPhone 15 • iOS Versions: Latest stable releases, occasional occurrence on iOS 13 • Browser: Safari (WebKit) • Network: Both Wi-Fi and cellular tested • Additional Occurrences: Rarely reproduced on Chrome (iPhone, Narzo Android) • Occurs only on physical devices (not observed in Simulator) Steps to Reproduce Open Safari on any affected iOS device. Navigate to https://johnsoncontrols.com/. Sroll page up and down for some time Observe page automatically get reloads, crashed and show error message (A problem repeatedly occurred on “https://johnsoncontrols.com/"). Expected Result Page should be rendered normally without crashing. Actual Result Safari reloads page / blank / crashed and displays errors. Troubleshooting Done • Cleared cache and cookies • Disabled content blockers • Tested in Private mode • Reset Experimental Features • Issue persists across different networks Technical Notes • Suspect JavaScript memory leak or DOM manipulation causing WebKit crash. • Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP) or site scripts may conflict. Questions for Community • Can Apple confirm whether this aligns with any known WebKit bugs? • Are there recommended diagnostic steps (e.g., Web Inspector, crash logs, sysdiagnose specifics) for reproducing Safari scroll-related site crashes? • Should the site’s development team adjust JavaScript, rendering approach, or resource handling to improve stability on WebKit?
