Using txt files with searching strings for an iOS app
When dealing with SwiftUI and searchable modifier, I know you can use URL or hard code data to search when building projects in Xcode. I am looking to see if you can use a txt file as a way or storing string data of lists to search from when your device is offline when using the search modifier. Then when connected to internet you can update the search with url connection that then updates the txt file so you can do new searches the next time you are offline again. Is this something that is possible?

Subscribed Calendar Issue
I'm running into issues with iOS respecting the HTTP 410 "Gone" response type. Setup: Using the native iOS Calendar app, add a new subscription calendar. "Add Subscription Calendar" Add the URL of a ICS calendar subscription that you control, e.g. https://mywebsite.com/userfeeds/23/cal.ics Make sure to select the "Account" option and choose "On My iPhone/iPad". Set the query amount to 15 mins. Calendar events show as expected, device queries the latest updates from the server every 15 minutes. Server returns HTTP 200 with the .ics contents. Now, assume there is a need for the feed to end - maybe the user unsubscribed to mywebsite.com. There is currently no way for the mywebsite.com server / response to tell the device the feed has ended and it should stop requesting. If the user forgets to go to calendar and manually unsubscribe the device will continually ping the server every 15 minutes indefinitely. It's turning into a virtual DoS for my platform. iOS should respect the HTTP 410 "Gone" header or something similar. If the server returns a HTTP 410 response code for https://mywebsite.com/userfeeds/23/cal.ics X amount of times, the feed should be automatically removed. I've opened several tickets over the last 3 years and have not even had a status change on the tickets. Does anyone know how to resolve this or a work around?

How to Display Multiple Fields in a User Registration Form Using TVML for Apple TV?
Hello, I am currently developing an application for Apple TV using TVML, and I am trying to create a user registration or login form with multiple input fields (e.g., "Username" and "Password"). However, I am facing issues with displaying multiple textField components in the formTemplate. Here are the approaches I have tried: Attempt 1: <document> <formTemplate> <banner> <title>Login</title> </banner> <banner> <textField>UserName</textField> </banner> <banner> <textField>Password</textField> </banner> <footer> <button id="button1"> <text>Button 1</text> </button> </footer> </formTemplate> </document> Attemp 2: <document> <formTemplate> <banner> <title>Login</title> </banner> <textField>UserName</textField> <textField>Password</textField> <footer> <button id="button1"> <text>Button 1</text> </button> </footer> </formTemplate> </document> In both cases, the layout does not render the fields as expected. Either the textField components do not display at all, or the structure seems incorrect. Could someone please guide me on the proper way to display multiple textField components in a formTemplate? Is there a limitation or specific requirement for structuring these elements? Thank you in advance for your assistance!

CoreAudio: Audio Output Device Stopped Error since macOS 15
Hello! I used the Apple CA Playthrough example code that pipes audio between devices. It uses AudioUnit callbacks to pipe the input to an output device, and I created a system equalizer with it - however users reported it stopped working in macOS 15. I am getting the error HALPlugIn.cpp:552 HALPlugIn::DeviceGetCurrentTime: got an error from the plug-in routine, Error: 1937010544 (stop) for the output device and no sound coming out of the speakers. The error only occurs when using a virtual device as an input, not using the microphone. First I thought the problem was in the loopback driver, but it also does not work with other loopback drivers like Blackhole. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Install a virtual device, for example "brew install blackhole-2ch" and run the CAPlayThrough example code (you need to add Mic Permission in the info.plist). Then set your system audio output to the virtual device, select the device as input in CAPlayThrough and hit start. You should see the error in console. My question: What did change in macOS 15 that could cause this? Is it something with the new permission handling maybe?

System update issue
I upgraded my macOS to 13.7.5 and since then I cannot open Adobe InDesing on my iMac. I contacted Adobe Support to assist with the issue and they couldn't find any solution from their side. Probably the update is not compatible? Is there a way I can solve this issue? Or remove the beta version from my system?

CarPlay music sound output from iPhone after enabled Enhanced Siri
With CarPlay communication plugin R18.1, I followed these steps to integrate Enhance siri, the music sound was output from carplay and there is no option for output to Car. ============================================ Enhanced Siri Declare supported audioFormats for the AuxIn and AuxOut streams Since the AuxIn and AuxOut streams for Siri do not have to be both active at the same time, the accessory must claim audio formats support for AuxIn Audio and AuxOut audio independently. The audio formats for each stream can differ from each other (48KHz for AuxOut and 16KHz for AuxIn). The new audio types represent these new streams - AuxIn/speechRecognition & AuxOut/speechRecognition. Check if connected device supports the feature AirPlayReceiverSessionHasFeatureEnhancedSiri() Claim support in the Setup Response message if device supports the feature Add kAirPlayKeyAccessoryEnabledFeature_EnhancedSiri key through the AirPlayReceiverServer delegate AirPlayReceiverServerCopyProperty_f function for the kAirPlayKey_AccessoryEnabledFeatures key. Helper function: CFArrayAppendValue() Add Enhanced Siri parameters dictionary in the INFO message Add dictionary through the AirPlayReceiverServer delegate AirPlayReceiverServerCopyProperty_f function for the kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriInfo key. kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriInfo dictionary parameters: Voice activation of Siri - kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriVoice Current language of voice model - kAirPlayKey_VoiceModelCurrentLanguage Supported languages of voice model - kAirPlayKey_VoiceModelSupportedLanguages Enhanced Button activation of Siri - kAirPlayKey_EnhancedSiriButton Supported zone(s) if any - kAirPlayKey_SupportedSiriTriggerZones Update AudioStream Get state of the AuxIn state by providing an implementation of AudioStreamUpdateState() - Off, local buffering, or streaming to device. Decouple input streams from output streams. AuxIn is an independent input stream only. The property kAudioStreamProperty_Direction will provide the necessary information if the stream is input, output or input & output. Provide a handler for the AirPlayReceiverSessionDelegate setEnhancedSiriParams_f This will provide additional information: Activation type Setting the language of the voice model Invoke the Communication Plugin to start buffering Once the activation type has been specified, the accessory can request the plugin to start buffering using AirPlayReceiverSessionAuxInStart(). Use the new APIs to trigger Siri: AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriActionWithLatency() AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriVoiceActivationWithLatency() AirPlayReceiverSessionRequestSiriVoiceActivationWithSample() Button presses and voice activations should use this new APIs which adds a timestamp of the activation. These APIs allow a choice of a latency or a sample for button and voice activations. If there is a delay between the user pressing the button to notifying the device on the button press, this latency value should represent this time. If the accessory can determine which zone activated, it can provide the zone with the request. Invoke the Communication Plugin to stop buffering You may need to invoke the plugin to stop buffering (AirPlayReceiverSessionAuxInStop()) if exclusive access to the microphone is necessary. Such instances may include but not limited to: Native voice recognition session Telephony Another stream function which uses the microphone starts modesChanged notification can be used to determine if a resource is being used Note, if the session ends, the plugin will automatically stop buffering

Rejected After 40 Days with a US LLC for Publishing App on Google Play: Anyone with Similar Experience?
Hi everyone, I’m a developer from Argentina, and I recently attempted to publish my app on Google Play under a US LLC. I submitted all the required documentation and followed the process step-by-step. After 40 days of back-and-forth communication and providing all the requested information, my application was ultimately rejected without a clear explanation. I understand that having a US company and bank account is a requirement for developers like me to operate internationally, but this rejection has left me quite confused about what went wrong. Has anyone else faced a similar situation? If so, how did you resolve it? Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Not Getting Company Developer Enrollment Email
Apologies if this is the wrong place, I'm trying to enroll as a developer with my company. A long time ago I was invited to join, but had let the invitation expire. I'm working with my manager to try and get another email sent out inviting me into the program, but I'm not receiving anything in my inbox. Is there a known bug here? Is there something else that needs to be done to send out a second invite?

iPad Pro M4. Panic. Freezing and Restarting Daily Without Heavy Usage
I purchased an iPad Pro M4 in early December, and since day one, I’ve been experiencing a recurring issue. Almost every day, at random times, the device freezes for 1–5 minutes and then restarts itself. The tablet is not under heavy load when this happens — I mainly use it for light tasks such as watching videos in a player or Safari browser, web surfing, and reading books. The issue has even occurred while the iPad was idle and locked; it froze, displayed the Apple logo, and rebooted. I brought the device back to the store where I purchased it, and they sent it for a diagnostic check. However, the experts concluded that the device is fully functional, and no defects were found. After one of these crashes, I noticed that my Apple Pencil started lagging (see video file IMG_5688.MOV). However, after another reboot, the issue with the Apple Pencil resolved itself. I’ve documented the issue with several video recordings showing the freezing and rebooting behavior, as well as error logs generated after such incidents. Device Details: Model: iPad Pro M4 Usage: Light tasks only (video streaming, web browsing, reading) Environment: No overheating, no resource-heavy applications running What could be causing this issue, and how can I resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! P.S. I’ve uploaded all the device logs and videos demonstrating the issue to Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_R0i_iazADWo5EgStrPdgmf1XjgPP_RC?usp=sharing

Enrollment Issue
“At this rate, I’m starting to get frustrated. I’ve registered for the developer program twice, but they’re still asking me for the registration fee, and my registration is not being approved. Moreover, I haven’t received any response to my emails, and since the information is limited in English, I can’t search for solutions. Could someone please take care of this issue now?”

WWDC26 beta cellular issues
So recently, last week, ive updated to the Dev Beta of ios 26. This began the very issue of my cellular data. I woke up to a warning symbol where my cellular bars should be, telling me there was something wrong with my antenna or carrier when in reality there was no problem with any of those problems and took up about 53% of my storage. This is absolutely insane and unacceptable.
