Xcode 27 How do we declare the accent color?
Hi guys In Xcode 27, we have to create the Assets Catalog file ourselves. This file is empty. The icon now is generated by Icon Composer, but how do you specify the accent color? I tried creating a Color set with the name AccentColor but didn't work. And look for options in the project settings but couldn't find any.

Enrollment blocked: identity verification linked to an Apple Account I cannot identify
I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual and I'm stuck at a point I can't get past on my own. What happens The ID scan step in the Apple Developer App completes successfully. After that, when I sign in with my account, I get "We could not complete your enrollment." Developer Support told me the reason: my identity has already been verified under a different Apple Account, and per Apple's policy the same identity cannot be verified again on a second account. The problem is that I cannot identify that other account. I have used the same Apple Account since 2018 and have no recollection of ever creating a second one. What I have already checked Every device I own (iPhone, iPad, Mac). All are signed in to the same Apple Account. No other account appears anywhere. My entire email history, including archived, spam and deleted mail. Every message from Apple since 2018 was sent to the same address. There is no trace of any other Apple Account. iCloud Keychain and saved credentials in all browsers I use. No other Apple Account is stored. Family Sharing members. Nothing relevant. I submitted over twenty candidate email addresses to Developer Support. All came back as no match. Support responses so far Both email and phone support gave me the same answer: nothing can be done unless I provide the email address of the other account. I offered to provide my device serial number and other identifying information, but no alternative lookup method was offered. A possible explanation I found a thread here describing a case where someone had enrolled years earlier under an account they later deleted via privacy.apple.com, and the identity verification remained linked to that deleted account rather than being released with it. If something similar applies to me, the account I am being asked to identify no longer exists, which would explain why no trace of it can be found anywhere. What I'm asking Has anyone had the identity verification association reset by Apple? If so, what did it take? Is there a way to have Apple look up the associated account from a device serial number or other identifying information, rather than requiring the email address up front? Has anyone resolved a case involving a deleted Apple Account retaining the verification link?

iOS 27 Simulator: “Describe a Shortcut” stuck on “Preparing support”
I'm trying to test the new “Describe a Shortcut” feature in iOS 27 using an iPhone 17 Simulator. When I open Shortcuts and tap “Describe a Shortcut”, it stays on: “Preparing support for describe a shortcut” and the text field remains disabled. I cannot enter anything or create the shortcut. My setup: Mac: MacBook Pro macOS: 27 Xcode: 26.5 (17F42) Simulator: iPhone 17 iOS: 27 I also have a physical iPhone 14 Pro, but I understand that it doesn't support Apple Intelligence, so I'm trying to test this using the iPhone 17 Simulator. Do I need to enable/download anything for Apple Intelligence on the Mac or Simulator? Or is “Describe a Shortcut” currently unsupported/not working in the iOS 27 Simulator? Any guidance on the correct setup would be appreciated.

Enrollment disappeared from account with no notification — WCV6L5LH9F
Title: Enrollment disappeared from account with no notification — WCV6L5LH9F Hello, My Apple Developer Program enrollment has vanished from my account with no explanation or notification, and I am hoping someone from Apple can tell me what happened. Details: Enrollment ID: WCV6L5LH9F Support Case ID: 102965409792 Enrollment type: Organization Enrollment submitted: 9/3/26, payment completed at that time Timeline: Enrollment submitted and paid. Account showed "Your enrollment is being processed. Your enrollment ID is WCV6L5LH9F." Status remained unchanged for over two weeks. No request for documentation, no verification call, no email beyond the original purchase confirmation. September 16: opened support case 102965409792. Received only the automated acknowledgment from Apple developer support. No substantive reply since. Phone support has been showing as unavailable on the Contact Us page, so the callback path has not been available to me. Today: the enrollment banner is gone entirely. My account page now shows "Join the Apple Developer Program" with an "Enroll today" button, as though no enrollment was ever submitted. The support case is no longer listed under open cases. At no point did I receive a withdrawal or rejection notice. I have checked the inbox and spam folder of the email address associated with my Apple ID. The membership fee has not been refunded to the card used. Additional context, in case it is relevant: I have not submitted a duplicate enrollment at any point 2FA is enabled on the Apple ID [For organizations: the D-U-N-S number on file is active and the legal entity name matches the D&B record exactly] My questions: Was this enrollment withdrawn or rejected, and if so, for what reason? Is there anything required from me — identity documents, entity verification, corrected information — to complete it? Should I submit a new enrollment, or would doing so create a conflict with the existing record? I would rather fix whatever the underlying issue is than re-submit blindly and end up in the same state. Any guidance from Apple staff or from developers who have seen an enrollment disappear this way would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Identity verification blocked — says "already verified on a different Apple Account" but I've only ever had ONE Apple ID (Case 20000143970410)
Hello, I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program (Individual) for the first time, but I'm completely stuck at the identity verification step. The Apple Developer app / Developer Support tells me my identity was "already verified using a different Apple Account." However, I have only ever had ONE Apple ID (used continuously since my iPhone 5s, through my iPhone 7, and now my iPhone 13 and Mac — same email the entire time). I have never created, accessed, or verified identity on any other Apple Account. I contacted Developer Support (case 20000143970410). Two advisors, including a Senior Advisor, confirmed the block but said there is no manual override available, no team that can view or share info about the other account, and no way to resolve this on their end. They have since closed my case. Given that I've never had another Apple ID, this seems to be either: A system error incorrectly matching my identity to someone else's account, or Someone else using my personal identity documents to verify a different Apple Account without my knowledge. Has anyone experienced this exact situation and found a resolution? Could a moderator please take a look at case 20000143970410? Thank you in advance for any help.

SwiftUI NavigationStack warning messages
After installing Xcode 27.0 SwiftUI NavigationStack is generating unwanted warnings that have not been seen with older releases. Examples of the warnings are "cannot add handler to 0 from 0 - dropping". A minimal view using VStack does not generate these messages but adding NavigationStack seems to generate pairs of messages. Over the lifetime of an application hundreds of messages are generated. Is this a known issue?

Unable to install iOS 18 simulator using xcodebuild 27
We are planning to upgrade our CI setup to run on Xcode 27, but we want to run tests on several older iOS simulator runtimes: 26, 18, 17… With Xcode 26.6, we had no trouble installing the needed runtimes by running: $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 18.6 $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 17.5 $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 16.4 When using Xcode 27.0 (27A266a), however, the command fails to work for any runtime older than iOS 26.0: $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -buildVersion 18.6 Finding content... iOS 18.6 is not available for download. At the same time, the runtimes can be installed just fine by using the "Add Platforms…" dialog from the Components pane in Xcode settings. Unfortunately, that's not an option in a headless CI machine. The same issue also reproduces in the beta versions 27.1 (27A9269) and 27.2 (27B5019j), and regardless of macOS version (26.7 or 27.0). Any idea how to work around the issue? I wonder if's a broken backend configuration or a regression in Xcode 27? Posted as FB24836279.

Cannot enroll - stuck in "in review" loop Case ID 102964219702
My individual enrollment is completely gridlocked (see case ID Case ID 102964219702). The iOS Developer App is experiencing a terminal redirect loop forcing me to the web, and the web portal is locked 'In Review'. Frontline staff state there is a duplicate Apple ID flag. I have verified via appleid.apple.com that I only have one active account. I require an escalation to Tier 2 Senior Operations to perform a manual identity override. I have government-issued ID ready to upload immediately to clear this flag. 2 phone calls, 6 emails, only one totally unhelpful response. Cannot move forward on a project until I enroll and I've been stuck in this holding pattern for days. Never had this treatment from Apple before: very disappointing.

Individual Developer Program enrollment not possible
Hi, I am German and living in Thailand. My current Apple account is set to Germany, that's why I made another account with location Thailand. But I cannot enroll in the program because my German drivers license or german passport is not accepted. Of course I don't have any Thai documents because I'm German with a German passport, but living in Thailand. How can I register for the Individual Developer Program? Thank you Christian

Apple Developer Program enrollment stuck on Pending after successful payment — Case 102964975487
Hello, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual and completed the USD 99 membership purchase on September 15, 2026. The payment was successfully processed, and I received both the Apple order confirmation and invoice. However, more than 48 hours later: my Apple Developer account still shows the enrollment as Pending; the portal still displays “Purchase your membership” and asks me to complete the purchase again; I do not have access to an active Developer Program team; Xcode only shows my Personal Team, so it cannot create the required provisioning profile for the app because Sign in with Apple is enabled. I already contacted Apple Developer Support about 24 hours ago: Case ID: 102964975487 Enrollment ID: S4GNUQR7J6 Order Number: D005232549 Invoice Number: MD06813808 I have not submitted another payment because the existing USD 99 purchase has already been completed. Has anyone experienced the same situation recently, or could Apple Developer Support please confirm whether my case is already under review or requires any additional verification? Thank you.
