I have an XCode Cloud CI/CD process that's been in place for over a year now, hooked up to the project's GitLab repository. Yesterday it lost connection to the repo, and I can't get it to reconnect. Here's the error I see when I click on the "reconnect" button: The repo still exists, obviously, and I still have maintainer access. I did notice that my private key that I use to connect XCode to GitLab had expired, so I created a new one, but that didn't resolve the issue. Another thing I noticed is that when I try to look at my builds in the console, it tells me to link my gitlab account with my Apple account: But when I click the Link Accounts button, nothing happens. Is there a different way to link the accounts? Is it possible that's what the issue is?

I had several library projects that were working in Swift Playgrounds < 4.6 but I get several duplicate compilation errors and previews will not build in Swift Playgrounds > 4.6. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Example project: This project builds and runs fine under Swift Playgrounds 4.5.1 however it will not run complaining multiple commands produce generated output files under Swift Playgrounds 4.6.1, 4.6.2, and 4.6.3. https://github.com/kudit/Compatibility Download this repository and add the extension ".swiftpm" to the folder and double click to open in Swift Playgrounds. If running on earlier Swift Playgrounds you can see there are no errors and previews work great (on both macOS and iPadOS versions of Swift Playgrounds 4.5.x). However, on Swift Playgrounds 4.6.x, previews will not display. Are embedded libraries not support anymore? This would be very disappointing. I posted this as a Feedback weeks ago with no response: FB16509699

When a new application runs on iOS 18.4 simulator and tries to access the Speech Framework, prompting a request for authorisation to use Speech Recognition, the application will crash if the user clicks allow. Same issue in the visionOS 2.4 simulator. Using Swift 6.

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying since yesterday to set up an Apple Watch app alongside my iOS app, but it’s not working at all. I created the app by adding a new target, selected watchOS > App, and linked it to my iOS project. When I run the Apple Watch scheme directly, the app works, but if I try to install it on my Apple Watch via the iOS app, it doesn’t work. Every time I tap install, I get a message saying that the installation failed. While reading the documentation, they mention an Info.plist file that is supposed to be generated with the watchOS app, but when I check, I don’t see any .plist file. Is that normal? Thanks for your help.

So i have an LLC for my developer account and want my developer yearly cost to go the company credit card. Though when i attempt to setup auto-renew, it take me to personal apple account in forms me that these changes will affect my personal iCloud account. How can i make these seperate.

Hi everyone, I'm an indie developer and I'm currently dealing with a confusing and concerning issue with Apple. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced something similar. 🔻 What happened: I’m based in Poland and recently opened a sole proprietorship. A few days before the issue, I updated my W-8BEN tax form (correcting my personal ID to my business tax ID – NIP). Then, one day before my scheduled monthly payout, I received an email from Apple saying: "Your payments are on hold – we’ve noticed irregular activity on your account." All payments were suddenly put on hold with no specific reason given. My app remains live and available on the App Store. I wasn’t warned ahead of time, and there’s no detailed explanation from Apple so far. 🔸 My questions: Has anyone else had all their payments withheld right before payout like this? What were the reasons in your case (tax issues, account verification, “irregular activity”, etc.)? How long did it take to resolve, and did Apple eventually release the funds? I’ve contacted Apple Finance, but responses so far have been generic and slow. Any advice, experience, or clarification would be extremely appreciated — this payout is essential for covering my operating costs, and being left without funds so suddenly is pretty rough.

I am on MacOs 15.4.1 which is being deployed with an old version of Ruby ruby 2.6.10 and bundler version 1.17.2. I ran pod install after generating the pods with these versions and during the application compilation there have been several issues reported against pods code.

I am a solo developer building a cross-platform voice assistant app using Capacitor (with HTML, JS) and Xcode for the iOS version. The app is called "Echo Eyes," and it already functions well as a Progressive Web App (PWA). However, the iOS build has been completely blocked due to persistent sandbox permission errors from macOS during the CocoaPods framework embedding phase. This issue has caused severe disruption to my project and personal well-being, and I am writing to formally request assistance in identifying a clear solution. I am not a beginner and have followed all known best practices, forums, and Apple guidance without success. What I’ve Built So Far: Fully working PWA version of the app (voice input, HTML/JS interface) Capacitor initialized with ID: com.echo.eyes.voice Capacitor iOS platform added with CocoaPods App runs fine until Xcode reaches: [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks The Exact Problem: Sandbox: bash(12319) deny(1) file-read-data /Users/Shared/projects/Echo_Mobile/ios/App/Pods/Target Support Files/Pods-App/Pods-App-frameworks.sh Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code Clarification: This is not an HTML/JS issue. The failure occurs in Xcode long before web assets are embedded into the bundle. The shell script /Pods-App-frameworks.sh cannot be read due to macOS sandbox restrictions. Everything I’ve Tried: Gave Xcode and Terminal Full Disk Access Ran: sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine on the entire Pods directory Added /bin/bash and /bin/sh to Full Disk Access (after confirming the exact shell via $SHELL) Attempted to disable Gatekeeper via Terminal: sudo spctl --master-disable (confirmed not effective without GUI toggle) Tried relocating project to /Users/Shared/projects/ Cleaned build folder, removed derived data, reinstalled pods Debugged shell usage with: echo "▶️ Embedding under shell: $SHELL" in the [CP] Embed Pods Frameworks script Attempted to grant shell access to Documents Folder, Desktop, and more via Files &amp; Folders Current State: Despite following all known and recommended steps, Xcode continues to return the same sandbox error. The shell script that embeds the CocoaPod frameworks is denied permission to read its own contents by macOS. What I Am Asking For: Is this a known issue in current versions of macOS or Xcode regarding sandbox denial for shell execution inside Pods? Is there a recommended method to grant /bin/bash or /bin/sh permission to read and run these scripts under Xcode without compromising system security? Is moving the project outside /Users (e.g. to /Projects) the only real workaround? Are there official Apple workarounds or entitlements available for developers encountering this? Personal Note: This issue has caused significant emotional and physical distress. I’m building this app as a personal healing tool and companion. I’ve poured months of work into this and done everything I can to follow Apple’s development guidelines. I’m not asking for hand-holding — only a clear, respectful response confirming whether this is expected behavior and what can be done to resolve it. Thank you for your time and understanding.

On my M4 Mac running macOS 15.5 using Xcode 16.4 & Xcode CLT 16.4, Swift code in my Swift Package Manager 5.9 project (https://github.com/mas-cli/mas) builds fine against some included Objective-C headers via the following command line: swift build -c release But cannot find modules for the included Objective-C headers when building inside Xcode 16.4 or with the following command line on the same Mac: xcodebuild -scheme mas -configuration Release -destination platform=macOS,arch=arm64,variant=macos The error is: Sources/mas/AppStore/AppleAccount.swift:9:16: error: no such module 'StoreFoundation' How can I get Xcode / xcodebuild to work? Note that the project is normally built by running: Scripts/build which runs: swift build -c release after running the following script, which must be run before any build (swift, Xcode, or xcodebuild) because it generates a necessary file (Sources/mas/Package.swift): Scripts/generate_package_swift I've tried moving the Objective-C headers into include subfolders of their existing module folders, using double quotes instead of angle brackets for the #import statements, having module.modulemap files in the include subfolders or their parent module folder, and moving the module folders one level up the file hierarchy, to no avail. I've also tried various changes to the root-level Package.swift (not the generated one deeper in the hierarchy, which isn't inclined in the build configuration), like making separate library targets for each of the Objective-C modules, various swiftSettings & linkerSettings, etc. Maybe some of those changes would have helped, but maybe they were in incorrect combinations. Thanks for any help.

I am using a Mac computer running macOS 15.5 with Xcode version 16.3 (16E140) and an iPhone XS Max on iOS 18.5. When debugging my app on the real device using Xcode, the app gets stuck on the launch screen and fails to proceed to the main interface. There is no output in the Xcode console, and the top of the window continuously shows "attaching to [app name] on [iPhone name]". Here are the details: The same issue occurred when the phone was running iOS 18.4.1. When I tested on another real device running iOS 17, the app launched and ran normally. I’ve tried clearing the cache, but it didn’t help. I deleted the ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport folder, let it re-download the necessary files, and ran the app again, but the issue persists. I’m currently out of ideas and would appreciate any assistance.

I'm building out a number of XCUITests. At one stage in my app, we present an SKStoreReviewController to ask the user if they'd like to review the app now. All I'd like to do is dismiss the view, by hitting the "Not Now" button. Normally, for other "system" views, I'd something like this: let springboard = XCUIApplication(bundleIdentifier: "com.apple.springboard") let notNowButton = springboard.buttons["Not Now"] And then I'd do an appropriate 'wait' and tap action. But for some reason, this isn't working. Looking for advice on how to properly handle this screen.

Xcode 16.4, MacOS Sequoia 15.5 If I try to use a logger in an Xcode Playground e.g. import os import UIKit var logger = Logger(subsystem: "Loggertest", category: "") logger.info("Hello, world!") I get the following error error: Couldn't look up symbols: ___dso_handle ___dso_handle Hint: The expression tried to call a function that is not present in the target, perhaps because it was optimized out by the compiler. Its the logger.info ... that is causing the error. I have raised FB18214090 but there are no other reports. I would be grateful if some of you could verify if the Playground runs or errors on your system. A workaround, still using Logger, would be a great help. Thanks, Chris

For Xcode 15 and Xcode 16, whenever I try to use the Refactor->Rename command I get a spinning busy cursor for a short while then I get an alert that says: Rename Failed Refactoring engine failure. This happens on several projects and I've tried removing the derived data folder, but am at a loss to find additional troubleshooting steps. Are there other files I might remove or reset to get my "Refactoring Engine" back into shape?

I am a bit confused. My understanding previously was that a modulemap was required in order to have a bridging header be generated. Now it has come to my attention that a modulemap is both a build input and something you can put in the Modules folder of the built product if you so choose. I have tried reading the clang modulemap documentation, but am really struggling to connect most of what it says to the problem at hand. In a project I am working on, the generation of the modulemap file is quite problematic. The framework imports C++ libraries and itself writes Objective-C++ wrappers for them. Currently, the modulemap file is both set as the Module Map File in "Build Settings" and presumably used when the Swift project later imports it. In this project the modulemap is a list of the objective-c++ header files then export * I am trying to understand what I would lose if I do one or both of two things: What happens if I dont set this module map file in the build settings for the objective-c++ framework? What happens if I dont have a modulemap involved whatsoever in this objective-c++ framework and then it is imported into Swift? And does any of this change if its compiled as a static vs dynamic library? What if I embed it vs not embed it? Because the build in the real project is so complicated its hard to isolate what is going on. So I built a smaller sample app. There is CFramework which has an objective-c++ class. There is SwiftProject which imports that framework and is purely Swift. It imports the module and uses it. I did not write a modulemap file, and the Swift project builds just fine. In the timeline it: Prepares packages Computes target dependency graph Builds static cache for iPhoneSimulator18.2sdk As near as I can tell even though the objective-c++ framework is not built with a modulemap in its build settings and there is not a modulemap included in the framework everything works. So then the modulemap file is useless? Perhaps it speeds things up but what step would theoretically be skippable?

My Apple account has been locked and Apple says that it can't be used.I tried to reset but it didn't work for me.Please suggest if someone has any resolution for it.

I kept CoreLocation’s startUpdatingLocation running for a full day and used Performance trace - PowerProfiler to track the power usage during that time. The trace file was successfully generated on the iOS device, and I later transferred it to my MacBook. However, when I tried to open the .atrc file, I received the following warning: The document cannot be imported because of an error: File ‘/Users/jun/Downloads/PowerProfiler_25-06-16_181049_to_25-06-17_091037_001.atrc’ doesn’t contain any events. Why is this happening? Is there a known issue with PowerProfiler in iOS 26, or am I missing something in the tracing setup? Note: The .aar file and the extracted .atrc file are not attached here, as forum uploads do not support these formats.

I recently started building an iMessage game, and whenever I try to send the game through the first contact on the simulator to loop back into the second one, I get an alert saying "Unable to send. The recipient can not receive this item via satellite". Has anyone experienced this? If so, do you have a solution? It is making it a bit difficult to test the flow of my app.
