I wasn't sure where to put this as it is mostly a curiousity but I was working with a new Series 12 Apple Watch Hermès and was noticing that most of the Hemès watch faces have not been updated to the 1Hz display feature that allowed for running seconds that debuted with Series 10. Has anyone else come across this? I know it took Apple a while to update all of the faces but I would have expected the exclusive (and expensive!) faces would be updated. Am I correct that these are not updated? Anyone else that can confirm or tell me if I am missing something?

When trying to access new Siri in macOS 27 beta 7 it always showing 'I’m having trouble with the connection. Please try again later.'. Tried changing the language multiple times and restarted the mac as well. But nothing resolved the issue. Has anybody faced this issue. is this related to network settings ?.

Every macOS update fails during preflight personalization on my MacBook Pro (Mac15,6, Apple Silicon), currently on 27.0 build 26A5378j. It's failed on every build from beta 5 (26A5406e) through beta 7. Identical failure via Software Update and via startosinstall. It fails LOCALLY, before contacting Apple (gs.apple.com and gdmf.apple.com are both reachable with valid certs). Error (install.log + unified log): reaches PREFLIGHT_PERSONALIZE (~0.15), then aborts MobileSoftwareUpdateErrorDomain Code=1259 "failed to copy firmware identity" "could not obtain device identity information through SFR installer" SUMacControllerErrorPreflightPersonalizeFailed=7723 Root cause I've traced: an orphaned volume-group boot-policy directory in /System/Volumes/iSCPreboot/. ls shows two volume-group UUID dirs — the live one (matches diskutil info /) and an orphan (3D3287DE-...) with no corresponding APFS volume group (diskutil apfs list shows only one live group). Both date to Feb 2024. The preflight can't reconcile the System Recovery boot policy in the orphaned dir. Note: NOT caused by Erase All Content and Settings (unlike the commonly reported case). The orphan predates the beta, so any pre-existing second volume-group boot-policy directory reproduces it. It was harmless for ~2 years; macOS 27's stricter preflight rejects it. Ruled out (no effect): disk space, VPN, DNS, clock, Apple Account, refreshing the beta seed entitlement, reboot, Time Machine, re-downloading the installer, and Recovery reinstall (same 1259). Filed as FB24342236 — no response across beta 5, 6, 7. Questions: Is this a known issue with a planned fix, and in which build? Any supported recovery path that does NOT require a second Mac? (Recovery reinstall fails the same way.) Or is DFU Revive/Restore the only option? Will the public 27.0 release install on this machine, or hit the same preflight?

Hi everyone! I registered for the "Optimize your app for iPhone Duo" workshops in São Paulo on October 28, 29, and 30. However, all three registrations are still showing "Registration pending", even though the first workshop is scheduled for today. I'm wondering how the approval process works. Is it normal for registrations to remain pending until the event day? Do participants receive an email if they're not selected? I'm traveling from another city, so it's a bit difficult to plan transportation and accommodation without knowing whether I'll be able to attend. I've also tried contacting Apple but haven't received a response yet. Has anyone experienced something similar with Meet with Apple events? Thanks in advance!

tengo ipad air 11 con chip m3 que compre el año pasado, tengo la version 27.2 beta y no me aparece la opcion apple integillence. El idioma tanto del ipad comodel SIRI es españa y la region tambien es España.

Hi all, Hoping someone has hit and resolved this exact pattern, or can point me to the right escalation path. I'm trying to enrol in the Apple Developer Program as an Individual (Bengaluru, India). The Apple Developer iOS app shows "ID Verification Rejected" under the Apple Developer Program status — but with no specific reason and no retry button. The app does not surface what was actually wrong with the verification. What I have already done: Confirmed my Apple Account name ("Adarsh P S") exactly matches my Passport and PAN card (no extra spaces, correct initials). Opened Developer Support case #102900128848 — the agent replied once on 2026-05-28 asking for a screenshot, which I provided the same day. No follow-up in 3+ business days. Filed a parallel case #102905434551 on 2026-06-02 explicitly referencing the first as escalation, not a duplicate. Apple ID has 2FA enabled, trusted device active, billing address on file. Questions for anyone who has gotten past this: Did the verification reset come from support, or did re-attempting from the app after some delay work on its own? For Indian developers — which ID type was finally accepted (Passport vs PAN)? I understand Aadhaar is not accepted per UIDAI restriction. Is there a specific support topic / contact path that routes to the identity-verification team faster than "Membership and Account → Program Enrolment → Email"? Any pointers appreciated — my iOS 26 / SwiftUI app is built, tested, CI-green, and waiting only on enrolment. Thanks, Adarsh P S

Hello Apple Developer Support and community, I am posting because my Apple Developer Program enrollment is stuck after a successful payment, and I need escalation for manual review. Situation: Enrollment ID: 6663Q96FZN Paid order: D005386703 Invoice: MD22485970 (US$99, Apple Developer Program) Payment date: October 21, 2026 Support case: 102982824659 (Portuguese Developer Support / Vera) Account still shows: “matheus Augusto (Pending)” and “Purchase your membership / complete your purchase now” Important: I do NOT want an Individual membership. I need an Organization / Company enrollment. There was a mismatch during enrollment (individual enrollment name vs company billing name), and Apple sent a “Review your Apple Developer Program enrollment” email. I already replied clarifying that this must be Organization, and I followed up requesting a scheduled phone call. Apple previously tried to call but could not reach us; we provided an updated phone number and are waiting for a callback. I will NOT click “Continue to payment” again to avoid a duplicate charge. Could Apple please: Escalate case 102982824659 / enrollment 6663Q96FZN for manual review Convert / complete this enrollment as Organization (not Individual) Link the already paid order D005386703 / invoice MD22485970 to the membership Advise next documents needed (D-U-N-S, company website, legal docs, authority proof) Thank you for any help.

Hi everyone, I'm enrolling in the Apple Developer Program as an individual and I'm a bit stuck, so I hope someone from Apple can take a look. A few days ago I paid the €98.99 membership fee in the Apple Developer app on my iPhone. The money was taken from my bank account right away, and the "Apple Developer Program Membership" subscription shows as Active in my subscriptions. The problem is that my iPhone was signed in to the App Store with a different Apple ID than the one I use for my developer account. I only realized that afterwards. Around the same time, Apple asked me to verify my ID. I sent my documents and got the email "We received your documents". Right now: My developer account on the website shows "Pending" and keeps asking me to "Complete your purchase". The Apple Developer app says enrollment through the app isn't available for my developer account. The paid subscription is sitting on my other Apple ID. I don't want to pay a second time. Could you please link the payment I already made to my developer account and activate my membership? I've opened a case with Developer Support and added all the details there. Has anyone had this happen with two different Apple IDs? And could someone from Apple Developer Support please check my case? I'm building a game for iOS and can't go any further until the membership is active. Thanks a lot!

Hi everyone, I recently updated my Mac to macOS 27 Golden Gate Beta and have encountered a strange issue with window management over a remote connection. Issue: When connected to my Mac via Chrome Remote Desktop (CRD), I can no longer move application windows by dragging their title bars (outer frames). Details: Curiously, I can still drag and move individual tabs within apps (like Chrome or Terminal), which means mouse drag input itself is being transmitted correctly to the OS. This issue only happens when attempting to drag the window title bar/frame over a remote session. Local mouse/trackpad control works perfectly. Everything was working completely fine before the update to macOS 27 Golden Gate Beta. What I've tried so far (with no success): Toggled Accessibility permissions off and on for ChromeRemoteDesktopHost and restarted the Mac. Disallowed and re-allowed Screen Recording permissions. Completely re-installed the Chrome Remote Desktop host application. Disabled "Tile windows by dragging to screen edges" in System Settings to avoid snapping conflicts. It seems like WindowServer or the system-level window management is blocking or ignoring virtual mouse drag inputs specifically on title bars since this beta update. Has anyone else experienced this on macOS 27 Golden Gate Beta, or is there a known API change / security restriction in this version that affects remote input handling for WindowServer? Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello, I have been trying to create a developer account but when trying to input my address it shows up as invalid. The area is greyed out right with no option to try again. Any help with this would be really helpful. Kind regards, Sharukh

Hi, I'm enrolling my company in the Apple Developer Program and I'm stuck in a loop I can't get out of. Enrollment ID: 83G235M8WF Organisation: Connect Development Ltd Country: United Kingdom The problem: I received an email from Apple saying: "To complete your enrollment, please agree to the terms of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement." The link in that email goes to https://developer.apple.com/enroll/status/ That page only shows the default message, "Your enrollment is being processed." There is no button, checkbox or link to review or accept the agreement. What I've tried: Checking developer.apple.com/account for an agreement banner – nothing there Signing in to App Store Connect – it doesn't load properly, so I can't accept anything there either Signing out and back in, and trying a different browser Checking my inbox and spam for any other request (documents, verification call) – nothing found Could someone from Apple please look at this enrollment and either make the agreement available to accept or let me know what is actually still pending on your side? Thank you, Alex

Hello I have a problem with the dock crashing on macOS 27.2. Sometimes it doesn't respond to clicking, just nothing happens, other things work, I can, for example, type something into the browser and search for a website. The problem has more users because I also saw such an entry on reddit, I paste it below because it is also presented there what it looks like https://www.reddit.com/r/macmini/comments/1xewfy1/comment/19rpbkkcdi8p1/?context=1&screen_view_count=3 The problem began to appear from macOS 27 Golden Gate.

Has anyone else run into this? In tvOS 27.0, clicking the right or left side of the Siri Remote’s clickpad ring while music was playing under the Aerial screen saver would skip to the next or previous track. The screen saver would stay running, and my app would receive MPRemoteCommandCenter’s nextTrackCommand or previousTrackCommand. Since tvOS 27.2 RC (24K120), those clicks change the Aerial instead. Playback stays on the same track, and neither command reaches the app. I’ve confirmed it still happens in the public release of 27.2. Setup: Apple TV 4K, 2nd generation Silver Siri Remote Clickpad set to Click and Touch Aerial screen saver To reproduce, start music playback, wait for Aerial to start, then physically click the right or left side of the clickpad ring. I’ve also reproduced the same behavior in Apple’s Podcasts app. Testers initially reported it as a bug in our app, Playris, but our logs show the remote commands simply stop arriving while Aerial is active. Apple’s support article describes tapping left or right to change songs during Aerial playback. On this remote, tapping hasn’t worked for me on either version; clicking the ring was what worked on 27.0. I’ve filed FB25262013. Is there a supported workaround for apps using MPRemoteCommandCenter, or does this need a fix in tvOS?

after rejection i submitted my app on 17 oct but its still showing "Waiting for Review" any update on this why its taking so much time ?

I find a topic at reddit.com instigating a review exchange almost everyday like the following, trying to manipulate app ratings. Even when they are told that their accounts can be terminated, many of them are quite defiant. This is the type of developer account holders that I would like Apple, Inc. to go after for termination.

I renewed my Apple Developer Program membership on September 10, 2026 (individual, Team ID BK55WWJZJ7, I am the Account Holder). The developer portal shows the team and the membership as active until September 11, 2027, and the Program License Agreement v5032 as accepted on October 21, 2026. Accepting it again returns "You have already accepted the current agreement." App Store Connect (provider 127836135) still shows "Developer Program Membership Expired". My App Store Connect user detail reports hasContractInfo: false, and the Agreements page returns "User is not authorized" even though I have the Account Holder, Legal and Admin roles. Creating an app fails with "App Store Connect has agreement updates that must be resolved". Uploading a build to an existing app fails with "A required Apple agreement is missing or has expired". It looks like the free apps agreement was never reinstated in App Store Connect after my renewal. Email support has not responded and phone support shows as unavailable. Could someone at Apple please restore the contract for provider 127836135?

Hello everyone, My Apple Developer account is currently registered in Kosovo as an Individual, and I'm in the process of establishing a Limited Liability Company (Sh.P.K.) in Kosovo. We're planning to introduce auto-renewable subscriptions through Apple In-App Purchases, managed using RevenueCat. In App Store Connect, the Paid Apps Agreement currently shows the status "New", and Apple asks me to update my legal entity information before signing it. Before proceeding, I would like to clarify a few things: Can a legal entity registered in Kosovo (Sh.P.K. / LLC) sign the Paid Apps Agreement and receive revenue from In-App Purchases? Does Apple support payouts directly to a business bank account registered in Kosovo? Are there any restrictions regarding Kosovo banks? Has anyone successfully configured banking and tax information for a Kosovo-registered business? Can I convert my existing Individual Apple Developer membership to an Organization membership after registering the company and obtaining a D-U-N-S number, without affecting my already published app? Are there any additional requirements or limitations for Kosovo-based businesses that I should be aware of? My goal is to use Apple's standard In-App Purchase system rather than an external payment provider. I would particularly appreciate hearing from developers who have successfully completed this process in Kosovo or from anyone who can point me to official Apple documentation. Thank you!

No, it's not me. I've run into a seemingly inapproapriate topic at Redit where a guy or whomever it is suggests that they want to buy an unused developer account because he or she is not able to open one. ( https://www.reddit.com/r/appledevelopers/comments/1xfjodz/buying_a_developer_account/ ) Desperate people do desperate things, but it seems that this person is about cross a red line.

I tried to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual from Azerbaijan. I went through the whole process in the Apple Developer app, and my ID documents were accepted, but now I’m stuck on “Enrollment not completed - Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time.” I contacted Apple Support and they told me: “We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple Developer programs.” I’ve also contacted Apple Developer Support several times through email since 15th June and got no response. Has anyone had the same issue? Is there another way to escalate or re-verify my identity, or a different channel that actually responds?

This has been a bug for a while now on Mac OS. When you sync your desktop/documents folders with iCloud at random moments it gets stuck and never finish uploading. The folder says "waiting to upload" indefinitely. I notice it happens more often when you do a git commit on a folder that is synced with iCloud. Are there any work around for that?
