I'm working on an app that contains a USB Driver Kit extension for iPad (NOT MAC). The app contains two targets, the core app and the DriverKit extension target. I can run the app just fine using a dev cert and provisioning profile. ** What is the step-by-step process for signing the release build?** There seems to be no way to create a release profile for the Driver Kit target. I've tried multiple avenues, but come to a dead end on each. I have requested and received the correct entitlements. Also, on a separate note, has anyone achieved this process using Fastlane? It seems particularly resistant to building the app with the driverkit extension, even for dev builds. It complains about the driverkit dev profile not being an iOS profile. Thanks!

Among the newest crash reports downloaded by Xcode for my App Store app there is one that contains a single thread, crashed at libsecinit_appsandbox.c, without any trace of my app name. What could possibly cause such a crash? Is this something related with app signing? The app has been on the App Store for a long time and this never happened to me.

I am signing my app using this command: codesign --verbose=4 --force --options=runtime --deep --timestamp --sign "${APP_IDENTITY}" "${APP_FILE}" --entitlements "./Protect.entitlements I have ensured that the necessary provisioning profiles are embedded in the IPA file. I am also verifying the signing using codesign -dvv ./JumpCloud\ Protect\ Staging.ipa and codesign --verify --deep --verbose ./JumpCloud\ Protect\ Staging.ipa Despite following the above steps, when I attempt to upload the IPA file to Transporter, I receive the following error message: Missing or invalid signature.

I am developing a mobile application with Delphi 11. I compiled the application using iOS SDK 17.5. I uploaded it to the Apple Store for testing and first tested it on an iPhone 7 (software version 15.7.1). The application worked smoothly. Later, I tested it on an iPhone 14 (software version 17.6.1) and an iPhone 11 (software version 18). On both of these devices, the application crashed before opening. Since the same application is available on the Apple Store, I downloaded it from there and saw that it worked fine on the last two devices. I thought that the SDK needed to be upgraded for newly compiled and submitted applications. However, in that case, it should have thrown an error when submitting the application to the Apple Store. I updated macOS and Xcode and upgraded to SDK 18. I also set SDK 18 in Delphi. When I compiled with these settings, I again saw that it worked normally on my first device, while the application crashed on the next two devices. Considering it could be an issue with a module in the application, I compiled a blank form by removing all permission requests for testing, but the result did not change. What can I do about this? Do you have any suggestions?

Hello, We are using automatic signing for a couple of projects, and we're struggling to get it to work in a CI with Xcode 16. It was working with Xcode 15 but with Xcode 16 we get the following errors : error: The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to log in with account ''. The login details for account '' were rejected. error: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.bundleid.my" doesn't include signing certificate "Apple Development: Foobar (TEAMID)". Any ideas ?

I have tried to manually install binaries using Finder by clicking and dragging from the Desktop into "/usr/local/bin/". The binaries come with a collection of frameworks etc. All the binaries are adhoc signed. macOS asks for Admin credentials which is fine. But then, when I execute the binaries in Terminal, Gatekeeper shows the now expected "'[binary"] Not Opened Apple could not verify ........" etc. It shows that dialog for every component and requires user input 2-3 times to allow each component of which there are perhaps dozens. BUT, none of that happens if I install those binaries using AppleScript. So, it might have a call like this: do shell script "curl -L " & download_URL & " -o " & download_binary_zip with administrator privileges do shell script "unzip -o " & download_binary_zip & " -d " & usr_bin_folder with administrator privileges The resulting installs work perfectly. Is this intended ? Using both install methods requires Admin credentials. Why does using a script work but using Finder does not ?

I'm using PyBind11 to allow use of Python code within my C++ application. The application links successfully, but on the py::module::import below: LOGICAL WebServer:: CheckForPort() { EPython::Prepare(); auto socket = py::module::import("socket"); auto s = socket.attr("socket")(socket.attr("AF_INET"),socket.attr("SOCK_STREAM")); if (s == Py_None) return L_TRUE; auto rc = s.attr("connect_ex")("localhost",8810); // // Returns zero if port in in use // return (rc.cast<int>() == 0); } I get a run-time error libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type pybind11::error_already_set: ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/lib-dynload/math.cpython-311-darwin.so, 0x0002): tried: '/Users/Shared/Develop/IntelApps/WinTD 5/DerivedData/WinTDOSX/Build/Products/Debug/math.cpython-311-darwin.so' (no such file), '/usr/lib/system/introspection/math.cpython-311-darwin.so' (no such file, not in dyld cache), '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/lib-dynload/math.cpython-311-darwin.so' (code signature in <855730B8-106D-389C-BF65-36A98463EDB5> '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/lib-dynload/math.cpython-311-darwin.so' not valid for use in process: mapping process and mapped file (non-platform) have different Team IDs), I have no idea how to fix the code signature error---this is intended for distribution, so that presumably would be a file on the user's computer. I tried to link in the .so file, but that's a rabbit hole as there are a near endless set of further dependencies.

Hi, I've recently observed a sudden increase in support requests for one of my apps on the Mac App Store, reporting the error " is damaged and can't be opened. Please re-download it from the Mac App Store", all on different systems: macOS 12, macOS 13, and macOS 15 Sequoia. Re-downloading does not resolve the issue most of the time. One user reported that being connected to the internet resolved it - perhaps this is an OCSP issue again? I myself cannot reproduce this issue. Has there been a change in code-signing recently? Have some certificates changed? Anything else I should be aware of? What is the best course of action to have users take who experience this, when re-downloading the app from the Mac App Store does not work? Thank you, – Matthias

Hi, I have an Electron app that I build, sign, notarize, and staple using electron-builder. It includes Sound Exchange (SoX), which I was invoking from the homebrew installed version. It builds a dmg and works fine. However, my users are non-technical, thus cannot be expected to install dev tools, homebrew, and sox from the command line and set paths. Therefore, I need to include a SoX binary in my app. I have a static SoX binary that works. However, when I try to run it from my electron app, I get Error: spawn / <path>/sox EACCES. Electron-builder is signing the SoX binary codesign --sign <sign number> --force --timestamp --options runtime --entitlements dist/entitlements/entitlements.mac.plist /<app path>Contents/Resources/bin/sox/sox The app sign/notarize works fine, the dmg mounts, and the app runs until I try to invoke SoX. Also, I verified the sox binary and entire app are signed and the app staple is valid. I am running the app from /Applications. Please help me!

The actual error: pkgbuild: error: Could not find appropriate signing identity for “Developer ID installer: My Name (DeveloperID)”. I'm trying to sign a program written with gfortran. The steps worked the last time (Mar 23) I built this code. The steps to error: a) xcrun notarytool store-credentials --apple-id "***" --team-id "yyy" Giving Profile Name zzz and App-specific password b) codesign --force --timestamp --options=runtime -s "Developer ID Application: My Name (yyy)" AppName c) pkgbuild --root ROOT --identifier org.aaa.bbb --version "1.1.1" --sign "Developer ID installer: My Name (yyy)" AppName.pkg ROOT contains the package contents At this point I get the error pkgbuild: error: Could not find appropriate signing identity for “Developer ID installer: My Name (yyy)” Are there steps that have changed. Any suggestions? Thanks, David

Hi Apple community, many thanks in advance for your help. My macOS app embeds a Python interpreter, compiled from source, including the Python executable and its associated libraries.

I would like to share my new project on an open source repository like GitHub. it need capabilities like iCloud. The problem is that I would prefer not have my appleid email being send to the open source repository. I saw that I can exclude files but I would be easier if the open source version had no Apple account associated with it. how should I manage the open source version vs the App Store one. Thank you

Hello, We use automatic signing and Fastlane on our CI. Fastlane uses xcodebuild to create an archive. xcodebuild -workspace ourApp.xcworkspace -scheme app-dev -destination generic/platform=iOS -archivePath app-dev.xcarchive -skipPackagePluginValidation -allowProvisioningUpdates -authenticationKeyID OurAppStoreConnectAuthKey -authenticationKeyIssuerID OurAppStoreConnectAuthKeyIssuerId -authenticationKeyPath /path/to/OurAppStoreConnectKey.p8 clean archive All works fine, but .... Why does Xcode 16 log out logged Apple ID and create a new every build? As a result, we have more and more Unknown Apple IDs in Xcode, and for each of them an error appears in log. Error: xcodebuild[3174:1804334] DVTDeveloperAccountManager: Failed to load credentials for 0A1DF15C-ETC-ETC: Error Domain=DVTDeveloperAccountCredentialsError Code=0 "Invalid credentials in keychain for 0A1DF15C-ETC-ETC, missing Xcode-Username" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Invalid credentials in keychain for 0A1DF15C-ETC-ETC, missing Xcode-Username} Of course, the originally logged-in Apple ID has an error corresponding to his non-logged-in state. xcodebuild[3174:1804334] DVTDeveloperAccountManager: Failed to load credentials for originally_logged-in_user: Error Domain=DVTDeveloperAccountCredentialsError Code=0 "Invalid credentials in keychain for originally_logged-in_user, missing Xcode-Token" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Invalid credentials in keychain for originally_logged-in_user, missing Xcode-Token} Why does this happen and how can it be fixed? Why does Xcode 16 log out its logged Apple ID?

When I try to launch my own Java app, I get the following error message. xpcproxy exited due to OS_REASON_CODESIGNING | Launch Constraint Violation, error info: c[5]p[1]m[1]e[0], (Constraint not matched) launch type 3, failure proc [vc: 1]: /bin/bash As far as I know, the failing process path is /bin/bash. This issue is only happening on macOS Sequoia. The Java app works without any issue on MacOS Sonoma or any previous macOS versions. I did not make any changes, including launch constraints or any other settings. After updating to macOS Sequoia, I started getting this error and can no longer launch my app. Thank you so much.
