How to set permanent environment variables?
I am looking to set environment variables for the use of some applications that are launched by icon or from the dock. I am aware of launchctl setenv for setting environment variables, but I am also aware that the effects of that last only until the next reboot. I find various people posting hacks that come down to configuring some .zsh* initialization files, but those fines are not used until an interactive login session is started, and so are not of value for the case where the user does not happen to launch terminal The particular environment variable of interest at the moment is JAVA_HOME for use by MATLAB . MATLAB is started by the shell script /Applications/MATLAB_R20xxx.app/bin/matlab and does not appear to have a .plist file associated with it . Editing the shell script would not be ideal.

How is Security Delay still so broken?
I'm sitting at my house and trying to sign my test device out of my apple ID so I can sign into a Sandbox user, but now I have an hour to kill because of this terribly broken "security" feature that thinks it's in an unfamiliar location, despite being at the only location it's ever known. Looks like I'll just be disabling this feature all together. Especially as a device with Developer Mode enabled, which gets reset regularly, there should be additional options here. Come on!

WeatherKit DayWeather::date Timezone Issue
I use WeatherKit with Swift to get multiple cities weather by longitude and latitude. But I use this API in WeatherService for daily forecast: final public func weather<T>(for location: CLLocation, including dataSet: WeatherQuery<T>) async throws -> T And I found there is something wired: The date of WeatherKit::DayWeather is based on my device's timezone settings. Tokyo's Day Weather is start at UTC+8, New York' Day Weather is start UTC+8. Is there any way to set timezone correctly?

There were problems encountered during the development of core spotlight.
In IOS17 and IOS18, core spotlight can only match app contents by searching for the displayName, but cannot hit the contents by using keywords. Moreover, when matching the app content by searching for the "displayName", it requires inputting four consecutive characters to achieve a match.These issues did not occur in iOS 16. What is the reason for this? Here is my code. func addItemToIndex(_ item: QSpotlightItem) { let attributeSet = CSSearchableItemAttributeSet(contentType: .item) attributeSet.title = item.title attributeSet.displayName = item.title attributeSet.contentDescription = item.contentDescription attributeSet.keywords = item.keywords attributeSet.thumbnailData = item.thumbnailImage attributeSet.contactKeywords = item.keywords attributeSet.supportsNavigation = true let searchableItem = CSSearchableItem(uniqueIdentifier: item.id, domainIdentifier: "xxx", attributeSet: attributeSet) searchableItem.expirationDate = .distantFuture CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems([searchableItem]) { error in if let error = error { } else { } } }

Does Apple Screen Time API Allow Access to App Usage Data for Custom Rewards?
Hi everyone, I'm working on an app for parents and kids where parents can define screen time goals or restrict usage of certain app categories (like social media or games). If the kid follows those rules—for example, by using their device less or avoiding restricted categories—they would earn points or rewards in the app. I’ve been exploring if the Apple Screen Time API allows developers to access this kind of data (like total screen time, app usage by category, etc.) so that I can track the kid’s behavior and reward them accordingly. Is it possible to programmatically access this data and implement such a reward system within my app? If so, what’s the best way to get started or which APIs should I look into? Thanks in advance for your help!

In Core Spotlight, it requires four consecutive characters to index the content. Only through title or displayName can the content be indexed.
In Core Spotlight, one can only index content by using title or displayName, and it requires four consecutive characters for indexing. These situations occurred in iOS 17 and 18. In iOS 16, I could not only index content by title or displayName, but also by keyword. Moreover, there was no restriction of requiring four consecutive characters. I could index my app content by simply inputting one character. Here is my code.https://github.com/kritto1/corespotlight-bug-test/tree/main @available(iOS 14, *) func addItemToIndex(_ item: QSpotlightItem) { let attributeSet = CSSearchableItemAttributeSet(contentType: .item) attributeSet.title = item.title attributeSet.displayName = item.title attributeSet.contentDescription = item.contentDescription attributeSet.keywords = item.keywords attributeSet.thumbnailData = item.thumbnailImage attributeSet.contactKeywords = item.keywords attributeSet.supportsNavigation = true let searchableItem = CSSearchableItem(uniqueIdentifier: item.id, domainIdentifier: "com.qunar.iphone.spotlight", attributeSet: attributeSet) searchableItem.expirationDate = .distantFuture CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems([searchableItem]) { error in if let error = error { } else { } } } @available(iOS 14, *) func addToSpotlightIndex() { let spotlightHotel = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_1", title: "查询酒店住宿", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["酒店", "住宿"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightHotel) let spotlightFlight = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_2", title: "查询和预订机票", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["查询", "预订", "机票"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightFlight) let spotlightSight = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_3", title: "查询预订门票", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["查询", "预订", "门票"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightSight) }

Can not replicate the Apple Review error
Hello there! So Im trying to upload an app to the App Store for iphone and Ipad, but from the revision team the same message always appears, the app crash. So I know the "it works on my computer" sounds bad but....works on my computer and my test system. Dont know what to do since I dont know how to replicate the error. This is the rely they sent me: Issue Description The app exhibited one or more bugs that would negatively impact users. Bug description: at time of review the app’s interface went blank at launch. Review device details: Device type: iPad Air (5th generation) OS version: iPadOS 18.4.1 Anyone has any idea on how can I replicate the error and maybe check the logs? Im completely blind on this one.

identitylookup needed for ILMessageFilterQueryHandling?
My iOS app uses a Message Filter extension (via ILMessageFilterQueryHandling) and works only when run directly as the extension target. When installed normally (via TestFlight), the filter does not trigger at all — which I now believe is because iOS enforces the com.apple.developer.identitylookup entitlement at runtime. Anyone know anything about this? I put in a request for the entitlement last week but heard nothing back. Called Apple "technical" support and they had no idea what I was talking about. The documentation around this is EXTREMELY lacking in my opinion...

When implementing a custom Mach exception handler, all recovery operations for SIGBUS/SIGSEGV except the first attempt will fail.
Recovery operations for signals SIGBUS/SIGSEGV fail when the process intercepts Mach exceptions. Only the first recovery attempt succeeds, and subsequent Signal notifications are no longer received within the process. I think this is a bug in XNU. The test code main.c is: If we comment out AddMachExceptionServer;, everything will return to normal. #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/arm/kern_return.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/kern_return.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/mach.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/message.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/port.h&gt; #include &lt;pthread.h&gt; #include &lt;setjmp.h&gt; #include &lt;signal.h&gt; #include &lt;stdbool.h&gt; #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt; #include &lt;string.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/_types/_mach_port_t.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt; #include &lt;unistd.h&gt; #pragma pack(4) typedef struct { mach_msg_header_t header; mach_msg_body_t body; mach_msg_port_descriptor_t thread; mach_msg_port_descriptor_t task; NDR_record_t NDR; exception_type_t exception; mach_msg_type_number_t codeCount; integer_t code[2]; /** Padding to avoid RCV_TOO_LARGE. */ char padding[512]; } MachExceptionMessage; typedef struct { mach_msg_header_t header; NDR_record_t NDR; kern_return_t returnCode; } MachReplyMessage; #pragma pack() static jmp_buf jump_buffer; static void sigbus_handler(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { printf("Caught SIGBUS at address: %p\n", info-&gt;si_addr); longjmp(jump_buffer, 1); } static void *RunExcServer(void *userdata) { kern_return_t kr = KERN_FAILURE; mach_port_t exception_port = MACH_PORT_NULL; kr = mach_port_allocate(mach_task_self_, MACH_PORT_RIGHT_RECEIVE, &amp;exception_port); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("mach_port_allocate: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } kr = mach_port_insert_right(mach_task_self_, exception_port, exception_port, MACH_MSG_TYPE_MAKE_SEND); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("mach_port_insert_right: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } kr = task_set_exception_ports( mach_task_self_, EXC_MASK_ALL &amp; ~(EXC_MASK_RPC_ALERT | EXC_MASK_GUARD), exception_port, EXCEPTION_DEFAULT | MACH_EXCEPTION_CODES,THREAD_STATE_NONE); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("task_set_exception_ports: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } MachExceptionMessage exceptionMessage = {{0}}; MachReplyMessage replyMessage = {{0}}; for (;;) { printf("Wating for message\n"); // Wait for a message. kern_return_t kr = mach_msg(&amp;exceptionMessage.header, MACH_RCV_MSG, 0, sizeof(exceptionMessage), exception_port, MACH_MSG_TIMEOUT_NONE, MACH_PORT_NULL); if (kr == KERN_SUCCESS) { // Send a reply saying "I didn't handle this exception". replyMessage.header = exceptionMessage.header; replyMessage.NDR = exceptionMessage.NDR; replyMessage.returnCode = KERN_FAILURE; printf("Catch exception: %d codecnt:%d code[0]: %d, code[1]: %d\n", exceptionMessage.exception, exceptionMessage.codeCount, exceptionMessage.code[0], exceptionMessage.code[1]); mach_msg(&amp;replyMessage.header, MACH_SEND_MSG, sizeof(replyMessage), 0, MACH_PORT_NULL, MACH_MSG_TIMEOUT_NONE, MACH_PORT_NULL); } else { printf("Mach error: %s\n", mach_error_string(kr)); } } return NULL; } static bool AddMachExceptionServer(void) { int error; pthread_attr_t attr; pthread_attr_init(&amp;attr); pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&amp;attr, PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED); pthread_t ptid = NULL; error = pthread_create(&amp;ptid, &amp;attr, &amp;RunExcServer, NULL); if (error != 0) { pthread_attr_destroy(&amp;attr); return false; } pthread_attr_destroy(&amp;attr); return true; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { AddMachExceptionServer(); struct sigaction sa; memset(&amp;sa, 0, sizeof(sa)); sa.sa_sigaction = sigbus_handler; sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; // #if TARGET_OS_IPHONE // sigaction(SIGSEGV, &amp;sa, NULL); // #else sigaction(SIGBUS, &amp;sa, NULL); // #endif int i = 0; while (i++ &lt; 3) { printf("\nProgram start %d\n", i); bzero(&amp;jump_buffer, sizeof(jump_buffer)); if (setjmp(jump_buffer) == 0) { int fd = open("tempfile", O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0666); ftruncate(fd, 0); char *map = (char *)mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); close(fd); unlink("tempfile"); printf("About to write to mmap of size 0 — should trigger SIGBUS...\n"); map[0] = 'X'; // ❌ triger a SIGBUS munmap(map, 4096); } else { printf("Recovered from SIGBUS via longjmp!\n"); } } printf("_exit(0)\n"); _exit(0); return 0; }

ContactAccessButton presents invisible sheet
On a device with approx 800 contacts, the sheet presented when tapping ContactAccessButton with multiple matches briefly appears (.25 seconds) before disappearing, leaving the view below in a dimmed, slightly zoomed out, non-interactive state as if a sheet were being presented. Swiping down dismisses the invisible sheet returns the underlying view to a normal state. Is there a way to avoid this? It appears possibly similar to https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/762077 Logs (exact duplicates removed) #ContactsButton response after touch -- Should show UI LaunchServices: store (null) or url (null) was nil: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler} Attempt to map database failed: permission was denied.

How to get the bundleIdentifier or app name from FamilyActivitySelection's applicationTokens?
I'm working with the FamilyControls and DeviceActivity frameworks in iOS (Swift). In my app, I collect selected apps using a FamilyActivitySelection, and I access the selected apps via selection.applicationTokens, which gives me a Set. I would like to get either the bundle identifier or the display name of the selected apps from these ApplicationTokens. I tried creating an Application instance using: let app = Application(token: token) print(app.bundleIdentifier) print(app.localizedDisplayName) However, both bundleIdentifier and localizedDisplayName are always nil. My questions are: Outside the extension (in the main app), how can I get the bundleIdentifier or display name from an ApplicationToken? Is there an Apple-recommended way to resolve a Token into something human-readable or usable? If not, what is the best practice to store or identify user-selected apps for later use? Environment: iOS 17, Swift 5, Using FamilyControls and DeviceActivity APIs. Thank you for any help!

Problem setting up AASA file (paths with queries)
In a project having both an app and a website, the following two website urls are to be handed over to the corresponding app: https://www.example.com/search?plus https://www.example.com/search?query=something In AASA file, this becomes: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": { "plus": "", "query": "?*" } } However, finally it does not work for both urls. Only the one with "query" works by hand over to app. For investigation, I have tried this for the problematic link: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": "plus" } and this works. How can I get both to work? (note that for the sake of brevity, only a portion of the AASA files are shown)

Universal links: Open in "MyApp" doesn't launch my app
I've a strange problem which is only occurring on 2 client devices. We have enabled Universal links, and have it fully tested and working. On one client device, the link never opens our app; but here's the strange thing: If I long-press on our link (in Messages), it gives a preview (as expected), and the context menu offers "Open in ", as well as "Open in Safari". Tapping on "Open in " does nothing. I've tried the following: Checked I could access the site-association file over https with no redirects Enabled developer mode and used universal link debug feature: pasted the same link - Developer mode says it will open the app. I've carried out the sysdiagnose; And there are entries in there for our app in swcutil_show.txt. Snipped below: Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: www.<mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: <mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: *.<mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The version numbers match the installed version of my app I've tried running logging and just capturing logs before and after I press the "open in ", but there's nothing suspicious in there. And the kicker - it's only happening on a single device. No other devices are experiencing this.

Come forzare la visualizzazione di un font diverso (es. Helvetica su iOS, Arial su Windows) in un PDF non incorporando i caratteri
Sto cercando di creare un PDF che, a seconda del sistema operativo, utilizzi un font diverso. Visto che mi è capitato di scaricare da Internet un PDF che veniva visualizzato con con Arial su Windows e con Helvetica su iOS/macOS (anche su siti di drive, OneDrive ) vorrei creare un PDF che venga visualizzato con Arial su Windows e con Helvetica su iOS/macOS, sfruttando i meccanismi di fallback dei font di sistema (senza incorporare i font nel PDF). Ho provato a: • Scrivere il documento in Arial da Word su Windows; • Scrivere il documento in Helvetica da Word su Windows; • Disattivare l’incorporamento dei font nel salvataggio PDF su “Word”; Tuttavia, su iOS , in app come Onedrive, il PDF continua a visualizzarsi in Arial C’è un modo per: Evitare che iOS usi Arial se presente? Far sì che venga usato Helvetica come fallback? mi interessa anche capire se si può impedire ad iOS di usare Arial in lettura PDF. Qualcuno ha affrontato un caso simile o conosce un modo affidabile per ottenere questo comportamento cross-platform?

Rosetta 2 - Build 1.0.0.0.1.1744447383
Goal: Manually install an explicit version of Rosetta2 Background: Me and some customers have an old app (intel) which perfectly worked with Rosetta2. In the last week of April most macheines were updated to Mac Os 15.4.1. and the app still starts but certain functionality is bronken. Some fields ind the forms don't write back to the database, some data can't be read from the database. (Most installations will fade out over the next month but it would be great to have the app fully working for data migration.) First try was to step back to 15.4. (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): no change, app still broken Second try back to 15: (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): App still broken (!) This is interesting as the app worked for month using Mac Os 15! Third try: Back to MacOS 14 (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): App is working like nothing happend. (All attempts on same hardware of course.) Reasoning: Rosetta2 was the only software (besides the app itself) installed after clean MacOS installs. Now, my guess is that there were might be a change in Rosetta2 as the app worked on MacOs 15 up the update 15.4.1. was installed. Checking versions (pkgutil --pkg-info com.apple.pkg.RosettaUpdateAuto): Rosetta version MacOS 14: 1.0.0.0.1.1722778371 Rosetta version on MacOS 15.4.1: 1.0.0.0.1.1744447383 To fully verify the cause it would be great to uninstall Rosetta on MacOS15.4.1 machine and explicit install lower version (1.0.0.0.1.1722778371) which must be available somewhere as MacOS14 still gets this version. I know how to uninstall - is there a possibility to manually install an explicit version of Rosetta2?

There were problems encountered during the development of core spotlight.
In IOS17 and IOS18, core spotlight can only match app contents by searching for the displayName, but cannot hit the contents by using keywords. Moreover, when matching the app content by searching for the "displayName", it requires inputting four consecutive characters to achieve a match.These issues did not occur in iOS 16. What is the reason for this? Here is my code. func addItemToIndex(_ item: QSpotlightItem) { let attributeSet = CSSearchableItemAttributeSet(contentType: .item) attributeSet.title = item.title attributeSet.displayName = item.title attributeSet.contentDescription = item.contentDescription attributeSet.keywords = item.keywords attributeSet.thumbnailData = item.thumbnailImage attributeSet.contactKeywords = item.keywords attributeSet.supportsNavigation = true let searchableItem = CSSearchableItem(uniqueIdentifier: item.id, domainIdentifier: "xxx", attributeSet: attributeSet) searchableItem.expirationDate = .distantFuture CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems([searchableItem]) { error in if let error = error { } else { } } }

Does Apple Screen Time API Allow Access to App Usage Data for Custom Rewards?
Hi everyone, I'm working on an app for parents and kids where parents can define screen time goals or restrict usage of certain app categories (like social media or games). If the kid follows those rules—for example, by using their device less or avoiding restricted categories—they would earn points or rewards in the app. I’ve been exploring if the Apple Screen Time API allows developers to access this kind of data (like total screen time, app usage by category, etc.) so that I can track the kid’s behavior and reward them accordingly. Is it possible to programmatically access this data and implement such a reward system within my app? If so, what’s the best way to get started or which APIs should I look into? Thanks in advance for your help!

In Core Spotlight, it requires four consecutive characters to index the content. Only through title or displayName can the content be indexed.
In Core Spotlight, one can only index content by using title or displayName, and it requires four consecutive characters for indexing. These situations occurred in iOS 17 and 18. In iOS 16, I could not only index content by title or displayName, but also by keyword. Moreover, there was no restriction of requiring four consecutive characters. I could index my app content by simply inputting one character. Here is my code.https://github.com/kritto1/corespotlight-bug-test/tree/main @available(iOS 14, *) func addItemToIndex(_ item: QSpotlightItem) { let attributeSet = CSSearchableItemAttributeSet(contentType: .item) attributeSet.title = item.title attributeSet.displayName = item.title attributeSet.contentDescription = item.contentDescription attributeSet.keywords = item.keywords attributeSet.thumbnailData = item.thumbnailImage attributeSet.contactKeywords = item.keywords attributeSet.supportsNavigation = true let searchableItem = CSSearchableItem(uniqueIdentifier: item.id, domainIdentifier: "com.qunar.iphone.spotlight", attributeSet: attributeSet) searchableItem.expirationDate = .distantFuture CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems([searchableItem]) { error in if let error = error { } else { } } } @available(iOS 14, *) func addToSpotlightIndex() { let spotlightHotel = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_1", title: "查询酒店住宿", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["酒店", "住宿"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightHotel) let spotlightFlight = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_2", title: "查询和预订机票", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["查询", "预订", "机票"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightFlight) let spotlightSight = QSpotlightItem( id: "corespotlight_3", title: "查询预订门票", contentDescription: "", thumbnailImage: UIImage(named: "img2")?.pngData(), keywords: ["查询", "预订", "门票"] ) addItemToIndex(spotlightSight) }

Can not replicate the Apple Review error
Hello there! So Im trying to upload an app to the App Store for iphone and Ipad, but from the revision team the same message always appears, the app crash. So I know the "it works on my computer" sounds bad but....works on my computer and my test system. Dont know what to do since I dont know how to replicate the error. This is the rely they sent me: Issue Description The app exhibited one or more bugs that would negatively impact users. Bug description: at time of review the app’s interface went blank at launch. Review device details: Device type: iPad Air (5th generation) OS version: iPadOS 18.4.1 Anyone has any idea on how can I replicate the error and maybe check the logs? Im completely blind on this one.

identitylookup needed for ILMessageFilterQueryHandling?
My iOS app uses a Message Filter extension (via ILMessageFilterQueryHandling) and works only when run directly as the extension target. When installed normally (via TestFlight), the filter does not trigger at all — which I now believe is because iOS enforces the com.apple.developer.identitylookup entitlement at runtime. Anyone know anything about this? I put in a request for the entitlement last week but heard nothing back. Called Apple "technical" support and they had no idea what I was talking about. The documentation around this is EXTREMELY lacking in my opinion...

When implementing a custom Mach exception handler, all recovery operations for SIGBUS/SIGSEGV except the first attempt will fail.
Recovery operations for signals SIGBUS/SIGSEGV fail when the process intercepts Mach exceptions. Only the first recovery attempt succeeds, and subsequent Signal notifications are no longer received within the process. I think this is a bug in XNU. The test code main.c is: If we comment out AddMachExceptionServer;, everything will return to normal. #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/arm/kern_return.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/kern_return.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/mach.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/message.h&gt; #include &lt;mach/port.h&gt; #include &lt;pthread.h&gt; #include &lt;setjmp.h&gt; #include &lt;signal.h&gt; #include &lt;stdbool.h&gt; #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt; #include &lt;string.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/_types/_mach_port_t.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt; #include &lt;unistd.h&gt; #pragma pack(4) typedef struct { mach_msg_header_t header; mach_msg_body_t body; mach_msg_port_descriptor_t thread; mach_msg_port_descriptor_t task; NDR_record_t NDR; exception_type_t exception; mach_msg_type_number_t codeCount; integer_t code[2]; /** Padding to avoid RCV_TOO_LARGE. */ char padding[512]; } MachExceptionMessage; typedef struct { mach_msg_header_t header; NDR_record_t NDR; kern_return_t returnCode; } MachReplyMessage; #pragma pack() static jmp_buf jump_buffer; static void sigbus_handler(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { printf("Caught SIGBUS at address: %p\n", info-&gt;si_addr); longjmp(jump_buffer, 1); } static void *RunExcServer(void *userdata) { kern_return_t kr = KERN_FAILURE; mach_port_t exception_port = MACH_PORT_NULL; kr = mach_port_allocate(mach_task_self_, MACH_PORT_RIGHT_RECEIVE, &amp;exception_port); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("mach_port_allocate: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } kr = mach_port_insert_right(mach_task_self_, exception_port, exception_port, MACH_MSG_TYPE_MAKE_SEND); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("mach_port_insert_right: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } kr = task_set_exception_ports( mach_task_self_, EXC_MASK_ALL &amp; ~(EXC_MASK_RPC_ALERT | EXC_MASK_GUARD), exception_port, EXCEPTION_DEFAULT | MACH_EXCEPTION_CODES,THREAD_STATE_NONE); if (kr != KERN_SUCCESS) { printf("task_set_exception_ports: %s", mach_error_string(kr)); return NULL; } MachExceptionMessage exceptionMessage = {{0}}; MachReplyMessage replyMessage = {{0}}; for (;;) { printf("Wating for message\n"); // Wait for a message. kern_return_t kr = mach_msg(&amp;exceptionMessage.header, MACH_RCV_MSG, 0, sizeof(exceptionMessage), exception_port, MACH_MSG_TIMEOUT_NONE, MACH_PORT_NULL); if (kr == KERN_SUCCESS) { // Send a reply saying "I didn't handle this exception". replyMessage.header = exceptionMessage.header; replyMessage.NDR = exceptionMessage.NDR; replyMessage.returnCode = KERN_FAILURE; printf("Catch exception: %d codecnt:%d code[0]: %d, code[1]: %d\n", exceptionMessage.exception, exceptionMessage.codeCount, exceptionMessage.code[0], exceptionMessage.code[1]); mach_msg(&amp;replyMessage.header, MACH_SEND_MSG, sizeof(replyMessage), 0, MACH_PORT_NULL, MACH_MSG_TIMEOUT_NONE, MACH_PORT_NULL); } else { printf("Mach error: %s\n", mach_error_string(kr)); } } return NULL; } static bool AddMachExceptionServer(void) { int error; pthread_attr_t attr; pthread_attr_init(&amp;attr); pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&amp;attr, PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED); pthread_t ptid = NULL; error = pthread_create(&amp;ptid, &amp;attr, &amp;RunExcServer, NULL); if (error != 0) { pthread_attr_destroy(&amp;attr); return false; } pthread_attr_destroy(&amp;attr); return true; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { AddMachExceptionServer(); struct sigaction sa; memset(&amp;sa, 0, sizeof(sa)); sa.sa_sigaction = sigbus_handler; sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; // #if TARGET_OS_IPHONE // sigaction(SIGSEGV, &amp;sa, NULL); // #else sigaction(SIGBUS, &amp;sa, NULL); // #endif int i = 0; while (i++ &lt; 3) { printf("\nProgram start %d\n", i); bzero(&amp;jump_buffer, sizeof(jump_buffer)); if (setjmp(jump_buffer) == 0) { int fd = open("tempfile", O_RDWR | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0666); ftruncate(fd, 0); char *map = (char *)mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); close(fd); unlink("tempfile"); printf("About to write to mmap of size 0 — should trigger SIGBUS...\n"); map[0] = 'X'; // ❌ triger a SIGBUS munmap(map, 4096); } else { printf("Recovered from SIGBUS via longjmp!\n"); } } printf("_exit(0)\n"); _exit(0); return 0; }

ContactAccessButton presents invisible sheet
On a device with approx 800 contacts, the sheet presented when tapping ContactAccessButton with multiple matches briefly appears (.25 seconds) before disappearing, leaving the view below in a dimmed, slightly zoomed out, non-interactive state as if a sheet were being presented. Swiping down dismisses the invisible sheet returns the underlying view to a normal state. Is there a way to avoid this? It appears possibly similar to https://aninterestingwebsite.com/forums/thread/762077 Logs (exact duplicates removed) #ContactsButton response after touch -- Should show UI LaunchServices: store (null) or url (null) was nil: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-54 "process may not map database" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=process may not map database, _LSLine=72, _LSFunction=_LSServer_GetServerStoreForConnectionWithCompletionHandler} Attempt to map database failed: permission was denied.

How to get the bundleIdentifier or app name from FamilyActivitySelection's applicationTokens?
I'm working with the FamilyControls and DeviceActivity frameworks in iOS (Swift). In my app, I collect selected apps using a FamilyActivitySelection, and I access the selected apps via selection.applicationTokens, which gives me a Set. I would like to get either the bundle identifier or the display name of the selected apps from these ApplicationTokens. I tried creating an Application instance using: let app = Application(token: token) print(app.bundleIdentifier) print(app.localizedDisplayName) However, both bundleIdentifier and localizedDisplayName are always nil. My questions are: Outside the extension (in the main app), how can I get the bundleIdentifier or display name from an ApplicationToken? Is there an Apple-recommended way to resolve a Token into something human-readable or usable? If not, what is the best practice to store or identify user-selected apps for later use? Environment: iOS 17, Swift 5, Using FamilyControls and DeviceActivity APIs. Thank you for any help!

Problem setting up AASA file (paths with queries)
In a project having both an app and a website, the following two website urls are to be handed over to the corresponding app: https://www.example.com/search?plus https://www.example.com/search?query=something In AASA file, this becomes: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": { "plus": "", "query": "?*" } } However, finally it does not work for both urls. Only the one with "query" works by hand over to app. For investigation, I have tried this for the problematic link: "components": [ { "/": "/search", "?": "plus" } and this works. How can I get both to work? (note that for the sake of brevity, only a portion of the AASA files are shown)

Universal links: Open in "MyApp" doesn't launch my app
I've a strange problem which is only occurring on 2 client devices. We have enabled Universal links, and have it fully tested and working. On one client device, the link never opens our app; but here's the strange thing: If I long-press on our link (in Messages), it gives a preview (as expected), and the context menu offers "Open in ", as well as "Open in Safari". Tapping on "Open in " does nothing. I've tried the following: Checked I could access the site-association file over https with no redirects Enabled developer mode and used universal link debug feature: pasted the same link - Developer mode says it will open the app. I've carried out the sysdiagnose; And there are entries in there for our app in swcutil_show.txt. Snipped below: Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: www.<mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: <mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service: applinks App ID: <my fully qualified app bundle id> App Version: 760.0 App PI: <LSPersistentIdentifier 0x6b8008930> { v = 0, t = 0x8, u = 0x45c, db = DC8D18A2-430D-4AD4-A5BE-B7A003CF9A6F, {length = 8, bytes = 0x5c04000000000000} } Domain: *.<mydomain>.com Patterns: {"/":"/cc/*"}, {"?":{"t":"*"},"/":"/md/"} User Approval: unspecified Site/Fmwk Approval: approved Flags: Last Checked: 2025-04-29 09:10:21 +0000 Next Check: 2025-05-04 08:42:50 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The version numbers match the installed version of my app I've tried running logging and just capturing logs before and after I press the "open in ", but there's nothing suspicious in there. And the kicker - it's only happening on a single device. No other devices are experiencing this.

Come forzare la visualizzazione di un font diverso (es. Helvetica su iOS, Arial su Windows) in un PDF non incorporando i caratteri
Sto cercando di creare un PDF che, a seconda del sistema operativo, utilizzi un font diverso. Visto che mi è capitato di scaricare da Internet un PDF che veniva visualizzato con con Arial su Windows e con Helvetica su iOS/macOS (anche su siti di drive, OneDrive ) vorrei creare un PDF che venga visualizzato con Arial su Windows e con Helvetica su iOS/macOS, sfruttando i meccanismi di fallback dei font di sistema (senza incorporare i font nel PDF). Ho provato a: • Scrivere il documento in Arial da Word su Windows; • Scrivere il documento in Helvetica da Word su Windows; • Disattivare l’incorporamento dei font nel salvataggio PDF su “Word”; Tuttavia, su iOS , in app come Onedrive, il PDF continua a visualizzarsi in Arial C’è un modo per: Evitare che iOS usi Arial se presente? Far sì che venga usato Helvetica come fallback? mi interessa anche capire se si può impedire ad iOS di usare Arial in lettura PDF. Qualcuno ha affrontato un caso simile o conosce un modo affidabile per ottenere questo comportamento cross-platform?

Rosetta 2 - Build 1.0.0.0.1.1744447383
Goal: Manually install an explicit version of Rosetta2 Background: Me and some customers have an old app (intel) which perfectly worked with Rosetta2. In the last week of April most macheines were updated to Mac Os 15.4.1. and the app still starts but certain functionality is bronken. Some fields ind the forms don't write back to the database, some data can't be read from the database. (Most installations will fade out over the next month but it would be great to have the app fully working for data migration.) First try was to step back to 15.4. (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): no change, app still broken Second try back to 15: (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): App still broken (!) This is interesting as the app worked for month using Mac Os 15! Third try: Back to MacOS 14 (Clean Install - Install App - Rosetta installs as expected): App is working like nothing happend. (All attempts on same hardware of course.) Reasoning: Rosetta2 was the only software (besides the app itself) installed after clean MacOS installs. Now, my guess is that there were might be a change in Rosetta2 as the app worked on MacOs 15 up the update 15.4.1. was installed. Checking versions (pkgutil --pkg-info com.apple.pkg.RosettaUpdateAuto): Rosetta version MacOS 14: 1.0.0.0.1.1722778371 Rosetta version on MacOS 15.4.1: 1.0.0.0.1.1744447383 To fully verify the cause it would be great to uninstall Rosetta on MacOS15.4.1 machine and explicit install lower version (1.0.0.0.1.1722778371) which must be available somewhere as MacOS14 still gets this version. I know how to uninstall - is there a possibility to manually install an explicit version of Rosetta2?
