Hi ~ May I know how long did you get your VisionOS developer kit? Thanks

I’m facing an issue when trying to renew my Apple Developer Program membershi Whenever I try to complete the payment ( "We are unable to complete your order – Duplicate order." My previous subscription has already expired, and all my apps are now unavailable on the App Store. This is affecting my users and I’m unable to proceed with payment. Things I’ve tr Logging out and back in Using different browsers (Chrome, Safari, Incognito) Trying from different devices Waiting 24+ hours before r Still getting the s Has anyone faced a similar issue? Is Any Thanks in advance 🙏

we have created an apple developer account on 30th April'2025 but still now it shows your application is in review

See title. I'm logged into the correct account, developer mode is correctly enabled, and the associated Apple ID is the same as my developer account. Has anyone else encountered this issue? I only see the public betas that are available.

I'm currently unable to create new identifiers in the Apple Developer portal at this URL: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/account/resources/identifiers/list The “+” button that should appear to create a new identifier is missing entirely from the page. What’s odd is that another team member (with the same access level and role under the same team) can see and use the button without any issues. So this doesn't appear to be a permissions-related problem. I’ve already tried: Logging out and back in Clearing browser cache Using different browsers (Safari, Chrome) Using Incognito/Private mode Still no luck. Has anyone encountered this before or knows how to resolve it? Thanks in advance.

I selected "Individual / Sole Proprietor" during enrollment, but I’m being redirected to an organization agreement with the message: “Your enrollment could not be completed at this time.” Why is this happening, and how can I restart enrollment properly as an individual?

Hi everyone, My Apple Developer Program subscription was supposed to renew last month, but the payment failed. Surprisingly, the subscription didn’t expire right away, I got an extra month. I’ve now tried updating the payment method using multiple credit/debit cards (including my own and my dad’s), all of which are working perfectly elsewhere but the payment continues to fail. In the Developer app on macOS, I don’t see any option to manually renew the subscription (see attached screenshot). I also noticed that the street address on my developer account doesn’t match the billing address of the card I’m using. Could this be the cause of the issue? If automatic renewal fails, is there a manual payment method available? I’ve already contacted Apple Support, but the solutions they suggested haven’t worked. With my subscription now set to expire in just 3 days, I’m running out of time and options. If there's any way to manually pay or resolve this, I would really appreciate it. I’m in a desperate situation and need to renew to keep my app updates live. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I am trying to implement the apple pay process pay backend service, I have checked everything and somehow it fails.

Our company is working on Smartphone integration - CarPlay, because of that we need to access MFi for some certification. I went through the enrollment, but the payment gets stuck after confirmation and after some minutes it tells me it takes very long time to proceed. How can I enroll for MFi?

Hello Elf Team, I sent the game a day ago and reached out for a quick review to meet my company's event deadline, but I am still waiting for the review to begin. I contacted via the contact form but have not received any response. Is there anyone from the forum who can help expedite this or provide advice on how to proceed? Thank you!

I made a developer account. I uploaded a photo id, it notified me that it will take 2 business days to get verified, but it has been already 2 weeks. What to do?

I’m in crisis mode and desperately need advice. Launching in 10 days and just hit a major roadblock. Background: Set up developer account under a business name only because we needed the D-U-N-S number when starting development Have a working app with Family Controls already configured on the main identifier Yesterday my developer discovered we need Family Controls on 3 additional identifiers for launch a week ago (terrible timing) I submitted a business name change request thinking it was good housekeeping The Crisis: Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles portal is completely locked during business name change processing Can’t add Family Controls to the 3 identifiers we need for launch Business name change typically takes 2-4 weeks Launch is in 10 days What I’ve Done: Contacted Apple Developer Support explaining the urgency Case ID: 102633553000 for the name change request Desperate Questions: Has ANYONE successfully cancelled a business name change mid-process for urgent app needs? Any emergency escalation paths at Apple for launch-blocking issues? Would creating a new developer account be faster? (Though that seems nuclear) Any other workarounds I’m not thinking of? The business name change was purely administrative - nothing structural changes. But these identifier updates are absolutely critical for launch functionality and we didn’t realize they were needed until trying to launch into testflight. This is our first time so learning a lot the hard way 🫠. Thanks in advance for any help!

We are registering as an Apple developer, but the entity type selection is incorrect. How can we switch from personal type to organizational type? We haven't paid yet

I'm not sure how to proceed. I paid for Apple Develoepr Program but not seeing it applied to my account and I still see "Your Apple Developer Program membership has expired.'

We are a group of 10 friends using the same device and Apple ID, but each of us has a different account within the same app. We want to purchase the same auto-renewable monthly subscription plan, each using our own app credentials. The issue: after the first person subscribes, the next user (with a different in-app account) is unable to buy the same plan—it shows "already subscribed" and only allows access after the next billing cycle. We don’t mind the auto-renewal being charged each month by a different person. We just want each app account to have access to the same package independently, for 1 month each. How can we achieve this without changing the Apple ID or device?

Good day) I am developing an application for generating PKPASS in Java. PKPASS itself is generated and installed on the device and updated. But I encountered a problem. When sending information about the update to the APNs service, PKPASS is updated, but the push notification is not shown on the device. On the device, all tooltypes are set to receive the update. As well as the basic settings: We go to the APNs service using = JWT token. "apns-push-type"= "alert" "apns-topic" = PassTypeIdentifier payload = {} I would also like to add that we send push notifications to the production environment. P. S. Six months ago, push notifications came

Info.plist contained no UIScene configuration dictionary (looking for configuration named "Default Configuration") {"msg":"Usage of CMMovementDisorderManager requires a special entitlement.

Added also everything to Entitlements File to watch. It crashes on private let manager = CMMovementDisorderManager()

Hello Apple Support team, I hope You are doing well this is Muhammad Musaab and i am currently applying for the apple developer program i have successfully completed my apple profile and when i logged in to my developer app on macbook and also on my iphone the enrollment button gets grayed out and unclickable, please i do not want to sign up on web page i am asking help regarding the grayed out button i am getting on apple developer app. Kindly resolve this issue as soon so that i could provide my unique games and apps to apple users. Thanks!

In the morning I enrolled in developer program and apple took my money from card and told me it is "being processed". But in the main page it says Purchase your membership. continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now purchase may take up to 48 hours to process. So I clicked again and purchased again. Still I got the same email and checked it says " being processed" but money taken twice!!! Why are you giving me same option if it is processed!! Very bad design!!! Also it is still not activated
