I'm downloading a fine-tuned model from HuggingFace which is then cached on my Mac when the app first starts. However, I wanted to test adding a progress bar to show the download progress. To test this I need to delete the cached model. From what I've seen online this is cached at /Users/userName/.cache/huggingface/hub However, if I delete the files from here, using Terminal, the app still seems to be able to access the model. Is the model cached somewhere else? On my iPhone it seems deleting the app also deletes the cached model (app data) so that is useful.

Hi Team, I want to perform bluetooth advertising (no need to pair) from a macOS machine even before the user login to the macOS(i.e before user provide password and submit). Is there a way to achieve this?

I have designed a new icon for my app/Tahoe in Icon Composer (launched from within Xcode)but I simply cannot get it to show up. The documentation for Icon Composer spends a lot of time describing how to design the icons but goes distressingly vague/silent on how one might use it. It suggests that I should drag the file to Xcode and it will guide me as to where to put it. The app continues to use the old (pre-Tahoe) icon. I don't get any change of behaviour and I don't know what to name the file. I assume that there are no other settings that I have to change. I can't find anything on the web or in Apple's documentation: maybe I'm missing something obvious! My app is a working NSDocument-based Cocoa project. Any suggestions please. Tahoe 26.0.1, Xcode 26.0.1, Apple M1 Max MBP.

Hi, I've come across this weird issue which I think is probably a bug, but before I file a radar I'll ask here just in case I'm doing something in a weird way. I found that on macOS if I have a Toggle inside a GeometryReader inside a Tab, and I have an onChange handler for some property of the geometry (even if the onChange doesn't do anything) then the second time I switch to that tab, I get a whole lot of 'AttributeGraph: cycle detected through attribute' logs and the app hangs. It doesn't matter whether it's on the first or second tab, but I've put it in the first tab here. This only happens on macOS… at first I thought it also happened on iOS, but it turned out that was a similar symptom caused by an unrelated issue. Here is some code that reproduces the issue: TabView { Tab("tab 1", systemImage: "rainbow") { Toggle("This toggle is fine", isOn: .constant(true)) } Tab("tab 2", systemImage: "checkmark") { GeometryReader { geometry in VStack { //but with this toggle here, combined with the onChange handler, //the second time we switch to this tab we get the hang Toggle("This toggle causes a hang the second time we switch to this tab", isOn: .constant(true)) //if we comment out the toggle and uncomment the text instead, //it's fine. //Text("This text does not cause a hang") }.onChange(of: geometry.size.height) { //even if this is empty, having it here makes //the app hang when switching to this tab for the second time. //and emit 'AttributeGraph: cycle detected through attribute' in the log } } } } .padding() If I remove either the Toggle or the onChange handler, there is no problem. I can put all sorts of other things in the tab, but as soon as I put a toggle there, I get this hang. For now I've worked around it by putting Toggles in a settings sheet rather than directly on the tab, but since there's plenty of space on macOS it would be nice to have them directly on the tab. One thing that's weird is that if I put this same code in the Settings window of an app, it doesn't seem to have the problem — maybe because the tabs are a different style there.

AppleScript for the Music app no longer supports the current track event. Before macOS Tahoe, running the following script in Script Editor would return the current track information: tell application "Music" return name of current track end tell However, when I run this script on a device with macOS 26 Tahoe, I receive this error: "Result: error "Music got an error: Can’t get name of current track." number -1728 from name of current track” I've tested this extensively, and here are my findings: Going to the “songs” tab and playing something from there makes everything work. Playing any song directly will make it work with current track UNLESS this song is NOT in your Music library (either added through Apple Music or uploaded). If you play a song not in your library, current track is not updated even if you clicked on it specifically. Playing an album (in your library obviously) makes all the tracks within it appear in current track until autoplay takes over. Any autoplayed track won’t appear in current track even if in your library (unless: see the last bulletpoint) Music played through the “songs” tab all appear in current track even if autoplay kicks in. I assume this is because this tab is an iTunes legacy (visually and under the hood) and doesn’t use the modern autoplay. This tab also won’t play non-library songs unlike the “albums” tab which seems to use the correct autoplay and suffers the same symptoms as the “recently added”, “home”, “radio”, etc… tabs. Is this a bug, or has Apple simply deprecated this functionality?

There is a serious usability issue with PHPickerViewController in a UIKit app running on macOS 26 via Mac Catalyst when the Mac Catalyst interface is set to “Scaled to Match iPad”. Mouse click and other pointer interactions do not take place in the correct position. This means you have to click in the wrong position to select a photo and to close the picker. This basically makes it unusable. To demonstrate, use Xcode 26 on macOS 26 to create a new iOS app project based on Swift/Storyboard. Then update ViewController.swift with the following code: import UIKit import PhotosUI class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() var cfg = UIButton.Configuration.plain() cfg.title = "Photo Picker" let button = UIButton(configuration: cfg, primaryAction: UIAction(handler: { _ in self.showPicker() })) button.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false view.addSubview(button) NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ button.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerXAnchor), button.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerYAnchor), ]) } private func showPicker() { var config = PHPickerConfiguration() config.selectionLimit = 10 config.selection = .ordered let vc = PHPickerViewController(configuration: config) vc.delegate = self self.present(vc, animated: true) } } extension ViewController: PHPickerViewControllerDelegate { func picker(_ picker: PHPickerViewController, didFinishPicking results: [PHPickerResult]) { print("Picked \(results.count) photos") dismiss(animated: true) } } Then go to the "Supported Destinations" section of the project target. Add a "Mac (Mac Catalyst)" destination. Then under the "Deployment Information" section, make sure the "Mac Catalyst Interface" setting is "Scaled to Match iPad". Then build and run the app on a Mac (using the Mac Catalyst destination) with macOS 26.0.1. Make sure the Mac has a dozen or so pictures in the Photo Library to fully demonstrate the issue. When the app is run, a simple screen appears with one button in the middle. Click the button to bring up the PHPickerViewController. Now try to interact with the picker interface. Note that all pointer interactions are in the wrong place on the screen. This makes it nearly impossible to choose the correct photos and close the picker. Quit the app. Select the project and go to the General tab. In the "Deployment Info" change the “Mac Catalyst Interface” setting to “Optimize for Mac” and run the app again. Now the photo picker works just fine. If you run the app on a Mac running macOS 15 then the photo picker works just fine with either “Mac Catalyst Interface” setting. The problem only happens under macOS 26.0 (I do not have macOS 26.1 beta to test) when the “Mac Catalyst Interface” setting is set to “Scaled to Match iPad”. This is critical for my app. I cannot use “Optimize for Mac”. There are far too many issues with that setting (I use UIStepper and UIPickerView to start). So it is critical to the usability of my app under macOS 26 that this issue be resolved. It is expected that PHPickerViewController responds correctly to pointer events on macOS 26 when running a Mac Catalyst app set to “Scaled to Match iPad”. A version of this has been filed as FB20503207

We are using Apple's PSSO to federate device login to out own IdP. We have developed our own extension app and deployed it using MDM. Things works fine but there are 2 issues that we are trying to get to the root cause - On some devices after restarting we see an error message on the logic screen saying "The registration for this device is invalid and must be repaired" And other error message is "SmartCard configuration is invalid for this account" For the 1st we have figured out that this happens when the registration doesn't happen fully and the key is not tied to the user so when the disk needs to be decrypted at the FileVault screen the issue is raised. For the "SmartCard configuration is invalid for this account" issue also one aspect is invalid registration but there has been other instances as well where the devices were registered completely but then also the the above error was raised. We verified the registration being completed by checking if the SmartCard is visible in the System Report containing the key. Has anyone seen the above issues and any possible resolution around it?

I'm trying to create a UI with two button bars (top and bottom) inside the detail view of a NavigationSplitView, instead of using the built-in .toolbar() modifier. I'm using .ignoresSafeArea(.container, edges: .vertical) so the detail view can reach into that area. However, in macOS and iOS 26 the top button is not clickable/tappable because it is behind an invisible View created by the non-existent toolbar. Interestingly enough, if I apply .buttonStyle(.borderless) to the top button it becomes clickable (in macOS). On the iPad the behavior is different depending on the iPad OS version. In iOS 26, the button is tappable only by the bottom half. In iOS 18 the button is always tappable. Here's the code for the screenshot: import SwiftUI struct ContentView2: View { @State private var sidebarSelection: String? @State private var contentSelection: String? @State private var showContentColumn = true @State private var showBars = true var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { // Sidebar List(selection: $sidebarSelection) { Text("Show Content Column").tag("three") Text("Hide Content Column").tag("two") } .navigationTitle("Sidebar") } detail: { VStack(spacing: 0) { if showBars { HStack { Button("Click Me") { withAnimation { showBars.toggle() } } .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent) } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, minHeight: 50, idealHeight: 50, maxHeight: 50) .background(.gray) .transition(.move(edge: .top)) } ZStack { Text("Detail View") } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity, alignment: .init(horizontal: .center, vertical: .center)) .border(.red) .onTapGesture(count: 2) { withAnimation { showBars.toggle() } } if showBars { HStack { Button("Click Me") { withAnimation { showBars.toggle() } } } .frame(maxWidth: .infinity, minHeight: 50, idealHeight: 50, maxHeight: 50) .background(.gray) .transition(.move(edge: .bottom)) } } .ignoresSafeArea(.container, edges: .vertical) .toolbarVisibility(.hidden) } .toolbarVisibility(.visible) } } I'm confused by this very inconsistent behavior and I haven't been able to find a way to get this UI to work across both platforms. Does anybody know how to remove the transparent toolbar that is preventing clicks/taps in this top section of the view? I'm hoping there's an idiomatic, native SwiftUI way to do it.

I'm trying to setup a macOS 26 build environment in a VM (using UTM and the virtualization framework Apple provides). I have Xcode 26 installed and have logged into my Apple ID and verified that the team and other configuration looks fine in Xcode settings. When trying to build the macOS app, I see errors saying the VM's device ID has not been registered. I have confirmed that the device ID is registered both in the Provisioning portal AND the downloaded .provisionprofiles (in Library > Developer > Xcode > UserData). This problem appears on multiple targets (e.g. the main app and extensions). If I try to manually provision the app, using the Provisioning portal, I can build the product, but it will not launch because of Gatekeeper issues. Finally, signing to run locally doesn't work either. As the app launches, frameworks refuse to load because Team IDs don't match. With ad hoc provisioning, there are no Team IDs. I've come to the conclusion that this just isn't possible. Which is a shame because I need to support products with a build environment on macOS 15 and cannot move over to macOS 26 yet. I suspect many developers outside of Apple are in a similar position.

Our app is unable to write to its own sandbox container on macOS when run via “My Mac (Designed for iPad)”. This is not an issue when the app runs on iPhone or on iPad. This seems to affect all attempts to write to the file system including: UserDefaults Core Data (SQLite) Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics, Sessions) File creation (PDFs, temp files, etc.) We're seeing the following errors in the console: Operation not permitted / NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513: Permissions error when writing to disk. CFPrefsPlistSource: Path not accessible: Failure to write to UserDefaults. Cannot synchronize user defaults to disk: UserDefaults write blocked. CoreData: No permissions to create file: Core Data SQLite store can't be created. Firebase: Failed to open database: Firebase can't initialize local storage. CGDataConsumerCreateWithFilename: failed to open ... for writing: PDF generation fails due to temp directory access issues. Created a test project to try and reproduce the issue but unable to do so in the test project, even when setting all the build settings the same as the project having issues.

I have an swift command line tool that changes proxy settings in system preferences via SystemConfiguration framework, does some stuff, and in the end reverts proxy settings back to original. Here is simplified code: var authorization: AuthorizationRef? let status = AuthorizationCreate(nil, nil, [], &authorization) let prefs = SCPreferencesCreateWithAuthorization(nil, "myapp" as CFString, nil, authorization) // change proxy setttings // do some stuff let prefs2 = SCPreferencesCreateWithAuthorization(nil, "myapp" as CFString, nil, authorization) // change proxy settings back to original When I try to change settings for the first time, the system dialog appears requesting permission to change network settings. If I try to change settings again within а short period of time, the dialog does not appear again. However, if it takes more than several minutes after first change, the dialog does appear again. Is there a way to create authorization, so that the dialog appears only once per app launch, no matter how much time passed since the first dialog?

Hello, Back in January 2024, I filed a bug report regarding a cache being kept by the macOS Wallpaper Agent. This cache contains every image ever set as a users wallpaper, and at the time the issue was reported, it never cleared, leaving hundreds of gigabytes wasted on users disks in some cases. FB13536275 This issue was ultimately fixed in macOS 15.1 beta 6, and remained fixed for the duration of macOS 15. The fix was excellent - the cache was reduced to storing just 2-3 days worth of images. Sadly, we've discovered that this issue is back in macOS Tahoe. The cache has moved locations, and once again is not clearing. We have filed this bug again, less than a year after it was first fixed: FB20636593 We develop an app called 24 Hour Wallpaper that keeps the wallpaper in sync with the time of day. This necessitates that the app regularly changes the wallpaper, which sadly now results in an infinitely growing and useless cache of BMP files generated by the system. As we waited 10 months for this to get fixed the first time, we expect to wait at least that long to get it fixed again, and have no confidence that it will stay fixed because the last fix lasted less than a year. This leaves us in a bad position, as people can't use our app without the cache growing arbitrarily and ultimately completely filling their disk. We've already had customers call Apple to complain about this, and the good news is that the support agents understand that this is a problem with macOS, not with our app. What we've decided to do is add a feature to the app that monitors the size of this cache and periodically deletes it. We're required to get the users permission the first time to do this, but after that the permission is cached, so the app can keep the cache folder clean regardless of if macOS is doing it's job or not. We haven't seen any side effects or problems as a result of doing this. We've seen other apps like CleanMyMac do this without any problems. We're wondering if there is anything we should be aware of regarding this caches behavior before releasing this flushing feature. Thanks for your time, -josh

Hi, I have a macOS app distributed through the App Store that uses an app group to share data with app extensions. The group identifier has the form: .group. In Xcode 26 I am now asked to convert the project to profile based app groups (like on iOS). My question is: Can I convert the project to profile based app groups and will the existing app group (which is prefixed with the Team ID) continue to work (and will exiting users still be able to access their data). If yes, should I add the app group with or without the Team ID prefix to the profile.

After the macOS Sequoia update, my app seems to have an issue with Bluetooth communication between macOS and iOS that uses CoreBluetooth for Central-Peripheral communication. Setup: The iPhone (in my case: iPhone 14 Pro with iOS 18.0 (22A3354)) acts as the Central, and the Mac (in my case: 14" MacBook Pro 2023 with macOS 15.0 (24A335)) as the Peripheral. I’ve implemented a mechanism where the Central (iPhone) sends a message to the Peripheral (Mac) every 15 seconds to keep the connection alive (Because it needs to wait for notify characteristic updates). I never noticed this kind of issue before, but with macOS Sequoia I get it permanently. Issue: The connection drops unexpectedly after a period of time (sometimes 20 seconds, sometimes a few minutes) with CBErrorDomain - code 6: The connection has timed out unexpectedly. Sample Code: Peripheral (Mac): ContentView (Peripheral).txt ContentViewModel (Peripheral).txt Central (iPhone): ContentView (Central).txt ContentViewModel (Central).txt Reproduce: I attached sample code including the Central-Sample (for iPhone) and Peripheral-Sample (for Mac). Just run the Peripheral-Sample (after granting Bluetooth permissions). Then run the Central-Sample and select the Mac device in the list After selecting it should connect, discover the service & characteristic and should start writing messages to it. After some time the func centralManager(_ central: CBCentralManager, didDisconnectPeripheral peripheral: CBPeripheral, error: (any Error)?) {should get called with timed out unexpectedly error. Could anyone please look into this issue and advise on whether there’s a known bug or any workaround? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as this impacts the stability of Bluetooth communication between the devices. Thanks in advance. Logs: I also ran the console.app during this issue which got these errors (if this is helpful): console_logs.txt

Hello, I’ve run into some strange behavior with the macOS System Extension using a Packet Tunnel. The issue showed up after the device went to sleep while the VPN was running. When I woke the computer, the VPN tried to reconnect but never succeeded — it just stayed stuck in the “connecting” state. I was able to turn the VPN off, but every attempt to turn it back on failed and got stuck at “connecting” again. Even removing the VPN configuration from Settings didn’t help. The only thing that worked was disabling the system extension completely. While checking the logs, I noticed thousands of identical log messages appearing within just a few seconds: nesessionmanager(562) deny(1) system-fsctl (_IO "h" 47) 17:11:52.481498+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5454 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481568+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5454 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481580+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5454 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481587+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5454 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481646+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481664+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481671+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481676+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481682+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481687+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: got On Demand start message from pid 5446 com.apple.networkextension After the burst of these repeated messages, I started seeing logs like the following: 17:11:52.481759+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481790+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481949+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481966+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481986+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.481992+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482003+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482011+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482022+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482028+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482039+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Spotify Helper[69038] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482049+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Spotify Helper[69038]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482060+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from Slack Helper[84828] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482069+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from Slack Helper[84828]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482079+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Received a start command from sharingd[764] com.apple.networkextension 17:11:52.482086+0200 NESMVPNSession[Primary Tunnel:Secure DNS: Skip a start command from sharingd[764]: session in state connecting com.apple.networkextension It is clear that the connection is in a loop of submitting request to start and then failing.

Hello, On macOS 26 (Tahoe), when building a OSX app that includes GameKit code, calling GKLocalPlayer.local.authenticateHandler shows the "Sign In to Game Center" alert (e.g. didShowFullscreenSignIn) — even if the app does not have the Game Center capability enabled or any related entitlement (com.apple.developer.game-center). This alert only appears when the user is not signed in to Game Center in system settings. However, when testing the same code path on iOS app built with macOS 26 (Tahoe), the alert does not appear unless the proper capability and entitlement are included. This behavior is different from macOS 15 (Sequoia) + Xcode 15.x. Prior to the update, Game Center features did not work at all even with the OSX app without Capability and Entitlements. Steps to Reproduce Create a new OSX app target (App Sandbox enabled, no Game Center capability). Add minimal GameKit code: GKLocalPlayer.local.authenticateHandler = { _, _, _ in } Build OSX app and run on macOS 26 (Tahoe). Ensure Game Center is signed out in System Settings. Observe: “Sign In to Game Center” alert appears automatically. Expected Behavior When Game Center capability and entitlement are not present, authenticateHandler should fail silently, and no signIn alert should appear. Actual Behavior On OSX app, the Game Center signIn UI appears even without any Game Center capability or entitlement. On iOS app, this alert does not appear. *Build Configuration: built with the same condition. (macOS 26 + Xcode 26) Question Could you please confirm whether this behavior is an intentional change in macOS 26 or a bug only for OSX apps in the GameKit authentication flow? Thank you.

Hello, I am trying to capture screen recording ( output.mp4 ) using ScreenCaptureKit and also the mouse positions during the recording ( mouse.json ). The recording and the mouse positions ( tracked based on mouse movements events only ) needs to be perfectly synced in order to add effects in post editing. I started off by using the await stream?.startCapture() and after that starting my mouse tracking function :- try await captureEngine.startCapture(configuration: config, filter: filter, recordingOutput: recordingOutput) let captureStartTime = Date() mouseTracker?.startTracking(with: captureStartTime) But every time I tested, there is a clear inconsistency in sync between the recorded video and the recorded mouse positions. The only thing I want is to know when exactly does the recording "actually" started so that I can start the mouse capture at that same time, and thus I tried using the Delegates, but being able to set them up perfectly. import Foundation import AVFAudio import ScreenCaptureKit import OSLog import Combine class CaptureEngine: NSObject, @unchecked Sendable { private let logger = Logger() private(set) var stream: SCStream? private var streamOutput: CaptureEngineStreamOutput? private var recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput? private let videoSampleBufferQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.francestudio.phia.VideoSampleBufferQueue") private let audioSampleBufferQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.francestudio.phia.AudioSampleBufferQueue") private let micSampleBufferQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.francestudio.phia.MicSampleBufferQueue") func startCapture(configuration: SCStreamConfiguration, filter: SCContentFilter, recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput) async throws { // Create the stream output delegate. let streamOutput = CaptureEngineStreamOutput() self.streamOutput = streamOutput do { stream = SCStream(filter: filter, configuration: configuration, delegate: streamOutput) try stream?.addStreamOutput(streamOutput, type: .screen, sampleHandlerQueue: videoSampleBufferQueue) try stream?.addStreamOutput(streamOutput, type: .audio, sampleHandlerQueue: audioSampleBufferQueue) try stream?.addStreamOutput(streamOutput, type: .microphone, sampleHandlerQueue: micSampleBufferQueue) self.recordingOutput = recordingOutput recordingOutput.delegate = self try stream?.addRecordingOutput(recordingOutput) try await stream?.startCapture() } catch { logger.error("Failed to start capture: \(error.localizedDescription)") throw error } } func stopCapture() async throws { do { try await stream?.stopCapture() } catch { logger.error("Failed to stop capture: \(error.localizedDescription)") throw error } } func update(configuration: SCStreamConfiguration, filter: SCContentFilter) async { do { try await stream?.updateConfiguration(configuration) try await stream?.updateContentFilter(filter) } catch { logger.error("Failed to update the stream session: \(String(describing: error))") } } func stopRecordingOutputForStream(_ recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput) throws { try self.stream?.removeRecordingOutput(recordingOutput) } } // MARK: - SCRecordingOutputDelegate extension CaptureEngine: SCRecordingOutputDelegate { func recordingOutputDidStartRecording(_ recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput) { let startTime = Date() logger.info("Recording output did start recording \(startTime)") } func recordingOutputDidFinishRecording(_ recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput) { logger.info("Recording output did finish recording") } func recordingOutput(_ recordingOutput: SCRecordingOutput, didFailWithError error: any Error) { logger.error("Recording output failed with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } private class CaptureEngineStreamOutput: NSObject, SCStreamOutput, SCStreamDelegate { private let logger = Logger() override init() { super.init() } func stream(_ stream: SCStream, didOutputSampleBuffer sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer, of outputType: SCStreamOutputType) { guard sampleBuffer.isValid else { return } switch outputType { case .screen: break case .audio: break case .microphone: break @unknown default: logger.error("Encountered unknown stream output type:") } } func stream(_ stream: SCStream, didStopWithError error: Error) { logger.error("Stream stopped with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } I am getting error Value of type 'SCRecordingOutput' has no member 'delegate' Even though I am targeting macOs 15+ ( macOs 26 actually ) and macOs only. What is the best way to achieving the desired result? Is there any other / better way to do it?

I am currently developing a macOS app that can show system HUDs in the Notch Till Sequoia I used to kill the OSDUIHelper process (which displays the default macOS Volume and Brightness control HUDs) - and replaced it with my app's HUDs But, it is not working on macOS Tahoe anymore as the OSDUIHelper process is no longer there due to the UI changes Has the process been renamed - or is there any other way to kill the process?

It appears that cdn-apple-cloudkit.apple.com might be required during the stapler validation process, but the DNS for this domain is not resolving. Could you please confirm whether this CDN endpoint is required for stapling, and if there is currently an outage or configuration issue with cdn-apple-cloudkit.apple.com?

I admit I am doing something unusual, and I would not be surprised if it didn't work. I am surprised, however, because after performing the equivalent operations on four bundles, all of the bundles work fine on macOS 15.6.1, but only two of them work on macOS 26.1 (beta 2). I don't know what causes the different outcomes. What I am trying to do is get Java to pass the macOS 26 AppKit UI SDK linkage checking without having to rebuild the JDK using Xcode 26. Rebuilding works for the latest SDK, but it is very inconvenient and may not work for older JDKs. It usually takes a while before the JDK build team successfully transitions to a new Xcode release. My approach is to use vtool to update the sdk version in the LC_BUILD_VERSION load command of $JAVA_HOME/bin/java, which is the launching executable for the JDK. I performed this operation on four JDKs: 25, 21, 17, and 11. (I ran vtool on macOS 15.) It was completely successful on JDK 25 and 21. The JDK launches correctly on macOS 15 and macOS 26. On macOS 26, AppKit uses the new UI, which is the desired outcome. The JDK runs despite that fact that I signed the modified $JAVA_HOME/bin/java with my developer ID, which is inconsistent with the JDK bundle signature. (Redoing the bundle signing is part of the JDK build process; if that were necessary, I would stick with rebuilding the JDK.) The operation was not successful on JDK 17 and 11. I noticed two problems, which are not obviously related. When vtool created the new version of the java program, it lost the tool definition. $ vtool -show-build-version java java: Load command 10 cmd LC_BUILD_VERSION cmdsize 32 platform MACOS minos 11.0 sdk 11.1 ntools 1 tool LD version 609.8 $ vtool -set-build-version 1 10.0 26.0 -output a.out java /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/vtool warning: code signature will be invalid for a.out $ vtool -show-build-version a.out a.out: Load command 22 cmd LC_BUILD_VERSION cmdsize 24 platform MACOS minos 10.0 sdk 26.0 ntools 0 Adding back the tool definition didn't seem to matter. When I try to run the revised executable (in the context of the JDK bundle), it works on macOS 15, but on macOS 26, it is rejected as damaged. If I run the revised executable outside the JDK bundle, it runs (but fails because it can't find the rest of the JDK, which is expected). In all cases, GateKeeper rejects the revised executable because it has not been notarized, but that doesn't seem to stop the program from executing.
