App notarization is taking long
Hi, I read that notarization should be fairly quick. I thought that it was stuck, so I ended up sending a few submissions of the same app. I was wondering if you'd able to tell me the status of my latest submission (id: a094f93d-8bb2-47fe-a411-b6e357456ec7). It has been saying "In Progress" for over 3 hours now. If it is held for in-depth review, would you be able to tell me what's the wait period is like? Thanks!

Verify an app before sending to Notary service
Hi, we are sending MacOS apps packaged in a ZIP archive or DMG disk image to the Notary Service. Before we send the app for notarization, we check the code signature via command codesign -vvv --deep --strict /path/to/app_or_bundle The result is positive and it does not provide any gaps. (And yes, we are following the inside out code signing approach, mentioned at Using the codesign Tool's --deep Option Correctly) Unfortunately, the result of the Notary service provided that one file has no signature, which was not detected by the signature verification command. The path of the binary was in <app_name>.app.zip/<app_name>.app/Contents/Resources/inst/<binary> How I can be verify like a the Notary service does it on our side? Best regards, Stefan

Notarized but Gatekeeper fails macOS 15 only?
Okay, I just pushed a release and notarized. Works great on my test laptop (macOS 26.2) and my test desktop (macOS 14.x) But it seems to fail for a friend who's running macOS 15. I've been using the same GitHub actions successfully for months. How can notarization work for macOS 14 and 26, but not for macOS 15? I think everything looks okay as far as the signing? I've checked codesign -dvv Executable=/Applications/Avogadro2.app/Contents/MacOS/Avogadro2 Identifier=cc.avogadro Format=app bundle with Mach-O thin (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20500 size=11607 flags=0x10000(runtime) hashes=352+7 location=embedded Signature size=8986 Authority=Developer ID Application: Geoffrey Hutchison (…..)

"Notarization stuck in 'In Progress' for 15+ hours - submission e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588"
Notarization submission has been stuck in "In Progress" status for over 15 hours with no resolution. Hi there, I am trying to roll out distribution to paid users who are unable to receive anything from me for quite some time now, and I've read that notarization is quick. But I've found myself to be under quite a delay. Wondering if I could please get some help. Submission Details: ID: e3dff14c-16ab-41a7-a81c-0d1774c66588 Submitted: 2026-02-08T16:42:07.377Z File: Resonant-0.1.0-arm64.dmg (~200MB) Status: In Progress (stuck) Evidence: Upload completed successfully within minutes Delay is entirely server-side processing Same app structure notarized successfully on Feb 5 (submission f5f4c241) Multiple other submissions stuck since Feb 5 (see history below) Stuck Submissions (all "In Progress" for days): e3dff14c (Feb 8, 16:42 UTC) - 15+ hours 3e6bdcb5 (Feb 8, 16:11 UTC) - 16+ hours 37fd1b9f (Feb 8, 12:53 UTC) - 20+ hours f21a1d9b (Feb 8, 12:31 UTC) - 20+ hours (different app, Clippa.zip) 417244e8 (Feb 8, 06:18 UTC) - 26+ hours 891f370f (Feb 7, 11:44 UTC) - 2+ days 1debba51 (Feb 7, 05:44 UTC) - 2+ days 6a06b87f (Feb 6, 14:16 UTC) - 3+ days 9867261c (Feb 6, 13:44 UTC) - 3+ days 1a7c3967 (Feb 6, 12:58 UTC) - 3+ days Last Successful Notarization: f5f4c241 (Feb 5, 18:24 UTC) - Accepted in normal timeframe Impact: Unable to distribute production release.

notarytool returns HTTP 500 — even on store-credentials
Hi everyone, For the past three days I've been unable to notarize my app — every attempt fails with an HTTP 500 error from Apple's notarization service. What's unusual is that the error occurs not only during submission, but also when simply validating credentials via store-credentials. Example: $ xcrun notarytool store-credentials "notarytool-password" \ --apple-id <id> --team-id <team> --password <app-specific-password> Validating your credentials... Error: HTTP status code: 500. Internal Server Error Request ID: K6NYCMIFNM66OI2WRG3ORZEDUE.0.0 Please try again at a later time. Since the failure happens at credential validation — before any package is even uploaded — I'm fairly confident this is a server-side issue, not something wrong with my setup or the binary. I've tried across different network connections, same result. Has anyone else been hitting this? Is there a known outage or incident on Apple's notarization infrastructure? Any way to escalate or get a status update beyond checking developer.apple.com/system-status/? Thanks

App Notarization Stuck in "In Process" State – How Long Should It Take?
Hello, I’m currently in the process of app notarization, but my status is stuck in the "In Process" state, and I’m unsure how long this should take. I’d appreciate any advice or insights. Issue Description After submitting my app for notarization, the status has been stuck in "In Process" for an extended period. There seems to be no progress, and it’s taking longer than I expected for the process to complete. The status hasn’t changed, and it’s been 5 days since I submitted the app. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How long does the notarization process usually take? Any advice on how to resolve this or if there’s something I might be missing? Thanks in advance for your help!

Struggling to Notarize Electron macOS App – Stuck for Hours
Hey everyone, I've been trying to notarize my Electron macOS app for the past two days without any success. My longest attempt took nearly 4 hours, and my current attempt has already been running for 2 hours and 26 minutes. From what I can see in the logs, the signing step has completed successfully, and the app is currently in the notarization stage. But it's been stuck there with no real updates or progress indicators. Is this kind of delay normal? Has anyone else experienced such long notarization times? Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Notarization of Electron MacOS App taking too long
I started the notarization process for my electron app (just a browser window loading a URL) yesterday (26/03/2025) at around 05:23 GMT. I noticed in a couple of posts here in the forum that it may sometimes take a day to notarize the first app submitted by a team, but it has been over 30 hours now. Here's the log from xcrun notarytool history. createdDate: 2025-03-26T05:23:11.102Z id: ddcb3fca-4667-4acb-8fd1-3298a7c244cc name: xolock-browser.zip status: In Progress Do help me out here, I have zero idea why this is taking so long. Thanks in advance!
