Apple says it will permanently close the Apple Support Community on November 20, 2026, and the site has already switched to read-only mode. Users can still browse and search existing discussions, but they can no longer submit new questions or replies, as 9to5Mac reported.
A notice posted on the forum directs users to Apple’s official support site for help with its products. Apple has not clarified whether existing discussions will remain accessible after the closure date.
The forum’s roots date to 1998, when Apple launched Apple Tech Exchange. It was renamed Apple Discussions in 2000 and relaunched as Apple Support Communities in 2011, before adopting the Apple Support Community name in 2022, according to 9to5Mac’s report.
