iTunes connect does not allow to enter multiline description

I've just submitted my first app to the App Store and I have problem with description field in iTunes Connect - it does not allow me to enter multiline value. I've tried everything - copying-pasting from different editors, entering manually, etc.开发者_开发问答

If there is one line, like "Hello world" - it saves successfully. When I've got at least 2 lines of text, lke

"Hello

World"

it just shows me the following error message and does not save:

Description cannot contain control characters (for example, null, new lines, carriage returns, escape, and other invisible characters).

Unbelievably this bug is back!

You can use Google Chrome, it's just broken in Safari.

Don't worry, this just started this morning, and is a bug that Apple has acknowledged. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. There are a lot of very unhappy people, me included, who can't get out important updates.

Posting this as an answer since I can't yet comment.

Not being able to enter multiline descriptions is an existing bug that only seems to occur sporadically. It is currently broken as of 8 hours ago on Chrome 51.0.2704.103 and Safari 9.1.1.

You can work around it by removing newlines, or waiting until Apple fixes the issue.

I'll report back when I see it fixed (I'm expecting the fix to take a day or two).

Edit: As of this morning, submitting to the App Store on Chrome with multiline descriptions is working!
