Is there any way to customize the Jamf Pro administration interface with colors, background or logo ? (Except just dark and light mode)When working with 3 different Jamf Pro enviroments back and forth, it is easy to make changes in the wrong environment.

We have a user who has just started and they have a personal iPhone backed up to iCloud. We want them to be able to restore this backup to a new, managed iPhone but it doesn't seem to work.We wipe the Managed iPhone and allow Proximity Setup, the Personal iPhone sees the Managed iPhone and goes through the steps to restore and it appear to be working, however after enrolment through our IdP the Managed iPhone goes to the Home Screen and nothing happens (apart from our required Managed Apps being there).Does anyone have any success doing the above? I'm wondering if it's even possible to do?

I've started looking into the Jamf+Intune Device Compliance, but I'm having a hard time finding what all this will gain for us.  My organization currently does not use Conditional Access in Jamf or Intune.  We might at some point start, but that is a ways down the road at best.  Other than access to those Conditional Access Policies, are there any other benefits to enabling Device Compliance?

Hello everyone, I would like to activate and configure Platform SSO via Jamf Pro for our macOS devices. The aim is for the user to be able to log in directly to the Mac with their Microsoft Entra ID account. Can someone send me a link to some documentation? Or does it not work yet? I would be grateful for any information. Best regards

Hey folks..Does anyone have any experience working with the platform SSO feature of Ventura?  One of our clients would like to use it, as they do not have a budget for Jamf Connect. I'm not really finding much info on how to setup in my Google searches.

I have around 30 MacBook Air computers which were shipped with macOS Big Sur. I was thinking of creating a static computer group and add the serial number for those MacBooks so that I could then add them to a policy which updates the software from macOS Big Sur to macOS Sonoma when the user logs in. Is this possible? The devices I have are PreStage enrolled for ADE. I'm still early in learning more about JAMF so if anyone had some advise or direction on how to go about this that would be greatly appreciated. The use case is that just now if we give one of these to a user it will enrol on Big Sur which is unsupported. Is there a better way? Can we upgrade them to Big Sur then erase the MacBook so it then enrols and installs macOS when next user logs in? As far as I'm led to believe this would install macOS Big Sur again as this is what the device was shipped with. 

Is there an easy way to make the settings for more admin groups? They will have same privileges, but to different sites.We have 37 different groups to same amount of sites. Each groups have to admin one site. We are using SSO for admins, who comes from AD.

We have started using the MDM commands to "DOWNLOAD_AND_INSTALL" Apple Updates with a postpone option.  The end user will get the notification like this   The problem that we are seeing, is that if they click anywhere on the message, other than "options" button (not in this pic) the message just goes away.  Then you have to wait 24 hours (give or take) before it shows up again.I'm not sure if this is something that i have configured incorrectly or just a "bug" from macOS.Has anyone else seen this?  We are on macOS 13.x and Jamf 10.40.1

Hey ya'll, we are about to roll out Jamf Connect to our users and I'm struggling with how to report our progress. Currently, we have a policy for the Jamf Connect app in our self service, and I can look at logs to see who ran the policy. My concern is if these logs get flushed. Is there a place to see my current Jamf Connect license count, and even better to see which devices are using a license? Thanks! 

I'm trying to pair an airtag to an iphone and I get the error message "your device management settings do not support airtag". We have no restriction in JAMF for this. The only similar post I could find "Can't pair airtag on ipad" was caused by "Devices tab in Find My app is disabled" remaining in the device profile. I have searched for this and it is not present on the device so I'm not sure what is going on.

A multi-step process to help Jamf Pro admins zero-in on policy failures Background We recently executed a single-script Jamf Pro policy on All Computers and observed a 99.4 percent success rate. While this could certainly be viewed as an A+ result, what to do about the remaining 0.6 percent? Continue reading …

Hello, We've had content filtering enabled on all of our students iPads. We had a case where explicit content was seen via search on Safari. The interesting thing is that this same configuration profile is pushed to multiple iPads, but its not being applied to all of them. It shows as pushed and active configuration profile on the device, the restriction is visible under Profile > Restrictions.  1. iPad #1 is iPad 5th gen on OS 14.4.2 and the configuration profile works as it should. Searching for the term "Sexy" gives the restriction notice. 2. iPad #2 iPad 9th gen on OS 17.4.1 and the configuration profile seems to be ineffective. Searching for the term "Sexy" shows explicit content.  I've gone through and compared the other configuration profiles to see if there is any discrepancies, to no avail.   What could be causing this issue? Why is the content filtering being applied to one device but not the other? We are dealing with this scen

Hi there, I have a script that runs once on each machine in our macOS fleet. The script essentially creates a launchdaemon that runs a script that kills and restarts jamf binaries on machines once a day to mitigate the jamf checkin issues (no we do not have a force restart schedule). Issue I'm noticing is that some devices (about 50) even though they have the launchdaemon loaded it doesn't seem to be restarting their Jamf binaries. My thinking is it may be the script that is not working as intended. I intend for the restart script to be re-ran everyday on the local machine but some devices have not checked in for weeks now.   #!/bin/sh cat << 'EOF' > /private/var/tmp/JamfRestart.sh #!/bin/sh sudo killall jamf sleep 10 sudo jamf policy EOF chmod 755 /private/var/tmp/JamfRestart.sh chown root:wheel /private/var/tmp/JamfRestart.sh cat << EOF > /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.JamfRestart.plist <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//A

Hi all, I'm changing a configuration profile to exclude the local admin account for the password complexity requirements. I'm wondering what affects this may have on existing local accounts on the MacBook. Will they be forced to change their exisiting password? Will the timer on their password policy restart? I'm kinda nervous to hit the distribute to all right now because I'm not sure what the effect will be.

Hello JAMF Nation, Has anyone been able to successfully create and package with the WFBS Trend client to be pushed out via policy in JAMF every single attempt I have made as resulted in failure or corrupted installations. I have found several posts here, that have helped with potential ideas but unable to get anything going successfully. Keep in mind I am a JAMF NOOB but am learning more and more each day. I have 30 machines that are out in the field and have been tasked to creating packages for: Skype for Business WFBS TrendMicro That are a bit of a challenge any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

We're doing some testing in our QA environment and configured all our Config Profiles to match what is in Prod. We've enrolled 4 Mac's and they show Invalid and the Recovery key is super long. I did try the github reissue filevault key, also escrowbuddy and ran the files and processes command, but neither work. When I run the reissue command and type in password and it's successful and I run a jamf recon, the recovery key validation changes to Valid, but the recovery key is still wrong and when you refresh it, it goes back to Invalid.    

It seems like every time i try to make Custom Settings for a config profile, no matter how I make the plist file (xCode, VSStudio, manual creation, Jamf Pro spits out : JSON format is incorrect. I'm really confused at what I'm doing wrong.It will accept an actual JSON format, but then nothing populates in the form editor or Plist preview panes.What am I doing wrong? How should i go about making custom settings for external apps?Thanks in advance! Here is a sample from my OneDrive config profile<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>AllowTenantList</key> <string>TenantID</string> <key>BlockExternalSync</key> <true/> <key>DisablePersonalSync</key> <true/> <key>DisableTutorial</key> <true/> <key>FilesOnDemandEnabled</key>

I am simply trying to repackage some drag and drop apps as flat packages using Composer. We do this so we can use them in our provisioning workflows via Jamf Pro.  Note: I have tried composer 10.44 to 10.48 and get the same results. Using FileZilla as an example: That is pretty much it. No postinstall, but I am signing with my developer installer ID.   I have tried to notarize and staple the .pkg's, but Apple does not like something in the .app file so I get "Invalid Package".   I have tried all kinds of things to try and clear any security flag, but nothing seems to work.  The only thing that does work is control clicking and selecting Open, then open anyway.   That does not work when attempting to deploy to thousands of computers.  Our help desk will get overwhelmed with calls.  I have tried all of the following to fix the issue via script (kitchen sink from various how to's I found):   # disable gatekeeper su

So way, way outside my comfort zone, but feeling this days the importance of stretching myself I think I've a highly relatable topic for JNUC 2024 pertaining to the experience of being a Macadmin in a very Windows world, and all the trials and tribulations arising therefrom. I've submitted both my proposal and introductory video, and working from my outline following is what I've come up with:Good morning/afternoon! My name is Chad Jones. I’m currently the Jamf/Mac endpoint administrator for the City of Phoenix. This is a role I’ve held for about 3.5 years. A little about me: my professional infotech experience stretches back a quarter century to February, 1999, when I assumed my first desktop support role. Within eighteen months I was promoted, and then again about 2.5 years later. Twelve years of my career was spent directly supporting the needs of our executives and elected officials (Mayor, Council, and City Manager). I routinely received kudos for my technical acumen, ability to e

Perhaps someone has done this before, I didn’t really search around for it before I put this workflow together. As we know, the jamf binary does not use APNs, so we haven’t had a way to “send a push command” to call the jamf binary for things like ‘jamf recon’, ‘jamf policy’, etc.. Until now. Sorta. Here is my workflow for achieving this. Create a LaunchDaemon that watches for a particular Managed Preference (MCX) plist Run a script via the LaunchDaemon that reads the MCX file for the jamf verb (recon, policy, etc) Create a Configuration Profile with the “Custom” payload to push the MCX file Scope the Configuration Profile to a Static Group Add a Mac to the static group to force a call to the jamf binary via MDM/APNs The LaunchDaemon File Name: /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.yourdomain.daemon.mdm_trigger.plist <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/Pr

Looking for some help please as - I am not getting any help with Jamf Support at this moment and the case is at a HIGH level. We are new to Jamf School this year and transfer over from Securely MDM.  The issue is Teachers are not seeing any of the default settings in the JAMF TEACHER APP - Nor are they seeing their classes.  We are a school district made up of 5 buildings - ALL SIS info is imported into ASM from Infinite Campus - Teachers and students are assigned their correct building in ASM and the class right now shows 25 students and an instructor that class. Also, everything looks to be right as the groups and classes are set up correctly in JAMF SCHOOL but when the teacher opens up the JAMF TEACHER APP nothing is showing in their layout.  Here is what i see or I think it is an issue - Organization - Settings - ASM - Sync Settings - there is a box to be checked under that setting called "ALLOW TEACHERS in ASM to use JAMF TEACHER - When I select that - I get an

Since updating some of our iPads to iPadOS 17.4 I've noticed guest sessions on Shared iPads taking nearly a full 3 minutes to login. On iPadOS 17.3.1 and older, guest sessions log in and are good to go in about 15-20 seconds.  Has anyone else observed this behavior?
