I had a few devices upgrade to iOS 26 and the homescreen layout is not working….has anyone ran into an issue with this? 

Hi So i’m working in school where we are setting up Apple Tvs we  wanted make slideshow, although github is a good shout it is too public to use, is there any private websites that follow GDPR that could be a good recommendation? I was thinking about sharepoint, but not sure if that would work

I know JNUC 2025 in Denver isn’t even out of the gates yet but I enjoy speculating about future things.  Many people seemed to think it was Denver before it was officially announced.  It seems JAMF likes state capitols so far.  My wife is even interested too since she normally pops along with me.  The top 5 most populated state capitols are:Phoenix, AZ Austin, TX (JNUC 2023) Columbus, OH Indianapolis, IN Denver, CO (JNUC 2025)I have no knowledge of where, I just enjoy speculating.  My wife hopes it will be Boston.  I’d hope for Salt Lake City personally.  My bet is on Indianapolis though.  Just a guess though.Any guesses, insights or desires for a future JNUC (next year or beyond)?

If I turn off our current Cloud Identity Provider configuration with Google, will that remove the existing attributes from users’ User and Location fields in their profiles? My understanding is that it won’t, which would be a good thing in my case. I’m transitioning to Okta LDAP and want to make sure the current attributes remain, since I have smart groups based on department fields.

I have a custom script that I use to upload an ipa file to an in-house Jamf Pro mobile device app. I am using the endpoint: {URL}/JSSResource/fileuploads/mobiledeviceapplicationsipa/id/{app_id}?FORCE_IPA_UPLOAD=trueThe file does get added to the app in Jamf correctly, however the upload will stop at 99.9% or 100% and just hang until my timeout limit has been reached. So the script throws a timeout error. I have a check for a timeout and then check to see if the file exists in Jamf after, but this feels like a weird workaround. Am I doing something wrong? Why is Jamf not responding with a success 201 after my POST?

Does anyone have any SwiftDialog progress bar .sh examples they’re using during PreStage enrollment to enhance the end-user experience? I’m working on improving our setup workflow and would love to see how others have implemented theirs.

We have not transitioned to Jamf Self Service+ and Jamf Connect 3.x due to concerns about potential confusion among employees and the need to train them on resetting passwords and utilizing the new Self Service+. I perceive Self Service+ as a separate application that is not seamlessly integrated into Jamf. Additionally, our current Self Service is customized with our logo, which the new version does not support, which I guess is a minor inconvenience. Since Self Service is placed in the Dock during enrollment, switching to the new version would require reconfiguration using DockUtil. I am cautious about adopting it and would like to see if Jamf will replace the existing Self Service. Furthermore, Jamf Connect 3.x removes the capability to sync or change passwords via Intune, necessitating the installation of Self Service+ for this functionality. I am curious to know how many others are postponing this transition. Ideally, Jamf would update the existing Self Service to the + version. H

Hello Nation, got a request to install the Cyberark Chrome extension. no problem there. Request was made to per-configure portal URL. Cyberark gave very vague instructions on how to create this. Asking if any one has already deployed this. I am assuming it would be additional keys inside of the  extensionforceintsall  settings but have no idea and have not been able to track at least something similar down. already had the team open a ticket with Cyberark to at least send a vanilla profile. thans in advance for any assitance

My organization uses Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset for our users to sign in with their SSO account with Microsoft Entra ID. The user will sign in with Jamf Setup at the start of their shift and then sign out at the end.   However, Jamf Reset frequently does not fully sign the user out of their SSO account, leading to the next users unable to log in.   I have found that a power cycle and attempt to sign out using Jamf Reset usually fixes this problem.   From what I can tell from comparing our Jamf Reset App configuration and "Managed App Configuration for Jamf Reset" documentation on learn.jamf.com, we have the standard configuration set up.   Has anyone else ran into issues with Jamf Reset "hanging up"?

Has anyone had any luck in blocking the Games app? The only thing that appears under “Restrictions>Apps” is Game Center and that does not block the new app. 

Tahoe now wants to put three default widgets on the desktop in the upper left corner (Calendar, Weather, Photos)  I don’t mind the weather and calendar widgets but the Photos widget will confuse people who are using this machine in a Lab setting. How can I control, remove or disallow them during or after setup?I looked through all the Configuration Profile settings but there doesn’t seem to be any way in the Jamf GUI to address this. Will it require a custom Configuration profile?Thanks!

I’ve federated our domain.  We never had any conflicts.  I have to assist a client with capturing their domain - but we already know they’ll have conflicts.I know the end user will get an email and have to create a personal account, but what happens on the device? A person creates a new iCloud account - does the login on the device auto-switch to the new account?I’d take an educated guess Apple does their stuff to make sure purchased content moves to that account.Do they have to sign out to get to the managed ORG ID?Question is - does the device automagically become the managed ID - or do they have to sign out / into the captured ORG ID?If it’s the latter, does their purchased content get purged from the device? Or is it more of a BYOD situation where they’re logged into both?

Hello everyone, After spending hours digging through forums trying to find a reliable way to fully automate the AVID NEXIS Client Manager installation on macOS, I’m sharing this step-by-step guide to save others the same trouble I went through.Unfortunately, Avid doesn't provide much help on this topic, so I hope this helps streamline your deployment.I’m aware that this isn’t the most secure or ideal approach, and there’s definitely room for improvement — but it works for us.If you have suggestions or improvements, feel free to share!If this can help new Mac admins or anyone else, all the better! Useful resources I consulted: Managing Legacy Kernel Extensions in macOS Using Jamf Pro - Technical Articles | Jamf System extensions in macOS - Apple Support (CA) System Security Prerequisites Before any installation, it's critical to adjust macOS security settings to allow the required kernel extensions for AVID NEXIS to load properly.

At the begining of the year we set up a Jamf Migration app with and .mobileconfig profile to assit users in moving thier company managed machine from Mosyle to Jamf. I recenlty updated the .mobileconfig profile to extend the removal date however Im experiancing an new issue that  once the profile is installed and we try runninf the migration app I get a new error stating the jamf Migrate could not enroll in the destination JAMF Pro Server. What would be the next steps to resovle this? 

We have some entra integration in our environment. We use connect, have enroll enrollment customizations, etc.  The issue I’m having is while I can see AD groups, it seems jamf can’t see memberships (I’m assuming). When I attempt to scope a policy/config profile to an AD group (scope to everyone, limit to the AD group), it still goes to everyone with no limiting. I’m sure there’s a setting I’m missing. Has anyone seen this?

Hi,We're starting to see a number of cases being raised internally about some of our Macs (all on macOS 15.1.1) having intermittent login issues.  Our devices are bound to AD and our users have been logging on fine for some time but now we're starting to get issues.  Sometimes the logins are fine.  Sometimes they take ~10 mins and sometimes they appear to stall completely (waited over 2.5 hours in testing) even on the same device.  The login screen appears to freeze (the time doesn't change) and you eventually get the spinning beachball.  SSH is still working and you can run a "jamf policy" successfully.  "Screen Sharing" reports that the user who has attempted to log into the device is the active user when you connect.Can anyone share some tips as to how we would start to investigate this sort of issue let alone resolve it???ThanksStuart

Hello there, first time Poster here. I'm pretty new to the Administration of MacOS environments. My Company just started working with JamF, and I'm trying to figure out how to best handle OS Updates for the Users.I mainly found out about the options to use Nudge in combination with erase-install to have nice notifications and a solid way to force updates, or use SUPERMAN which seem to be able to do both, notifications and forcing updates. I have already tried around with Nudge for a bit and think its pretty cool. Im hoping someone can explain in a bit more detail what SUPERMAN does differently/better or worse than Nudge+erase-install and why they are using either of the solutions or even if they have a totally different approach! 

Our school district would like to defer the upcoming macOS 26 upgrade (scheduled for release on September 15) but still allow security updates for macOS Sequoia.What is the best way to configure this in Jamf Pro so that the major OS upgrade is blocked, while security updates and minor patches for Sequoia remain available? Thanks  

Hi everyone,we are currently trying to figure out how to deploy apps which are only available in specific regions, e.g. Shopee (which is only available in some Asian regions if I’m not mistaken). In ABM, we can only find apps from our origin region.I cannot really find any resources on this topic. Does anyone have an idea on how to achieve this?

As part of my rollout of platform single sign-on I created a script that checks the user’s password expiration date so that we can alert the user that their password is expiring within 14 days. I want the script to run once a day. I created a launch daemon to run the script. The script and the launch daemon get installed on every Mac with PSSO setup. If the user’s password is expiring on a date that is more than 14 days away the script slimply logs the expiration date and how many days are remaining. The problem I have run into is that if the Mac is not currently connected to the internet when the launch daemon runs the script, there will be no results from the password expiration check with Microsoft. How can I get the launch daemon to run the script again? Currently I have the launch daemon configured to run at a specific hour and minute daily. The deployment script that writtes the password expiration check script and the lauch daemon takes note of the current hour and minute and us

Looking for some guidance with Jamf Pro - PreStage Enrollment and FileVault.The issue: In PreStage, we pre-create and hide a local admin account. During setup, the workflow prompts for end-user account creation. FileVault is enabled immediately after the user account is created and the user logs in for the first time. As a result, only the end user is added to FileVault , the local admin account is left out of the FileVault enabled users list. I haven’t found a way to ensure the local admin is automatically included in FV2 during enrollment.Should this be configured differently in PreStage, or would scripting the local admin addition after FileVault is enabled be the right approach?

I remember before the renovation of jamf dashboard there was an option to clear all users on shared ipad. Now with the new dashboard I didn't find it, can someone tell me where was that option? Thank you,

Hi, Tried to enable memcached across 3 servers. config as per documentation. memcached is communicating , however, i'm getting this error on the non primary servers  Type Status Report https 404 - not found   Description The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.

Right. Where do I begin.... I am going to try and be as constructive as possible rather than just complaining. We've been running Jamf Pro (currently 11.4.2) for almost two years. Since day one we had issues with out of the box or EACAS Macs fully completing enrolment. The usual state they would end up in was for the profiles to install fine, VPP apps to install, etc, but for no policies to run nor for Self Service to install. When I looked on Jamf Nation and other sources I saw that this can sometimes happen and so because I'm a scripting god I came up with an amazingly complex script that is installed as part of an PreStage Profile's enrolment package workflow. The script does the following:/usr/local/bin/jamf policyThis immediately caused enrolment to complete, the Self Service app appeared in /Applications and everything was once more right in the world. A reboot would achieve the same, but we didn't want to randomly reboot the Mac halfway through enrolment or ask the user to
