Afternoon!I went to Support to look for a way to check on the status of a Mass Action.  Figuring that I can see if a Profile or a Config Profile  took, pending or failed, I should be able to so the same with a Mass Action.Unfortunately we cannot.But I was directed to a feature request:https://ideas.jamf.com/ideas/JN-I-25304Let's get some traction behind this one so we can begin to see the outcomes of our Mass Actions. - Kevin Neely 

Hello fellow Jamfs,Attempting to enroll AppleTvs for the first time, iPads are enrolling fine. I have a seperate Pre-Stage for my AppleTvs and manually assigning TVS to TV pre-stage I created. But when I try to enroll TVs I get "Invalid Profile" anyone seen this and any possible solutions? I'm skipping all the tvos options in the pre-stage so not sure where the invalid profile is coming from.  Thanks everyone 

I am attempting to install a printer via self service. It fails each time. I am installing through a policy which would install the drivers from a Xerox package then add the printer via Jamf to the print list. I have added the logs below. Any ideas?

We have found the lock command for computers in Jamf is letting our students around the lock by restarting their computers.  With an Intel Big Sur machine the lock command will restart it to the EFI password screen, we can enter the EFI password and continue to the white passcode screen or we can restart and get returned to the EFI password screen again.  Intel Monterey machines shut down and restart to the EFI password screen; if we put in the EFI password it goes to the gray passcode screen showing the message we set with the code, if we hold the power button and restart it the Mac will boot normally and the student can continue using it despite us having locked it.

 Apple released an update for Safari and my guess is there will be Security updates shortly.How are admins updating these?Thanks for any help.

Hello all! Fairly new to Jamf here, have inherited a bunch of Macs and a jamf instance.What I'm trying to do today is create a configuration profile that disallows our Macs from being enrolled in iCloud's Find My Mac.I've found where to do this in Configuration Profiles -> (new profile) -> Restrictions -> Functionality. However, i set the scope to my Mac only, restarted, then signed in again, and then attempted to enroll in Find My Mac on my personal iCloud (which is what i'm trying to prevent users from doing), and of course it happily signed up.I feel like i'm missing something.Do new configuration profiles get applied as they're scoped to computers? Or are they only applied when a computer having its first set of policies applied (post OS installation)? Is there a way to manually push a new profile from my Jamf console to all my Macs?Any tips or pointers would be super appreciated!Also, completely unrelated, out of curiosity, I've heard there is a great slack

Hi, We are trying to find a way to un-install BitDefender via JAMF, and not use the manual uninstaller on 180 users. Has anyone had any experience on doing so?

We recently became aware of a Java vulnerability in the Apache Commons Text library [CVE-2022-42889] that could allow for code injection by a malicious actor. While Jamf Pro, Jamf Now, Jamf School, Jamf Threat Defense, Jamf Data Policy, Infrastructure Manager, and Jamf Private Access do utilize this library, a thorough review has shown that these products are not vulnerable to this attack. Although the products themselves are not vulnerable to this attack, upcoming releases of Jamf Pro, Jamf Now, Jamf School, Jamf Threat Defense, Jamf Data Policy, Infrastructure Manager, and Jamf Private Access will contain updates to this vulnerable library. If you have any questions or experience any issues during this process, contact Jamf Support for assistance. Aaron KiemeleCISO, Jamf

Hello,we're starting to deploy Jamf Connect and it went well so far for the employees at home, but today I noticed that we cannot connect to our offices wifi from the Jamf Connect Login window, meaning that we can't connect from Jamf Connect to our macbook pros at the office.We use Radius wifi at the offices with AD credentials. If we login local offline on the macbook, we can then connect to the wifi from mac preference system, but the Jamf Connect Login window refuses the same credentials to connect to the wifi.The network department have no idea why the login window could be restricted from using the radius wifi. Note that we tried 3 different accounts and different macbooks ending with the same results.We also tried with the "devices" network, which is WPA2, doesn't require a username, only a password and this one works. But this network is not supposed to be used by employee macbooks.Am I missing something ? To my understanding, it doesn't make any sense at all.

Hey All, Has anyone been able to get DEP with Directory Binding to work. We are using Active Directory, that is only accessible internally. We are only trying to get this to work for internal use. Meaning we will be having employees set up their computers internal only. The weird part is the machines will go through the DEP process successfully. Install the Framework, and run the enrollment scripts. The only thing it won't do is Bind the machine to AD so that the user can log in with an AD account, instead of a Local account. Im using the same Binding settings we use in our Casper Imaging WorkFlows, so I'm confused on why it doesn't work. Any suggestions/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Also what logs can I look at for DEP specifically. Thanks Shawn

Anyone running JAMF Connect with Microsoft O365 backend? Looking to see what experiences people are seeing. We are wanting to login to JAMF Connect (with Azure AD) and then pass that SSO token to all apps (Outlook, Teams, Onedrive) so the users do not have to authenticate to each app.

I am trying to create an extension attribute to grab the currently logged in user on my student machines. I am using a similar script to the Last User extension script template: #!/bin/sh user=`ls -l /dev/console | awk '/ / { print $3 }'` if [ $lastUser == "" ]; then echo "<result>Current User</result>" else echo "<result>$user</result>" fi I have my inventory set to check at login so I can set the extension attribute to the user short name as they sign on. However, when I collect inventory at login, I only get "root" as the currently signed in user. After the user signs in, I can run "sudo jamf recon" from an ssh session as the local admin and it appropriately records the current user in the extension attribute. Why does it show "root" when I run the script at login, vs when I run the script after the user has signed in? Is the inventory collected prior to a user technically be

I am using the following script to delete the Safari & Chrome caches upon login. It seems to work but I noticed it doesnt clear the Safari history. #!/bin/sh #Remove Safari and Chrome Cache sudo -u $3 /bin/rm -rf /Users/$3/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari sudo -u $3 /bin/rm -rf /Users/$3/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome Is that set somewhere else?

Hello Jamf Nation,   Today we are releasing Jamf Pro 10.42. Highlights of this release include:   Declarative Device Management Support Apple's Declarative Device Management is a modern management protocol that allows managed devices to proactively and autonomously apply their own management settings with less communication from the Jamf Pro server. When you upgrade to Jamf Pro 10.42.0, Declarative Device Management is automatically enabled on eligible devices.   Configuration Profiles for Managed Login Items Jamf Pro now includes two predefined configuration profiles containing Managed Login Items payloads, installed by default on eligible computers in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Profiles. These configuration profiles prevent end users from disabling certain background services of apps installed by Jamf in System Settings > General Settings > Login Items > Allow in the Background.   App Installers Enhancements This release introduces s

Still in the "new to jamf phase" of life. Setting up my first environment.Is the zoom in the Jamf App Catalog the IT admin version? Should I be installing the IT admin version via policy and then let the Jamf App Catalog update it? Install the IT admin version and setup the zoom config to allow auto update? Will that work for MacOS Standard users?

Hello, When trying to activate a new Mac that was added to the PreStage Enrollment we get the following error : Mac Activation - The request timed out. Which ports needs to be opened in order to activate Mac for PreStage Enrollment on our Proxy?Would it be the albert.apple.com:443 as mentioned in this article? https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT210060 Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Good afternoon,I am doing some research into why a small number of machines in our fleet were missing a specific product that should have been installed upon enrollment. I've determined a couple of things already but there are a number of endpoints that are checking in that seem to have this specific policy stuck in a 'pending' state. I was hoping to be able to remotely flush each log for the affected machines but those options are greyed out since its in the 'pending' state. Is there a simple way for me to clear out the pending status on each and force it to run again from the backend?ThanksD

Hello All, If there is already another thread dedicated to this please point me in that direction, I don't mean to duplicate them.I'm very new to Jamf prestage enrollments, so I am doing a lot of testing. Basically I have taken one of our new Macbooks out of the box and am using it as the testing device. I have been enrolling it, then making changes, then wiping from Jamf Pro, then enrolling again. Sometimes this works as if the computer is new out of the box and sometimes it doesn't. Many times it is as if Jamf remembers the machine even though I delete it. I have also tried unassigning the device in apple manager, sometimes this works sometimes not. Does anyone have a workflow for this that works every time? Basically I want to enroll the device see what happens, then make changes and do it again.

Hi all,I am trying to create an Extension Attribute to get users Account Expiration date into Jamf.The end goal is to create a smart group of users that are expired and are due to hand in the client etc.Users on the Mac are local only, but in my head Jamf should be able to communicate with the LDAP-server directly to get the end-date of users anyway?I tried to follow this post, but I can't seem to get it to work.https://community.jamf.com/t5/jamf-pro/workflow-with-the-quot-accountexpires-quot-ldap-attribute/m-p/183274Anyone have any input/experience?Thanks in advance!
