I want to use the following adminguide to uninstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro with a script, but can't seem to get it to work. The command line command is located at the just about the bottom of the following link. Does anyone know how to make this command run using a simple script #!/bin.sh ????? http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/mac.html#what-s-new-for-11-x this is the command being performed via youtube video (substitue XI for the applications folder name) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Knvf7WZdP5w

I'm running this script from a policy in Jamf. #!/bin/sh defaults write com.apple.Dock contents-immutable -bool true; killall Dock It does not do anything. However, if I run it locally from Terminal, works like a charm. Any thoughts? What I am doing wrong or forgetting?

Hi all, Anyone know a way to install cached packages one by one? Not using a policy per package or install all cached.

I'm a new Jamf Pro admin.  The previous admin set things up to run the following script when we re-provision a Mac.  It puts a full-screen splashscreen up that lets the user know that the computer shouldn't be used because software is being installed (a process that takes around an hour in a college computer lab).  The script runs on our Apple Silicon Macs but not our Intel Macs.  I'm new to scripting.  Can anyone see why this script won't work correctly on an Intel Mac?  Thanks.  --Jeff ================================= #!/bin/bash# Variables# Set these for your environmentjamfHelperHeading='Macalester College'jamfHelperIconPath='/Library/Application\\ Support/JAMF/extras/mac_logo.png'launchAgentName='org.macalester.jamfHelperSplashScreen'# You probably don't need to change theselaunchAgentPath="/Library/LaunchAgents/${launchAgentName}.plist"jamfHelperPath='/Library/Application\\ Support/JAMF/bin/jamfHelper.app/Contents/MacOS/jamfHelper'# F

HelloI'm new with Jamf so I'm sorry if my question is stupid.I need to deploy unique certificates to every MacOS user managed by my Jamf.What is the most optimal method to do that? I read something about an ADCS connector but I'm not sure if it is what I looking for.

Hello Jamf Nation.. Question: Can you enroll yourself if your not associated to any Company that Supports JAMF Certification? Self Certification? 

Anyone have tried Deploying nudge with M1 machines ? Nudge doesn't download the minor OS update with M1 macs , with still "asynchronous software update" key set to false. Is there any way to make this work ? or I am missing something?

Hi, I use the Layout payload from our Jamf School MDM to organize the Apps on our students Shared iPads.That works BUT when I add a Web Clip in the Layout section this Web Clip is not shown nor any other reorganizing of the Apps. To me it seems Jamf School 9.2.7 has a problem with more than one payload in a profile. Can anybody confirm that? In a Jamf Pro installation I administer, too, more than one payload in a configuration profile works.

I'm trying to use an extension attribute to tell if a program is installed by looking at a few folders to see if the folder/files exist. It's reporting if it's Not Installed, but it's not telling me if it's installed. Am i doing something wrong? #!/bin/bash #xclient is a unix executable if [ ! -f /usr/local/bin/xClient ]; then echo "<result>Not Installed</result>" #xmetering is a unix executable if [ ! -f /usr/local/bin/xMetering ]; then echo "<result>Not Installed</result>" #snowclient.conf is a config file if [ ! -f /etc/snowclient.conf ];then echo "<result>Not Installed</result>" #Snow software is a directory if [ ! -d /Library/Application Support/Snow Software ]; then echo "<result>Not Installed</result>" else echo "<result>Installed</result&gt

Hello,I want to shut down a group of mac minis at 9 PM using a cronjob. I have this written, but not useful. Would anyone have any advice on how to implement a script for this?command being used:Sudo crontab -ii* 21 * * * /sbin/shutdown -h nowEsc:wq 

I'm going nuts with this. In 2020 I created desktop shortcuts for my Apple computer fleet just fine, and now I'm trying to create a new one and can't figure out how I did this. I've read, and re-read, this post from which I learned initially how to do this a couple years ago. Today, when I open Composer and drag the desktop webloc file in the sidebar, it creates the entry, but doesn't show the item under Desktop (it should show right under Desktop, like the picture in this post): I have confirmed that Composer has full disk access. I have tested on a Mac with macOS 12.1 and another with macOS 12.4.macOS account has admin rights.I have tried with chown/chmod/chgflags terminal commands from the original post, and without.Current file info:I'm stumped. I even tried an older Jamf Tools version, didn't make a difference. Any ideas? I know that some of you use scripts for desktop shortcuts but I really wanted to use this method.

Hello all! Im trying to figure out a script to track down the version of Adobe RUM on our Macs to determine if they need to be upgraded. I think the current version is 2.4.0.3. Any idea's? Since it's a Unix Executable its been problematic. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,The extension I'm having issue with is the IP Geo Locator - I tried it as a script and don't get anything except the comma, failing that I tested it line by line and get a 404 error from the freegeoip.appspot.com Do I need to do something special to make this work? https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/third-party-products/files/332/ip-geo-location Thanks!

I need to copy a preconfigured *.app from a Windows share over to the /System/Application folder on a Mac.Unfortunately, I've been beating my head against how to do this and haven't come up with much.I'm really hoping that someone who knows more than I do would know if there's anyway to load that *.app into Jamf and it push it down to a Mac?Otherwise I can probably script it, but since it's Windows it's not exactly as easy as an scp command to copy from "//{fileserver}/MAC INSTALLS/PcounterClient.app" over to "/System/Application".Any suggestions would be highly welcomed!

Hey there! If your users run into this issue https://kb.tableau.com/articles/issue/error-ora-21561-oid-generation-failed-connecting-to-oracle-from-mac"Error "ORA-21561: OID generation failed" Connecting to Oracle with a Mac"Tableau has a solution, edit the hosts file to include local computer name by adding the computer name to the end of the 127.0.0.1 lineWhich is wonderful! and helped us out. But we did not want users to have to edit this manually. So we made a script and deployed it to Tableau users via self service.  This script will add the entry, or remove it if the entry is already there.

My institution is moving to named licenses for Adobe, so I am trying to figure out an easy way to package the Adobe CC Desktop installer, and install it on Macs campus-wide. Does anyone have any advice, or know of a way to do this? I've tried to package through composer and then push it via policy, but it never installs the app.Thanks!

Is it possible to create a WebLink in Jamf Pro and then to push that out to the desktop on all MacBooks?

Hi All,I'm trying to work through an issue I'm having binding in Jamf Pro.  The issue is specifically, the directory option "Allow Administration by" is not working.  This option allows AD groups like "Domain admins" to be automatically local administrators on the MacBook.The strange thing is if I use that same AD admin account and unbind/rebind manually, the "Allow Administration by" option works.Here's what we are doing.1. I created a Configuration profile in the Jamf Pro Console for AD binding2. I created a Prestage enrollment profile selected the AD binding Config. profile3. At enrollment, I can see the AD bind Configuration profile runs.4. once the computer is enrolled, I can log in via my AD admin login, but it does not have administrative rights on the computer. here's some more points of data:1. I ran the command dsconfigad -show.  Verified the "Allowed Admin groups" in the Advanced Options section included all the AD groups.  In our case it's domain ad

I've got a Macbook joined to AD that won't let the user update the OS. The user account is an Admin/mobile account because it's joined to AD and our other MB's don't have this problem, and allow users to kick off the update.  While I could push the update, I'd like to know why this isn't working for this one account and address it before it becomes an issue elsewhere.

I need some advice here but may be impossible...We've been using JAMF as a company for some time to manage Macs but today we had our first request for an iPad.So, I built out a prestage enrolment for iOS devices and asked my colleague to order the iPad through our apple ecommerce page that's linked to our ABM. HOWEVER, they accidently ordered through the standard Apple store.So, my question is... is there a way that I can now add this device to our ABM before it arrives so that I can see how the Prestage enrolment will behave??Thanks :)

We have MacBook Pros that are always on adapter power that have to process large amounts of data. We are finding that the graphics card keeps switching and need to be able to run a profile or policy that will disable the Automatic graphics switching without having to tell users to manually change it themselves. After much digging, we found that the following command would work. We created a policy and added the line to the Files and Processes module. pmset -a gpuswitch 1

I've done lot's of searching, but cannot seem to find any information on this.We are planning to upgrade our backend database from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0.The database is currently using the utf8 character set, which has been deprecated in favor of utf8mb4 in MySQL 8.0.Most other applications now support utf8mb4, does Jamf?  We would like to update the character set as part of the database upgrade. 

Leverage Jamf Pro Script Parameters to automate a multi-Sub-Estate installation of Sophos EndpointBackgroundDuring our monthly Sophos vendor meeting last week, we learned about updated documentation for Installing Endpoint Protection on Macs.The most intriguing information was the addition of a vendor-signed Configuration Profile to ease the sometimes confusing requirements for macOS Big Sur 11 and later.Continue reading …
