I need to remove the signature from a profile so that it is readable. In the past I have used this command:  openssl smime -inform DER -verify -in /Path/To/Profile I get a "Verification failure" when I try this. How can I remove the signature? It has been a while since I have needed to do this so has the procedure changed? I found some websites that said I can do this using Configurator but the profile won't open in Configurator. 

Hello Im trying to deploy avast through caspersuite to our macs when we image them and what not and its not working correctly. I was wondering how you guys do something like that? I talked to avast support and they said to use a repackaged installer, I am fairly new to mac so unsure on how to do that. is there a tool to use to do such a thing? I use the DMG from the avast for business portal and its set up with correct info however using composer it doesnt like to work correctly.

I'm trying to deploy Avast through Jamf Pro to our company MacBooks. This script & steps found here used to work, but there have been changes with Avast that seem to have since broken this process. There are several issues the first being that Avast Business Anti-virus now seems to rely on another App called Avast Business Agent. The other problem seems to be that the Avast that core shields now also includes the "Real Site" protection as well and this needs to be enabled as well. Any help on figuring out how to auto-install and setup the configuration profiles for this would be appreciated.

Hello, We have been using JAMF Connect tied with Azure AD to setup local user accounts on Mac. However recently we have started to see the error message "Password verification unsuccessful: Invalid Client. Contact your IT Administrator" However the password is correct and before we have been able to shut down the mac turn it back on and it has gone through ok, however this time it doesn't seem to have worked. Has anyone else had this issue/knows any workarounds?

Has anybody figured out in current version Google Chrome how to enforce incognito mode (private mode)? As anybody knows in education, expecting students to log out of registration or instructional websites doesn't always happen and occasionally another student or individual will come along and be able to access the previous user's private data. About the only 'sure' way we have 'fixed' this is to encourage students to reboot the computer after they are done. Most of the browsers have an enforceable privacy mode, but Google Chrome doesn't seem to. Any suggestions or ways you have managed to do this would be greatly appreciated!

Hello!We have a Jamf Connect window setup that works well except for one part: If you are a new hire and haven't setup your account yet (we use Okta), when you receive a new machine and get to that window, you'll let it sit but it will auto-continue to a standard MacOS login window. Without walking through the setup process that immediately follows the JC window, the machine will never pickup your username and you'll find yourself in a type of soft-lock where the machine doesn't have an account to use and we need to reach out to these users to walk them through a complete wipe/rebuild from Recovery. I assume there's just some setting/property in our Jamf Connect config profile that "autocomplete's" but I'm unsure what it is. Potentially the "Allow Local Fallback" property? We use that for it's intended use after the user has already setup an account to login to their machine, but our problem of course occurs only for new hires only when they haven't setup an account first.For what

I have a 10.13.6 fresh build mac with an local admin account created by macOS setup Assistant it has a secureToken, but then i bind the machine to our AD which has the setting enabled for mobile accounts, then login as a AD user and get the prompt Enter a secureToken Administrators name and password to allow this mobile account to use file vault.You can select bypass but would prefer we dont get this prompt in the first place for non filevaulted machines.Does anyone know how to suppress this?thanks

Hey Everybody, Ever since Jamf Pro 11.5 I have been seeing very long waits for packages to be completed via the GUI, for example, a single DMG that is 19MB in size can take 15 to 60 minutes for the Availability Pending alert to disappear. Is this now the new normal? If so, can't say it's an improvement.   

Hello All,   Looking to see if anyone has a bash script to pull brew installations and then use that in an Extension Attribute to pull from all machines.   Similar to this post: https://community.jamf.com/t5/jamf-pro/home-brew-and-collect-application-usage-information/m-p/249337   - Can't get the EA working from the post above though :(

Hi Jamf AdminsThe annoying automatic logout from jamf after a short time. Every time login again and navigate back to where you were.Simply annoying.What do you think about this community?CheersPeter

Hi all,I am struggling to find a script that i can use to automatically set open with for certain file types: i.e. .csv to open with Excel, .pdf to open with Adobe Reader  I had a look at MSDA but couldn't find any working examples.  TIA. 

We are facing a problem where user accounts are locked for unknown reasons, and we are trying to find out if our users are entering their passwords correctly (we have a password policy that auto-locks user accounts after N failed attempts).So I'm trying to search logs for events of users typing the wrong password, and I'm running this command:log show --predicate 'subsystem == "com.apple.opendirectoryd" AND category == "auth" AND eventMessage contains "invalid credentials"' --style syslog --info --signpost --last 1h But it shows many "invalid credentials" messages; and every time the user locks the screen, an "invalid credentials" message is generated.Therefore, two questions:1) Does anyone know why an "invalid credentials" message is generated on the screen lock?2) How can I know when users are really entering their password incorrectly and not just locking screens?

Having lots of log-in issues, users getting stuck at loading page. Checking admin portal, it shows 'client crashed processing osupdate status'.I have bypassed by restarting in recovery mode and selecting start-up disk - machine runs very slowly for 10mins then is currently operating at c.90% functionality.Anyone else experiencing this issue? 

Is it possible to change the message "Your Microsoft Entra ID password does not match your local account password。 Enter your local account password to sync your passwords."  to something like "Enter your previous /old password her " ? Most user don't understand what it mean ,....   

Hey Guys,no real Question but i saw some similar posts and questions or request for something like "$sbuject_title" ..I want to share my solution for this scenario and perhaps some of you has an idea to optimize it:User got new mac and wants to transfer all Static Groups from the old to the new mac.I provide this script as policy in Self Service:#!/bin/zsh #region - Prerequisites ################################################################################################################################################################################################ ## Create tmp location # Define the path for the temporary folder TMP_DIR="/Users/Shared/tmp" # Check if the folder already exists if [ -d "$TMP_DIR" ]; then echo "The folder $TMP_DIR already exists." else # Create the folder mkdir -p "$TMP_DIR" # Check if the creation was successful if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "The temporary folder has been successfully created at $TMP_DIR."

Hi, we have recently started using Jamf connect for our Mac Users. We are using a test user right now. I have noticed that, when you restart the computer it will ask for a username and password, and it will not show the Microsoft Entra login screen. It will show the Microsoft Entra Login screen once the user signs out, but if the user restarts the computer it will show the filevault login screen. So the issue with this is, we have a password policy for our end users to change their passwords every 90 days. So it's possible they will change their password and will not be able to login the mac unless they use their old password. Or they might forget their password altogether then I am not sure how we will be able to get back in on the Mac.  Is there a way to disable the file vault login screen so the user will just see the Microsoft Entra login screen even when they restart the computer? The Microsoft Entra login screen only appears when the user signs out instead of

I have been having problems getting Symantec Management deployed during my enrollment process. Like a lot of Apple admins, I use a script that runs the whole ZTP process. All other apps deploy reliably with no issues. What makes this even harder to figure out is that if I use Terminal to run the SAME POLICY that is being ran during ZTP, it works. Every time. The ZTP script is running "jamf policy -event install-symantecmanagement". The only difference between this and me using Terminal is that in Terminal, I need to use "sudo" before the Jamf policy command. Also, a Symantec Management install policy that we have setup to run at check-in for Macs that don't have it installed for some reason works. There is only one Symantec Management install policy. It works when we use Terminal. It works with a check-in policy, but it won't work when the ZTP script runs the policy. Here's the breakdown of the install policy. I get a "Cloud-enabled Agent Installation Package" from the app owner at my

I am using Jamf cloud and  Microsoft Entra ID to login. User password will expire every 3 months.currently I run a script in windows to retrieve their password expire day and remind all mac user.I am thinking to add an user extension attributes and use api to update it daily.Then, run a policy daily to check if the date is less than 7 days Jamf will prompt a message to ask user to change the password .. Is it the way to go ?ThanksEdwin
