With recent IOS updates, the "Bringing Devices Together" settings reverts to default despite users toggling it off. This is problematic because some users carry both a work phone and a personal phone while on duty. The person may toggle off this setting in the Airdrop settings menu, only to have it toggle back on with IOS updates. We would like the option to keep Airdrop on but toggle off this setting in a persistent way or turn off device proximity notifications, because it's annoying to the users. Any thoughts on how to do this?

This might show up twice due to login weirdnesses, if it does I apologize...I'm creating a new prestage enrollment, and I have around 10 devices I want to assign.  I have individually found the serial numbers one at a time which is tedious but doable and checked the assign box, but in the interest of verifying that the correct machines (and only the correct machines) are assigned, I want to see only the assigned machines, not the several hundred "Not Assigned" ones.  the "Filter Results" box will let me filter for "Assigned" but that still shows me all the "Not Assigned" ones as well - I cannot figure out or find online the correct syntax to exclude the "Not Assigned".

I'm using JamfPro MDM in cloud to manage computers on a campus. I wanted to allow users (employees) to be able to change their local user password (99% are standard, non-admin users) via the mac computer's Users & Groups settings user "Change Password" button while at the SAME TIME NOT ALLOWING them to change the "Allow this user to administer this computer" toggle listed on the same popup window. I tested by creating an duplicate config profile for security & privacy settings with the only change being to allow password change. This policy was applied to a test machine and unfortunately it gives users the ability to decide if the user can administer the computer which defeats the purpose. I don't understand why this one change password setting in the security & privacy config profile section does more than give password change permission. Any thoughts or suggestions with this?A while ago, I resorted to a self-service app script, that the user would trigger, that would requ

Is anyone else's Tomcat settings in Jamf Pro Server Tools broken after upgrading to 11.3 on On-Prem Windows Server?Webserver is running just fine but Jamf Pro Server Tools show it as "not running" and throwing an error when trying to start it.Can control Tomcat through net start/stop tomcat9 or the tomcat9w.exe without any issue.As per warning:As a result of PI116512, new installations and upgrades using the installers will fail if Java 21 is installed. Mitigation: Uninstall Java 21 and reinstall Java 11, or manually install Jamf Pro.we stayed on Java 11.Just curious if this is something with our install or a general update issue?Thanks!

Hello everyone,I have a problem in PreStage Enrollment, when passing through the sAMAccountName, maybe someone here has a solution for it.We need user certificates per configuration profile, which is why I set up a new PreStage Enrollment for MDM Enabled Users, but currently the ShortName (sAMAccountName) is not taken over for the AccountName if the value contains capital letters (which is unfortunately often the case here).The other attributes were already in use, which is why we used "Room" for mapping the sAMAccountName/onpremisessamaccountname, which works so far, but in PreStage only as long as there is no capital letter. If there is a uppercase letter in it, the value is not filled in the macOS account setup and the fields are not locked.AD and AAD are set up and Entra ID as IDP for SSO.There are already hundreds of rolled out Macs in this cloud instance and various dependencies on the username, which is set to the UPN. This is why we cannot generally change the usernam

I have an asset that was auto-enroll via JAMF connect. However, the asset did not do the filevault encryption eventho the policy is there. I opened up a ticket with the to resolve the problem ont he new devices. However, I still have a few devices lingering with filevault not enable.I just tried to manually enable one of these assets and then cycle the key. However, it is not letting me.when I tried with my account. it doesnt take my password or the admin password. if I do it under, a users account it asks for the admin password and the same thing it doenst look like it takes.This is on a M2 with Ventura (13.6.5)I know this has to do with the security token not being enable for the account. Not sure how to fix this. any help greatly appreciated. 

Hi all, we're having a difficult time uninstalling Sophos Endpoint Protection from our Mac endpoints with Jamf. This particular enterprise version of Sophos employs Tamper Protection, which was easy enough for us to disable by creating a policy that deletes the SophosSecure.keychain file that Tamper Protection creates on all the endpoints, but even with Tamper Protection disabled we can't figure out how to remotely uninstall the client itself. So far, we've tried the following approaches, both of these scoped to a test machine with Sophos Endpoint Protection installed and with Tamper Protection disabled: Packaged the Sophos uninstaller (Remove Sophos Endpoint.app) with Composer and added it to a Policy with the Packages payload (specifically, we installed Sophos on the test machine, started Composer and took a before snapshot, uninstalled Sophos, then took an after snapshot, saved and uploaded the resulting .pkg to Jamf) Created a Policy with the Files & Processes

After weeks of working and looking for a solution with Sonoma NOT showing the WiFi through the control center to all my wired lab users, I felt you might stumble across this and need specifics to a solution. I disable the WiFi on my machines.  I do so by running:     sudo networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled Wi-Fi offThis will cause the WiFi icon to show an explanation point.  This is a nasty thing for users, making them think that they don't have internet when they do.  So to eliminate this, I created a Configuration Profile that I push out to these computers.Here it is: Then under Application & Custom Settings, I choose Upload and created the following: The scope will be those computers running Sonoma. I hope you find this useful.Jack LawtonIT Manager/Lab Manager (5 labs - 100+ machines)School of Journalism and New MediaUniversity of Mississippi

Does anyone have experience distributing papercut printers (running on a Windows print server) via Casper to Macs? The problem I am having is with authentication on our AD domain. On the Windows computers, a user logs in using AD credentials, and is not prompted again for a username password when they print. When I setup the printer on a Mac (not distributed through Casper) it does not require secondary authentication. But, the Casper distributed printer does prompt for authentication. I've found the line in the printers.conf file which controls this: "AuthInfoRequired negotiate" vs "AuthInfoRequired username,password". Does anyone have any thoughts on why Casper changes this setting when distributing the printer?

Ever since I updated our organization's JAMF cloud server to ver. 11.3 last week, our team can't change the hostname of our client Mac devices. Though I still can type within the textbox to attempt the changes. However, the save button does nothing other than redirecting me back to the General Tab Prior to the update (i.e. on  ver. 11.2), we have no problems changing the hostnames of our client Mac devices and the changes takes effect in an instant. I've also confirmed that our Policy for Computer Names is enabled at Maintenance > Reset Computer Names At this point I'm not sure whether the issue is on our JAMF cloud server, or whether there is a bug on the latest version that I'm not aware of. Appreciated for any inputs.

Hello everyone,I'm hoping this is a somewhat easy fix. We have one application inside of our self service "Intune Registration" even if we complete the intune registration process when we close out of self service we get "An error occurred while saving. selecting the 'Ok' prompt opens a new prompt, asking if we want to quit anyway. Selecting Quit anyway doesn't actually quit self service and the prompt, just disappears for a second then reopens with 'an error occurred while saving' ok prompt into a loop. We make it finally quit after selecting cancel. Question being, we don't need anything to save anything and this often confuses our users, how can we make this app behave just like the other apps where theres no saving involved.  

I want to utilize Platform SSO with JAMF and Entra as our IDP. I was able to test the microsoft SSO plugin, but I couldn't get platform SSO to work. My goal is to have the user log in with their Entra ID credentials and to have their passwords sync. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello.Does anyone have any experience mapping custom attributes from Google Workspace into Jamf Pro. We are using Google Workspace as our Cloud Identity Provider, and I am trying to sync a custom attribute from Google to populate into the "Department" field in the Mappings editor.I've tried just about every combination of attributes I can think of to try and get the data to pull across correctly, but nothing is working. For reference, the exact thing I am trying to achieve is pulling data from a Custom Attribute called "jamf" with my users' department name, as the actual Department attribute in Google Workspace isn't providing the correct info from our HR system. But when I enter "jamf" as the attribute in the Department field in Jamf Pro, it returns "no value" after a test search. I've also tried "user.jamf", "jamfJamf" and what feels like dozens of other variants to no avail.Any thoughts?

Trying to create a script (python or bash) to push out in a policy via Jamf Pro to delete Google Chrome.app from a system. I've tried various scripts online (new to scripting sorry) and everything fails. I'm currently testing this script and trying to run it manually using bash chrome-uninstall.sh but it keeps saying command not found. What am I doing wrong? #!/bin/bash # Remove Chrome rm -rf /Applications/Google Chrome.app/ exit 0

Hello,I am in the process of testing the implementation of CIS v8 Benchmark for macOS and one issue that I am running into is that I cannot find the profile that allows for touch ID when logging into the computer after being locked. For reference, I created the baseline using Jamf Compliance Editor. I have gone through the profiles that were imported but can't seem to find the one that allows for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Looks like Apple was hacked by IntelBroker. What are you guys' thoughts?    Wonder what implications the release AppleConnect-SSO will have. It has not been updated since 2016 per the docs, but I would not be shocked to learn that its foundation is very similar to more current tools like Apples Kerberos SSO extension and possibly PSSO. Knowing the code base would make these tools much easier to reverse engineer for exploitation.    Has Apple Been Hacked? June 2024 Breach Exposes Source Code, Hacker Claims (forbes.com)

Hello. I am in need of assistance on this. I have a ticket open with JAMF support but no answers yet. Here's an overview:On premise JAMF behind a firewall.• Conditional access connected to Intune and devices are enrolled in Intune.• Only laptops using conditional access. About 40-50. Recently updated to a Jamf cloud instance• We are un-enrolling devices from On Premise and re-enrolling in Jamf cloud.• Laptops would be last. We need to find a method to move from Conditional access to device compliance.I need to find out if there is a way to have BOTH conditional access and device compliance active in Azure/Intune. This way we could move devices slowly to cloud instance and register them with conditional access. Otherwise we have to pull the switch on all 40+ laptops at the same time and move them over, and enroll them all in Device compliance. Thanks for any information!

New Jamf Admin here I have recently pushed a Firefox update for version 126.0.1 and am getting a lot of reports that Firefox doesn't open back up after updating. The app refuses to open and the only fix is reinstalling the app again. I'm not pushing the app with the configuration profile option selected. Does anyone know why this would be happening?

Hello Team,I am deploying the Nexthink collector v24.5.1.23, I did repackage it, and if I install manually by double clicking on it, then it works fine, but when I am deploying through a JAMF policy it is failing saying that " Installation failed. The package could not be verified." But the same way I am deploying the previous version v23 and it is working fine, where is the issue and how to fix it?
