Shared iPads can be configured with a quota to prevent it gets full quickly, could be on the teachers maneged IDs to bypass that quota or use the iCloud 200Gb on that account? If I had 200Gb account but the shared iPad had 3Gb you can't move photos or videos from the iPad to icloud, it get full easly. Thank you very much

Hi, when Safari is block in profiles settings in Jamf School, it is still possible to access a browser in the "passwords" menu. Is it possible to disable this icon ?Thx 

I did an enrollment invitation the other day and noticed that only the MDM profile downloads for installation.  What happened to the certificate that was supposed to download next? It never downloads.  Is it part of the MDM profile installation now? Seems like the certificate gets installed with the MDM profile in the single download.  The certificate looks like it is downloading but nothing downloads.

Pre-Ventura, I've been used a couple of different scripts to delete users' folders via a Jamf policy. It's worth noting this script only deleted the folder, but did not delete the user account with the OS. When a user with a deleted folder would log in again, their user folder would be recreated as a default user folder and they'd go on their merry way.With Ventura, the script will delete the user folder, but when the user tries to log in again, the computer will hang. Testing has shown the problem is the lingering user account. If I manually delete the account, log in works normally for then.I'm curious what scripts y'all are using to accomplish user removal in Ventura? I've been using the script below which removes the user accounts via "sysadminctl -deleteUser [username]", but sometimes it doesn't catch all the users.   #!/bin/bash # Loop through users with homes in /Users; use grep to exclude any accounts you don't want removed (i.e. local admin and current user if

Good afternoon,   I'm hoping someone can offer some advise on an issue I'm seeing in my company lately.  Our macbooks have started to repeatedly prompt for "*insert application* wants to use your confidential information stored in "webproxy.*********" in your keychain. To allow this, enter the "login" keychain password".  End users will enter their login password and select "Always Allow", but it just keeps repeating over and over again.    In the past, I could always fix this by going to their login keychain, select the proxy entries, and under "Access Control" I'd select "Allow all applications to access this item".  However, this doesn't seem to be working anymore and I can't figure out how to stop the constant bombardment of password prompts they're seeing.     We have both Intel and M1 macbooks running up to date Big Sur and Monterey installs.

I've often read on posts (or heard on YouTube videos) the admonition that one really shouldn't have many PreStage Enrolments without really being told the reason why not. Here I am looking at 8 of them and I can see that apart from one (Staff Macbooks which require Jamf Connect Config Profiles in PreStage), there really isn't that much difference between Lab 1, Lab 2, etc PreStages so I could technically combine them to just Lab PreStage. However, I assign computers to each PreStage and use the PreStage "membership" to populate our Smart Groups (e.g. Lab 1 Smart Group has criteria of memberof Lab 1 PreStage). If you are using a single PreStage for all your devices, how do you populate your Smart Groups? The only way I can see is if you make multiple criteria using "Serial Number equals XXXX" with the OR operator which I find more tedious than just checking them under the correct PreStage. Keen to hear how others are doing it.

Hi All,This one has come up before in the forums, but I am trying to determine why my script has stopped working in my test environment but still is working fine in production.  It's the same script and I made sure to change the script to reflect the API user in test.  We have a field in our preload called AssetTag which the script should be reading and then renaming the device to based on serial.  This script is failing with the following error:  Asset Tag is being set in the preload and is being seen by JAMF on the record but is not completing the change. Script exit code: 1Script result: Asset Tag is empty. Exiting...Error running script: return code was 1.  /bin/bash #set the variables for the server and API account jssUser=APIUSER jssPass=PASSWORD jssHost=https://jamfcloudinfohere.jamfcloud.com #get the serial number serialNumber="$(ioreg -l | grep IOPlatformSerialNumber | sed -e 's/.*\\"\\(.*\\)\\"/\\1/')" #get the asset tag from jamf asse

Our GSX connection certificate is about to expire.  We got a new one from Apple's GSX services.   The JAMF pro documentation says there is a renew button.  It's totally missing from our 11.3 cloud instance.  I've opened a ticket with JAMF but heard nothing back. I went ahead and removed the old certificate and uploaded the new one.  The only way I could to get the certificate in there.   I also loaded up a new API token.    Now, I'm getting unauthorized.  GSX has came back and said it's a Jamf UI problem as the cert and account look good. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this? Renewing the Apple Certificate You can use Jamf Pro to upload a renewed Apple certificate without removing the existing certificate so the connection with GSX is not lost. A notification is displayed 31 days prior to the expiration date of the Apple certificate. In Jamf Pro, click Settings in the sidebar. In the Global section, click GSX connection. Click E

Hello all, is it just me or can Jamf app Installers only be assigned to smart groups? Hoping this changes as I have several that really do not make sense to make smart groups for since there is not really a common thread between the users. I guess I could make a Smart group that is just members of the static group, but this seems like a redundant approach.  

Greetings! I'm trying to create an EA that detects when a user has added their own user to a device. We need an indicator of "setup-ed-ness" on laptops. A device that a user has never powered on, or has but never logged in to, needs to not run a couple policies, but once someone has their user account (John Doe), it should be in a "ready" state.So I'm searching for "Machines with known accounts, plus more." We have two accounts fleet-wide, with predictable names. Once someone logs in with Jamf Connect, there should be a third account. But I can't write a one-size fits all for known1, known2, as well as unkonwn1, unkonwn2, unknownN in a Smart Group, at least not that I'm aware. I can create a smart group that checks for the presence of the expected users.I was thinking I'd need to write an EA, but zsh is giving me a devil of a time taking dscl's output and putting it into an array I can cross-check.Anyone have any guidance on a pre-existing EA that's c

We've noticed that since upgrading to Sonoma we are unable to push commands to laptop that is not logged in. If it is still on the log in window (Displaying list of users) we are not able to push Lock or Wipe Commands, they stay on pending. This is happening even if we plug a network cable in. 

Has anyone else run into issues where macOS users no longer receive Notification Center notifications from Jamf patch management events? For a long time this worked fine. I'd update an app via JPS patch management, and the user would get a Notification Center notice when each new update was available and the SS dock icon would show the number of ready updates in the red badge. But here lately neither of those happen. No Notification Center notices when a new update is ready and red badge only shows on the SS dock icon when the SS app is running. Details. . .Jamf Pro 10.8.0Push Certs are currentSelf Service settings for macOS has "Enable Self Service Notifications" checked.I worked a ticket with Jamf support but they kind of threw up their hands and said "yep, seeing some inconsistencies with this" and assigned it a PI number (PI-005955).Anything else I should be looking at? I mean I feel like this is pretty important since how else will my users know when they

I would like to know what kind of ACP level JAMF Pro has. ACP Level in here is related to Cybersecurity. 

Hello,  I've been using the Splunk intergration for some time now but the last week or so it is now complaining that it cant verify the SSL when attempting to connect to our Jamf Instance. Nothing has changed in terms of configuration. Looking at various documentation and things in github, it says there was a feature added some time ago to allow connections to instances with invalid certificates. To be sure, the certificate is valid but I cant get our Splunk to connect to it.  Has any one had this sort of issue? Is there a way to tell the jamf add on not to verify SSL?  The specific error that i get is[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED]

Hello, I took and passed the Jamf Certified Associate exam yesterday (2/22/20). I see that the badge has been posted to my profile. Will I receive a copy of the certificate as well? Also is there a place to download a receipt to prove I paid for the exam? I didn't receive any email confirmation when I purchased and completed the exam. I am wanting to pass this information onto my employer (I used my own personal Jamf Nation account and not my employer's, if that matters at all) Thanks!

Hello,I would like to have your opinions on a subject concerning FileVault computers that need to be sent to an external customer after-sales support.What is the best procedure knowing that our managers want the devices to be sent to the external support service encrypted.These Macs only have one FV user account and SecureToken, that of the end-user whose password we don't know.The only local admin account created during the prestage is managed by LAPS.What would you advise me?Thank you

I mean, there is definitely not a technical limitation, but an artificial one. One can still make another smart group that includes the "latest version" smart group within it, and be able to scope actions based on it. 

In the last couple months new devices, and devices that have been wiped and re-enrolled, are showing up with Apple IDs. It's only happening on devices with Ventura and Sonoma.Did something change? We disabled all the iCloud/AppleID sign in options under preferences with a config profile. iMessages, Apple Music, Apple TV, are disabled as well.My only guess is there as an app, or feature, we haven't found that is allowing Apple IDs.Any ideas?

Hi, I am trying to deploy Office 2021 (VolumeLicense) and with that I want do disable the ability for users to login to office and use their private Office 365 licenses.On this site (https://learn.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoft-365/enterprise/network-requests-in-office-2016-for-mac?view=o365-worldwide) I found three preferences witch to my understanding should just do that:  defaults write com.microsoft.Word UseOnlineContent -integer 0 defaults write com.microsoft.Excel UseOnlineContent -integer 0 defaults write com.microsoft.Powerpoint UseOnlineContent -integer 0  But they don't seem to work (not when deployed through Jamf or run locally).Has anyone been handling this?

I wanted to see if anyone else has or is experiencing this, we have a jamf cloud hosted instance.  So far jamf support has been unable to determine the cause of the issue.  When signing into Self Service, which uses Okta for us, instead of going into Self Service and seeing your available applications to you, it opens a webkit window of our jamf pro dashboard inside the Self Service app, if you don't have login rights to our console then the user gets access denied.  This is a screen grab from our dev enviroment, where the issue started happening first and then "magically" started occurring on our production instance which is on a slightly older version of jamf.  Of our identity team that manages Okta says they have made no changes.  I have tried turning SSO on and off for the instance, turning off SSO for Self Service and turning that back on, but it's still the same experience.  Both instances were working perfectly fine up until about week ago. &nb
