I’m unsure if this effects iPadOS 26.0 as I have just pushed out iPadOS 26.0.1 to devices this week.  We have a Single App Mode profile for TD Snap (though app doesn’t really matter).  After the device is rebooted it looks like on the home screen you can’t unlock the device.Swiping up just shows “No older notifications” but does not unlock the phone and take it to the Single App locked mode to TD Snap.Has anyone else experienced this?This iPad is on iPadOS 26.0.1.  Didn’t have this issue prior to the update.

I'm trying to setup the GoGuardian app for a small group of our iPads. I have everything working except that I can't find a way in Jamf Pro to turn on the setting for "Allow Notifications" in the Screen Sharing section. It's off by default but it needs to be enabled so that teachers can send notifications to the iPad requesting it to open a browser tab for the student.I'm guessing that's just not something Apple allows Jamf to set, but I wanted to check with group and make sure I'm not missing something obvious. Thanks!

Attending JNUC 2025 in Denver was an incredible experience, a mix of innovation, collaboration, and community. Being surrounded by Apple IT professionals, consultants, and Jamf engineers reaffirmed how rapidly the Apple ecosystem is evolving across management, automation, and security. Key Takeaways 1. Jamf Blueprints and Compliance FrameworksThe new Blueprints feature truly changes how we approach configuration management. The ability to combine configuration profiles, policies, and restrictions into modular blueprints simplifies deployment and compliance alignment, especially for large environments.It also pairs perfectly with automated compliance reporting and remediation workflows, something I’m already planning to test in our sandbox. 2. Jamf Pro + AI IntegrationOne of my favorite announcements was the AI integration in Jamf Pro, providing smart recommendations, faster troubleshooting insights, and context-aware automation. This is going to significantly reduce admin time on repet

Hey,I’ve tried looking for this all over and found some partial solutions that don’t really work so I wanted to ask here.I’ve been asked to set up several iMacs to auto-log off or reboot after 30 minutes of inactivity AND (this is the kicker) delete all files on Desktop, Downloads, and Documents.I found the Configuration Profile Login Window setting to auto log-off but I’ve seen that if people left unsaved documents over it doesn’t work. It seems to me some scripting is needed here and that’s still a weak spot for me so I’m putting this out to this community in the hopes of some help.Thanks in advance!

How is everyone securely disposing or destroying their own Apple SSD storage units?Considering that MacBooks from 2016 to 2022 have an SSD (NAND storage) that is not upgradeable,and it is not replaceable either, since it is soldered onto the main board:If a company has decommissioned a MacBook and the device reaches its end-of-life,the NAND storage cannot be extracted and re-used on a different device.Also:How can businesses assert that their data is securely wiped before device disposal?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for the best way to convert mobile accounts to local accounts without using Jamf Connect, and to do it cleanly. The goal is to improve compatibility with FileVault, since it generally works better with local accounts. I’ve tested version 3.0 of https://github.com/BIG-RAT/mobile_to_local.The script seems to correctly convert the mobile account into a standard local user and successfully removes the Mac from the domain.However, after that step, I wanted to test joining the domain again the rejoin works, but I can no longer log in with any AD accounts. No matter which account or password I use, authentication just fails. Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a more reliable method ? 

Troubleshooting done - Usually outlook case space issue happens if user has local archives, migration to new outlook will cause storage space issue. Outlook size remains same  - Checked for logs , nothing unusual. - ran disk space analyzer didn't find anything unusual in size. - no time machine snapshots found. - if i initiate indexing in the mac, system data space reduces immediately more than 150 Gb but it increases quickly to around 50 GB within 15 - 20 min. - if i boot the mac to safe mode, the storage size remains same nothing changes. - checked launchagents, launch daemons, login items, nothing unusual,   if anyone has faced this issue, let me know

Hey Everyone, I have been battling this issue for quite some time and have done rigorous testing but have sincerely hit a wall with this issue. My organization is prepping to remove Administrator access from all users on our macOS systems, this requires them all to be converted to a Standard user. (We have a "MakeMeAnAdmin" script in place in JSS we plan to utilize) MacOS: 14.3.1Jamf Connect: 2.32.0 We use Jamf Connect with Azure/EntraID so users can authenticate on login, we have the app roles setup for the app registration in Azure with two groups, MacUserAdmin-Entra & MacUserStandard-Entra with the correct roles tied to each (Administrator & Standard) The Problem:Whenever a user is moved into the group tied to the STANDARD role in Azure and attempts to login to Jamf Connect on one of our Macs they can enter the O365 email, PW, verify 2FA, but then hit a "Yellow Exclamation Point" box with simply an "Okay" button. Once you click "Okay" you are kicked back

I have a 4th gen Apple TV that was assigned to Apple Business Manager via Config 2.  From there it was assigned to my Jamf and then I scoped it to a prestage enrollment.  When the device boots up it attempts to activate and then jumps over to my remote management and attempts to download a config from my Jamf when the request times out.  Any ideas why its not getting what its looking for.  Im not even sure where I can find logs to see what is failing.  

Hi all,I have been using a script that sets the Recovery Lock password on Silicon Macs without the correct Recovery Lock password already set using the following APIhttps://JAMF_PRO_URL/api/preview/mdm/commands  As mentioned here:https://learn.jamf.com/en-US/bundle/technical-articles/page/Recovery_Lock_Enablement_in_macOS_Using_the_Jamf_Pro_API.htmlHowever it looks like the /preview/mdm/commands has been deprecated, can someone confirm and is there another way to do it or can it only be done with PreStage now? Source: https://developer.jamf.com/jamf-pro/docs/privileges-and-deprecations

I’m curious about your experiences deploying Self Service Plus alongside a Jamf Connect 3.x update. I’m currently testing this and have a policy set up to install both Jamf Connect 3.x and Self Service Plus via policy.However, I’m wondering if it’s better to just upgrade Jamf Connect and use the “Use Self Service+ as the default end user application” option directly from the Jamf Pro server instead.Has anyone tested or noticed any issues in the app’s behavior or reliability during deployment with each approach?

I have created USB disabled policy and pushed over JAMF. which was success but I have noticed that through Android File transfer we are still able to send the confidential file to smart phones. is there any way to completely block file transfer to other devices like mobile phone.

In iPadOS there is a new system app, Phone.But it doesn’t seem to be blockable using a Profile, since it doesn’t seem to be present in the list of Default Applications.Has anybody found the same issue? And, more importantly, a solution?Thanks in advance.

Trying to install Chrome for Mac using the app installer.  When it installs, chrome will no allow me to update manually.  If I manually install chrome, then there isn’t an issue.I do not have a configuration profiles loaded for chrome.

Hello everyone, I work as a system admin and have a user who already signed up for an apple id using their work email and now I cannot create an account for him within the DEP using that email address. Is there a way to convert or enroll the apple id so it falls under the DEP? Currently the error I'm getting is "This managed appled id has already been taken". Thanks! L
