Hello everyone;Does any one know how to disable "you don't have permission to use the application "..."" popup, while turn on the parent control "only allow apps" from configuration profile? Only show the "The application "..." can't be opened" popup.
We are experiencing an odd issue in Jamf where it is reporting both 13.5 and 13.5.0. I have confirmed that 13.5.0 is not a beta version since the build number is the same across these 2 versions. I have also already tested on a Mac that is reporting in Jamf as 13.5.0 that sw_vers -productversion displays 13.5.Has anyone else been experiencing this issue?
I am in the process of writing a new "make me an admin" script. I know there are others that are available but I wanted to do this myself. Yesterday, I got a version of the script working. It promotes the user to admin, then launches Jamf Helper with a countdown. When the countdown is finished, it reverts the user back to a standard account. That part works perfectly. The next step is to add a function to check if the user is already an admin user. That's where I'm having trouble. If I run this part of the script through CodeRunner, it displays the Jamf Helper with a "Done" button. Obviously, the variables defined are working. My Jamf Helper syntax is correct. The if statement that contains the Jamf Helper configuration works. What will be added later is an "else" to elevate the standard user to admin, then launch Jamf Helper with a countdown. When I have these two steps working, I will go back and add in the ability to demote any additional admin accounts that the user may have added
Hi everyone,I created a policy to install Google Chrome using the Installomator script and accidentally scoped it to all computers instead of just newly enrolled devices. Some of my staff report Chrome installing fine and no other issues. Others are saying they get the prompt that Chrome is installing, it closes Chrome, and then says it updated... 30 minutes later, they get the prompt again and it closes Chrome, etc.Is there a way to kill the process so it stops trying to install Chrome?Let me know if you need any information from the script I am using or the policy I created, etc.
Now I'm migrating from Jamf to Intune. However, in my ABM preference session 'Default MDM server' showing as 'Jamf Pro' and kept as it is. And I'm changing the MDM server manually to 'Intune' by searching the device under device section for testing purpose. Now my question is which will take precedence here, Is that Jamf or Intune MDM server? And any impact to the environment in case if I change the 'Default MDM server' to 'Intune'. Kindly clarify it. Thanks for understanding
Hi! We are looking for a way to enable our user to enroll new macs onsite with our corporate wifi.WiFi is a SSID Hidden WPA2-Enterprise, so users have to use their AD credentials to connect.During Zero-Touch-Setup when the mac setup is prompting the user to connect to a wifi, majority of them are not able to connect a hidden ssid wifi with ad login on top, macOS prompts for the password which user have to leave blank, press enter and then gets asked for their AD Credentials.Or we have issues with the wifi after Initial deployment when the user made it to the wifi and the macs are terminating the connection right before Jamf Connect. How do you guys handle this? A separate "Setup Wifi" and pushing the right corporate wifi after setup with an config profile? Seems not ideal, so we are open for inspiration :)
I have a local account policy that is still pending for one of my machines, but this particular machine has checked into Jamf plenty of times in the meantime. The log action (details, flush) are also greyed out. Any Ideas
Hi I want to add an App but it is not listed in the Jamf list. Is there a way to do this? it about this application https://www.papersapp.com/Thanks
Before version 10.47, App Installers were not relevant for us as there was no Self Service option. Most of our apps were distributed from uploading pkg and installing via a policy (from Self Service).We only install very few apps during enrollment and let the users decide for themselves what they want from Self Service.Now our users may already have installed Chrome or Firefox (or other apps). How do I get them to use the one from the Jamf Catalog?I already created these apps from Jamf App Catalog, but as I understand, this will only auto-update if you install it from the App Installer. So do I need to ask all users to uninstall and then reinstall their apps?Or is there a way I can automate this?
Is there any way with JAMF to schedule when iOS apps update themselves so that they're not trying to update willy nilly throughout the day? We have some users who are complaining that their apps try to update at inopportune times. Force updates are set on, but it's my understanding that if we didn't have that then they'd have to manually update their apps via self-service? Ideally I'd want to set it to just run updates overnight if that is a possibility in JAMF Pro. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Hi folks,Just wondering if any have switched from Intune to Jamf - on IOS devices (this topic is not mac related).We have used intune, and overall I think the experience is pretty bad. Often new updates from Apple come very late into Intune - like RSR support. And overall if pushing apps to devices, the inventory updates first after several hours and the app also can take really long time to get installed.But is it only me that see this issues with Intune ? - The only argument I read on using intune from Admins is typicall that Intune is "free", as companies already have Microsoft licenses where Intune is free included in. But overall features, management, user friendly Intune would not be selected in my view ?Any comments ? - or maybe someone that did the switch from Intune to Jamf on IOS?

I have a script I am using for creating website shortcuts on the desktop. My manager doesn't like that they all end in .webloc and asked if I can hide the extension, which can be done in the Finder. The only way I found to do this is using AppleScript command set extension hidden. I have no problem running the following script as myself (removing the sudo -u $logged_in_user). It creates the shortcut and hides the webloc extension. But no matter what I cannot figure out how to get this to work when running the script as root. Since the script will run from JAMF it will always run as root. Any help with this would be appreciated. #!/bin/zsh logged_in_user=$(/usr/sbin/scutil <<< "show State:/Users/ConsoleUser" | awk '/Name :/ && ! /loginwindow/ {print $3}') webloc_filename="Apple" webloc_address="https://www.apple.com/" shortcutPath="/Users/${logged_in_user}/Desktop/${webloc_filename}.webloc" webloc_data='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?
We are seeing this account creation failed error message occur more often now in M1 and M2 macbooks running Ventura or Monterey OS. We have set up prestage in jamf to automatically create an admin account before the apple set up assistance steps. The workflow is, we turn on the macbook (already assigned to default prestage) and it gets enrolled through ADE and installs the remote management profile. Skips the admin account creation part, but allows us to create a local user manually. This is where it throws the error message. We have a tick with Jamf Support, but not so helpful as it doesn't sound like they have a solid fix for this.
Hi everyone,Combing over articles, including this one: http://www.cainehorr.com/jamf-workflow-for-tenable-nessus-agent/.Is anyone using an extension attribute that tells you what host the Nessus Agent is currently linked to? This way we can see if it's incorrectly linked to the wrong host in the EA, then send a policy to re-link the Macs to the right host.Currently using the EAs below ok:• Nessus Agent Installation Status• Nessus Agent Service Status• Nessus Agent versionThank you!
Guys,We have a requirements that customer would like want to get the change time change automatically as soon as end user travelled to some other location or region. Kindly help me with the shell script it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Noticed this message on one of my pilot machines today. I had to reinstall the framework via the API. Anyone seen this on version 10.44.1 or 10.45.0 of Jamf Cloud? User is running macOS Ventura 13.2.
We have a faculty member who uses content from the Apple TV app on his Mac when teaching. He just came by and can't log in to his Apple ID (Personal account) where his content is even though he is signed in to iCloud. I tried on one of my test machines and got the same results.I did try with my managed Apple ID and it let me log in... Is there a way to enable personal Apple ID's to log in to the Apple TV application? We do have Activation Lock disabled
How would I remove a user associated to a laptop? They just received a new laptop, and I'd like to remove them from the current laptop so It can be redeployed. Additionally, whenever I try to make changes to the laptop (like renaming it) I receive a prompt stating the user will be added to a group or other changes could be made to the user.
Our cloud asset was recently upgraded to 10.27There are new Patch Policies available and a handful of "Legacy" and "Deprecated" Software Titles. I'm seeing EA errors for the Patch Management of Microsoft AutoUpdate and for Mozilla Firefox. I'm no EA wizard, but I don't see anything obvious in the EA provided by the Patch Management. Anyone else seeing this?
When migrating from jamf on-prem to cloud, devices are first unenrolled from on-prem. Which means they loose every Configuration Profile for system extensions, PPPC, 802.1X etc. Users get the notification prompt to enroll into jamf cloud and if they click through that it does migrate them successfully. But is anyone aware of a process to make this smoother so users don't see dozens of other notifications/prompts while they're in the "limbo" state? I saw Rocketman Tech had a workflow using DEPNotify that made things a bit smoother. It did look like it was able to hide all of those notifications (at least during the demo https://youtu.be/ZTbv5ZvI3pI). But on current versions of macOS there isn't a way to stage profiles that remain after unenrollment as far as i know. So the only option i see to help with all the prompts would be to use AppleScript to close out the undesired notifications. I don't know how well that would work since that
Hi all,I’m having an issue trying to get a machine to register to my intune. This issue is only happening to one computer and all of the others are working fine which leads me to believe that the issue is within Intune. Please kindly share your thoughts on this issue on where to check in intune or Jamf. (See screenshot) Thanks.
Hi, I'm looking for a way to setup an Extension Attribute to let us know when a local user account is locked out of their MacBook. I'm not seeing or know of a way to track in JAMF. The devices are not bound to AD. Currently in JAMF when I check the local user account and click on managed for that account, I only see the option to unlock it, but it doesn't say if the account is locked or not.
Hi team,We have jamf integrated with Azure directly.We are trying to update jamf client from Intune on Macs, but although from Intune marks the application as updated, on the devices we find that the version installed on the previous one.Has anyone had this problem? Do you need more information?
Ex.A user brings their device (BYOD) -- They log into the MacBook that's under our JAMF control, and it automatically adjusts settings they may have set for things. Semi-new JAMF user here.
