I am a Jamf Pro customer and think Jamf Teacher has great potential! However, our teachers are struggling to fully integrate it because of some missing key features. 1.) We are not enforcing the home screen layout payload so students can customize their iPads and organize their apps in a manner that works best for them. After restrictions are cleared, their apps lose their organizational structure and end up anywhere on their iPads. Apps that were in folders don't stay in those folders. 2.) Lack of status window/confirmation pop-up to see when you have a lesson in progress or have issued a command to student iPads. Teachers would like more visibility/confirmation as they issue commands and place restrictions.

Since November 2025 you can find the warranty information for your Mac devices in Apple Business Manager. You can call this information using API calls. Is there any information if Jamf is going to make an Jamf integration? This warranty information would be a cool feature to have in Jamf. As an MSP it would be great for Life Cycle Management for our customers.I’ve seen no information from Jamf jet.Sofar I've been working on local scripting in python to get the ABM warranty information in Jamf as an Extension Attribute. For Computers I've succeeded I'm however not successful yet for mobile devices. The Jamf Classic and Pro API’s won’t let me update Extension Attributes for mobile. So I'm stuc.Anybody there who would like to help? Or can somebody tell me how to update an extension attribute for mobile, if it is possible and not blocked in api.Kind Regard Remco.  

We currently have the “Erase All Content and Settings” option blocked on our student iPads. However, we would also like to block the “Transfer or Reset” option, or at least the “Reset All Settings” option, on those devices.Is this something that can be configured?  Thank you

Hello all,I just started with an existing system that isn’t really documented.  This means I have to do a lot of jumping around to determine what something does, where it applies, and even if it is working.  I want to create some good documentation for this, but I’m don’t know what the best method for doing this would be.Thank You in advance,-Pat

We manage our ipads using Jamf Pro. We load the students google email accounts onto the device using a Jamf configuration profile with the Google payload.  The mail account will appear on the device (ipad iOS mail app) and prompt user to enter google password.  The user enters the password and the iOS mail app will display the students google email.  However,  several times through out each day, the iOS mail app will stop displaying google email and prompt user to re-enter their google password.   After re-entering the google credentials, the Mail app will not always start working again.    I have had Jamf support review our config file with the google payload - they said it is set up correctly.  I have contacted Google and they said that it is a Jamf issue.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?  How did you resolve it? thanks.

Howdy everybody! Time for my annual post about how we all need to get our budgets prepped and ready to go for all the hardware we need to replace that Apple is dropping from its OS Compatibility list!I've modified my previous regex statement to take out the models that were lost to us this year to the latest macOS version. It looks like Apple is taking a big ole axe to the intel macs, minus only a couple of exceptions that seem to tie to the devices that were still being sold at the time of the M1 release. One tricky piece are the specific intel MacBook Pro's that Apple has listed. In that grouping are the MacBookPro16,x models, where x is 1,2 and 4, but not the 16,3 model, so keep that in mind. If anyone has details that contradict that, please let me know here and i'll quickly change the posted regex.I've tested this in my own Jamf instances to verify its returning the data that i'd expect to see, and am confident this will be able to match everything that is no long

Issue: Mobile Devices on iOS and iPadOS 26 or later Booting are occasionally booting into Recovery Mode. Standard expected workflow: We have Microsoft Entra ID SSO extension configured with the Jamf Setup and Jamf Reset apps. When a user signs out using Jamf Reset three different configuration profiles are removed:Profile with a Passcode payload Profile with a Restrictions payload Profile with a Lock Screen Message payload When the above profiles are removed, two profiles are installed:Profile with a Restrictions payload Profile with a Lock Screen Message payload The issue appears to occur during Jamf Reset sign out as one configuration profile is removed (confirmed by completed command logs) and can vary between the Passcode payload profile or the Restrictions payload profile while the other two commands are left pending.Example pending commands that occur at the time of

After poking around Jamf Pro and Jamf Protect, it seems that JSC/RADAR/Wandera is the only source of storage for CVE-level details for managed client app inventories. I can plainly see them in the default web dashboard. So I set up a Risk API key, and enabled the option to see user and device details.Both the docs [1] and manual exploration seem to conclude that only “Device risk” can be gathered from the public API, whereas things like “Average CVSS score” (or anything related to CVEs) cannot. Which would be fine if those two had a tight relationship, but I can plainly see things like an endpoint with six (6) high-scoring app vulnerabilities (including a 10 and a 9.8) per CVSS that only has two (2) app vulnerabilities reported per device risk and grading overall as low-risk.I did notice that app vulns as a category can be force-upgraded from low to high to influence device risk more, but it’s possible that device risk will entirely miss the presence of vulne

Hello everyone,i wanted to roll out our new custom TeamViewer Host and everything works except that our custom design with the company logo is not displayed. I did it exactly as in the instructions: https://hcsonline.com/images/PDFs/Jamf_Teamviewer_Host.pdf After the custom logo didn't show up, I kept searching and came across these instructions: https://community.teamviewer.com/English/kb/articles/50739-mass-deployment-on-macos#perform-an-assignmentThe groups and the membership works but unfortunately our custom layout does not. Am I missing something or have I done something wrong? 

You got this.  TGIF!Have a great weekend!Feel free to share to your memes or express that you are glad this moment has finally arrived and the weekend will soon be upon us. 

We are currently using a pre-stage created managed account and the LAPS process for passwords on that account. Since we use Jamf Connect, we have ‘skip account creation step’ turned on.I am finding that this account is not getting the bootstrap token escrowed or a secure token after MDM enrollment. Is this intended? How can I change this? Ideally, I’d like to have a hands off option that doesn’t require a manual installation so that we always have the bootstrap token escrowed and a secure token on our managed account. What am I missing in this step? I am finding when we do need to use the local admin account, it’s not able to take some actions, like install a new OS.

👋🏻 Hi everyone!We are organizing a Mac Admin community event on April 30th in Leiden (Netherlands) and wanted to share an early heads-up here.This is not a vendor or company event — it’s very much by the community, for the community, Inspired by established Mac Admin conferences and from years of local community meetups. Expect practical talks, shared experiences, and plenty of time to talk with other Mac Admins.More details coming soon, but feel free to reach out if you’re interested or want to know more. 🙂Website is https://macadmins-eu.org.LinkedIn page is https://linkedin.com/company/mac-admins-europe.Hope to see many of you there! ✌🏻

Hey all - Ran into a thing that has been mentioned before, but it was a year ago and a few Jamf Connect login versions ago. We are now up to 3.6 Had a user who had their Microsoft Authenticator switch from sending them push notification to enter a number to requiring her to enter the 6 digit number. She would get the Jamf Connect Login window and enter her MS login, PW and the 6 digit 2FA code. The Jamf Connect Login window would stay up, but load her profile page. She would also see an error that password needed to be at least 7 characters, and contain one number and one alphanumeric character. It took me a VERY long time (and a computer wipe) to figure out that it looks like the Jamf Connect login window is passing that 6 digit number to the OS for login instead of the users Password.  Once we reset her Authentication Methods in EntraID so that the push notification workflow returned, her login issues on her laptop went away. 

Due to changes being made by our network team we’re required to deploy a new Trusted Root Certificate within our Wifi Configuration Profile.  DigiCert are changing Root Certificates.What I’m encountering is even though I can successfully deploy the Certificate and Trust it within the Configuration Profile if I deploy more than one Root Certificate the Mac will not connect.I’m hoping that I can deploy the new certificate without impacting the existing wifi connection before Networks make the backend change.

A Read-only Friday post by William Smith Only those in IT would ever get it. My dad loved listening to a radio broadcaster named Paul Harvey. Wow could that man tell a story! (I’m referring to the radio broadcaster, but my dad knew how to draw a crowd of listeners too.) Paul Harvey ended his daily broadcasts with a segment called “The Rest of the Story”. He would generally start with a seemingly simple and banal story about something or someone. But as he told the story, the details would take on some life, and the tale would grow bigger until he revealed the one key element he’d been holding back that tied everything together. A really weak glue was of no use at all ‘til an office secretary found a use for it… “And that’s how Post-It Notes were invented!” Or an author was shaving one morning and thought of a story but for yea

Dear community,I am facing a major issue with our Jamf Pro environment.We are running Jamf Pro 11.21 On-Prem and have several working PreStage enrollments—until today.I had a device that was already upgraded to macOS Tahoe. After erasing the Mac, I started the PreStage enrollment. The macOS installation completed normally, and the device enrolled in MDM.However, after the Setup Assistant finished, Self Service never appeared, and only half of the expected configuration profiles were installed.I waited over 30 minutes, thinking it might be a timing or network delay, but nothing happened. I also tried: restarting the Mac running sudo profiles renew -type enrollment manually installing Self Service.pkg and jamf.pkg copied from a working machine Even after manual installation, the agent could not connect to the server.It looks like the Jamf framework does not install

Greetings all, We are trying to enforce screen lock time limits (which InfoSec wants), but when we do, it also enforces a particular screensaver module (which InfoSec doesn't care about in the least).  Some of our users don't like "Flurry" and want to set their own.  These two seem joined at the hip in the GUI.  Copilot had a suggestion using a script, but it didn't work for me. Does anybody have these two things functioning, but separately.  It doesn't seem like a big deal to me, but some of our users are really not happy about not being able to set their preferred screen saver.

If you’re not using any enrollment progress tool in your Mac Environment now, or if you’re shopping for a replacement, consider Jamf Setup Manager.   When exploring options, we wanted something easy to configure. Something we’d be able to set and forget. And if configurations needed tweaking later, it’d be easy to update.   I am lazy. There, I said it.   Enter Jamf Setup Manager (JSM).   Setup Manager is the best gift I gave myself this Holiday Season. The best part is that we pass this onboarding experience to our customers and technicians.   No heavy lifting. No scripting skills are needed. Just add these two ingredients and you’re on your way.   The Setup Manager Package

Hi all I have a fleet of Mac Pros all sitting behind a firewall. All traffic - IPs, ports have been allowed as per the Jamf documentation. All Macs can sync and restart however apps can't be deployed or updated. Am I missing something? I even have the entire APNS IP range allowed but still nothing. Any help or advice would be much appreciated

We are new to Jamf Now. WE have been experiencing issues with deploying apps to some of our phones. I have tried to re-enroll it, restore the phones, re-create the blueprint and create a different blueprint. I also updated the tokens.  Has anyone encountered this issue? If yes, would you tell me what troubleshooting steps did you do? 

Hi everyone, I'm deploying the Global Secure Access (GSA) client on macOS using Jamf, following the official Microsoft documentation:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/global-secure-access/how-to-install-macos-client The installation completes successfully, but on first launch, users are still prompted with the message:"Global Secure Access Client would like to add proxy configurations." Does anyone know how to pre-approve or automatically allow this proxy configuration request via a configuration profil

We have had a PolicyBanner installed on our fleet for several years.  We have not had an issue with it until users upgraded to 26.  When the banner pops after user login, the window is stretched to almost full screen, regardless of screen size or resolution.  Screenshot attached of my large screen monitor.I have tried editing the RTF file a few ways to change margins and it will change the text but does not affect how the window sizes.I have also tried changing Desktop & Dock > Windows to Prefer tabs to Always instead of Full Screen This screenshot shows after trying to change margin and text.  I can share another with all the txt centered and nothing on the right of the txt but empty white space.   Thoughts?  Here is the original screen 

Anyone running into an issue with the Shared Device SSOe profile failing to install on shared iOS devices? I set up the Intune integration with Jamf Pro for both shared devices and standard iOS devices. Standard iOS devices register with Microsoft just fine, but don’t actually perform SSO with the Microsoft apps but they do show as compliant in Entra. I had the Shared Devices registering for about two days and now after wipe, The “Install Device Compliance Shared Device Profile” command fails every time even with a different device. Previous Entra records have been removed. Any ideas of what I could try to fix it or where I can find more detailed logs? History of failed commands had nothing. 

Based on your feedback and a review of the potential impact of the Jamf Trust iOS/iPadOS 11.47.0 upgrade to your fleet, we delayed the rollout to allow additional time for preparation.Jamf Trust 11.48 is scheduled for release February 25, 2026 at 9:00 AM UTC. This update resolves the network connectivity issue that could affect devices running iOS/iPadOS 26.1 during the Jamf Trust update. This release replaces the previously paused 11.47.0 rollout.We continue to recommend updating devices to iOS/iPadOS 26.2 for the best experience. Only devices running iOS/iPadOS 26.2 or later will receive new versions of Jamf Trust, 11.48.0 included.For more details, please refer to the Jamf Nation community post: Action Required: Update Jamf Trust App on iOS/iPadOS 26
