Greetings and salutations, I'm wondering if anyone is deploying the Citrix Receiver iOS app with their Citrix server "pre-populated" so that it is already setup when a user opens it for the first time. Is anyone doing this now and may I ask how? I'm having trouble figuring this out at the moment. Thanks!

Hello,I used the Study Guide from Apple and turned the sample questions into a flash card deck available at this link:https://www.brainscape.com/p/4IWFX-LH-CLKGD For reference, the study guide can be found at this link:https://training.apple.com/content/dam/appletraining/us/en/2023/documents/Apple%20Device%20Support%20Exam%20Prep%20Guide.pdf  I plan on creating more content on my own as time allows for it.

Hello everyone,I would need a little help from the scripting gurus out there to create an Extension Attribute to gather screensaver's "askForPassword" status in inventory for 10.10.x/10.11.x clients.The below works for "IdleTime" but not for "askForPassword"... (The domain/default pair of (/Users/username/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver, askForPassword) does not exist) #!/bin/sh CONSOLE_USER_NAME="$(/usr/bin/stat -f "%Su" /dev/console)" idleTime=`sudo -u $CONSOLE_USER_NAME defaults -currentHost read com.apple.screensaver idleTime` echo "<result>$idleTime</result>" although defaults read com.apple.screensaver askForPassword works locally from Terminal and as an ARD unix command sent as the logged userWhat am I missing?Many thanks for your help!Carlo

Hi guys Has anyone been able to setup an office 365 account via an email variable in the mobile device app configuration box? e.g. the iPad Microsoft word app. Is it even possible? Any help or guidance would be awesome.

As some students have installed IOS 16.2, they now have access to Freeform. I want to place the app in our Apple folder for all of the students, which was created using the layout profile in jamf school.However, Freeform hasn't yet appeared in the internal apps section in jamf school, so I don't have the ability to currently place it in any folder of my choosing. Is there anything I can do to get freeform into jamf school or is it just a case of waiting?Any help would be much appreciated.Thanks

Hello y'all. I was just recently hired by a small (less than 500 k-12) students to manage their new 1:1 technology program. They had purchased 255 MacBooks, 180 iPads, and 60 Apple TVs. They also purchased Jamf School "at the recommendation of Apple." We finished deploying devices to students and teachers today, and after the 7th phone call about a student forgetting their local account password, I realized that Jamf School was extremely limited in comparison to Jamf Pro with regards to MacBooks.So, my questions.1: Is it possible to upgrade from jamf School to Jamf Pro without re-enrolling devices?2: If not, is there a 3rd party software we can deploy on top of Jamf School that will allow us to manage user accounts? I'm the first IT staff to be hired, so I tried explaining the limitations to the superintendent, and they are open to discussions about upgrading should it be available. I'm just realizing how insecure and unmanageable our MacBooks are at this point.

Hello Jamf family!!! Since being certified in 100, life happened and my job required more of me so I haven't been able to really practice and sharpen my skill set or grow the way that I would love to. What are the best tools to use so that I may practice and get more hands on training? I'm interested in truly growing. Thank You in advance for any and all tips and advice.

Hello, Is there any way to update a specific app on specific devices? For example, I have an app running on 44 devices but I only want to update that app on a small portion of the 44 devices. Is there anyway to do that?

This one has me stumped. In the past when I've needed to run a bash script as the logged in end user I've simply used something along the lines of:userName=$(stat -f %Su /dev/console) sudo -u $userName -H bash -c "jamf recon"This method seems to still work just fine IF I manually call the policy (jamf -policy) or manually initiate an inventory update (jamf recon) but when it's called with the recurring policy action or daily recurring inventory action it fails, and seems to run as root. So:Logged in as sjobs, run 'jamf -policy' = Success, policy executes, relevant lines will successfully run as sjobsLogged in as sjobs, run 'jamf recon' = Success, EA executes, relevant lines will successfully run as sjobsLogged in as sjobs, Mac is not asleep or unattended, recurring policy trigger occurs in background = Failure, policy executes, relevant lines run as rootLogged in as sjobs, Mac is not asleep or unattended, recurring inventory trigger occurs in background = Failure, EA executes, relevan

Hi,We are trying to enable Bluetooth option for authorized or allowed Bluetooth headsets and wanted to block other services. Please help us on providing the solution to enable in JAMF Pro. We dont find relevant document in Jamf website.

Anyone deploying Beyondtrust with PPPC config ?I have a really strange issue. I deploy a PPPC config for beyondtrust for accessbility enabled and Full disk access. First time when connecting to a jump client it prompts the user to activate screen recording. User go in and enable screen recording and mac prompt for quit and restart jump client to activate screenrecording, which is done.However, the jump client is not  comming up and no icon in the top bar and when checking the the device is also offline in rep console. If I manual unload and load beyondtrust lanchagent it comes back up - but not something users can doIf I however, do NOT deploy any PPPC client and users manually have to activate accessibility, Full disk access and screenrecording it works. I have also tried just to add accessibility or Full disk access in the PPPC to see if it is one or the other that gives the issue, but the issue stays.So PPPC profile is a no go overall to get this working it seems. Any one seein

Hi all. Has anyone had any experience with the fontrestore default command to clear out non-standard fonts? Seems to work OK on OSes up to Mojave and then seems broken for me in Catalina and above. The command is:fontrestore default ...and usually results in this or similar output after asking for authentication:testMac:~ username$ fontrestore default These fonts are not part of the default system install. They have been removed to 'Fonts (Removed)': /Users/install/Library/Fonts/Skia.ttf /Users/install/Library/Fonts/SnellRoundhand.ttc /Users/install/Library/Fonts/Songti.ttc /Users/install/Library/Fonts/StencilStd.otf /Users/install/Library/Fonts/STIXGeneral.otfHowever on Catalina I get:username@testmac ~ % fontrestore default unable to create '/Users/username/Library/Fonts (Removed)' (1 -- Operation not permitted) The installed fonts are awesome. No problems found.I checked that Terminal has full disk access but still get the above failure, even though I know th

Hello,I'm currently trying to send out VPP invites to numerous staff members who for whatever reason never initially got one when they were either imported into Jamf school via Apple School Manager or manually created a number of years ago now. Some teachers need specific ibooks pushed out to their iPads and I'm aware that books can only be distributed to Apple IDs, which is why I'm trying to send out these VPP invites to them. The staff members receive the invite, which then prompts them to sign into iTunes to accept the invitation, but when they try to log in it says 'Your Apple ID Can't Be Used in This Store. This Apple ID is associated with Apple School Manager.'Any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

Hello - Happy New Year! I have been looking for a script of "auto delete files once the device has restarted" I found this script but it seems not to be working..  # Fetch the target user if desired, otherwise use the currently logged in user. if [ "$4" != "" ]; then TargetUser=$4 else TargetUser=$3 fi echo "Target user is $TargetUser." # Delete common user spaces of the targetted user. rm -Rf /Users/$TargetUser/Desktop/* rm -Rf /Users/$TargetUser/Documents/* rm -Rf /Users/$TargetUser/Downloads/* rm -Rf /Users/$TargetUser/Applications/* rm -Rf /Users/$TargetUser/.Trash/* exit 0  

Hi All, I'm looking to do something clever, but my scripting knowledge is pretty limited. I want to create a script which pops a dialog box up on screen with a few options to select from: LondonAtlantaHong Kongetc. The option select would then install the relevant computer policy via a trigger. I want to use to this for RescueAssist to install the correct package depending on Office location when building the laptop. Cheers,Steve

Hello all.I am working on getting a project to upgrade Macs to Ventura (or Monterey if they wont support Ventura) and I am having trouble. I have reviewed a number of posts on Jamf Nation and setup what others seem to mention works. However, I am not able to get it working and I am hoping someone can help me understand what I am missing. Intel Macs update w/o issue but M1s will not update and error with the "must be volume owner" error.I have created a policy to install, erase-install and dialog packages, and then start the erase-install with the --reinstall --current-user --depnotify switches using dialog as the prompt. The notification pops up to start the update then I get the error regarding volume owner. I also reviewed the Apple document https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/use-secure-and-bootstrap-tokens-dep24dbdcf9e/web and it appears our keys are escrowed. We do bind our Macs and use mobile accounts and I am wondering if that is the issue.I am by no means a Mac or J

Hello Everyone,I am pretty new to JAMF so forgive me if I am not using terms correctly. I work at a college and we have Logic Pro installed on 15 2020 M1 Mac Minis. We recently were hit by a blizzard, a pipe bust, and flooded that lab. Now those machines have been lost due to water damage. Naturally we are trying to find an alternative set up with different machines. I need to free up those license and apply them to different machines. Currently, we apply these licenses via the "Assign Content Purchase in Volume" option (as opposed to the VPP codes). Is there a way, using JAMF Pro, that I can strip these licenses from the old machines and apply them to new machines?Can I just go to Mac Apps-> Logic Pro -> Scope and remove the broken machines to free up licenses? We are just a bit unsure and I don't want to make matters worse by just clicking around and seeing what happens.Let me know what you think!-Matt

Hey Jamf Nation,In Jamf Pro 10.35 we announced the deprecation of Basic authentication in the Classic API scheduled for a future release of Jamf Pro (https://docs.jamf.com/10.35.0/jamf-pro/release-notes/Deprecations_and_Removals.html). We received some great feedback from the community, and there were some questions around why we chose to make this change. I’d like to address those here.  The change in authorization mechanism in the Classic API was an effort to quickly mitigate the threat of brute force attacks against Jamf Pro instances. Today, the Classic API is the main target for attackers executing brute force attacks to attempt to gain access to a Jamf Pro instance. By using the same authorization mechanism as the newer Jamf Pro API, we're able to funnel all auth requests through a small number of endpoints that we can rate limit, without limiting every API request. We know that a change like this causes additional work for customers and partners to update API

Is this still a download option? I've used all my Google-fu up on this one.
