A Bold Leap Into AppleIt was the summer of 2024 when we were asked to do something our company had never done before. We were going to introduce MacBooks into an environment that had always been 100% Windows. Naturally, questions started flying. How would we manage them? What tools would we need? And, most importantly, how could we ensure the experience was seamless for our users? The hardware part was easy. We knew we could purchase them from Apple anytime. So, the MacBooks were purchased and ready to go, eagerly awaiting their release into our environment. The real challenge was management and integration. After speaking with our team and several vendors, we made our decision: we decided on Jamf. Paperwork signed, onboarding scheduled, and a new chapter began.One Year Later: A Transformation We Didn’t ExpectFast-forward to October 2025, about a year plus, and what a journey it’s been! We’ve faced challenges, learned a ton, and grown stronger as a team. Looking back, we couldn’t have

Is there a trick to removing “information” notifications?I have 25 of them now, everytime I manually refresh all devices, I end up with one.I can’t mark them as resolved (the whole thing just freezes / does nothing), and I can’t delete them because they aren’t marked as resolved.Some of them date back a couple of months now.

I have a TV app I would like to prevent from updating, but when I try to uncheck the boxes regarding auto updates they are greyed out and fixed to checked: Did I enforce that somehow for all apps, or is there a way I can uncheck the box to automatically force app updates? 

I know that you can push WebClip profiles to shared iPads using the user deploy method but I can’t seem to get it working while using Shared iPads in Guest mode only. Has anyone been able to get WebClips sent to Shared iPads using the anonymous guest logins? I have tried every way I can think of and nothing seems to work.

Hello, maybe someone can help me. The iPads are linked to Apple School Manager and JAMF School MDM. I can see the iPads in JAMF School, add location and profile, but nothing happens on the iPads themselves. During setup, it keeps asking me to log in with my Apple account; it doesn't show up as a managed iPad.Here's what I'm doing: I'm using Apple Configurator 2.- Connect the iPad to my MacBook, select the country and language, connect to Wi-Fi, and activate it.- Then I prepare the iPad using the Configurator.- In Apple School Manager, I assign the JAMF MDM instance.- In JAMF School, I assign the location and profile.- The Configurator then sets up the iPad, resets the system, and restarts it.- On the iPad, I select the country and language again and connect to Wi-Fi.- It says "Registering iPad."However, it doesn't say "This device is being remotely managed." Instead, I can click through the setup process until I get to the Apple account login.``` The strange thing is, one iPad is onlin

Here is a return to service script we use for resetting all our retail devices nightly if you don’t have access to jamf routines. We run this as a scheduled task from a windows server. API permissions on the account i’m using for this: View Return To Service Configurations, Update Mobile Devices, Read Mobile Devices, Read Smart Mobile Device Groups, Read Static Mobile Device Groups, Delete Return To Service Configurations, Send Mobile Device Remote Wipe Command, Edit Return To Service Configurations, Send MDM command information in Jamf Pro API import requests, json, osfrom datetime import datetime# =========================# Config# =========================JAMF_URL = ""CLIENT_ID = "" # API Client IDCLIENT_SECRET = "" # API Client SecretGROUP_ID = # Smart Group ID you want to RTSDRY_RUN = False # ⚠️ Change to False to actually send RTSLOG_FILE = r"C:\Jamf Scripts\RTS.log" # Where to write logs# =========================# Helpers# =========================def l

So we using Jamf School and it works great most of the time. We use Jamf Teacher and Apple Classroom in our schools, teachers use Macbook Air and the students Ipad gen 9.Now I have one colleague with a problem I havent seen before. Everything works fine with Jamf Teacher, classes, groups, add apps, lesson templates no problem. But Apple classroom dosen´t works at all. No classes showing at start screen, only the option to create classes manually. Anyone seen this problem?

Hello. When we first started using RTS, in our presages, the device would change its name to the one designated in the PreStage. Now when we do RTS on an iPad, the previous name is retained. This broke a smart group controlled config profile installation (and uninstall) that we use during our enrollment process.Is this a feature or bug? The Global settings for re-enrollment makes no mention of device name retention or deletion.

This is a minor thing, but I’m trying to limit the amount of unnecessary popups that people are exposed to when logging in to our lab machines and I was wondering if there’s a way to set the “Welcome to Jamf Connect” splash screen that comes up when you log in to be off for all users? I know you can check a box to say not to display it again after the first time, but I’d rather be able to just set it to never show up.I thought the option in Jamf Connect Configurator to “Show welcome window” controlled this, but I have it unchecked and the welcome window still shows.

I am experiencing problems when trying to install apps on devices with iPadOS 26. It works fine on 18.6 and older. The error I am getting is "A TLS error caused the secure connection to fail." It works fine on mobile hotspot, so it has something to do with our corporate network and the changes that Apple made with iPadOS 26.Is anyone else experiencing these problems as well?

Currently pulling my hair out with Google searches and useless tutorials. It looks easy with PreStage Enrollments, but unfortunately I have iPad that were bought before setting up Apple Business Manager. Is there a way to get shared iPads to work with manually enrolled iPads or a way to apply a PreStage profile to a manually enrolled iPad? I am using Jamf Pro non-k12. Thanks

Hi,We have several iPhones that are listed in Apple School Manager and assigned to the Jamf School portal. However, when we attempt to enroll the devices from the iPhones, we receive an error stating: "Access blocked, does not comply with Google policy."We are not facing this issue with iPads or Mac devices — only iPhones are affected. As far as we are aware, there are no active policies set in our Google Workspace that would block enrollment.Do you have any idea what might be causing this issue?  

We recently upgraded from Jamf Connect Login 3.3 to 3.5 to fix a keychain popup bug from earlier this month:This had the unintended consequence of breaking the “password sync” feature of self service +:Clicking the link to “Sync password” leads to a greyed out credential screen. This screen contains the correct email address and presumably correct password.The “change password” feature of self service plus seems to work, the local password and idp password will match afterwards, but self service plus doesn’t recognize them as being synced.Initially we assumed it was because we did not update configuration profiles to match when deploying 3.5, however after some testing even valid new config profiles seem to result in the same behaviour, despite OIDC and ROPG tests working in the configuration app.Has anyone else seen the same issues in the past week or two?IDP: Microsoft Entra****************************macOS: Tahoe 26.1****************************JamfConnect:MenubarVersion: 2.13.0Buil

I’m looking to add an additional MDM solution to our devices in Apple Business Manager.  With the release of OS26 (Tahoe) it appears now that devices enrolled in Apple Business Manager can use ABM Migration to change the Assigned MDM server “on the fly” without having to re-enroll the device.  I’m testing this, but it doesn’t appear to be doing anything with the device I’ve moved to a different MDM server.  A quick check seems to indicate that this feature MIGHT need to be enabled in our Jamf Pro account.   Has anyone else had this issue or know how to do this?

On the Jamf School dashboard, I can see the 6 most active users. I’d like to know if there is a way to see who actually uses their iPad. I introduced Jamf School Teacher, Student, Class Assigner, and Apple Classroom this year. I’d just like to see if there is a way for this. The number 1 teacher has used her iPad 2200 times, the other is 1100, 3rd place is a little over 200. The rest are under. We are a Google district for majority devices.Thanks! 

Hi Everyone,Ask for your help if there is a script or payload in configuration profile that can remove Wi-Fi setting in Control Center. Thank you.

We use Cisco Secure Client. It has been deployed and works great but one thing bugs me, and that is as a managed login item, it starts windowed. I was looking for a way to have the application start as a background process. If there was a global way to do it, or if I’d need to start the application another way. Thanks!

Hello. I don’t understand how to buy Jamf Protect.When I go to Jamf Protect and click “Request trial” it takes me to a page where it seems I’m registering for Jamf not Jamf Protect. I’m already enrolled to Jamf Now and I deployed Jamf Protect to the devices but I don’t see any reports/alerting and so on for Jamf Protect in Jamf Now interface.   So my question is , how do I buy only Jamf Protect and integrate it into Jamf Now or how do I get visibility on Jamf Protect from Jamf Now interface as is? Thanks kindly in advance.
