Thanks in advance for your input...Our current scenario: our newly purchased iOS/iPadOS devices are automatically enrolled into Jamf Pro and then go into a default group. This group has a relatively restrictive Configuration Profile that prevents users from adding an Apple Account. If the user needs a different configuration or apps on their device, they need to submit a form to the device management team. From there, the device mgmt team works with the user and so on. Since we’re in education, we’re dealing with a full gamut of needs, business apps, engineering, utility/infrastructure, scientific, entertainment, media, development...you get the idea. So, we can’t anticipate ALL of the apps users want beforehand.Questions: what is your organization's workflow for newly purchased iOS/iPadOS devices? And how do you communicate to end-users where to go for additiona

This was reported to us earlier this week. iOS 26.x appears to break or override applied JAMF content filtering profiles with the addition of an “Add Website to Allowed List” button that appears on blocked websites. Thankfully this only seems to apply when using a content filtering profile set to “Limit Adult Content” and not the more restrictive “Specific Websites Only” setting, but if you’re blocking websites with the former and a user navigates to a restricted site, they can just tap this button and it overrides the applied profile to grant them access. Getting A LOT of complaints from some of our buildings that students are exploiting this to access websites that had previously been blocked. Not sure what Apple’s thought process was in adding this button...

Students are using Performance Matters but are just accessing Google Lens. We can open a Chrome window and type the following in the address bar: chrome://flags and it opens a settings window where you can enable and disable features but we are looking for a way to add an XML file to Google Chrome in Jamf School for our iPads to disable Lens Overlay. I have seen this XML file but I’m not sure it’s written for Jamf School:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"><plist version="1.0">    <dict>        <key>LensOverlaySettings</key>        <integer>1</integer>    </dict></plist> Has anyone had success in disabling Google Chrome Lens in Chrome from Jamf School?

We are a school and deploy laptops to students starting in the 7th grade.  Administration would like to set it so that the computers lock between 10pm EST and 6am where the students cannot log into their device.  We have tried a few things but at best we can get the computer to lock but students just log back in.  Does anyone have a similar setup or suggestions on how to properly setup a curfew on an Apple laptop? For what its worth we are working with all Apple Silicon laptops. Thank you!

Environment: iOS 26 Jamf Pro with Apple School Manager (ASM) VPP token User Assignment licensing (not Device Assignment) Personal Apple ID (non-managed) Issue: Successfully accepted a VPP invitation this morning. Deleted the VPP user in Jamf Pro to troubleshoot an app assignment issue. Created a new VPP invitation and sent it to the same email/Apple ID.When clicking the invitation link on the device: Tap "Accept" Redirects to App Store Hangs with "Can't Connect to App Store" error Steps Taken: Confirmed App Store is accessible normally (can browse/download personal apps) Deleted and re-created the Jamf user with same email address Issue persists across multiple attempts Current State:

For test purposes, I have a very simple shell script. #!/bin/shkillall Dockexit 0A policy runs the script, and it’s available in Self Service. When I run it from Self Service, it works as expected (I can see the Dock restart itself). Hooray!However... (1)Self Service reports “Item Failed”, and (2)when I go to the Policy and check its logs, there’s no indication the Policy ever ran (status remains Pending).Is there a way to reset the Dock that Self Service won’t regard as a failure, and fail to log the Policy execution? 

Is there any equivalent application to Microsoft's AD Users and Computers but available for Mac OS X?Basically the only time given, my specific role, to access a Windows box or start-up a Windows VM is to unlock a users account on AD or to move/delete a computer object in the Mac OU in AD. Given those two specific requirements is there a Mac app for that (that is free if possible)? I have looked before into this and I could only find outdated apps or very expensive high-end server style Enterprise solutions. Thank you

I have had success with scripts to insert the auth code for SPSS in past but SPSS 30 will not apply code through script. Popup still comes up. Script that used to work was this one. I have tried few option using the SPSS instruction manual but no success. What's working for you all?

Hi Jamf Nation Team, We are currently working to deploy the Falcon Sensor in our system, but we need to monitor the sensor's status. Unfortunately, the Extension Attribute I was using is not gathering the necessary information. Could you please help me if you have any that I can use: Sensor Registration: Confirms whether the Falcon Sensor is correctly registered with the CrowdStrike cloud.Sensor Operational Status: Checks if the Falcon Sensor service is running correctly on the endpoint.Sensor Cloud Connectivity: Verifies that the sensor can successfully communicate with CrowdStrike’s cloud infrastructure. Thank you!

I have worked through paloalto's official support document which explains how to create a jamf policy to uninstall Global Protect. It say that the script will run with "superuser authority". However, it still prompts the user to authenticate for the removal of the extension. Is there any way to get around this prompt on the user side?

Apple Classroom on Teacher Macs in Jamf School - Possible without Managed Apple IDs?We're migrating from Jamf Pro to Jamf School. Previously had Apple Classroom working with Macs and iPads via ASM roster syncing from our SIS—no Managed Apple IDs needed.Current status in Jamf School:✅ Apple Classroom works on teacher iPads and student iPads ✅ Jamf Teacher app works on teacher Macs (shows rostered classes) ❌ Apple Classroom on teacher Macs won't load rostered classesTeacher Macs aren't receiving the Education Profile despite fresh enrollments. I suspect it's related to MDM-capable users, but can't confirm. Class data is clearly flowing (iPads get it, Jamf Teacher gets it), so it seems like a device-specific enrollment issue.Is Apple Classroom on teacher Macs possible in Jamf School without Managed Apple IDs?The solution seems tantalizing close based a on a checkbox still available in Jamf School -

 SummaryAn issue has been identified that can affect devices updating Jamf Trust while running iOS/iPadOS 26.1. This post is related to the second scenario described in our previous announcement regarding compatibility issues impacting Jamf Trust in iOS 26.1.Issue OverviewDevices running iOS/iPadOS 26.1 with Jamf Trust and On-Device Content Filter (ODCF) may experience loss of network connectivity when upgrading to Jamf Trust 11.47.0 or later whilst on unstable or poor networks. During the update, the installation may hang, causing device-wide loss of internet connectivity. Recovery requires a factory reset.This issue affects any app implementing the On-Device Content Filtering extension on iOS and is not specific to Jam

New and somewhat confused JAMF-user here, and thus: silly questions.I'm using Entra as my Cloud Identity provider and I'm trying to create a smart user group based on membership in an Entra-group (JAMF_KLA) in order to build configurations for said usergroups. But I cannot for the life of me get it to work (nor do I know if it's actually possible).Looked at the mapping of both the SUG and in the CIP-setup, and everything there looks like it should work. Can also do a test against various users, and it works (User that is in the Entra-group gets green checkmark, user that is not in group gets red checkmark). Which tells me that the lookup is working.I see that I can also add users from a Directory Service from the Settings-menu. However, is that only for admins/auditors? I see that there's an option for Enrollment Only. Does this mean that the imported users do *not* have access to the JAMF-console?

We have run into a situation where closing the lid on a Mac Book Pro or even just setting the device to sleep is resulting in a machine that cannot be recovered without holding down the power button.I’ve looked for changes that might be causing this but the only thing I changed (and have now disabled) was an extension attribute that was reporting PlatformSSO status.OS impacted are Tahoe, Sequoia and Sonoma generally on latest versions.If anyone has any clues on which logs might reveal why this is happening or to help understand what a fix might look like, that information would be gratefully received. 

Hello, looking for some help/advice.Has anyone successfully deployed the Dameware Remote Everywhere Agent?Does anyone have a working script they could share?We have created the bulk agent and have the ID, but no success.Thanks for any info.

I need help with standard user elevation as user should be able to forget the Wi-Fi networks as they required. in my case if it asks for admin credentials to forget the network.is there any privilege management feature in jamf?  

Hi everyone,I'm currently preparing to move about 500 devices from Jamf to another MDM. I've made sure all devices are updated to macOS and iOS/iPadOS 26 and have tested moving a few devices to confirm that it works without deleting them first.The question is, is there any way to see if they have been moved in Jamf? And if so, trigger a cleanup somehow?

Does anyone know if there is a to turn this setting off without admin credentials?Through terminal command or config profile? Thanks!

Evening All I have spent the best part off 3 months backwards and forwards with jamf support. Over why bootstrap tokens don't always get escrowed back to jamf pro during our enrollment process.My team off 3, have manual been through our 300 labs devices, to tidy up any machines that dont have a bootstrap token escrowed to Jamf. We did setup and extension attribute to try populate a smart group but this wasn't very reliable. It does seem this information isn't getting back to jamf during a inventory update.I'm still no closer in finding the root cause. As anyone else experienced this type of issue? I'm also after a script to create bootstrap token on the fly. As I'm moving onto sorting out our staff Devices next and don't want to recall them if I can help it.Thanks in advanceTom

We're excited to announce two new benchmarks have been added to Compliance Benchmarks in Jamf Pro to support Dutch government security requirements: NLMAPGOV Base – Establishes foundational security controls for Apple devices within Dutch government organizations, implementing essential protections aligned with the Government Information Security Baseline 2 (BIO2) requirements.NLMAPGOV Plus – Provides enhanced security controls for Apple devices in Dutch government environments, building upon the base protections with additional safeguards to meet elevated BIO2 compliance requirements and risk profiles.Both benchmarks align with BIO2, the mandatory standards framework for information security across all Dutch government organizations, ensuring unified risk-based controls in compliance with international ISO/IEC 27001:2023 and 27002:2022 standards and EU NIS2 Directive requirements. These benchmarks are avail

Our students are cheating on test using the Keyboard setting “Show math results”.  I created a ticket with Jamf but they told me the only way to fix this is to use Blueprints but we are not set up with SSO.  Is there  another way of fixing this issue.  Some very important state test are coming and our students are spreading the word on how to cheat.
