Hi all,Has anyone else placed a block for tvOS 18 but updates are still occurring?In an environment of 600, soon to be almost 1,000 Apple TVs, we didn't set them up to not auto update due to at the time, Jamf's Update commands didn't work successfully in our testing.We want them to update, but not immediately.
Hello.Users are unable to sign in to Office 365 apps upon launch. The login window is blank. Logged in as admin with settings disabled, the login windows load without issue. Any ideas on what I’m missing?Thanks,

I am a complete Jamf novice. A third party organisation setup our environment.We have a Blueprint called Block USB applied to All Managed Clients. It has multiple policies (see screenshot). I want to make an exemption for one of these managed clients, but only for the USB blocking element, so the user can access a external hard drive. I want the rest of the policies to continue being applied.What’s the simplest, least risky way of achieving thing? Screenshot: https://ibb.co/2YR6Y1df Thanks
HelloHoping some point me in the right direction I have recently packaged Avid media composer all seems fine. Im trying to manage some of login items which live in system settings > general > login items.Have been able to use teams identifiers for most of them and thats worked ok. As anyone had experience of ones that seem to link to launchdaemons.Been trying get them lock down so they show “ The setting has been configured by a profile” I though a custom jamf json schema might work. Have had a go at creating one and pushing it out via config profile, but something isnt quite right.You cant use team id as it not signed is my understadning, not sure it helps that they come from undentified developers as well.Thanks in advanced
So with the concern of data being send to chatgpt, how do we disable Apple Intelligence and chatGPT integration using JamfPro (Cloud) in macOS 15.1?
Parallels Desktop 26 was recently released, but whilst attempting to deploy it to users using Jamf Pro I quickly identified that the traditional deployment method which Parallels are providing using their deployment package does not work beyond Parallels Desktop 20. And as Jamf also don’t provide an App Installer for Parallels Desktop 26, this lead me to look at alternative deployment methods. The result is that I have created a scripted process whilst will download & install the latest version of Parallels Desktop 26, then a license key is also fed into the script, the activation of Parallels Desktop 26 will also be performed. Below is the script that I want to share incase any other Jamf Pro admins are stuck with trying to deploy Parallels Desktop 26. #!/bin/bashcd "/Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp"# Update variables. These shouldn't need to change for each update dmgName="ParallelsDesktop.dmg" dmgLink="https://link.parallels.com/pdfm/v26/dmg-download/?experience=enter_key"
Hi,I recently set up a new Windows Distribution Point and am now trying to connect to it via the Jamf Sync App, but cannot get a connection. I see the DP in jamf sync, but it only asks for a password, not for a username. No matter what password I use I always get the error Message “Failed to load the … distribution point: cannotGetFileList” Unfortunately the new jamf support is pretty useless as there is not more option for me to communicate in english. All communication is automatically translated to german, but the translation is not that good so I often dont quite get what the supporter wants to tell me. Just english would be much better for me.
Mac Admins India Connect is more than just a meet-up, it’s a movement. This conference was built by and for the growing community of Apple IT professionals across India. This event is the country’s first dedicated space for those who manage, secure, and support Apple devices at scale in order to meet and learn from one another in a larger scale, one day event. We’re so excited and still buzzing from our inaugural event, and we’re excited to keep it going for next year! Why We Started This India has long been a powerhouse for Apple device management, with admins supporting businesses and schools not only locally, but across the globe.

The location is where I have previous Compliance Projects. I have tried different versions of the app and have the latest version. Any Help?
Hello all,I inherited a Jamf server running on CentOS, which I want to migrate to Ubuntu to fulfil system requirements.However, while restoring the database on the new server it throws an error: CREATE TABLE `os_update_process_manager_command_c ...

Hi all,I’m just about 100% sure this isn’t a Jamf issue, but wanted to see if anyone else had any thoughts. We are attempting to get Nexthink installed on our Macs through Jamf. I created a folder in /private/tmp/Nexthink and put the csi.app and the customer key.txt file there and created a pkg through Composer and uploaded it to Jamf. I created a very simple install script to deploy with the pkg file: #!/bin/bash/private/tmp/Nexthink/csi.app/Contents/MacOS/csi \ -address like.to.our.portalurl \ -tcp_port 443 \ -key "/private/tmp/Nexthink/Customer Key.txt" \ -use_assignment=true \ -ra_execution_policy=signed_trusted_or_nexthink \Nexthink installs and Jamf reports back that it completed with all the correct settings including the Engine IP address and Customer key. However, when looking at the local config.json file the customer key has added in a “\” character anytime there is a “/” character in the customer key (so it now shows \/), and causes it to not report in, if I view the l
I have a need to disable apps from auto updating temporarily.Despite the settings are in place, I see applications continue to auto update.Is this a bug in Jamf Pro?
Hello every one,We’re about to renew our AD CS certificates for the first time.

Is it possible to run the old (as long as its valid) and the new side by side for a while?
Today we released Jamf Connect 3.3.0.

To view the Jamf Connect release notes, see Jamf Connect App for macOS Release History.Resolved Issue [PI139049] Fixed: The identity provider authentication prompt in the Jamf Connect login window requires users to scroll if the Login Window Size (LoginWindowSize) setting is configured.

Hello,Looking for advice or a possible solution via JAMF for the following scenario:Have a bunch of iPAD’s in the field with multiple eSIMS and we are looking to have data occasionally flow over the secondary eSIM and switch back to the primary, possibly making this occur a few times per day/week, this would need to be automated.Possible or not without user intervention?
Hey All,Is it possible to change the timeout on a Jamf Cloud console session?We're on Jamf Cloud 10.42 using SSO to login to the console, if that matters.The main issue (among others), is that when performing a GSX lookup, the web session usually times out before the look up finishes.We have ~1400 workstations which takes at least 10-15 minutes to update, but more often than not results in a session timeout. I've tried creating a SMART group where there is no Warranty info for the device, but the only options are Warranty Expiration is before/after or within a certain # of days.It does seem as though if I open a new JSS tab in the same browser window and work in there while the GSX lookup is ongoing in the other tab, that the GSX lookup session will not timeout.I did check the SSO settings, but it only has a Token expiration time, which is not what I'm looking for. Thanks for any thoughts.Phil
Sometimes you ask your self if you’re thinking right or not. But in this case I’m rather sure my thinking is correct but Jamf doesn’t understand or doesn’t work correctly. :)I’m make a smart user group that lists all computers with architecture type arm64 and with some exclusions. Se bellow. Without the exclusions it gives me 929, with the exclusion it should give me 918 but gives me the same as without exclusions.Am I thinking wrong or is something wrong with Jamf???
I have logged on to Jamf Pro but the page is loading forever. Tried different browser but no luck.

Last month, we announced through this Tech Thoughts blog article that Jamf Nation will get an upgrade later this summer. Well, friends...the time has come! On Friday, July 4, Jamf Nation shifted from its current platform to a new space, and we couldn't be more excited. What you need to know about the migration Any new content published on Jamf Nation between JUNE 23 – JULY 3 will need to be re-posted to the new site after launch. (If you got your answer in that timeframe and don’t care that it’s on the new site, that’s fine too!) All content that was posted to Jamf Nation BEFORE JUNE 23 will migrate. No action needed! Yes, your profile information will migrate. Yes, your User Group information will migrate. Yes, your postings to the job board will migrate. It will ALL migrate. 😊 Improvements in the new space We’re excited for you to come in and see the new space soon! Warning...it will look and feel different, this is by design. This upgraded version of Jamf Nation w
How are people deploying Sopho's endpoint per macOS profiles? Are you creating smart groups for each OS and then assigning them to Sopho's endpoint profile for that OS? What happens when a user upgrades to another OS, do they get popups when old profile removes but does not have the new profile yet?
Hi, We are using Jamf to deploy Parallels to certain users.I guess that starting from Catalina it stopped working, it just fails. Installation failed. The installer reported: installer: Package name is Parallels Autodeploy Packageinstaller: Installing at base path /installer: The install failed. (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. An error occurred while running scripts from the package “ParallelsDesktop-15.1.1.pkg”.) When performing a manual install it asks for Downloads, Desktop and Documents access.Using the PPPC tool i've uploaded that config, but when opening it. The Documents access is not shown and cannot add it either.Could this be the issue? Anyone else having this issue?
