Auto Update

Erhm, what application(s) are you referring to? There has to be hundreds of apps that have auto update functionality, as well as the OS updates themselves. It would help to know which one you mean.

What he said...
Every application outside of the Apple ones (and even some of those) does it differently.

Same as the others from me I'm afraid.

In most cases you're looking for a key in a preference file that you can control with a custom configuration profile. There are some apps that don't follow Apple's guidelines (such as Flash) that you have to do other ways.

@JKnightley what app is it?

Oh. NVM, I see it's VLC.

Try Extingquish from @Banks.

It can create a config profile that overwrites the VLC Sparkle Updaters UpdateFeedURL.

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the confusion, yes i was referring to VLC Media Player.

I created the discussion from the third-party products page for VLC, I guess this was the wrong way ??

I was using composer to capture the files which were being modified but could not see the file i needed.

Thanks

@JKnightley here's a link to our VLC mobileconfig that suppresses the update prompt and also the metadata sync popup that appears from time to time.

You can upload it straight into the JSS.
