Hi all, I have been using a script that sets the Recovery Lock password on Silicon Macs without the correct Recovery Lock password already set using the following API https://JAMF_PRO_URL/api/preview/mdm/commands As mentioned here: https://learn.jamf.com/en-US/bundle/technical-articles/page/Recovery_Lock_Enablement_in_macOS_Using_the_Jamf_Pro_API.html However it looks like the /preview/mdm/commands has been deprecated, can someone confirm and is there another way to do it or can it only be done with PreStage now?

Updated to Jamf Pro 11.21 yesterday afternoon and have found that when enrolling iPads with a name set in Prestage and the “Enforce Mobile Device Names” option checked, the device record will have the checkbox unchecked when I click Edit on the general tab. I see 11.21.1 is out this morning, perhaps need to update again and see if this was silently resolved?
Hello, I have been receiving the error Unable to Decrypt Encrypted profile when I push the network profile to the MacOS devices. Now none of the MacOS devices connect with the office Wifi. Any suggestions. AD CS Connector Certificate seems to be fine.
A significant update to the practical and user-friendly approach to surfacing Mac health information directly to end-users via Jamf Pro Self Service Overview Mac Health Check provides a practical and user-friendly approach to surfacing Mac health information directly to end-users via Jamf Pro Self Service. Built using the open-source utility swiftDialog, the solution acts as a “heads-up display” presenting real-time system health and policy compliance status in a clear and interactive format. Administrators can customize the user interface using swiftDialog’s visual capabilities, making the experience both informative and approachable. The tool logs results for review, while not altering device configuration, and a new “Silent” Operation Mode makes Mac Health Check ideal for IT visibility without end-user intrusion.

I’m curious about your experiences deploying Self Service Plus alongside a Jamf Connect 3.x update. I’m currently testing this and have a policy set up to install both Jamf Connect 3.x and Self Service Plus via policy. However, I’m wondering if it’s better to just upgrade Jamf Connect and use the “Use Self Service+ as the default end user application” option directly from the Jamf Pro server instead. Has anyone tested or noticed any issues in the app’s behavior or reliability during deployment with each approach?
Hey, I’ve tried looking for this all over and found some partial solutions that don’t really work so I wanted to ask here. I’ve been asked to set up several iMacs to auto-log off or reboot after 30 minutes of inactivity AND (this is the kicker) delete all files on Desktop, Downloads, and Documents. I found the Configuration Profile Login Window setting to auto log-off but I’ve seen that if people left unsaved documents over it doesn’t work. It seems to me some scripting is needed here and that’s still a weak spot for me so I’m putting this out to this community in the hopes of some help. Thanks in advance!
I have created USB disabled policy and pushed over JAMF. which was success but I have noticed that through Android File transfer we are still able to send the confidential file to smart phones. is there any way to completely block file transfer to other devices like mobile phone.
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?
In iPadOS there is a new system app, Phone. But it doesn’t seem to be blockable using a Profile, since it doesn’t seem to be present in the list of Default Applications. Has anybody found the same issue? And, more importantly, a solution? Thanks in advance.
Trying to install Chrome for Mac using the app installer. When it installs, chrome will no allow me to update manually. If I manually install chrome, then there isn’t an issue. I do not have a configuration profiles loaded for chrome.
Heads up to my fellow Jamf community. We've been seeing iPadOS 15.8.4 iPads when reprovisioned can't be enrolled to Jamf School. This may affect Jamf Pro too. The exact error is "Failed to retrieve configuration". I reached out to Jamf support and they said they have been getting reports of this from others and that this has been observed across different MDM providers. Jamf reached out to Apple regarding this issue and this is exactly what they told me: Apple did get back to us just a bit ago, and they have identified the issue (they did not elaborate on what the issue was). The release is not ready yet though and at this time they couldn't give me an ETA on when that would release. For now I created an internal Jamf Product Issue so we can track customers and I have attached this case to that ticket (PI136109). Hopefully an update that fixes this issue will come out soon. Jamf did say that they could reproduce my issue but had mixed results as one test iPad had the issue but another
Hello everyone, I work as a system admin and have a user who already signed up for an apple id using their work email and now I cannot create an account for him within the DEP using that email address. Is there a way to convert or enroll the apple id so it falls under the DEP? Currently the error I'm getting is "This managed appled id has already been taken". Thanks! L
