Since the release of the Safari 10 update, we've encountered a strange issue where a small handful of clients will no longer open the browser. Nothing in the logs and not even a single bounce in the dock when clicked. It occurs under all users on the...

In your 1:1 schools, what are you guys doing for end of year processes? I'm on the 3rd year of our deployment at our middle school and I followed the process of simply wiping/updating each device at the end of the year. At the start of the new school...

I noticed in the JSS that you can add AirPrint printers as a payload in configuration profiles but I can't seem to find much documentation on this. On a test profile, I configured AirPrint with the IP address of our Printopia server as well as the re...

If you "Search GSX" with the serial number of the unit, you'll see the following prompt: You can also have the user's log in to iCloud.com, look at Find My iPhone and drop it out from there. It might be a good process to have the help desk do that ea...

Not sure how it works for Enterprise, but in Edu we can call directly to AppleCare and do mail-in repairs. It's a lot more convenient than running to the Apple Store, especially if you have a lot of volume. You can also set up mail in repairs directl...

GSX will warn you if you look up the device. Also, out of curiosity, why not call them in to AppleCare and save the trip? When they process the repair, they'll also see if it's locked.

You can virtualize macOS via VMware Fusion easily, a high-spec'ed Mac Pro should be able to handle what you're trying to do. IIRC, ESXi is also supported on the Mac Pro, not sure if it supports macOS guests though.
