We need to do some operations in a login screen, but when the user uses a WPA2-Enterprise network, the authentication to this network is only possible after the login process has already been completed.
Is there a way to change the network on login screen or a way to authenticate on the WPA2-Enterprise network before a completed login?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1 - Use a WPA2-Enterprise
2 - Set WPA2-Enterprise as Auto-Join/Principal
3 - Reboot the Machine
4 - On the logon screen it's impossible to authenticate on the enterprise network even then type the username and password.

just upgraded my local iPhone 15 to iOS 18 Beta 3, and I enrolled the device to MDM server.
Then ran EraseDevice command with ReturnToService as enabled. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/erasedevicecommand/command/returntoservice
MDM command request body:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

MDM executed the command successfully.
The device erased itself, and opened Hello Screen after few secs, but device did not went to the Home Screen, however same works fine on iOS 17.
Dear Mr. Cook,
I am writing to you today to urge you to take action to save the Apple Vision PRO and turn it into a revolutionary flight simulator. I believe that the Vision PRO has the potential to completely transform the world of flight simulation, but it needs your support to reach its full potential.
Unleashing the Vision PRO's Potential: A Game-Changer in Flight Simulation
The Vision PRO is a unique and powerful device that holds immense promise for delivering an unparalleled level of immersion and realism in flight simulation. However, current sales figures indicate that it is not yet reaching its full potential. I believe this can be attributed to several factors, including:
Limited Marketing and Promotion: The Vision PRO has not been effectively marketed to its target audience, comprising pilots, flight schools, aviation enthusiasts, and gamers.
Lack of Dedicated Flight Simulation Software: Currently, there is a scarcity of high-quality flight simulation software specifically designed for the Vision PRO.
Absence of Strategic Partnerships: Apple has not formed partnerships with major aviation or flight simulation companies to promote and develop the Vision PRO.
Transforming the Vision PRO into a Flight Simulation Powerhouse
I am confident that by addressing these issues, Apple can transform the Vision PRO into a resounding success. Here are some specific recommendations:
Invest in a Comprehensive Marketing Campaign: Apple should target its marketing efforts towards pilots, flight schools, aviation enthusiasts, highlighting the Vision PRO's unique capabilities.
Partner with Leading Flight Simulation Software Developers: Apple should collaborate with developers to create top-notch flight simulation software tailored specifically for the Vision PRO, maximizing its potential.
Forge Strategic Partnerships with Industry Leaders: Apple should partner with major aviation and flight simulation companies to promote and develop the Vision PRO, leveraging their expertise and reach.
A Call to Action: Unleashing the Vision PRO's Revolutionary Potential
I am convinced that by implementing these steps, the Vision PRO can become the premier flight simulator on the market, revolutionizing the way people train to become pilots, hone their skills, and simply enjoy the thrill of flight.
I urge you to give this matter your serious consideration. The Vision PRO is a truly exceptional product that has the potential to make a real difference in the world. With your support, it can reach its full potential and become a groundbreaking product.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Pascal
Hi Team,
We are planning to automate ABM export. We dont want to download export which contains device inventory for example, S/N, IMEI, Reseller ID, etc.
Is there any way to automate it or has Apple made their APIs available?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards!
I recall years ago that autoconfigure for email accounts worked in iOS Mail/macOS Mail.app when MacOS X Server was a thing. The protocol is supported by Outlook and Thunderbird and some other apps as well. Using WireShark, I can see there's some network activity from Mail.app when trying to get to the second step of adding a new email account. The most documentation I've been able to find online is making a mobileconfig file which works but is cumbersome in comparison to how it works with Outlook and Thunderbird. If there's any kind of documentation on autoconfigure for macOS/iOS, I'd like to see it so I can help with Virtualmin development team fix their implementation of autoconfigure/autodiscover to properly work with iOS/macOS.
Help anyone?
I implemented parents to manage their children's apps with FamilyActivityPicker.
Then, is there way to get child’s app list without FamilyActivityPicker?
Can we get more information about the state of profile-driven user enrollment in iOS 18?
The only official statement seems to be this post here on the forums and nothing more.
1 Year deprecation and removal during the beta cycle is usually not the way Apple does this stuff - UIWebView was deprecated for 6 years.
Nothing in the wording during the WWDC Session indicates this is going to be removed in iOS 18, and none of the documentations we could find mentions profile-driven user enrollment is being removed this year.
Could we please get an official answer stating that yes, this is being removed, and that it's not just a bug in the Beta cycle?
Hello, has anyone been able to update/restore devices to the iOS 18 beta with Apple Configurator?
I receive the error :
Failed to create new state machine for restore [com.apple.MobileDevice.MobileRestore – 0xFB1 (4017)]
The devices are stuck in recovery mode and I've done hard resets along with other steps like different cables, host reboot, etc. I've also tried to restore to iOS Release but I'm met with the same error.
When syncing newly added or modified devices in the Apple Business Manager (ABM) portal using the POST request to https://mdmenrollment.apple.com/devices/sync, we are getting an issue when the ABM server account has more than 1000 devices. The response consistently includes 1000 devices, with the ‘more_to_follow’ flag always set to true and the ‘cursor’ value changing. However, subsequent ABM syncs for other devices result in duplicate devices being included in the response, and the ‘more_to_follow’ flag never becomes false. As more_to_follow is always true, we try to hit api continuously.
Please refer this for sync API details which is causing issue: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/sync_the_list_of_devices
This issue appears to originate from the Apple ABM side. Any help would be of great use. Thanks in advance.
We want to set key-value pair (installation_token: xxxxx) into an app installed by MDM.
Formerly we could set the key-value using Settings MDM command like this.
<dict>
<key>Command</key>
<dict>
<key>RequestType</key>
<string>Settings</string>
<key>Settings</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>Configuration</key>

</dict>
<key>Identifier</key>
<string>com.cloudflare.cloudflareoneagent</string>
<key>Item</key>
<string>ApplicationConfiguration</string>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>
We can still use this for the apps installed withInstallApplication MDM command, however we cannot apply this configuration into the app using Declarative Device Management. When we try it, we got an error like this.

How can we work with managed application configuration with DDM?
I have been running ABM to synchronize devices for some time now, but in recent days, when using interface synchronization, the device's "assembly_assigned-by" field responded by the interface has changed. The official website should return "The email of the person who assigned the device." However, what I received was a string of numbers, such as 275xxxxxxxx. Some devices may change the field to email again when synchronizing, but unfortunately some devices will always have these numbers. How can I recover the email?

iPads managed by Apple Business Manager and an MDM tool (Microsoft Intune) are distributed to employees for use.
An employee forgot his iPad passcode and entered the wrong passcode too many times, resulting in his iPad being locked.
Since they are also disconnected from networks such as WiFi, passcode removal and wiping from MDM tools are not effective.
Is there anything else I can do other than put my iPad into recovery mode and initialize it?
Best regards.
In MDM device management, I called the device synchronization interface (Sync the List of Devices: https://mdmenrollment.apple.com/devices/sync), and the returned data device_assigned_by did not return an email address as described in the documentation, but returned a string of numbers. What's the situation? This situation only occurs on some devices, and other devices return email addresses normally. Is there any solution for this?
Hello,
I am testing Configuration Profiles' Passcode policy in an MDM environment. After setting the 'maxFailedAttempts' property to 5 and deploying the Passcode payload via MDM to iPhones, some iPhones are not wiped after exceeding 5 failed passcode attempts. Could you please advise on the possible reasons for this issue?
Devices affected: iPhone 11 (iOS 16.4.1), iPhone 12 mini (iOS 16.5).
We have currently a problem with devices managed by Intune repeatedly asking for a new lock code. The problem seems to be a bug in iOS with the interaction of Intune.
We have selected "Max PIN Age In Days: 0" for the setting. This has always worked so far. The PIN did not have to be changed as described in the documentation. From yesterday, however, every user was asked to change the PIN. This sometimes happened every minute.
The problem has affected 500 devices.
Is this a known bug?
Hello,
is there any plan to add a new service type for Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile to allow apps deployed via MDM on Organization owned devices to access local network without prompting end user on Sequoia ?
This would be very welcome, especially in education world where students are good at finding on how to block the tools they are supposed to use.
I created FB14540495 for reference.
Thanks !
I received an email today stating that my payment is on hold due to irregular activity. I haven't violated any rules, and I've noticed others have received similar messages. I immediately contacted support by phone, and the representative confirmed my account is in good standing. She asked me to forward the email for further investigation.
Email received:
"We noticed some irregular activity associated with your vendor number XXXXXXXX and have paused your earnings payments while we investigate. Once our review is complete, we'll determine if we can resume your payments."
Questions:
Has anyone else encountered this issue? If so, what steps did you take to resolve it, and how long did it take for payments to resume?
Wishing everyone a great day, and thanks in advance!
Is there any good LMS framework that can be easily integrated to develop educational apps.
It should have scoring, questionnaire, gamification , certificate generation etc.
Any framework as easy as few lines of code and good payment structure would be good idea.
Model: Apple TV 4K (3rd generation) Wi-Fi & Ethernet 128GB
I am an Apple Systems Admin for a school district. A contractor working on new buildings/upgrades for us purchased Apple TVs outside of our Apple account.
When attempting to add these Apple TVs to Apple School Manager and enroll them into our MDM (via Apple Configurator 2 version 2.17), i'm running into a few problems.
When inputting the Pair Code:
-Says “Pairing Failed (-402653161)”--this error code only takes me to Apple Forums that end up answerless
-But device still shows up under Paired Devices and in Configurator
On Step 3 of 4 when “Preparing Apple TV—Activating TVOS”
-An unexpected error has occurred with “Apple TV”.
The device is not connected. [ConfigurationUtilityKit.error – 0x25B (603)]--this error code also only points me to Apple Forums for Configurator problems regarding iPads
-only option is “Stop”
-Appears that Configurator is still working in the background
Click Stop (as it is my only option), then Apple TV then disappears from Configurator.
Devices appear to be wiping OS/reinstalling OS and then going back to factory default settings. They are not being added to our ASM account.
Any ideas?
