I'm trying to use DDM manager Safari Extensins in macOS Sequoia. I generate json and load it by mdm and ddm , but it doesn't seems to work. The json I loading is the following: { "Type": "com.apple.configuration.safari.extensions.settings", "Payload": { "ManagedExtensions": { "*": { "State": "AlwaysOn", "PrivateBrowsing": "AlwaysOn", "AllowedDomains": [], "DeniedDomains": [] } } }, "Identifier": "com.test.safari" } macOS Sequoia response is the following: { "StatusItems" : { "management" : { "declarations" : { "activations" : [ { "active" : true, "identifier" : "com.example.act", "valid" : "valid", "server-token" : "5cc191206d1b1933" } ], "configurations" : [ { "active" : true, "identifier" : "com.test.safari", "valid" : "unknown", "server-token" : "29d3ec5ab48e6367" } ], "assets" : [ ], "management" : [ ] } } }, "Errors" : [ ] } you can see, The "valid" value is always "unknown" at ""identifier" : "com.example.act", but "Errors" is empty, Safari app don't load extensions , the SafariExtensionSettings" ddm don't work, Is there anything wrong with "SafariExtensionSettings" json? or how can I debug this bug .

I have 5-6 mac minis connected to my windows server 2022 and the accounts that connect to the mac are network account. How do I block the network users from accessing or using certain apps like terminal and passwords?

Is there a way to restrict an end user from potentially editing a supervised device through Apple Configurator? It seems that Apple Configurator allows to make undesirable changes to a supervised device, like removing profiles, which would in turn be detrimental to the intended experience on the device, if a user would actually be able to perform such changes.

I have a in-house delivered app, I updated certificates and delivered the app before expiring, inviting users to update. after certificates expiration people who did not update now must remove the app loosing personal data, and download it again, but app crashes. I know that since iOS 18 in order to trust again an in-house identity, restart is required. What I need to know, is if there is some documentation where is explained the following: if I remove the only app delivered by in-house enterprise profile I have on a customer device, via home, long time tap gesture, "remove the app" then I install again the app, the profile reappears under "VPN and device management" and results already as "trusted" instead if I remove the app directly from settings > VPN and device management, when I re-install the app VPN and device management reappears and developer/app is not trusted, in it asks me to trust again the developer and during the operation, restarts the device, asks me device code and so on. so, my final question is: since it is clear to me that there is a difference between two removal methods, where is this logic described? Is it only present for in-house distribution?

Is there or will there be an update to the depsim and vppsim simulator tools? The current version is significantly out-of-date in terms of features and fails to start due to the developer not being verified (ironically).

Managed iOS/iPad devices are struck with no network under below conditions Enrolling a Supervised iOS device Send InstallProfile command with AppLock payload (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/applock) Now when the above managed device loses network connection with MDM server due to unknown network issues - the device is out of contact with MDM server and device is locked. Since such AppLock payload installed devices are placed in remote locations, it becomes difficult for Admins to recover such devices with no network connectivity. The devices have to be brought in from remote location and recover them. Under such conditions, it would be better to allow the end user to change the Network configuration manually to reconnect the device with MDM server. This option can also be allowed only when the device can’t ping MDM server.

Main Issue We are experiencing an issue where iOS devices become unresponsive when attempting to shutdown or reboot from the lock screen while locked into Single App Mode via MDM or Apple Configurator. Steps to Reproduce: Start any iOS device. Use Apple Configurator or an MDM solution to enable Single App Mode. Wait for the device to lock into the specified app. Lock the device so that it goes to the lock screen. Hold the Power button and Volume Up button until the shutdown/emergency screen appears. At this point, the device becomes unresponsive. After approximately 30 seconds, the message "Guided Access app unavailable. Please contact your administrator" appears. The device is now frozen, and the only way to recover is to force restart it using Apple's forced restart method (Apple Support Link). Additional Issue: Additionally, we observe that when using an app in Single App Mode, attempting to reboot the device and canceling the reboot prevents any subsequent reboot attempts until a force restart is performed. Steps to Reproduce This Behavior: Lock the iOS device into Single App Mode. Use the app normally. Attempt to shut down the device by holding the Power and Volume Up buttons. The shutdown/emergency screen appears as expected. Cancel the shutdown by tapping "Cancel." The device returns to the lock screen. Swipe up to return to the app. Attempt to shut down the device again using the same method. Nothing happens—the shutdown screen no longer appears. The only way to reboot the device now is through a forced restart. This appears to be a bug in Single App Mode behavior, potentially related to Guided Access restrictions. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is this the right place to report this issue? or should I report it elsewhere? I have more videos and material showing how to reproduce this issue if needed.

Hello everybody, We are trying to configure Device APN settings by sending IOS device configuration profiles through OTA. Please refer below url for details which we are following : https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/iPhoneOTAConfiguration/Introduction/Introduction.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009505 We’ve encountered an issue where the APN (Access Point Name) settings are not populating correctly on iOS devices, even though we are sending the configuration via our Device Management Center (DMC) and the configuration message is being pushed correctly over the air (OTA). Path to the APN fields: Settings > Mobile > Mobile Data Network > APN Tested iOS version: 17.3, 17.5, 18.2, 18.3 Configuration message received: Configuration message installed: APN fields are empty: Could you give us any suggestions ? Thank you very much.

Hi there, I am trying to create an IPsec policy for remote access for iOS devices. Is the full updated list with all the settings, which are supported? I could only find this article: https://support.apple.com/de-de/guide/deployment/depdf31db478/web But I am sure it's not updated: Authentication Algorithms: HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA1. Same for DH Groups 2-5

Hello We have devices setup with in ABM and managed with Intune. Having only ever setup shared iPad's, we have a new request with managing iPhone's. The customer wants the iPhone's managed, but users enabled to purchase apps for the app store using their own credit card (or Apple ID) These are not BYOD devices and federated sign is not an option at this time. Can this be done with example User affinity profiles? Many thanks

Hi, I have a couple of questions about how to proceed and prepare the implementation for the DeviceLock MDM command for macOS in a secure and proper manner. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/device-lock-command In documentation "PIN" is "(string) The six-character PIN for Find My. This value is available in macOS 10.8 and later." - is this the PIN that is used to unlock the device? Is there any video online that I can see how the process would look like for the end user with locking and unlocking a device? What should be done before sending a DeviceLock command? What should be done to safely test the command without bricking a device. How to unlock a device that was locked with a DeviceLock command? Is there any Unlock command or can the user unlock device with the provided PIN earlier? Thank you for any help!

Is the possibility of programmatically recovering the enrolled email address associated with an iPad. We are currently working on a project that requires us to retrieve this information for our enrolled devices. Could you please provide guidance or documentation on how we can achieve this programmatically? Specifically, we are interested in any APIs or frameworks that Apple provides for this purpose, as well as any necessary permissions or configurations that need to be in place.

I have created a configuration profile which basically just turns off notifications for Shortcuts app but I am unable to install it on my iPhone as I am getting the following error “This profile can be installed on a supervised device only” can someone please help me with this? Would also appreciate if you have another way to turn off shortcuts notifications permanently since when I turn it off via screen time it keeps turning itself ON every couple of days.

We'd like to determine if there is a configuration declaration that is active on a device as part of a predicate. The current logic (based on the WWDC 22 session) is: SUBQUERY(@status(management.declarations.configurations), $declaration, ($declaration.@key(identifier) == "com.abc.declarationname" AND $declaration.@key(active) == true)).@count == 1 The goal is that if the declaration is active, then a predicate should evaluate to true. This query does not appear to be working. Should we be able to use @status(management.declarations.activations) in a predicate? If so, what are we missing to attempt to determine if the declaration is active? If I search the existing status objects that are sent from the device, it is showing as active in the status channel.

I have an issue with my MDM setup. The Push notification that installs and updates configuration profile in the device is no longer working. It was working before Apple developer account got expired we renewed our apple developer account and then retried and we got the device enrollment working just fine. Now when we are updating configuration profile and MDM server is supposed to notify the device using push notification, this is the part where its not working. Are the certs faulty now since the account was expired? Would just renewal of the Push cert work? Will I have to setup the certs all over again? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
