I have private certificate authority. Root > Intermediate > Leaf. When I install the Root Certificate, it shows in Settings > General > About > Certificate Trust Settings in iOS 18.1.1 However, when I install the Intermediate Certificate (including the CA Bundle), the Intermediate CA Certificate is not shown in the Certificate Trust Settings. All my leaf certificates are issued by the Intermediate CA. Is this a bug? If not, how can this be solved? TIA!

Hi Apple Community, If a macOS Device is FileVault Encrypted, We are using the keys FDE_HasInstitutionalRecoveryKey, FDE_HasPersonalRecoveryKey from SecurityInfo to know the Device Encryption Type. But Some times rarely we get FDE_Enabled as true but both the above mentioned keys as false Also we get SecurityInfo Response patterns like these only if FileVault is enabled in Device with iCloud as option to unlock the disk Can we confirm this pattern or is there any way to know if device is encrypted with options other than Personal / Institutional Types <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>CommandUUID</key> <string>SecurityInfo</string> <key>SecurityInfo</key> <dict> ...... ...... ...... <key>FDE_Enabled</key> <true/> <key>FDE_HasInstitutionalRecoveryKey</key> <false/> <key>FDE_HasPersonalRecoveryKey</key> <false/> ...... ...... ...... <key>Status</key> <string>Acknowledged</string> <key>UDID</key> <string>..............</string> </dict> </plist>

Hi Apple Community, I have been Testing with key allowAccountModification in macOS Restriction Payload and found some contrasting behavior In macOS 14, macOS 15.1 in both of the OS Version when allowAccountModification is set to False it restricts adding new Account in System Settings and this is expected behavior How ever things are contrasting and not going as expected in the below situation When macOS 14 Version has 2 profiles for Restriction Payload one with allowAccountModification set to False and another with allowAccountModification set to True it restricts adding Apple Account When macOS 15.1 Version has 2 profiles for Restriction Payload one with allowAccountModification set to False and another with allowAccountModification set to True it allows adding Apple Account I remember when restrictions payload keys are contrasting across different profile Apple Uses the most restrictive one among them. But in macOS 15.1 the behavior is unexpected. Is this a issue in 15.1 and is there any list of macOS versions which shows this unexpected behavior

Hi,team: I know that the MDM system extension configuration parameter RemovableSystemExtensions can only be valid after macOS12+, but can I also use this parameter between macOS10.15-12? Even if he is ineffective. Will this cause any problems with the system. I want to use the same MDM configuration file for the devices I manage, which have systems between macOS10.15-15.I hope to receive your confirmation

Hi,team: I have configured SystemExtensions and WebContentFilter for supervised devices through mdm, and set NonRemovableFromUISystemExtensions in SystemExtensions, but found that my network filter cannot be deleted in macOS10, macOS11 and macOS12, but it can still be turned off by selecting the network filter in the network and choosing to disable the service. However, it cannot be turned off in macOS13, macOS14 and macOS15. How can I prevent supervised devices from turning off the network filter in 10, 11 and 12? The macOS 10.15.7 image is as follows: macOS15.1.1 cannot delete and cannot close the image as follows: Hope to receive your reply！

我有十一台M4芯片的mac mini，目前通过AC2将设备挂载在ABM中。目前有10台通过接口 “https://mdmenrollment.apple.com/device/activationlock” 启用企业激活锁去出现INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR错误，只有一台成功了，成功那台设备使用的ABM账号与其他设备使用的ABM账号不同所属组织也不同。 I have eleven M4 chip Mac mini devices, currently mounted in ABM through AC2. Currently, there are 10 units that have passed the interface“ https://mdmenrollment.apple.com/device/activationlock ”Enabling the enterprise activation lock resulted in an INTERNAL_SERVER-ERROR error, and only one device succeeded. The successful device used a different ABM account than the other failed devices and belonged to a different organization.

Hi, I'm glad to hear that the service discovery process is improved on iOS/iPadOS 18.2 mentioned here. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/deployment/dep4d9e9cd26/1/web/1.0 I tried it on my development MDM server. Set default MDM for iPad to my development MDM server on Apple Business Manager. Call the new API https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/account_driven_enrollment_profile and 200 OK is returned However the service discovery fails with the following error. Invalid well-known response for https://{my email's comain name}/.well-known/com.apple.remotemanagement?user-identifier={my email}&model-family=iPad: <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x300a9f420> Invalid well-known response for https://axm-servicediscovery.apple.com/mdmBaseURL?user-identifier={my email}&model-family=iPad: <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x3009047a0> It seems fallback process to https://axm-servicediscovery.apple.com/mdmBaseURL actually works but it returns 404 Not Found error. How can we use this awesome feature? Thank you :)

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
