I am needing to access the ABM API via C#. Searching has directed me to use BouncyCastle. I have downloaded the PEM file. However, using the following:
using (var reader = File.OpenText(pemFilePath))
{
var pemReader = new PemReader(reader);
var keyObject = pemReader.ReadObject();
I get the error "problem creating EC private key: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Is it mandatory to get explicit user consent in iOS apps to collect their product usage data anonymously with something like mixpanel.

Hi,team:
I need to distribute an mdm configuration file containing the "ServiceManagementManagedLoginItems" service to a large number of company-supervised computers, where com.apple.servicemanagement only supports macOS 13.0+. However, I cannot effectively distinguish whether the device system where the mdm configuration file needs to be installed is greater than 13. Can I directly install the mdm configuration file on all devices? Will installing the mdm configuration file on devices less than 13 have any impact on the system or other configuration items in mdm? The description link of ServiceManagementManagedLoginItems is: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/servicemanagementmanagedloginitems
I have created a jwt token with headers
{
'typ': 'JWT',
'alg': 'RS256'
}
and claim as :
{
'iss': dep server UUID from Accounts call,
'iat': epoc time in seconds,
'jti': random uuid,
'service_type': 'com.apple.maid'
}
And signed the token with private key created during DEP MDM server creation. On the device I see Verification error when tried to login with Managed Apple account. In ABM, Access management setting was set to Managed Devices /Supervised only. Any help would be appreciated.

I am having an issue with duplicated SCEP client certificates on an iOS device.
We deployed an SCEP profile via MDM, then deleted and redeployed it via MDM. In Settings > General > VPN & Device Management, only one SCEP profile is visible. However, Safari shows duplicated certificates when a server requests a client certificate.
We have tried removing the cert profile on MDM and unenrolling the device from MDM, but only the latest certificate got removed, leaving previous ones stuck on the device or in the Safari app.
We have found no way to remove these duplicated certificates other than factory reset the devices.
This appears to be a potential iOS bug affecting certificate cleanup. We need assistance to resolve this issue. Also, the issue is difficult to reproduce but has happened to a number of our managed devices.

I desperately need help with this issue. Are there any known issues regarding MDM profiles not installing on iPhone 17? Too many cases are being reported.

In the RequestRequiresNetworkTether property, the definition of “network-tethered” is unclear, and there seems to be a discrepancy between the actual behavior and the description in the documentation.
We would like to clarify the definition of the connection state that “network-tethered” means and the specific behavior requirements when the property is set to true.
Explanation of the document
The description “If true, the device must be network-tethered to run the command.
I was not sure whether it refers to “network connection” or “tethered communication” as the Japanese translation.
Actual operation verification results
The error message was “The device is not tethered. (MDMErrorDomain:12081)”.
Error occurs when only carrier communication is used
The following connection conditions work normally (as in the case of false)
Wifi communication
Combination of carrier communication and Wifi communication
Tethering communication
Combination of carrier communication and tethering communication
Tethering connection (both parent and child devices)
Inconsistencies
Although the document description could be interpreted as a simple network connection requirement, actual operation is limited only to carrier communications alone
Error message uses language regarding tethering, but actual tethering connection works fine

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

What is the proper payload for the FDEFileVault?

I'm the IT Admin in my company. We use Microsoft Intune, which is a Mobile Device Management tool, to manage our devices and apps. I created an app protection policy, restricting the data can only be shared between the allowed apps. For example, if our user want to copy the content in Outlook for iOS to WeChat or personal memo, the action will be blocked.
However, may be it's too strict, here is the scenario that we need to hadle: A user selected the content in the Outlook for iOS mail, and wanted to use the "translate" function to do translation. Before the app protection policy was deployed, he can do the translation successfully. And now, it's blocked.
Therefore, we need to find a way to exempt the app "Translate" so that users can do the translation successfully. We put the value "com.apple.Translate"(this is a package ID listed in the official document of Apple) to the exemption, but it's not working.
May I know what is the correct "value" for the iOS native Translate APP? I need to put this value to our app protection policy to exempt Translate app.
Thank you so much.
We're currently facing an issue with Intune not automatically updating/downloading the updated build/app to end-user ios devices. It's worth noting that we've recently migrated the Xamarin project to a .NET-style SDK in this version. Previously, the app used to update automatically without any problems. We'd appreciate it if you could help us understand what might be causing this issue.

npm install web-streams-polyfill
Tried downgrading to Node 18 as well as various polyfills but haven't been able to get it to work

Delete your Podfile.lock (I like to use the command '-rm -rf Podfile.lock' on the terminal for this)
Delete your Pods folder (I like to use the command '-rm -rf Pods' in the terminal for this)
Delete your .xcworkspace
Pod install
Clear your project into XCode> Product> Clean Build Folder
i have tried
cd ios
pod install
Continuously i am getting same error.
Any one know, how to resolve this error

Hi I am trying to develop Apple MDM solution as a vendor. I got the Vendor certificate from apple developer portal. When I was trying to generate the csr and upload to Portal (https://identity.apple.com/pushcert/) It says Invalid Certificate Signing Request. I had also tried to follow documentation (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/setting-up-push-notifications-for-your-mdm-customers) but still the same error. Can anyone please guide how to generate the csr.
