Hi All,
I'm trying to figure out why there's something tucked in the release notes for macOS 15b1 and iOS 18b1 saying:
“• Profile-based User Enrollment is no longer supported in macOS 15. For User Enrollment, sign in with a Managed Apple Account in Settings.”
If I'm reading this correctly, "UIE" or User Initiated Enrollment in Jamf parlance, will not be possible on macOS 15 and iOS18 going forward...
But, there is ZERO mention of this in the video about what's new for Management, or what's new for IT document.
I work in higher ed, and sadly, we get a lot of out of band purchases that aren't ADE eligible. And we've been told for years, and continue to be told, that Managed Apple ID's aren't appropriate for Higher Ed.
So this is a big deal if this is being removed, and I find it disturbing it's being tucked away in release notes rather than being broadcast in every location. Heck, for small shops that don't have ASM or ABM, this means no MDM (they won't have managed Apple Accounts to enroll, they won't have ADE)? I happen to use a free Jamf Now system for home managing some personal home devices... I won't be able to do this with macOS 15/iOS 18?
