HI everyone,
I’m filling in for Michael while he is on new parent leave.
I wanted to bring these two items to your attention.
First, today Apple posted updated agreements to Apple School Manager. Once
posted, your organization won’t be able to enroll devices or deploy new apps
until an administrator signs in to Apple School Manager and accepts two new
agreements.
Related to the Apple School Manager update, Apple is preparing to deliver the
“Dot One” releases of its operating systems which may happen this week. Please
be sure that you have delayed software update properly configured so that you
have time to review the new releases before they become available to your fleet
of Apple devices. We still recomend setting delayed software update to the full
nintey days. You always have the ability to initiate updates from you MDM prior
to the nintey day window. The new updates include:
iOS 17.1
iPad OS 17.1
macOS 14.1
tvOS 17.1
watch OS 10.1
You can test these now via AppleSeed for IT via:
https://beta.apple.com/it
Second, We are continuing our virtual IT Tech Camp series to help prepare you
for the migration. Below is the information about each of these Tech Camps.
