Add Company-Owned Apple Devices to MDM with Device Enrollment

If your company-owned macOS device wasn't added to your ABM or ASM account, you can't use Apple鈥檚 Automated Device Enrollment to enroll the device. Instead, you can use Device Enrollment to download, distribute, and install your organization鈥檚 黑料海角91入口 MDM enrollment profile. Enrollment profiles aren't device-specific, and you can download the profile from the MDM tab in the 黑料海角91入口 Admin Portal. The disadvantage of enrolling devices with this method is that the process can be time-intensive and might require physical access to the machine.

Prerequisites:

  • Device Enrollment is only appropriate for devices running macOS 11.0 (Big Sur) or newer that aren't enrolled via Automated Device Enrollment.
  • MDM has to be configured for your org. 厂别别听Set Up Apple MDM to learn more.

You can turn Stolen Device Protection back on after the device has been enrolled. See Apple's support documentation, to learn more.
