In this week's issue of the news summary for Mac Admins, I rationalize procrastinating on responding to the Enterprise survey. But there are also lots of great and useful articles and tools from admins all over!
I have added some of the Scripts, Config Profiles and Config Files I use daily.
Example: Turn your MDM Logging to 11 with some hidden Log Lines enabled that are not in Apples Diagnostic MDM Logging Profile. #MacAdmins

Compliance is a big deal and with the release of Jamf Pro 11.16, new tools are available to help make devices compliant. In this post, we’ll explore what it means, how it affects the people using their devices, and how to strike the right balance between security and usability.

The MacAdmins.news issue of this week looks deeper at the changes from last week's macOS 15.4 updates (new rsync!)
Opening up a new M4 MacBook Air for someone this morning, and I thought - 'just how many Macs have I opened?'. It has to be in the 100s and 100s. In previous orgs I'd be buying laptops and desktops by the pallet.
My dad once took a great photo of me back in about 2003ish, in the back of a massive lorry full of eMacs
This week's issue of MacAdmins.news obviously pays a lot of attention to macOS 15.4, iOS 18.4 and all the other Apple updates, but also contains many other interesting links to posts from the MacAdmins community!
