Just came across this video and i became a FAN!! 😜
In a serious note, really good stuff. Appreciate it.
Thanks, I really appreciate that and thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video
You bet! Thanks for watching
Nice video, is useful. Can show how to use active directory upn as a managed apple id?
Thanks, yes I do plan on covering the new iOS User Enrollment that came with iOS 13 and the new managed Apple ID's that went live a couple weeks ago. Thanks for the feedback, stay tuned!
I configured the ABM and I don't have any devices enrolled, possible to add them manually? or sync the ones that are already on intune to the Apple Business manager console?
Nice video,its very useful, by the way, im confused why I cant select private option on appstoreconnect distribution option, can you tell the reason why? Currently, I was assuming, its because of my archive build I choose App store connect as distribution option instead of Enterprise, because I can't build if I choose Enterprise, it crash my xcode, do you know the reason for this crash as well? Thanks
Interesting, need a bit more color here, feel free to send some screenshots of your errors to me @ 5minutemobility@gmail.com, I will see if I can help.
So in Order for apple dep to work properly, you will
Need a desperate MDM for the devices, correct? Or is the apple dep program the acting MDM? Thanks
No DEP/ABM is not an MDM. You can still upload devices to ABM but in order to supervise the devices and gain access to those more granular permissions you will need an MDM. ABM is the tool that allows you to essential assign an Apple devices as a corporate devices which gives you the additional permissions on the device via supervision.
Hope that help, if you have further questions hit me up @ 5minutemobility@gmail.com
it's been a while since dealing with iOS or Mac OS and now I've been asked, by the owner of the business, to "Lock Down" an iPad we just purchased for our storefront and started doing research on the possibilities. This solution sounds great for larger organizations but is it worth deploying this for a small company that has one or two iOS devices? is there a better solution for "locking down" one or two iOS devices?
ABM is one piece of that solution, in order to lock down the iPad you will still need to purchase an MDM. Jamf Now or Jamf Pro would be a great MDM I would recommend, pretty easy to learn and use and has great support for Apple. In order to lock an iPad into modes like single app mode, you will still need to have the reseller enroll into your ABM so the device becomes supervised. Once it is supervised you will have the right privileges on the device for your MDM to properly configure
When you say to add the MDM server into ABM, OR ASM you mean the endpoint manager server (intune)?? is this correct??
Yes, there is a token authentication between your MDM and ABM which allows them to talk to each other so to speak
Hi,
When are you gonna cover the managed Apple ID’s? Thanks for this vid
I hope to get that one out soon. Balancing my full time job and this channel. Sorry. Trying to get stuff out more consistently. But thanks for the feedback and interest, inspires me to get more content out there!!
Hey so I have a question, is there no way to enroll devices we already have in our business without resetting them completely? They have accounts already and it will throw a wrench in plans if I can't use them again. In normal FTP for what I use we can use their emails rather setting up a new one. is that an option?
If you want to enable the higher level management with supervision, then yes, you will need to reset them. However, you can still manage them directly with an MDM without supervision. This will still allow you to apply security policies like pin code, application provisioning, and other security settings.
Hello, is the Device Assignment option on the left side still available in 2021? When I log into Apple Business Manager as an admin I see Devices and below that, I have Device History. I dont have the option to manually enter the serial numbers.
Apple changed some of the UI. You can check out my ABM 2020 update for new virtual tour: ua-cam.com/video/XYR6LBYvZbI/v-deo.html
Can you do a video on what you can actually do with ABM? It looks like all you can really do is assign it to a server, but you really can't do anything with your devices. So am I wrong in saying that ABM is just a fancy redirect to a server. It doesn't really let you look in on any device status or stats at all.
You are correct, ABM is not an MDM, it is a layer on top of an MDM. ABM does 3 main things. It gives you, as an organization, proof of ownership of a device. This can be used in cases like activation lock. ABM also gives you the ability to supervise a device. Supervision, will require an MDM, but will give you more granular configurations inside the MDM. Supervision essentially turns a consumer iOS device into a corporate device with higher privileges and remote managements. Third, ABM, with MDM, will allow you to automate device enrollment into the MDM. This is the idea of you turn on a device, hit wifi, and the device auto hands itself off the MDM for enrollment. Zero-touch from IT. ABM itself won't do much without an MDM, that is still required. I hope that helped
5 Minute Mobility It just disappoints me. The last thing I wanted was another layer on top of everything else. Especially if it requires so much work, unless you can just add locations/groups easily after the first. Please tell me the additional locations/groups are easy to add.
Are you looking to import groups and locations from an existing directory like AD? That is not possible, you would need to create groups and locations manually. If you have Azure AD you can federate that for end-user import for managed Apple ID.
5 Minute Mobility thank you. I appreciate the honest, if disappointing, response.
@@aperson4156 Absolutely, any questions please give me a hollar, or if you would like to have a more in depth offline discussion you can email me at 5minutemobility@gmail.com, I can see if I can help clear anything additional up or help you define a further use case
Hi,
I tried to follow your screen and i'm on the devices screen and it doesn't look the same as yours. Yours stated Device Assignments which allows you to manually add the serial numbers of the machines. My page just lists all the devices. How do I get to your screen so that I can manually add the Apple devices I have in inventory and not rely on the resellers?
Apple made some changes this past October 2020 and change the device assignment process. Check out my 2020 ABM Walkthrough update, let me know if that helps and address the issue. ua-cam.com/video/XYR6LBYvZbI/v-deo.html
How about if the laptops aren't from an official reseller? How do we add them to the ABM?
Sorry that I am so late to the game, but thank you for watching! Unfortunately, to my knowledge, macOS devices can not be manually enrolled into ABM like iOS devices can via Apple Configurator. There are MDM's like Jamf that have software like Recon that would allow you to view macOS devices on the network and enforce enrollment, additionally, any macOS device can be enrolled after setup configuration. I hope that helps, if you would like to have further convo please feel free to email me at 5minutemobility@gmail.com, I would be glad to help in any way I can!
I am STUCK. I asked Verizon to enroll me in the Verizon MDM and I can see all my devices but is shows that none of them are enrolled. How do I enroll the devices so I can use them in conjunction with ABM or with the Verizon MDM platform?
Sorry for the delay, I replied to your other commend
Thank you! Moar plz!
I know it has a been a minute since my last video, but more to come soon. Thanks for the support
You didn't touch on Federation and stuff?
Very true, something I am still continuing to educate myself on as well but hope to touch on it soon. Thanks for the feedback
you didnt walk through the accoutns screen in detail which is what i needed
Sorry about that, is there anything you wanted to see in particular?
@@5MinuteMobility If you have federated authentication enabled, then I take it you don't manually enter the details in the fields?
Can I add a device which is on activation screen?
Are you referring to activation lock, so it is locked to another users iCloud account? If a device is locked to an iCloud account you will not be able to add the device into ABM/DEP. That end user will need to release that device, or if it is a corporate asset you will need to work with Apple, who will require proof of purchase, to release it. Once the device is released and then enrolled into ABM and MDM, there are configurations you can use within MDM that will allow you to remove activation lock or generate a passcode for a locked future device.
Additionally, the device has to be enrolled from a factory reset state. So if it already provisioned and you enroll into DEP/ABM, you will need to reset that device so it goes through the activation process again to leverage supervision and automated enrollment.
I hope that helps, let me know if I address your question properly!
@@5MinuteMobility Thank you so much. Things cleard but how do I know if this device is already enrolled?
@@inotechsylhet2074 when do you mean already enrolled, are you referring to already enrolled in ABM/DEP? The best way to determine that is going to the MDM server section under settings and you can see how many devices are in that server and download a CSV file which will show you IMEI. Additionally, you can look at the activity feed and that will usually have a notification of a device that is assigned. You can also verify this in your MDM if needed as well.
@@5MinuteMobility thank you I understand now 👍

Thanks for watching!
Where is the DEP stored? Firmware or software?
DEP is a cloud based web app. If you are referring to where the serial of the device is stored for validating a device belongs to an organization. When you purchase an Apple device, that reseller can upload the device identifiers to Apple, which then Apple associates it to your DEP. From there you are able to use the MDM to supervise that device as well as enable features like automated enrollment
Plz help me
