    Possible to have profile install after app installation? Solved

    I have an application that I'm installing on our iPads using an app policy. I also have a profile that enables single-app mode pointing to that application. I have an issue where the single-app mode profile is kicking in before the application is installed, and it is throwing an error on my device. The only way around it is to wait for the application to finish installing, and then reboot the device.  My question: Is it possible to have the profile kick in after the application is fully installed on the device?

    How to migrate devices from Profile Manager to Soti

    With Apple ending support for macOS Server we intend to use Soti to manage all our apple devices but I have hit a wall We have around 400 devices that need to be enrolled in Soti. Doing it by hand is gonna take forever Does anyone know of a solution to automatically enroll these devices from Profile Manager to Soti? Keep in mind that I dont have these devices listed in Apple Business Manager because I havent bought them from licensed apple resellers

    Apple BYOD Application Catalog Solved

    Hopefully someone can help me here. I have created and deployed an Apple device as "user" enrollment which works fine (i can add and enroll profiles which take effect on the device like Wifi for example). My problem now is, I also assigned an app policy where 2 apps are assigned to (previously also "purchased" in the ABM (Mobicontrol Agent and Office 365 for testing)). I can see both apps in the provided webclip for Application catalog (https://serveraddress/mc/mdm/appcatalog/%DeviceIdentifier%) but if i press on "install", for both i get the error message "App can't be installed. Please contact your Administrator."  In the webclip for the profile catalog (https://serveraddress/mc/mdm/profile/%DeviceIdentifier%) i get only a blank page. APNS is set up and a test went fine. Did I miss something or is there something related i could have done wrong somewhere?

    How to push updates to VPP apps from MC 15+? Solved

    Does anyone know the current procedure to push updates to VPP apps in MobiControl (v15+)? I found another forum post that covers the process for v13/14, but much of the console seems to have changed since then, so the instructions can't be applied to v15.

    "Profile installation Failed The SCEP server returned an invalid response." Solved

    Hi All, We are currently setting up 90 ipads and joining them through MDM. We have setup around 4x and then suddenly one of the ipads give the following error: "Profile installation Failed The SCEP server returned an invalid response." We cannot solve this by restarting the ipad, not many actions to perform really. Meanwhile, other ipads configured before and after this problematic ipad have no such problem... Can anyone suggest a solution on how to resolve this? Thank you.

    "Unable to install app"

    I'm new to the SOTI platform and am trying to install my first enterprise apps on our devices. I just moved a number of apps from our staging folder in SOTI into subfolders in Soti.  I see that 2 file folders that were installed on the ipads when we provisioned them are gone.. I'm assuming that happened when we moved the devices from one folder to the other?More importantly, I have apps associated with each of the folders.. the apps are grayed out on the ipads and when you press the app you get a pop up that says 'Ynable to install {app name} please try again later"Why would that happen?

    Apple DEP device enrolment/ Remote Management

    Hi all We have a selection of iPad Pro's at the moment, that have been added to our DEP server and synchronized across as required... Our rule has been applied and all looks ok in terms of the configuration. However when they connect to WIFI, and then proceed to the remote management screen - it shows that our company will configure the device, takes a minute connecting and eventually just times out. It cannot download the configuration and hence goes no further. These are WIFI only so I cannot rule out other connections - but I have tried our own WIFI network, external networks and hotspots using 4G sim cards... and we either get just 'cancelled' or 'timed out' Can anyone confirm a few things for me please? Do the iPads have to be on our own network in order to remotely configure when first loading up the devices? These are brand new out of the box. Where could I check to see if they are hitting the server at all, what logs are best to check? Any help appreciated - we are quite new to the apple devices in Soti. Many thanks Leigh
