• How to Manage Apple Devices Without Apple Business Manager (2025 Guide)

  Yes. You can install profiles manually or use tools like Scalefusion, for macOS management even without ABM. Final Thoughts You don’t need Apple Business Manager to manage Apple devices, but you’ll sacrifice automation and full control.

• Force Touch Feedback not working

  You can take your Mac to Apple and have them doing a firmware restoration (Apple Configurator 2) on it for free to see if that fixes it. Or you can do this yourself if you have a second Mac to work with with Monterrey or Ventura. Source: over 2 years ago

• Question: Create an image and restore it to new mac

  On a larger scale, if you want this to happen automatically when users take their devices out of the box the first time, you're getting into device provisioning and deployment / MDM territory. If so, you'll want to start looking into Apple Business Manger, the Apple Configurator, or an MDM like JAMF Now. This can be quite a lot of work to setup and maintain, so unless you're doing a lot of machines, it's just not... Source: over 2 years ago

• Block adult content on YouTube via pi hole

  There is, at least if you have a Mac handy : Apple Configurator will do the job. But you will be going down a rabbit hole setting up the infrastructure, creating the management profiles, etc. So it may open you up to more trouble than it's worth. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Block DNS

  There’s a couple ways to do that - and it’s been awhile since I’ve done it - but I think the family setup option in iOS will do this for you pretty easily and can be managed by the iCloud family sharing. You can also use the Apple Configurator https://support.apple.com/apple-configurator for a bit more “advanced” route. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Solution for issues in T-Mobile

  If that doesn't work, you can download the Apple Configurator yourself, open the NextDNS profile, and disable IPv6 to apparently accomplish what the bwacos profile does ... Or at the very least to open the bwacos profile and make sure it's not doing anything nasty. Source: over 3 years ago

• How to disallow child from changing date and time zone for his iPhone. Urgent!

  It doesn't look like there's a way to restrict access to the time settings from within iOS, but you can use Apple Configurator to create a profile with additional restrictions and apply it to his phone. When you create a new profile in Configurator, choose Restrictions > Configure > Force automatic date and time. Source: about 4 years ago
