r/mosyle

I am a small law firm owner that is hiring a part-time paralegal. We now have 3 total Mac Books and an iPad in our arsenal. The first two and iPad were registered into Mosyle after they were purchased. I am using Apple Business and Mosyle in anticipation of scaling the business eventually. I just purchased this third MacBook through Apple and it is already registered in Apple Business and in Mosyle and set for automatic device enrollment.

When I turned on the MacBook for the first time to set it up, it is asking me to Create a Mac Account. Before I go further and mess something up, I would appreciate guidance on the Full Name, Account Name, and PWs. Would these be unique logins for the paralegal? Or would they be more permanent for the MacBook longer term?

If permanent, then I obviously do not want to create an account for the paralegal that will only be here a few months and have her name permanent ingrained into the computer or software.

Additional information:

-Mosyle settings were whatever the Support team recommended when I did my free sessions with Mosyle upon sign up.

-Account Config: YES to prompt user to create an account / administrator

-NO to create additional local admin during Setup Assistant.

I would appreciate any tips and guidance on setup...

Senior IT tech at a K12 school district. We're getting ready to add over 100 Macbooks to our teacher device fleet and will be getting Mosyle as MDM. One of our schools is egregiously bad about printer overuse and the admins in that building want all teachers to have hold print settings on their laptops. Up until now they've had Windows laptops and the drivers support the Hold Print function natively.

Since we're going to be getting Mosyle for the incoming Macbooks, I'm wondering if there's a way I can push Hold Print settings to everybody at once. Or would it be better to set up a print server? Thanks for any guidance on this.

Hi, my sons iPad was provided to him through his school and we paid it off monthly so he can keep it at the end of his time at school.

it’s been a few years since he’s left school and I can’t seem to get the mosyle app to delete. I’ll delete it and before I know it it’ll reappear on the Home Screen

Does this mean his school has access to his iPad still and why won’t the app permanently delete?
