Apple MDM migration announcement
Oct. 2, 2024
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Staff and Faculty,
We are pleased to announce that ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ will be migrating to a new Apple Mobile Device Management solution, Kandji, for university-owned Apple devices. This change is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance device security, streamline management, and improve the overall user experience for Apple device users across the university.
What to Expect:
The migration will be conducted in a phased approach to ensure a smooth transition:
- Voluntary Migration: Starting Oct. 21, you will have the opportunity to migrate your university-owned Apple devices to Kandji at your convenience. This voluntary migration can be initiated through the Software Center on your device, providing you with the flexibility to complete the process when it works best for you.
- Forced Migration: On Oct. 28, all remaining university-owned Apple devices that have not yet been migrated will automatically be moved to Kandji. Please ensure your devices are prepared and your data is backed up for this update to avoid any disruption in service.
If you have any questions, concerns, or require assistance with the migration process, please don’t hesitate to contact the Nanook Technology Services Help Desk. Our team is here to support you throughout this transition. For further information, please visit our website.
We will send a second reminder about this migration during the week of Oct. 14, so please keep an eye out for further communication.
Thank you for your cooperation and support as we make this important upgrade to our device management system.
