Hi ,

I am facing a same in ipod where remote management blocking me not to do anything further. appreciate if you could advise solution for ipod.

thanks in advance R

Ragu nathan, I don't know how to fix it on iPod yet, but I will search for a solution for you. If I find one, then I will share it with you here. Thanks!

Does not work for me. The part when you had to put in the command sudo nano /private/etc/hosts Comes up but there is no iprofiles, just localhost to 127.0.0.1, broadcasthost255.255.255.255, and again localhost ::1. When i type sudo profiles show -type enrollment there is still the organization name and everything but no profiles. Can you please help me. Thanks

I am not sure I get what you are saying Jose.

The command sudo nano /private/etc/hosts is trying to open a file called hosts with the nano editor.

Are you saying the file didn't open so that you can type in the next commands into it or that it did but you didn't see some contents in it?

Can you explain further the challenge you are experiencing? Thanks

Thanks for your help! worked like a charm on M1 MacBook Air, Mac OS Ventura 13.1.

Hi Uchenna,

Thank you for your help,

Actually I bought a 2nd hand M2 Macbook Air and the seller never mentionned the MDM issue.

When I try the 1st Method, the Ventura Install didn't want to continue the install without Internet due to the MDM and after the Mac erase and activation.

Now, is there a way to get rid of the Security profiles ?

After Method #2, here's what I get :

Error fetching Device Enrollment configuration: (34000) Error Domain=McCloudConfigurationErrorDomain Code=34000 "The device failed to requ est configuration from the cloud." UserInfo-(NSLocalizedDescription=The device failed to request configuration from the cloud.,CloudConfigurationErrorType=CloudConfigurationFatalError}

Is it Ok in your opinion ?

Thank you again for your advice

Hi Ali,

Yes, you are good. As soon as you get that error it means you've successfully disabled the device enrollment. Congrats.

Let me know if it pops up again.

I was trying #1 for a new mac I bought second hand. These are the new ones I guess, because to enter in the recovery mode it's not with "Boot into recovery mode using command + R. ", but just boot and keep pressing the power button until it shows up.

regardless, when reaching step 2: "Disable internet connection on initial setup.", I don't seem to have that option. I just have an 'Activate Mac' screen that says to "Select a Wi-Fi network from the menu or attach a network cable to proceed". I don't have an option anywhere to proceed without a connection, I think. Any ideas?

Uchenna Egbo thanks for the response! I believe it's the current model, according to the # on the back (A2485). It's an M1 chip. There is no OS installed because I erased it already I'm afraid, so this is what I'm getting when trying to install it new (the laptop was acquired from a startup that went bust)

Honestly, that's a weird one. So it doesn't even allow you to install a new Mac OS?

Maybe you would have to take it to a physical repairs shop where they would use the disk utility method to install a new Mac OS for you.

That's all I can think of now.

Uchenna Egbo yeah, I think I'll have to do that. thanks a lot for the article tho, very useful to know about this stuff

Thank you so much it works!

Just wondering may I system update it to Ventura after bypassed?

Thanks in advance!

Hi James,

Yes, you can. It won't affect it. It has been permanently resolved.

Worked for me, the second one without formatting the disk. You're a star, thanks very much!

You're welcome, Simon. I'm glad it helped you.

This worked on my MacBook Pro

MacBookPro18,2 macOS Ventura 13.0

Thanks!

You are welcome, Sadiq.

Thank you Uchenna! This was the only solution I found that works.

I am so glad it helped you. I was swindled off my hard-earned money by someone for this...Lol. That's why I swore to document it for another person to quickly fix theirs and not get scammed or go through what I did. I am glad when I read this feedback. I will do more!

Able to follow and got the same result but for some reason, pop up is still showing. Any advise please?

Disconnect your system from any network connectivity or Wi-Fi and repeat the - Without Reformating Steps.
Restart your Mac and skip connect to network or Wi-Fi.
Then repeat steps 8 command, ensure you do it more than twice, if you get the error in step 10, you can reconnect your Wifi or internet.

Let me know if it works for you.

Thank you again. I wondered about your name because an other computer engeneer with the same name lives here in Oslo. :)

Oh! that's awesome. I think he's definitely related to my tribe here in Nigeria.

It worked like a charm, but i didn´t get completely rid of it before i also followed step 8 and out. Maybe unlogical, but that did the thing for me. Thank you so much. The annoying popups even stopped Apple Logic from editing music or record. I was just about to buy my self a sledge hammer. (Macbook Pro 2018, Big Sur) Btw: Do you live in Norway?

I'm glad to hear that this article helped you solve your problem, Stein! I had the same issues and laboured to find the solution. That's why I wrote the article to help others like me out there. I live in Nigeria :)
