Apple MDM Certificate Renewal Hello, Our Apple MDM push certificate, ADE and VPP tokens are set to expire on 7/1. Our MDM is Meraki Systems Manager. Is it ok to do the renewal a day (or more) ahead of time? Thank you, Gary

Mdm profile Hello. I installed an mdm profile on my devices and I wanted to know if I need to renew the certificates manually every year? Before or after they expire? And if I don’t renew them on time and they expire, What will happen to the devices? Can they still be used? Thank you in advance.

Apple MDM Push Certificates (APNs) Hey! I need your help regarding APNs certificates. In my team we use Microsoft Intune as an MDM provider to enroll and manage Mac and iOS devices. Therefore, you have to create an Apple MDM Push Certificate within Intune. If this certificate expires, you have to renew it by following the rules (same AppleID as last time and renew the certificate instead of creating a new one). Now, we have a phenomen with one of our customers where we manage iOS and MacOS devices. Instead of renewing the expiring certificate they have created a new one. This means, they had to do a re-enrollment with their iOS devices BUT NOT for the MacOS devices. Most of their devices are still connected to the old expired Apple MDM Push certificate and they are still compliant within Intune and working fine. Some of their devices are connected to the newest certificate and are also compliant. How is this possible? Why behave iOS devices in a different way than MacOS devices? Why are they still compliant and connected to the old expired certificate? Can someone help me in this case?

MDM push certificates are always free. Everything within the MDM and ASM/ABM framework are free. The MDM platform is built by a third party (such as MS Intune) on top of the framework and usually has a cost associated (with Intune, this is included some Microsoft 365 plans, or can be added on by purchasing an Enterprise Security + Mobility license).
