Is passwordless authentication supported? I mean number matching, Yubikey or something like that instead of the password.

How does this work with Entra/Azure AD hybrid environments?

[QUOTES-lfwt]

Is this feature not working with 2FA?...Bcause as soon as i tried disabling 2FA it allows me to register and login token and complete platform sso registration....please hlp me on this

Hi Jonathan, awesome content, I got this question for you, how is this better or differente from Managed AppleID Federated authentication?

[GlenS-hd]

This has worked well for me... mostly! However, I get some accounts where you can't register and the Entra ID box just 'shakes' and it doesn't register or sync. Has anybody else had this happen?

[armankarambakhsh]

Is this in any was possible for Windows, and without using Azure?!

[barcoproductions]

Major game changer! Thank you for demo this! Been waiting for this very long time! Keep making M365+MacOS videos :)

4:26 -- Which is the "Authentication Method" deprecated?

[JonathanLawton]

Great content Jonathan, I assume if the Mac is offline and a password is changed on M365 the Mac continues to authenticate using the old PW until it reconnects to the internet?

Also when a password is changed on M365 how long does it take to push to a Mac?

Final one I promise… if biometrics is used can you fall back to a password if biometrics fails or stops working?

[pedrovervaeke]

Hi Jonathan,
Does it also writes the Mac to the "Authentication methods" in EntraID when using the "password" option instead of "SecureEnclave"? SecureEnclave will register the Mac as an authentication method :)

I love this! It is almost perfect :). But what about the scenario as followed: macbook comes straight from apple and is uploaded to ABM. End user opens the macbook, boots it up and it says it is remote managed. Fills in the M365 account and due to sso policy it will create a standard account. Perfect. But, when local admin is needed for a task, what then? Because no local admin account has been created yet. It can be fixed if there is a bash script that creates a local admin account via intune, but I have not found such yet. Any idea?

Does thus also works for ios devices ipads iphone?

[Thulebeez]

Great now we revisit our hardware procurement specification, this just makes sense for me to get a Mac instead of a Surface laptop.

[BojidarIliev]

Hi Jonathan, I am running MacOS Sequoia 15.0 and the registration popup does not show up, so I cannot continue with the process of company portal. Any idea how to solve this?

[Richard-klwr]

Do you still have the option to log in as an admin locally, for example, in case of no internet connection or other issues?

[abdurahmanMohamedYarow]

I have Microsoft 365 Business Standard and installed on my Mac Studio, all apps works excellent except Outlook app which doesn't not open at all. Do not know what happened to this app. I tried to reinstall and update apps unfortunately until now does not open the outlook app

Thank you @Jonathan Eduards, It is working.
