r/macsysadmin on Reddit: Activation Lock Bypass Code - UIE
April 28, 2025 -

I have a Mac that was enrolled in Jamf using User-Initiated Enrollment (UIE). The user had signed in with their personal iCloud account and enabled Find My, which turned on Activation Lock.

After wiping the machine and booting into Recovery Mode, I got the Activation Lock screen. I went to Recovery Assistant > Activate with MDM Key… and entered the Activation Lock Bypass Code from the user’s inventory page in Jamf (under the Management tab).

However, I keep getting this message: “The operation couldn’t be completed. Your Apple ID or password is incorrect.”

In theory, this should work right? Or is it failing because the machine was enrolled via UIE and not supervised via Automated Device Enrollment (DEP)?
