Q: Are these managed preferences available to Office 2016 apps?Ī: Many are in Office 2016 (versions 15.9 through 16.16.x). Be sure to use the plists from Paul’s GitHub, though.) Upload the entire plist to a Custom Settings payload in a new configuration profile. (See this example for what it will look like when you’re done. Or you can copy those settings from the MAU_ist example and paste them at the end of the file. You can use the defaults command explained in the webinar to add more properties to the file like the settings for HowToCheck, ChannelName, etc.

Use a plain text editor like BBEdit to make a new file on your desktop and paste in the full plist. See the example on Paul’s GitHub repository.
Q: I've experienced an issue where apps deployed on a new machine don't register with MAU until the app is launched at least once.Ī: You can resolve this through a configuration profile that has the Applications array defined. A plist here will affect all users but will let each choose another setting if desired. However, in Paul’s “Walkthrough – Policy or Preference” section, he describes how an administrator may want to create a new plist in the System-wide preferences at /Library/Preferences. A configuration profile will manage and enforce settings for all users. The plist for the AutoUpdate application is per user and exists in each user’s home folder. Q: Is there an AutoUpdate plist that is global to all users?Ī: Not by default. Keep in mind that some changes made in an application may not be written to its plist until the application is quit. Q: Can you also use Xcode to edit a plist on the fly?Ī: Yes, this should work too.

Q: What are you using to view the plist?Ī: BBEdit from Bare Bones Software is a great plain text editor that lets you view and edit plists easily. Automatic Outlook account setup using a configuration profile and Intelligent Services are specific to Office 365. Q: Does this content also apply to Office 365 ProPlus or just Office 2019?Ī: Yes, the great majority of this content equally applies to both Office 2019 and Office 365. This key doesn’t require an Office 365 subscription, nor does it require a domain-joined Mac. Q: Does the OfficeAutoSignIn key only work if you are signed in to a domain-joined Mac with an account that has an Office 365 subscription?Ī: No. However, apps activated with Office 365 credentials receive more features than other types of licensing.

Q: Does the OfficeAutoSignIn key in a configuration profile work with an enterprise volume license or is there an option to skip that window? Or is there a volume license package that will activate Office?Ī: Yes, the key works regardless of how Office is activated (Office 365 subscription, volume license or single license.) Volume licensing is available for organizations needing five or more seats and avoids users needing to sign in with Office 365 credentials.

The main focus of the webinar was to demonstrate how to manage Office using plists and profiles, however, presenter Paul Bowden with Microsoft did have “One more thing…” Office applications are now available in the Mac App Store and attendees had many questions about that too. We couldn’t answer all of your questions fully in the short time we were together, so let’s follow up here with some of your Questions & Answers. Our webinar, How to Manage Microsoft Office 2019 for Mac, generated a lot of interest from the Jamf community and a lot of questions from those who were able to join.
