- Unfortunately, my mac is on the verge of dying as the screen is slowly but surely separating from the casing due to the glue wearing off and I cant even close my macbook at the point. I have a mid 2009 15 inch Macbook Pro 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running OS X 10.8.5. Im trying to save all of my important files onto a 32 gb flash drive.

Hi all,
I recently bought a used Mac that I now discover is still connected to a college's IT department via MDM profiles. They can erase my Mac, lock my screen etc. I'm hoping you might be able to help me with the following questions.
If/when the college removes my Mac from their MDM system, will they ever be able to reinstall MDM profiles? They have my UUID.
Put another way, what information and/or access is required to install MDM profiles on a remote Mac over the Net? I read through the Profile Manager docs as best I could, and it appeared that all you need is the UUID or serial number. Is that correct, or am I misinformed?
I'm trying to determine whether I'll ever be able to be fully confident that this Mac is secure and under my exclusive control. What say you?
As best I can tell, there's no way for me to break the connection to the college from my end. If you know differently, please advise.
Many grateful thanks for any advice or information you can share. As it stands there's no point in setting up a Mac someone else can erase, and I can't in good conscience even sell this machine as it is. I'm truly at square zero without some help. THANKS!

You can use macOS to renew your certificate enrollment with your configuration profile via two methods:
- Simple certificate enrollment protocol (SCEP), which often uses a Microsoft certificate authority (CA) Network Device Enrollment Service (NDES).
- DCOM/RPC (ADCertificate), which relies on a Microsoft Windows Server Certificate Authority (CA).
About certificates
In macOS, you can get and renew your certificate with the same profile. macOS alerts you as a certificate nears its expiration date:
- When a certificate is 15 days from its expiration date, you get a reminder.
- When a certificate is less than 15 days from its expiration date, a banner appears in Notification Center. This notification repeats once a day until the certificate expires or you update or remove it.
To update a certificate, in the Profiles pane of System Preferences, click the certificate profile, then click Update.
Renew with ADCertificate
In the Profiles pane of System Preferences, click the Update button to create a new private key. The new private key is used to sign the certificate request that’s sent to the CA. The new certificate from the CA is paired with the new private key.
The original certificate and private key that were created when the profile was installed stay in the keychain.
Learn how to automatically renew certificates delivered via a configuration profile.
Renew with SCEP
Click the Update button in the Profiles pane of System Preferences. The current private key is used to sign the certificate request that’s sent to the CA. When CA renews the certificate, it pairs it with the original private key.
The original certificate that was created when the profile was installed stays in the keychain.

Renew through the command line
In macOS 10.12 Sierra and later, you can renew the ADCertificate and SCEP profile-generated certificates with the /usr/bin/profiles
command. Use the following syntax in the command line:
profiles -W -p <profileIdentifier value>
You can find the 'profileIdentifier' value by listing the installed profiles with the -L command argument.
Set up renewal notifications
Yosemite and later versions of macOS display a daily notification when the certificate has less than 14 days until it expires.

You can change the daily notification time with two configuration parameters called CertificateRenewalTimeInterval and CertificateRenewalTimePercent:
Parameter | Application Method | Allowed Values | Value Type |
CertificateRenewalTimeInterval | Profile Manager configuration profile: ADCert or SCEP | Greater than 14 days, or less than the maximum lifetime of the certificate in days | Days (integer) |
CertificateRenewalTimePercent | /usr/sbin/defaults | Between 1 and 50 | Percentage (integer) |
You can apply the CertificateRenewalTimePercent with syntax like this:
You can use these two settings together:
- If CertificateRenewalTimeInterval is defined in the profile, use that value.
- If CertificateRenewalTimeInterval isn't defined in the profile, but is defined on the client, use the value of the CertificateRenewalTimePercent.
If neither value is defined, the time interval is set to 14 days.

The profile you used to create the ADCert or SCEP certificate might be removed. If you use Mavericks or a later version of macOS, the most recent certificate and private key are removed from the keychain, but the original certificate isn’t. You have to delete it.
The profile you used to get the certificate might have other payloads linked to the certificate. Examples of payloads include Network: EAP-TLS, VPN: OnDemand certificate-based authentication. When the certificate is renewed, the dependent configurations are updated for the new certificate.
After a certificate is renewed, the installed profile is associated with the new certificate. When a certificate is renewed, no additional profiles are installed or created.
