Add or Renewing your ADE (DEP) Account Token
Description
ADE is the optimal way to enroll your Apple devices. ADE enrollment is required for countless features and management tools. Once added, you will need to renew your ADE token every year.
If you're renewing your token, it's not necessary to re-upload the server certificate (steps 1, 2, 5 & 6) each time unless the cert has changed or you are receiving a FORBIDDEN error when syncing ADE.
Step-by-step guide
- Download the ADE Certificate from FileWave Admin
- Save the certificate "FileWave ADE" to your desktop.
