    Hi Guys, I've currently got a Mac server using apple configurator to manage 32 ipads - this was originally setup by an Apple tech guy..

    Somehow.. somewhere - I thought he showed me a setting that I can push out that disables the settings panel on the ipads - but I cant seem to find it?

    afaik, you need to create a policy to do that then the policy will push to the ipads and lock down the settings menu

    If you can't figure it out take a look at cisco meraki it's brilliant for remote management (oh and it's mdm is free)

    I was unaware meraki would allow him to disable the settings menu on all the ipads so the people using them couldnt access it

    Our Mac expert used it to lock down a lot of iPhone devices before he left

    There is indeed a Meraki MDM solution that can do that :)

    Thankyou.. I'll give it a go - I'm sure there's a policy in place - but I just cant find the setting for it.
