We apologize for the late announcement for this month’s meeting as we were still looking for a location. Fortunately, Joe from the Apple Store came through and we’ll be holding this month’s meeting at the Walnut Street Apple Store next Thursday, 9/22. With the release of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra this month there’ll be plenty to cover in What’s New and our open discussion, so RSVP here.

The 2016 Pennsylvania State College Mac Admins Conference was held last month and there was some Philly MacAdmins speaking. Vaughn Miller (@Vaughn_E_Miller) was one of three speakers for the Mac OS Deployment Options workshop on Monday. Workshop sessions were not recorded unfortunately. Jeremy Reichman (@jaharmi) and Sergio Aviles (@chalcahuite) presented “Implementing Configuration Profiles for OS X Management.” This session was recorded and can be watched here. Slides from their presentation can also be found here.

Our third meeting was on Thursday, August 20th. Our effusive thanks goes to the Walnut Street Apple Store and Joe Hutsko’s team for graciously hosting us this month. And the community continued to prove their interest with another great showing of attendance.
Serge started the meeting off with “What’s New” a potentially recurring segment that keeps up with all the recent news and events and things of interest to our community. This month we highlighted OS X 10.10.5 update, the iOS 8.4.1, Office 2016 for Mac shipping, and “Tpwn,” the new privilege escalation exploit in OS X that was recently discovered. Jesse Shipley presented and demo’d his new tool for Casper that provides more robust and verbose checkins, called “Deadpool. ” It’s free and available to use on his Github repo: here.
Again, we broadcasted the meeting through Google Hangouts. Here’s the video:
