Previously mentioned in MC394519, with Apple’s expected release of macOS 13 Ventura later this year, Microsoft Intune, the Company Portal app and the Intune MDM agent will be moving to support macOS 11.6 (Big Sur) and later. Since the Company Portal app for iOS and macOS are a unified app, this change will occur shortly after the release of iOS/iPadOS 16. This does not affect existing, enrolled devices.
How this will affect your organization
This will only affect you if you currently manage, or plan to manage macOS devices with Intune. This may not impact you because your users have likely already upgraded their macOS devices. See macOS Big Sur is compatible with these computers – Apple Support for a list of devices that are supported.
Note: Devices that are currently enrolled on macOS 10.15 or below will continue to remain enrolled even when those versions are no longer supported. New devices will be unable to enroll if they are running macOS 10.15 or below.
What you need to do to prepare
Check your Intune reporting to see which devices or users may be affected. Go to Devices > All devices and filter by macOS. You can add in additional columns to help identify who in your organization has devices running macOS 10.15 or below. Request that your users upgrade their devices to a supported OS version before this change.
