Renewing Your Apple MDM Certificate for Intune

1. Access the Intune Portal

• Log in to the Microsoft Intune admin center.

• You’ll see a notification indicating that your certificate is about to expire.

2. Download the Certificate Signing Request (CSR)

• Select I agree to the terms (if not already selected).
• Click Download your CSR. This will save a .csr file to your Downloads folder.

3. Renew the Certificate on Apple’s Portal

• • Click Create your MDM push Certificate. This will redirect you to the Apple Push Certificates Portal.
  • Sign in using the Apple ID associated with your existing certificate.
  • Locate your existing certificate and click Renew.
  • Upload the .csr file you downloaded in Step 2.
  • Once the renewal is complete, download the updated certificate file (MDM_Microsoft Corporation_Certificate.pem).

4. Upload the Renewed Certificate to Intune

• Return to the Intune portal.
• In the Configure MDM Push Certificate pane:
  • Enter your Apple ID.
  • Upload the renewed .pem certificate file.
  • Click Upload to complete the process.

Verifying the Renewal

• After uploading, the portal will confirm that the certificate is active.
• The expiration date will update to reflect 365 days from the renewal date.

Important Notes

• Ensure you use the same Apple ID that was used to create the original certificate.
• Do not create a new certificate unless absolutely necessary, as this will break existing device enrollments.
