For company assigned iphones with company sim cards, we again apply the generic apple ID/icloud acount. If they dont then we put our generic on them There is no payment info associated with that apple id/icloud account. Most employee owned iphone users use their own Apple ID. Either way, you get assigned a company SIM card with one of our numbers on it. We run a hybrid Employee owned (BYOD) and Company owned/assigned iPhone policy. Im not sure if this is even possible though.įor that last part, I'd just use Meraki, which is free. That way when the phone needs restored we just enter in the the icloud information instead of the apple ID. The other thing we thought about is setting up 1 iCloud account to attach to all the phone's Find My iPhones feature and then let everyone use their own Apple ID's.
#Is iphone backup password the same as apple id password#
I think this is close to what we were thinking of doing as much as i hate having to keep track of someones password it seems like the best option. after that it would be simple maintenance. The painful part would be the initial setup of your system. if the device is lost or stolen you have the appleID already and can use that functionality to track it down.Ĭarrier, contract #, "home base location", User name, Apple ID, password, Phone Number. just keep track of the device along with the phone number attached to it. You may be stuck registering the device to a new (company controlled) apple ID. How does everyone have this setup with their company? What is everyone's Best Practice for creating these Apple ID's and going about setting up these accounts with Company cell phones?ĭo you just have a single Apple ID / iCloud ID that is used for every device? Probably the last thing on their mind is hey I need to give them my Apple ID and password.
With the new feature activation lock for iOS 7 you need their Apple ID to restore the phone which isn't always the easiest to retrieved from a terminated employee. After they returned the phone we would wipe it and set it up as a new phone. We have decided to re-evaluate the process of which we handle company iPhones and setting up Apple ID's.īefore we just let everyone create their own Apple ID and let them use it the entire time they had the phone. If you use multiple Apple IDs and want to restore your device from a backup, you can learn more about iCloud or iTunes backups.Thanks to post about "iPhone Restore still asks for iCloud Password." I did some further research on the feature that is causing this issue and relayed the information to my company and the possible complications it could cause with employee's being terminated and needing to set up the phone for a new user. Go to iTunes > Sign In and sign in with the Apple ID that you want to use with iTunes.
