Regain access to ipad with no wifi connection
We're using Intune and now i've stumbled into a problem which should be the easiest thing to solve... But then again, nothing is ever easy with Intune 😞 I have an iPad running in single app mode...

Has the iPad ever connected to a Wifi network?
If so, you can create a mobile hotspot with your computer and copy the name and password with the old wifi

Hi Thijs,
Yes, but the it lost its wifi connection when I by mistake removed the wifi profile in intune.
None of these solutions work:
1. Share internet from a mac through usb lightning cable
2. Share internet from mac over open non secure wifi
3. Use an USB ethernet adapter connected through usb lightning cable
As far as I can see, the only solution is to use Apple Configurator 2 and import the correct supervision profile, which the program also suggests. But this is for some unknown reason not available in Intune. This would be an easy task in, for example, jamf or manage engine mdm.
- Thijs LecomteJul 08, 2020Bronze ContributorThe quickest solution might just be to reset the device...
Otherwise, I don't have a solution for you unfortunately.
Maybe somebody else knows something more- kaaremaiJul 08, 2020Copper Contributor
A reset would be just fine with me, but I don't know how to reset the device as its running in kiosk mode and you can't connect it to Apple Configurator.
