I purchased 5 iPad Pro 9.7 32GB from a seller on the mobile selling platform Le#go. I purchased these devices for my business from a seller that was going out of business. I got a great deal, I know that sounds cliche.
Once I wiped and restore all units using iTunesi noticed while seeing each one up that they all had an MDM Profile attached. I have tried every method I can think of along with all the YouTube methods but I cannot remove these MDM Profiles from any unit.
When I try to backup the iPads so I can modify the backups and then reinstall them without the MDM Profiles I am unable to do so because whether I want to or not the iPads backups are all encrypted. Which I assume the MDM is somehow force encrypting the backups.
All attempts have failed and I really need these iPad Pros in service with my company. Any ideas out there would be greatly appreciated!!
