Hello @verbnigge ,
For APNs certificates, the Apple ID association is controlled by Apple. The correct sequence is to complete the transfer on Apple’s side first.
Recommended workflow:
- Contact Apple Support and request that the existing APNs/MDM push certificate be transferred to the active Apple ID your organization will continue using.
- Wait until Apple confirms that the transfer is complete.
- In Hexnode UEM, renew the APNs certificate using that same Apple ID.
- Upload or complete the renewed APNs certificate workflow in the Hexnode UEM portal.
The important part is to renew the existing APNs certificate with the same certificate identity after Apple completes the transfer. Avoid creating a brand-new APNs certificate unless you intend to re-enroll managed Apple devices, because a different APNs certificate can break MDM communication with already enrolled devices.
