How to fix Apple Business Manager not working
Apple Business Manager is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach business.apple.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Apple Business Manager.
Update the app
Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.
While Apple Business Manager is down: what to use instead
- Apple Configurator On a Mac, Apple Configurator can prepare and supervise devices over USB while the portal is unavailable.
- Your MDM console Push profiles from the MDM console you already run, because enrolled devices keep taking commands even while the portal is down.
- App Store For free apps that do not need a managed assignment, have people install them from the App Store and sign in with their own account.
- Manual setup Finish basic setup on the device and leave the management profile for later if you can hand it over without enrollment.

How we track Apple Business Manager
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Apple Business Manager, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Apple Business Manager, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Apple Business Manager doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
