Option A: Safe Mode disables extensions; Control Center doesn’t manage them.

Option B: System Information doesn’t notarize extensions.

Option C: Migration Assistant isn’t for updates.

Option D: Correct per macOS security policy.References: Apple Support - "If a system extension won’t load" (support.apple.com/HT210999).

When multiple keys (e.g., 10 on the right side) on a Mac keyboard consistently produce incorrect characters, it suggests a hardware issue rather than a software misconfiguration. Keyboards can fail due to physical damage, wear, or internal connection issues, leading to erratic behavior like wrong outputs.

Option A (Game Mode) is a feature on iOS/iPadOS (not macOS as of 2025) and doesn’t affect keyboard input mapping.

Option B (Mouse Keys) enables numeric keypad keys to control the pointer but doesn’t remap standard keys to produce incorrect characters.

Option D (Sticky Keys) modifies key press behavior for accessibility (e.g., holding modifiers), but it doesn’t cause keys to output wrong characters.

Option C (keyboard replacement) aligns with a hardware fault, especially given the localized nature of the issue (right side). Basic troubleshooting (e.g., restarting, checking language settings) should be ruled out first, but the description points to a physical defect.See Apple’s "If your Mac keyboard isn’t working" (support.apple.com/HT204540) for hardware troubleshooting steps.

AirDrop typically requires Wi-Fi proximity. EnablingUse Cellular Data(Settings > General > AirDrop) in iOS 18 allows transfers to complete over cellular if devices move out of Wi-Fi range.

Option B: Handoff is for app continuity, not AirDrop.

Option C: Bringing Devices Together enhances discovery, not range.

Option D: VPN doesn’t extend AirDrop.

Option A: Correct—extends capability.References: Apple Support - "Use AirDrop" (support.apple.com/HT204144).

Private Wi-Fi Address(Settings > Wi-Fi > [network] > i) randomizes the MAC address per network. If the organization uses MAC filtering (allowing specific addresses), a randomized MAC prevents connection.

Option A: Limits IP tracking, not MAC.

Option C: Low Data Mode restricts data, not connectivity.

Option D: Location Services doesn’t affect MAC.

Option B: Correct—random MAC clashes with filtering.References: Apple Support - "Use private Wi-Fi addresses" (support.apple.com/HT211227).

On macOS, configuration profiles are inSystem Settings > General > Device Management(Ventura and later), listing MDM profiles.

Option A: Control Center doesn’t host this.

Option B: Service isn’t needed.

Option D: Bypass Key isn’t a standard term here.

Option C: Correct—MDM-specific step.References: Apple Support - "MDM Recovery Lock" (support.apple.com/HT204142).

Passkeys (passwordless authentication) require:

B:Two-factor authenticationfor Apple Account security.

D:iCloud Keychainto store and sync passkeys across devices.

Option A: App-Specific Passwords are for third-party apps, not passkeys.

Option C: Legacy Contact is for data inheritance, unrelated.

Option E: Account Recovery aids access but isn’t required.References: Apple Support - "Use passkeys to sign in" (support.apple.com/HT213305).

iCloud backups on an iPad require sufficient storage space in the user’s iCloud account (5GB free by default, expandable via subscription). If the backup fails, the most common reason is insufficient space, as iCloud won’t proceed if the data exceeds available storage. Check this inSettings > [user name] > iCloud > Manage Storage.

Option A is irrelevant; Managed Apple Accounts support iCloud backups unless restricted by MDM, but the question doesn’t specify this.

Option B (Bluetooth) isn’t required for iCloud backups, which use Wi-Fi.

Option C is correct and a standard troubleshooting step.

Option D (passcode/unlocked) isn’t a requirement; backups occur when locked, on Wi-Fi, and charging.See Apple’s "If you can’t back up to iCloud" (support.apple.com/HT203516).

MDM can automate Setup Assistant, skipping screens (e.g., Apple ID, Terms) for managed devices enrolled in Apple School Manager/Business Manager.

Option A: Activation failure halts setup, not skips screens.

Option B: Release prevents MDM control, not skips.

Option D: No “Skip all” option exists.

Option C: Correct—MDM streamlines setup.References: Apple Support - "MDM Overview" (support.apple.com/HT204142).

To force quit an app via the Dock,Control-click(or right-click) its icon; if unresponsive, “Force Quit” appears in the contextual menu instead of “Quit.” Select it to terminate the app.

Option A: Shift-click doesn’t trigger this menu.

Option C: Fn-click isn’t a standard action.

Option D: Esc-click doesn’t work.

Option B: Correct per macOS convention.References: Apple Support - "Force quit apps on Mac" (support.apple.com/HT201276).

Health and Activity data on an iPhone is sensitive and tied to the Health app, which includes information like steps, workouts, and medical records. When backing up an iPhone to a Mac, this data is included only if the backup is encrypted. An encrypted backup, created using a password in Finder (macOS Catalina and later) or iTunes (older macOS versions), securely stores Health and Activity data alongside other sensitive information like saved passwords. If the user restored from an unencrypted backup, Health and Activity data would not be included, as unencrypted backups exclude this data by design for privacy reasons.

Option A is incorrect because the backup process doesn’t allow selective exclusion of Health and Activity data during creation; it’s an all-or-nothing inclusion with encryption.

Option B is incorrect because Health and Activity dataisbacked up to a computer if the backup is encrypted.

Option D is incorrect because the restore process doesn’t offer an option to deselect specific data types like Health and Activity; the backup either includes it (if encrypted) or doesn’t (if unencrypted).This behavior is consistent across iOS versions, including iOS 18 in 2025. For official confirmation, refer to Apple’s support article "What does iCloud back up?" (support.apple.com/HT207428) and "Back up iPhone using your Mac" (support.apple.com/HT201352), which note that Health data requires encryption.

In macOS Recovery’s Recovery app log,Detail Levelfilters messages (e.g., to show only errors), refining the view for troubleshooting.

Option A: Message Type isn’t a filter here.

Option C: Log Type isn’t an option.

Option D: Filter Level isn’t a term used.

Option B: Correct per Recovery interface.References: Apple Support - "Use macOS Recovery" (support.apple.com/HT201314).

Private Wi-Fi Addressrandomizes the MAC address per network, preventing tracking across Wi-Fi connections.

Option A: App permissions are separate (TCC).

Option C: App Store status isn’t relevant.

Option D: MAC restriction is network-side, not device-side.

Option B: Correct—enhances privacy.References: Apple Support - "Use private Wi-Fi addresses" (support.apple.com/HT211227).

Windows Migration Assistant is a software that helps you transfer your contacts, calendars, email accounts, and more from your Windows PC to your Mac. It copies but does not delete files from your PC. You need to download and install the appropriate version of Windows Migration Assistant on your PC, depending on which macOS your Mac is using. Then you need to connect your Mac and PC to the same network, such as your home Wi-Fi network or an Ethernet cable. Finally, you need to use Migration Assistant on both your Mac and PC to start the transfer process. References: = Transfer from PC to Mac with Migration Assistant, Download Windows Migration Assistant v2.4.5.0 (Monterey, Ventura and Sonoma)

 When you install an application on a Mac, the installer creates a log file that records the progress and any errors that occur during the installation process. You can use the Console app to view the install log and troubleshoot any issues that may prevent the installation fromcompleting successfully. To access the install log, you need to launch the Console app from the Applications > Utilities folder, or use Spotlight to search for it. Then, in the Console app, choose Install Log from the Log Reports section in the sidebar. You will see a list of install log files, each with a date and time stamp. You can select the most recent one or the one that corresponds to the installation you are having trouble with. The install log file will show you the details of the installation, such as the source, destination, package name, version, size, and status. It will also show you any errors or warnings that occurred during the installation, such as permission issues, network issues, or corrupted files. You can use the information in the install log to identify the cause of the installation failure and take appropriate actions to resolve it. References: Use the Console app on your Mac, How to view the install log on a Mac, Fix Installation Failed the Installer Encountered an Error on Mac

To create a bootable macOS installer that includes macOS Recovery on an external storage device, you need to use the Mac OS Extended format, also known as HFS+. This is because the createinstallmedia command, which is used to create the bootable installer, requires the volume to be formatted as Mac OS Extended. APFS (Apple File System) is not supported by createinstallmedia, and neither are the encrypted versions of APFS or Mac OS Extended. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Mac OS Extended. References: Create a bootable installer for macOS, How to create a bootable USB macOS installer, How to format the startup drive for a Mac

 Notify When Left Behind is a Find My feature that is available only on MacBook models with Apple silicon.

Notify When Left Behind requires a Mac with Apple silicon and an iPhone or iPad with iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 or later. References: = Apple - Support - Manuals, Find My User Guide, Notify When Left Behind; Apple - Support - Manuals, Set up Touch ID on iPad; How to use the new Notify When Left Behind feature in iOS 15.

 According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, one of the basic troubleshooting steps for peripheral devices is to unplug and reconnect the device1. This can force the Mac to reinitialize the connection and reload any device-specific drivers. Other options, such as connecting the peripheral to a USB hub, unplugging other devices on the same bus, or connecting the peripheral to another Mac, may not necessarily reinitialize the connection or reload the drivers, and may introduce other issues or complications. References: 1: Apple Device Support Reference Materials, Section 2.3.1, "Basic Troubleshooting Steps".

 To manually configure VPN in Network settings on a Mac, you need to click the Action pop-up menu on the right, choose Add VPN Configuration, then choose the type of VPN connection you want to set up. This option allows you to enter the VPN server address, account name, and any authentication settings, such as a password or a certificate. The other options are not related to adding a VPN configuration. Add Service is used to add a new network service, such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Manage Virtual Interfaces is used to create or edit VLANs or link aggregations. Set Service Order is used to change the order of network services in the list. References: Set up a VPN connection on Mac - Apple Support

 To limit AirPlay Receiver to devices signed in to your Apple ID, you need to go to System Settings, then select Apple ID. In the Apple ID settings, you will see a section called Sharing. There, you can enable or disable AirPlay Receiver, and choose who can use it. You can select Current User, Everyone, or Specific Users. If you select Current User, only devices signed in to your Apple ID can use AirPlay Receiver. This option helps you prevent unauthorized access to your Mac from other devices on the same network1. References: Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 11.

According to the Apple Support website, you can manually configure a VPN connection on your Mac by choosing one of the following VPN protocols: L2TP over IPSec, Cisco IPSec, or IKEv2. L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is an extension of PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) used by internet service providers to enable a VPN over the internet. IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is a set of security protocols. IKEv2 (Internet Key Exchange) is a protocol that sets up a security association in IPSec. The other options, SSTP, Wireguard, and OpenVPN, are not supported by macOS System Settings, and require third-party software to use. References: 1 Set up a VPN connection on Mac - Apple Support

To determine if Melody’s printers were configured manually or by an MDM solution, you should go to Privacy & Security > Profiles in System Settings. This is where you can see the profiles that are installed on the Mac, which may include printer settings. If there are any profiles that contain the Printing or AirPrint payload, then the printers were configured by an MDM solution. Otherwise, the printers were configured manually by the user or an administrator. References: Printing MDM payload settings for Apple devices - Apple Support, AirPrint MDM payload settings for Apple devices - Apple Support, Intro to mobile device management profiles - Apple Support

Resetting the printing system on a Mac can resolve problems such as print jobs stuck in the queue, connection issues, and incomplete driver setups. This process deletes all printers fromyour list of printers, deletes information about all completed print jobs, and deletes all printer presets. All printers and scanners must be set up again after completing the reset. To reset the printing system, you need to control-click the printer in the Printers list on the right, then choose Reset Printing System from the shortcut menu. You will be prompted to confirm that you want to reset your entire printing system. References: Reset the printing system on your Mac to solve a problem, HP printers - Reset the printing system (macOS)

This is the correct setting to check if an iPhone is managed by an organization, such as ACME. A profile is a file that contains settings and policies that can be installed on an iPhone to control its features and behavior. A profile can be installed by an organization to manage the device remotely, or by the user to customize the device. A profile can also indicate that the device is supervised, which means that the organization has more control over the device and can apply extra restrictions. To see if an iPhone has a profile installed, go to Settings > General > Profile & Device Management. If there is no profile, this section will not appear. If there is a profile, tap on it to see what type of changes are made. To learn more about the features changed for your specific organization, ask your administrator whether these settings are enforced. References: Delete unknown configuration profiles from your iPhone or iPad, Get started with a supervised iPhone or iPad, See who has access to your iPhone or iPad, How to check if an iPhone is locked or unlocked

The Apple program that you should join if you’re in charge of testing your organization’s infrastructure and its ability to work with the Apple software before public release is Apple Seed for IT. This beta-testing program, available to any business organization or educational institution, allows you to evaluate the latest prerelease software versions in your unique work environments. You can test the compatibility, stability, and security of your IT infrastructure and business-critical apps with the upcoming releases of macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS. You can also provide feedback directly to Apple and influence the development of the software1.

The other options are not suitable for this purpose, as they have different goals and requirements. Design for IT is a program that helps you design and implement solutions for Apple devices in your organization, but it does not provide access to prerelease software2. Apple Developer Program is a program that lets you distribute apps on the App Store and access developer resources, but it does not offer a dedicated channel for testing your organization’s infrastructure3. Apple Developer Enterprise Program is a program that allows you to develop and deploy proprietary, internal-use apps to your employees, but it does not allow you to test the compatibility of those apps with the latest Apple software4.

The Files app is an app that lets you browse, organize, and manage files stored on your device, iCloud Drive, and external storage devices. The Files app supports different storage formats forexternal storage devices, such as USB drives and SD cards. According to Apple, the supported formats are EX-FAT, MS-DOS (FAT), Mac OS Extended (HFS+), and APFS1. These formats allow the Files app to read and write files on the external storage devices. The Files app does not support NTFS, which is a format used by Windows. NTFS is not compatible with the Files app, and the Files app can only read files from NTFS-formatted devices, but not write or modify them2. To use an NTFS-formatted device with the Files app, you need to reformat it to one of the supported formats using a Mac or PC. References: Connect external storage devices to iPhone - Apple Support, The Complete Guide to Using External Storage on iOS and iPadOS - Gizmodo

You can share your screen to show apps, webpages, photos, and more, while seeing and hearing the reactions of others on the call. You can also stream online content from supported apps, such as Apple TV, Disney+, and Spotify, and control the playback and volume for everyone. Shareplay works across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV, and you can join or leave the session at any time. To use Shareplay, you need to have a device that meets the minimum system requirements, an Apple ID, and a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. References: SharePlay - Apple, Share your screen in FaceTime on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

 iOS 17 is the latest version of the operating system for iPhone, and it brings new features and enhancements to the devices that support it. However, not all iPhone models are compatible with iOS 17. According to Apple, iOS 17 is compatible with the iPhone XS and newer, meaning that support has been dropped for the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X. Additionally, some web sources suggest that the iPhone 7 and iPhone 6s are also not compatible with iOS 17, although this has not been officially confirmed by Apple. Therefore, to prepare for the iOS 17 upgrade, you should replace the iPhone 6s and iPhone 7 models in your organization’s inventory, as they are likely to be incompatible with the new software. The iPhone SE (2nd generation) and iPhone SE (3rd generation) are compatible with iOS 17, as they have the sameprocessor as the iPhone 11 and iPhone 13, respectively. The iPhone X is also compatible with iOS 17, as it has the same processor as the iPhone XS. References: iPhone models compatible with iOS 17 - Apple Support, Will My iPhone Run iOS 17? - MacRumors, iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 Are Now Available - How-To Geek, iOS 17 Release Date, Compatibility and Confirmed Features from WWDC23

 A warning icon might appear in the Security Recommendation window for a password in Passwords settings if the password meets any of the following criteria:

The password is reused on another website. This means that the same password is used for more than one saved password across different domains. This can make the accounts vulnerable to credential-stuffing attacks, where attackers try the same credentials on other services to compromise additional accounts1.

The password appeared in a data leak. This means that the password has been compromised by a data breach and exposed online. This can allow attackers to access the accounts that use the leaked password or try to guess other passwords based on the leaked one1.

It’s a commonly used password or it’s easily guessed. This means that the password is weak and may be easily cracked by an attacker. This can happen if the password uses wordsfound in a dictionary, common character substitutions, patterns found on a keyboard, or repeated sequences. These patterns are often used to create passwords that satisfy minimum password requirements for services, but are also commonly used by attackers attempting toobtain a password using brute force1. References: 1: Password security recommendations - Apple Support

To view the current activity of Apple Configurator for Mac, you can access the Activity window from the menu bar. The Activity window shows you the background tasks that Apple Configurator is performing, such as downloading software updates, preparing devices, or installing profiles. You can also pause, resume, or cancel any activity from this window1. The other options, double-clicking the device and selecting Activity, or choosing View Activity from the Apple Configurator menu, are not valid ways to access the Activity window. References: 1 View log messages and activity in Apple Configurator - Apple Support

You can compose your email as usual, and then long-press the send button (an upward arrow) to see the options for scheduling. You can choose from the suggested times, or tap “Send Later” to set a custom date and time. The scheduled email will appear in a separate mailbox called “Send Later”, where you can view or delete it. The email will be sent automatically at the scheduled time, as long as your iPhone is on. References: How to Schedule Emails on Your iPhone - How-To Geek, Schedule an Email in Apple Mail on Your iPhone (iOS 16), How to schedule emails on iPhone, iPad, and Mac to send later, How to Schedule Email in the Mail App on iPhone - Guiding Tech, How to Schedule Emails on an iPhone - groovyPost

If an app on your iPhone stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open, one of the possible solutions is to force the app to close and reopen the app. This can help clear any temporary issues that may cause the app to malfunction. To force the app to close, you need to swipe up from the bottom of the screen until all running app cards appear, then swipe up on the app card to quit the app. To reopen the app, you need to tap the app icon on the Home Screen or in the App Library. The other options are not recommended as the first steps to troubleshoot an unresponsive app, as they may have unwanted consequences or not address the root cause of the problem.

Deleting the app and redownloading it from the App Store may result in losing data that was stored in the app, and it may not fix the problem if the app is incompatible with your device or software version.

Resetting all settings will erase all your customized settings, such as network, privacy, accessibility, and general preferences, and restore them to the default values. This may not fix the problem if the app is corrupted or has a bug.

Restarting the device may help resolve some minor glitches, but it may not fix the problem if the app is conflicting with another app or service, or if the app needs an update. References:

This is the correct answer because these are the four folders that normally appear at the root level of the storage volume in the Finder on a Mac. The root level is the topmost level of the filesystem hierarchy, denoted by /. The Applications folder contains all the applications installed on the Mac, the Library folder contains system and user preferences, the System folder contains the operating system files, and the Users folder contains the home folders of each user account. These folders are essential for the functioning and organization of the Mac, and they should not be modified or deleted without a good reason. References: Access the Root Directory in Mac OS X in 4 Ways Quickly, Unix filesystem - Wikipedia, Working with APFS Volume Groups | Carbon Copy Cloner - Bombich

Activity Monitor is an app that shows information about the processes running on your Mac, including how much CPU, memory, disk, network, and energy they use.

You can also sort the processes by different columns, such as CPU, Memory, or Energy, to see which ones are using the most resources. You can also choose different tabs to see different types of processes, such as CPU, Memory, Disk, Network, or Cache. Activity Monitor is a useful tool for troubleshooting performance issues on your Mac and optimizing its efficiency. References: Use Activity Monitor on your Mac, How to see all the running programs on your Mac, How to See Which Program Is Using All Your CPU on Mac, How to track and kill processes on your Mac

For Handoff to work on both devices, Guillermo needs to turn on Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and sign in with the same Apple ID on his Mac and iPad. Handoff is a feature that allows users to start something on one device and then complete it on another. For example, Guillermo can start working on a Keynote presentation on his Mac and then continue annotating it on his iPad. To use Handoff, both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network, have Bluetooth turned on, and be signed in with the same iCloud account. These are the prerequisites for Handoff to work. Turning on iCloud Drive or AirPlay is not necessary for Handoff. iCloud Drive is a cloud storage service that syncs files across devices, but it is not required for Handoff. AirPlay is a feature that streams audio and video from one device to another, but it is not related to Handoff. References: Use Handoff to transfer Keynote presentations - Apple Support, How to Set Up and Use Handoff on Your iPhone and iPad - How-To Geek

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, you can change the undo send delay setting on your iPad by going to Settings > Mail > Undo Send Delay1. This setting allows you to unsend an email within a certain time frame after you tap the send button. You can choose from Off, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, or 30 seconds. The other options, A, B, and C, are not correct because they are not the correct paths to access the undo send delay setting. General > Mail > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path in the iPad settings2. Open your mail app then open settings and select Undo Send Delay is not a valid option because the mail app does not have its own settings menu3. Settings > Mail > Accounts > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path because the Accounts section does not have an undo send delay option4. References: 1: Unsend email with Undo Send in Mail on iPad - Apple Support, Section "Delay sending emails". 2: General settings on iPad - Apple Support 3: Mail settings overview for iPad - Apple Support 4: Manage email accounts in Mail on iPad - Apple Support

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, you can control who can discover your iPhone or iPad when it’s within AirDrop range by setting AirDrop to Contacts Only1. This means that only people in your Contacts app can see your device and send you content via AirDrop. You can also set AirDrop to Receiving Off, which means that no one can see your device or send you content via AirDrop1. The other two options, B and C, are not correct because they are not related to AirDrop settings. Requiring a verification code from the other device in Password & Security settings is a feature that helps you sign in to your Apple IDaccount on a new device2. Turning off AirDrop in Privacy settings is not possible, as AirDrop is not listed under Privacy settings3. References: 1: How to use AirDrop on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support, Section "How to adjust AirDrop settings". 2: Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support, Section "Use a verification code with two-factor authentication". 3: Privacy settings on iPhone - Apple Support
