Microsoft Intune and Device Registration Error

The device registration errors in Microsoft Intune can be misleading.  Here are some common errors you may encounter during the device registration and enrollment process. 

Error #1

Device not added

This service is not supported

Error: MdmAuthorityNotDefined

This service is not supported, MdmAuthorityNotDefined, A connection to the server could not be established etc errors during an Apple device enrollment.  In my case, it was a test device. I have used this device with different user account, Intune subscription etc. 

Possible solution / workaround

  1. In my case, this was due to duplicate/already enrolled device information in Intune.  Everything started working once I removed the existing device entry from Intune. 
  2. You will get the same error message, if you have an existing Management Profile in your device.

Thank you Santhosh! This article got me out of a jam I was in. More evidence I've been away from the desktop world too long (getting lost in Oracle and LDAP...).
