Hello, I haven't upgraded my operating system since 2018. Recently I have been seeing videos of successful upgrades and I want to join in.

iMessage / FaceTime & other Apple ecosystem features only work with VPN enabled
Image
Hi everyone, I've recently stumbled upon this issue on my year-old hackintosh (running MacOS Sonoma 14.6) where services like iMessage & FaceTime don't work unless I have a VPN enabled . Apple store works just fine. This doesn't seem like an issue with my home's public IP being banned as it also happens outside my home. I've tested with a VPN provider (Wireguard) & my own servers using both Wireguard and OpenVPN and achieve the same results: iMessage messages go through, my iPhone (iOS 17.6) DND syncs with my hackintosh, and I also get the calls and SMS messages from my iPhone on macOS. I've also noticed a weird behaviour with Handoff: It only works one-way, from my iPhone to the hackintosh, not the other way around. I can copy files/text from my phone and paste it on my hackintosh and get open safari tabs on mac as well WITHOUT VPN. Other way around still doesn't work with VPN on. I'm using the latest itlwm kext ( AirportItlwm_v2.3.0_stable...
OCLP 1.6.0 Nightly - Unsupported Host OS
Image
Hi all, I recently updated to sequoia beta on my Hackintosh with a Broadcom chip. I'm using the nightly version of OCLP, but keep running into the unsupported Host OS warning when I try to install the Wifi Patches. Everything else seems to be running just fine. Would love to see if anyone has been able to get around this warning. As suggested by someone, I tried running sudo mount -uw / to try and edit my build to something supported, but I keep getting the permission denied message.

Monterey on mid 2009 imac (help)
Image
Hi, ive been trying to get open core to work on my mid 2009 imac for about a week and ive had a few issues. At first when installing and doing everything to book using a usb flash drive on the machine it would install and then get stuck at the apple logo with message reading "less than one min remaining" I would let this sit like this for 4-5 hours and at about 4 hrs when i pressed the caps lock key and didnt see a green light, i knew it was frozen. I got around this by opening up a (i think mid) 2015 imac and installing the s sd that was in the 2009 into the 2015, this worked and i was able to install Monterey on it with no issues, however when going to transfer that same ssd to the 2009 imac. it turns on and get stuck with the apple logo, and a bar about 1/3 way finished. im wondering if this could be because i only have 2gb of ram, or something in the settings of open core, if anyone has any idea how i could get this to work, it would be appreciated. submitted by ...

Installing on a computer with data etc on it - does it wipe the drive, or will it be like an upgrade install?
Image
Assuming MacMini 2011/2012 iwth SSD running High Sierra. If I upgrade to Monterery or Ventura using OCLP - will all the data/users etc be there, or does the process wipe the drive? It's not totally clear to me from reading the docs. (I know I should back up before doing it). Any common gotcha's or risks one should know about?

iMac Late 2013 27“ won’t boot from 3. Party SSD
Image
Hi guys, I got a free iMac Late 2013 27" that came with a HDD. I had to remove the hard disk for destruction. So I disassembled the iMac, installed a third party nvme ssd with adapter and realized that the firmware is too old to boot from. The hard drive was recognized by the Sonoma installer I created with OCLP, but the installer with the grey hdd icon did not show up even after many attempts. I read on the internet that firmware can only be updated with original Apple SSDs. Luckily, I still had one lying around from a 2015 MacBook Pro that I successfully upgraded. So I took the damn thing apart again, installed the original SSD and finally I was able to install Sonoma and boot normally. Now I have installed the third party ssd again and the same problem persists. I actually wanted to use the Mac for Linux, but even there, I can't boot. Please save me from wasting countless more hours. I hope you can help me. submitted by /u/Long_Ad_4906 [link] [com...

I decided to skip windows and go to Hackintosh OpenCore on BigSur, everything works like the USB ports the sd card reader but the only thing that doesn't work is the touchscreen.

How to increase VRAM and Open Hardware Acceleration of AMD APU

Hi. I'm trying to make a hackintosh on my HP Probook 455G9 with AMD 5825U APU (Vega 8 Integrated). The problem is BIOS is locked for changing the VRAM even though I have 16GB RAM and NootedRed.

OFFICIAL! "macOS Sequoia and OpenCore Legacy Patcher Support"

Found this browsing Github and as I didn't see it posted here (apologies if I missed it) thought it would be of interest.

This time with macOS 15, Sequoia, and a surprising lack of dropped hardware compared to previous years 🎉.
