Safe macOS Update Procedure for OCLP Users
Accidentally clicking 'Update' in System Settings can brick a patched Mac if OpenCore is not updated first to support the new macOS build.
Safe Update Steps:
- Update OCLP App First: Always download and install the latest release of OCLP from GitHub before updating the OS.
- Build OpenCore to Disk: Click Build and Install OpenCore and install it to your internal drive EFI partition.
- Apply OS Update: Go to System Settings and install the update. Re-apply root patches immediately after boot.
Original Question: "Need help - installation after accidental update"
A friend of mine bought this MBP mid-2012, I ugraded the RAM to 8GB and everything worked fine... until two days ago when he clicked UPDATE TO TAHOE from the system settings.
I am currently trying to reinstall, actually install Sequoia since it is a supported OS but it is currently stuck on the apple logo.
Any idea how to fix that? yes, i have formatted the drive before.
The bootableUSB has been created on my MBP 2015.
