Restoring Hardware Features in macOS Sequoia
If your Touch Bar and keyboard backlight stopped working after a clean install of Sequoia on your 2017 MacBook Pro, the HID and T1/T2 drivers are not loading correctly.
The Fix:
- Apple ID Login: You must be logged into an administrator account to apply root patches. If you can't log into iCloud, create a 'Local' admin account first.
- Post-Install Root Patch: Open OCLP and click Post-Install Root Patch. Ensure the 'Legacy HID' and 'Touch Bar' patches are selected.
- SMC Reset: A hardware reset of the SMC is essential for restoring backlight and Touch Bar functionality.
- Control Strip: Go to System Settings > Keyboard and ensure 'Touch Bar shows' is set to 'App Controls'.
Original Question: "Problems with OpenCore"
Hello, I decided to reinstall MacOS Sequoia on my MacBook Pro 15 (2017) with Touch Bar. After installation, the touch bar and keyboard backlight don't work. Installing root patches afterward doesn't help. I can't log into my Apple account, so nothing happens.
