Hello All,

I have a 2017 5K iMac 27" that refuses to upgrade from Ventura to Sequoia. I keep getting the error 'This operation couldn't be completed. Permission denied.' I've tried twice now. At least it leaves my system intact and in working order as it was before I tried. One of the times I tried I had SIP turned off. Still didn't work.

Specs As Follows

iMac 18,3

2017 27" 5K iMac, 64GB RAM, 2TB Fusion Drive, 3.8Ghz Quad-Core Intel Core i5, Radeon Pro 580 8GB.

Machine runs flawlessly. Just want to upgrade it to Sequoia. Any and all help will be appreciated.

Hello, I would like to give my 2011 iMac a new life. I want to upgrade to macOS Sonoma using OCLP, but I would like to install the macOS system on a RAID 0 array. Is this possible?

I have already looked online and the answer I found was that it is unfortunately not possible because, when switching to the APFS format, Apple blocks this—even with Carbon Copy Cloner, which used to allow it on operating systems prior to Big Sur.

I would love to get your expertise on this!

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Hi, I want to hackintosh my old PC with a I5 3570S, 8gb ram DDR3 1666mhz, a GT 740 and a 128gb sata ssd, I want to put Monterey on it because it is the newest version compatible. I searched about the Kepler patcher but for my internet card the last version compatible was high sierra, but it could Monterey with oclp (oc simplify said it). I don’t know if using oclp and Kepler patcher would be safe (for gpu and for WiFi)

Hey,

Last week my 2015 MBP started acting up. It was hard to use the OS because windows took forever to move around and switch between. Window Server had 160% CPU usage.

I tried restarting and that didn't work. I tried having less windows open and that works but it is not a good solution, since this is my work laptop.

Anyone else running into this problem? I have no idea how to debug this since this is an OS process.

I've turned off translucency, motion, and even turn it to just 1 virtual desktop.

Things I've noticed:

* turning off apps that are known to be very inefficient like Slack or Telegram or Chrome helps. But I also need these things for work lol

Please help.

I checked the how to on the OCLP Website

Now i want to hear your experiences:

• to which OS did you update your A1707? And why?
• what does not work?

Running my macpro6,1 under Sequoia 15.7.7 via OCLP 2.4.1 without any issue.

Current config:
• E5-1620 v2 4-cores
• 64GB RAM
• D300
• 2TB OWC Aura Pro X2

I’m planning to upgrade it as follows:
• E5-2666 v2 8-cores
• 64GB RAM
• D700
• 2TB OWC Aura Pro X2

I’ve been told that with this CPU I’d get issues in stop/idle management, unless manually adding additional CpuFriend kexts.

Can anyone that went already through same upgrade confirm or deny such need? Have you experienced any challenge or issue linked to OCLP or how MacOS dialogues with the non-native CPU?

Users of similar models pls text your user experience. At moment on my laptop installed last version macOs Monterey.

Hi all, recently got given a 2017 MacBook Pro (non touch bar), Core i5, 8GB RAM, I'm wondering what the best version of MacOS to install using OCLP is ? Is Sequoia still the best version or is Tahoe compatible now ?

Did all that was needed, downloaded the installer, but now OpenCore says the Installer requires High Sierra? And I have no Idea what to do now.

First of all, thank you to everyone who takes the time to read this post.

I own a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2015) and recently upgraded it to macOS Sonoma using OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP). In addition, I changed the SMBIOS to MacBookPro15,2 in order to enable Universal Control.

Since completing the upgrade, I have encountered an issue with Wi-Fi reliability. Whenever I close the lid and allow the MacBook to remain asleep for a period of time, the Wi-Fi connection is lost upon waking. This has become quite frustrating in daily use.

I would like to know whether this is a known or expected side effect of running Sonoma on this model with a modified SMBIOS, and if there are any proven solutions or workarounds available.

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

在此先謝過點進貼文的各位

情況是這樣的，我是一台MacBook Pro（15-inch，Mid2015）機主，我目前幹的事：使用OCLP將macOS升級至Sonoma，並修改了SMBIOS至MacBookPro15,2為了能夠使用通用控制功能。在我更新完了之後出現了Wi-Fi無法持續連接的問題，一旦合上MacBook的蓋子稍久就會斷聯，讓我很苦惱，這是必然會出現的問題嗎？是否有解決的辦法？謝謝各位！

Hello!

I recently aquired a deffective 27 inch 2011 iMac. The graphics card was at fault. Before replacing it, I actually managed to get it up an running on MacOS Ventura, using OCLP patches for a Mac mini, in order to avoid the deffective AMD card and use the integrated card.

So i bought and replaced the broken AMD with a Nvidia K2100m. Thing is now I can't get it started at all. Ventura fails to install a gives me an "an erorr occured while preparing the update" message, and Big Sur will fully install, but can't boot. It either waits for a remote debugger connection or freezes at some random lines while booting (always something different).

Any ideas how to get around this? I also tried to make a High Sierra bootable stick on my M1 Macbook, but wasn't able to.

Hi all.

not use my mac a long time and found out that almost every app need newer version of OS

so I checked video about how install it on older models but everybody said you need only clean install to get it done right…

don’t wanna erase info from my SSD and want just update os. Anybody tried this with older models? Any issues or instability?

Thank you in advance.

Comprei um macbook novo e vou vender o antigo, um Macbook pro 2015 atualizado para o ventura com o OpenCore. Qual o procedimento para apagar tudo e deixar pronto para o novo usuario? Formatar e instalar todo o sistema novamente com OpenCore? ou tem uma forma mais prática?

I don't want to upgrade the MacBook Air with an OS and then find out it repeatedly freezes and/or crashes. I'm assuming Monterey is as high as I could probably go. I am going to upgrade the SSD to a 6TB from iFixit. Any suggestions for OS version?

Hello is it possible to switch a sata 3 cable on 2009 model from 2012 model and receive sata 3 speed with OCLP?

I’m just curious there is a one nearby on a marketplace for a bargain.

MacBookPro 15" 2015 on Sequoia 15.7.7 - When closing the lid and then reopening several hours later the MBP will not reconnect to the internet. I must reboot the MBP to get it to reconnect. Does anyone happen to have any suggestions? Thank you for your time.

Hey! So I just purchased a 2017 MacBook pro (2 thunderbolt ports) and was wondering how to update to Sequoia without a USB drive (since there are none available on the Mac itself) I’ve read that it’s possible but a little messy but I want to get the most out of my device. Everytime I run the installer it tells me to update to Tahoe which I’m aware is unavailable on Intel Macs.

If someone could help me it would be so nice
