Hello, I have just managed to install OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 on an old Macbook pro 8, 1, which previously had Mac OS X Lion on. I can't get anymore updates via the Appstore so am I able to use Patcher to upgrade to a more recent software version and if so which one should I use, please? Many thanks. submitted by /u/tictoc2009 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hello! So now my Safari won’t fully load 🙂 I’m not sure what happened, but after updating to Ventura 13.7.8, pages only load halfway. My wifi is fine, and everything works on other browsers. Are there any fixes for Safari? I’ve already run the post install root patch several times based on what I found during my research. I also tried disconnecting my wifi. I’m used to using Safari, so I really don’t want to switch. Please help submitted by /u/CharityDefiant8294 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Is there a way, script to do it? I am running Macbook Pro mid 2015 with Sequoia. It works fantastic, no need for any better next year or two. Maybe OCLP app can be updated with such option to receive updates for current OS, but not for upgrades? submitted by /u/lovrenco [link] [comments] [► Source]

Background: I had an iMac stored away for years that I wanted to give to my father. But while transporting it to him, the airline crushed it so badly that it looked like a chocolate bar melting. And nah, they ain't paying for it. The aluminum got bent... and the speakers and the screen got crushed. But the logic board and everything else seemed OK so I removed the broken screen and decided to plug an external monitor for him. PROBLEM: I didn't know that the kernel would panic thinking it was overheating, I tried buying that thermal cable that was originally plugged into the screen from China but it didn't seem to work. I ran voltageshfit and forced the CPU to be at 4.1ghz constantly as opposed to the 800mhz it was stuck at. It kinda worked but since the kernel is panicking the CPU usage is always between 60 and 90% and the performance is poor. The fans were always at 100% but I controlled it with Mac Fan Control. I was told that Open Core won't work with the 19...

Guys, I need help. I updated my iMac (Late 2015) to Sequoia, but it kept showing the Tahoe update. I accidentally pressed the update, and it happened really quickly. After that, Tahoe opened, but only the wallpaper showed. I asked ChatGPT, and it gave me a solution, but I followed it (stupid me) and erased the HDD. I think I also erased the OCLP. Now it’s showing the blocked sign with the URL: https://support.apple.com/mac/startup . I checked the website and followed the shortcut, and now it’s loading. Guys, please help me. What should I do after the recovery panel pops up? submitted by /u/Ok-Masterpiece9836 [link] [comments] [► Source]

common consensus here seems to be that monterey works best on this particular machine. woulda stayed on high sierra for a more responsive UI but i opted for the performance hit so that i could use the web without dual booting to debian so much. having said that, i'd like to ask if i can push for an even newer os for better software support + security down the line. some here even mention going all the way to sequoia on this old thing... if anyone has any experience regarding the matter i'd appreciate your thoughts submitted by /u/SolemnCube [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hi guys! I posted here yesterday that I just got my MBA 2017 and was curious about OCLP. I successfully installed macOS Ventura on my device without using a USB flash drive! I chose Ventura because I was worried about possible lag or heating issues, which I didn’t experience on Monterey yesterday. Please give me some tips—what should I turn on or turn off, and what should and shouldn’t I do? Right after installing the post-install root patch, I first turned off all auto updates. 🫶 please gimme tips!! tysm everyone submitted by /u/CharityDefiant8294 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hi, I have a 2014 Mac mini, 250GB SSD, 8GB of RAM, and it's running Monterey, but for school I need apps that require a more recent version. What do you recommend, Sonoma or Sequoia? submitted by /u/Old-Plenty-7391 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Alright, not an expert on OCLP , but since the Red Screen of Death has been very annoying as a new Mac Pro user, I've been really keeping up with the OCLP threads regarding updates/issues. I have a Mac Pro 6,1 that is running on the Sequoia Betas (current is 15.7.4) I've spent an insane amount of time getting Google Chrome to work with my computer, so I thought I'd share a bit of insight on a workaround since I have spent days on this. First off, this is very much a 'Give a Mouse a Cookie' scenario. The easiest option and most logical step is to disable "Use graphics acceleration when available" setting within Chrome's preferences (Three dots->Settings->System). However, there seem to be many issues with Chrome being laggy when this is disabled, SPECIFICALLY using any HiDPI (or upscaling) monitors. ((Separate issue, but this is very prevalent if you are using the app 'BetterDisplay' to manage your display resolution... highly recommen...

soo ya I got an update after doing OLCP on my Mid 2015 mac book pro 15in submitted by /u/OliveOSUGD [link] [comments] [► Source]

I have an iMac14,1 that was experiencing booting issues with the latest Sequoia: basically it would hang very early in the boot process (Apple logo with loading bar at around 1%). I would only work after 2 or 3 (sometimes even more) forced shutdowns… This iMac originally came with a 1 TB HDD, so I upgraded it with an NVMe SSD, but since those drives mounts on the motherboard I left the original HDD inside and connected just in case I needed some older version of macOS/OS X. When I was able to boot into macOS it would give me the “You shutdown your computer because of a problem…” message along with the report. I copied that and gave to AI which said that the old internal HDD was probably failing and causing an error with the APFS probing or something like that… I really didn’t want to open my iMac again since it’s really time consuming and you have to buy new adhesive… but in the end (after some troubleshooting) I found out that it wasn’t the HDD that was bad, it was my OC configurati...
