Guide on how to repair (and properly install) OCLP when I have Windows (Bootcamp) installed and present in the EFI boot menu
Image
I already found this github post with some pointers: https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/issues/972#issuecomment-1046126535 Current situation: I had my internal disk with a GUID partition map, with 3 partitions: APFS for MacOS, NTFS for WIndows, and an Unknown 3rd partition of 471.9 MB (I guess this is the EFI partitions). Until I installed OCLP, i had MacOS and Windows in the boot menu when holding down the Options key at boot. After I installed OCLP and asked it to install itself on the internal disk, I now only have "Windows" as a label, which is actually the MacOS via OCLP (see above link) and no separate actual Windows, so I can't boot into Windows any more. Can a kind soul please outline some ELI5 steps to fix all this such that: - I can boot without any USB drive (install OCLP on the internal disk) - I get both MacOS and Windows in the boot menu via the Option key (and so I can actually boot into either MacOS or Windows) - Make the MacOS entry...
What upgrades can I do on my MacBook Pro mid 2009?

Sonoma or OCLP Bug? Preview doesn't release opened (but now closed) file
Image
Seems too obvious to be an unfixed Sonoma Preview problem but I can't see how it is an OCLP problem either. Mount an external drive with 3 partitions on it, use Preview to view files which are then closed. I can't unmount one of the partitions, no error message, one time the driver icon vanished, other times it just stays there. Using lsof on the command line (sudo lsof /Volumes/MyVolume) shows a list of files kept open by Preview (the files were not open or visible). Closing and reopening Preview allows my drive to be cleanly unmounted. submitted by /u/PenguinsAreGo [link] [comments] [► Source]
Just installed a Ventura on MBP mid 2012 with 16gb of ram and 512 ssd

I’m not sure, but it feels much slower compared to High Sierra. Is there any way to optimize it? Or are there any settings I can tweak? I’d really appreciate your help. submitted by /u/Living_Finding733 [link] [comments] [► Source]
Mac Pro 5,1: Login keeps cycling (see video)
Image
I shouldn’t have done it! I upgraded to Seqouia 15.4.2. 🤬 When I was on Seqouia 15.4.1 with OCLP 2.3.2, everything was fine. I just hate seeing those red alerts from Apple. When the upgrade (Seqouia 15.4.2)was in progress, OCLP didn’t suggest nor advise an update to its software (OCLP). Now eversince the upgrade, this happens. I have tried to HOLD SHIFT, but screen is completely blank. The only thing I can seem to get on screen is Recovery mode (CMD+R). Please help. Thank you in advance. submitted by /u/hey_ant [link] [comments] [► Source]
Sanoma 👌🏼

Ok so using open core to install sanoma on my old 2013 MacBook Pro. Fix all the issues I had with it. Put a ssd on it to make it even faster and usable. But no one tells you if you go a step further and also start running windows on it through boot camp. It becomes as fast and as snappy as a new pc wow. Windows 10 runs perfectly and faster that my Mac OS submitted by /u/ApprehensiveLeg2357 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hello everyone, I am using macOS Sequoia 15.4 on my MacBook Pro 13" (Mid 2014, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD), and it is little bit slow. I've searched web and it looks like ventura is best option for using OCLP on old macs. Should I go back to ventura? submitted by /u/wgpororo [link] [comments] [► Source]
How to upgrade a MacBook without a GPU?
Image
Hello! I have a 2011 MacBook Pro, and the graphics card is faulty. That's why we disabled the graphics card. I want to install Big Sur or Monterey using OpenCore, but when I do, there is about a 20-second delay with the keyboard and mouse. When I move the mouse, it gets detected after approximately 20 seconds. However, the system animations work fine, so the issue is with detecting the inputs. Is there a solution for this? submitted by /u/Savings_Net_8216 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Volta on Sequoia?
Image
Anyone got Volta working on sequoia? All the settings are greyed out for me no matter what I do, the SIP is disabled but per the OCLP gui it is 0xfef which means ALLOW_APPLE_INTERNAL remains enabled even though all are checked (should be 0xfff) so not sure if Volta is requiring full SIP disabled which I cannot figure out how to do or if there's some other issue going on with it? Im on MacBook Pro 2015 15" with dGPU on sequoia 15.4.1 OCLP 2.3.2. Any help would be appreciated submitted by /u/wardamnpremed [link] [comments] [► Source]
mac pro 2008 i got for cheap and with 4 hdds, and ram included.
Image
Lovely computer, updated from a 710 to a HD 7550. It's constantly screaming for mercy when it comes to graphics but it's not really notable and its really smooth either way. I even play a game on it (and it runs at a solid 60 fps from what my eyes can tell) as you can see from my dock. I still have dual boot on this though, since it's got 4 drives in it, i've got another drive on El Capitan, while this one is on Ventura. Not updating to latest since i'm used to Ventura and have loved it so far. (and i'm pretty sure the graphics card is going to scream at me louder in sequoia.) submitted by /u/OkConsideration7073 [link] [comments] [► Source]
Got this bad boy alongside with its core i5 brother for $1k mxn (around $50 usd) and loving it so far, this one came with 2 hdd's... 500gb ssd and 1tb hdd and couldn't be happier. Just need your advice. Got it running sequoia last beta. What ram do you recommend to upgrade to 16gb? Thanks guys.

Trying to run Sequoia on a late 2012 Mac Mini but the wi-fi stops working and the graphic patches create a bug
Image
A month ago I bought an old mini so I can develop in xCode. Internet tutorials led me to use OLP to update the little dinossaur to use Sequoia, which works fine until the firmware updates take down my internet connection. Seeing as the OLP recommends installing the Graphics and WLAN patches, I tried that and now the screen is completely black and I can't even see if my connectivity issues were solved. Does anyone else face these issuee? submitted by /u/32andahalf [link] [comments] [► Source]

2009 macbook sonoma video issues

I just upgraded my 2009 macbook from monterrey to sonoma. After the upgrade I have video issues in certain apps that I use. For example, In karafun 2.10.1 (Requires macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later) the lyrics for the video do not show on the screen. on 1.9.6 (older version) video works fine. Is there a setting that I can change that could possibly resolve this? https://preview.redd.it/vdh20psuj6xe1.png?width=282&format=png&auto=webp&s=0d2078a76496e16518589b57343746375460d208 https://preview.redd.it/auheo7qdj6xe1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=d82ce7831ab1bf8f24ed2a91f14e54b4142bc066 submitted by /u/voltch [link] [comments] [► Source]

Is it normal that the EFI Partition doesn‘t contain any files? (trying to uninstall OCLP)

I want to uninstall OCLP because of performance issues, it was just really slow (on Ventura, Big Sur was faster, but still).

Whole screen glitched after updating
Image
I patched a 2011 iMac to Sequoia a few weeks ago, and it was working fine up until today when I tried to install a software update. Once the update finished, I got a prompt from opencore to update the root patch (whatever that means), so I did. But as soon as it restarted, everything went to shit as seen in this photo. It still boots up and I can sort of make out the ui, but it’s completely unusable now with all the artifacting. I’m not knowledgeable enough to understand what went wrong. Can anyone help me? submitted by /u/SRC475 [link] [comments] [► Source]
RX480 4GB not booting into Sequoia, but 8800 GT boots no problem. 4,1-5,1 2009 Mac Pro
Image
I recently upgraded my Mac Pro from Ventura to Sequoia in the most recent update of OCLP. My RX480 4GB worked with no issues in Ventura, but to access the boot screens I had to have the 8800 GT in place. The upgrade went smoothly and I was into Sequoia with my 8800 GT with root patches for Nvidia Tesla from OCLP. I revert the root patches and shut down to install the RX480. I power it on, the chime plays, and it gets stuck on a black screen with the Apple logo with a loading bar that eventually doesn't progress over half way. I tried to enable debug settings and to disable AMFI in OCLP. Looking around the internet, I haven't found any answers for which SIP may or may not help the situation. It seems like a root patching error because in the most recent update of OCLP, it says the AMD Polaris GPUs need a root patch in Sequoia.

Main volume cannot be mounted
Image
So where do I begin? The last time I tried to update my late 2013 MBP 11,1 was about a year ago. I simply wanted to advance to Ventura so that I could update my Microsoft stack. I’m pretty good at following instructions, can R TFM and can certainly benefit from a good YouTube tutorial. Nevertheless I screwed it up, had to completely re image my laptop and lost my bootcamp drive in the process. Undaunted, I created a new bootcamp. Installed Windows 10…even bought a licence. I was understandably petrified about doing this again, so it took me a year to retry, but retry I did. This time it went slightly better. I managed to get Ventura installed….mostly. It wouldn’t do the root patches….complained about not being able to mount the volume. Therefore I had no graphics acceleration and the screen and font was stuck at the default tiny (in fact giant) resolution. Rebooting required the USB stick, the EFI could not be installed onto the HD. I had an unworkable solution. Worse than ...
Macbook air 7,2 can't use airplay to share screen or use as extended display
Image
I am using a macbook air 7,2 that is moderately spoofed as a 9,1 macbook. It is running macos 15.1 and I have OCLP 2.3.2. It is able to connect to displays, but when it does, it just displays a dark gray screen instead of what I'm trying to screen share. I can however connect to my ipad and use my trackpad and keyboard on it, but I still have the same issue for using as an extended display or screen sharing. It is able to receive other devices' screen shares though submitted by /u/Firenub13 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Bootcampdrivers (modded AMD-Drivers) in crossover?
Image
I have been dual booting MacOS 15 and Windows 11 for some time now and sometimes it's just annoying to use two different environments for different tasks. We all know gaming is still very hard on MacOS but there are some alternatives like crossover to that. So my question is: Can you install the modded bootcampdrivers from " https://www.bootcampdrivers.com " in crossover so I can still use the windows performance inside of MacOS? I know Windows itself and crossover work differently but I'm sure there is some genius who got it working. submitted by /u/LachiJailbreak [link] [comments] [► Source]

Hey all, I guess an update installed last night, when i booted it had the white background, i went to install root patches and the computer froze halfway through. i left it alone for an hour, nothing moved couldn’t move the mouse or anything. so I probably messed up and reset it. since then the boot screen loads to about 40% & stops. I have a lot of work stuff on here, but i’m feeling only option is to wipe and reinstall macos? submitted by /u/Pandas7 [link] [comments] [► Source]
