OCLP 2.4.0 Has Issues (MacBook Pro 8,3 - 2011)
Image
Sorry, bit of a long context but I feel it's necessary. I got a 17 inch 2011 MBP with the anti-glare display, fully aware of all its flaws, simply because I like the design, plus it's the only 17 inch with a Quad Core CPU which should allow me to daily drive it for non-graphics related tasks (coming from an 11 inch 2015 Air with 8GB of Ram). Specs in the picture (+ Radeon HD 6750M). Need to get all that out of the way, I already know everything there is to know about this machine including all the negatives, I've wanted one since it came out and spent years hunting for one where I live. The thing is in immaculate condition. No dents or scratches, the battery had like 90 cycles when I got it, the keyboard is still matte meaning it hasn't been typed on too much, it even had the original 750GB hard drive when I got it which leads me to believe I was the first person to be inside it, yesterday when I was installing an SSD (I didn't upgrade the Ram to 16GB yet bu...

Acrobat Reader stuck installation
Image
Hi! MacBook Air 7,2 freshly installed Sequoia 15.5 (24F74) under OCLP 2.4.0 The problem: can't install Adobe Acrobat Reader, when it's "less than a minute" it freezes and doesn't finish. I need the sign documents with CAC, so I can't find a free alternative to do it. As far I know MacOs Preview can't sign with smart cards. I have tried to install the previous version. Same problem. Also do it in "safe mode", no luck. Any thoughts? submitted by /u/Evening_Anything_833 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Help with making a macosx boot drive
Image
As above, i am trying to use opencore to make bootable usb for mac os. Specifically im trying to make a mac el capitan installer for a imac from 2007. I am trying to follow the instructions on the guide, but I am kinda lost. Especially around the part where it says cloning the recovery dmg to the Smaller partition. How would I do this? Or achieve the same thing with the larger partition? submitted by /u/squidoeye23 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Display error after Sequoia update?

I successfully updated my MacBook Pro and I’m currently trying to update my work 2012 Mac mini, I got the installation on, but the Mac is not displaying on my screen properly, pic attached.

Wanting to install Sequoia onto my Late 2013 iMac. Any recommendations?
Image
Hey everyone. So I own a 21.5-inch Late 2013 iMac that runs on Catalina (the last officially supported OS), and have been thinking of using OpenCore to my computer running on Sequoia, as I am a little bit too short on change to purchase a new one that runs on the latest OS. I've also been watching a few videos and how-to guides on how to install on unsupported systems on old iMacs, but have been a bit hesitant to go through and run an install myself, as i am admittedly a bit technologically illiterate. Is there anything i should know before thinking of installing Sequoia? My specifications are as follows: Processor: 2.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5 Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB submitted by /u/Negative-Coast-8320 [link] [comments] [► Source]
Error Occurred While Installing Update
Image
Hi all, I'm using 2.4.0 OCLP and I created 2 new installers from scratch, one Monterey, and one Ventura. I'm trying to get it onto two Macbook Pro Mid 2012 machines, both with 16gB and 1TB SSD's. I've done this many times before, without any issues, but all of a sudden, when trying to install onto these two specific macs, it always times out. I forgot what the exact error says, but it times out with "17-18 mins" left in the installer and says it failed to install the "update." I've even tried different hard drives, switching them out, to see if maybe it was a hard drive issue. This doesn't seem to be the case. I'm making sure that I'm building and installing the correct opencore, (MBP 9,2) each time. I'm erasing the drives before installing. Nothing seems to be bypassing this error. This is getting a little frustrating, as it typically would take maybe 30-45 mins to do this and now I'm waiting hours and hours only to get this...

Which MacOS is more convenient in my case?
Image
Hello! I have a MacBook Pro 13” Mid 2012 (MacBook 9.2) It has 16Gb of RAM and a 2.5GHz Core i5 Processor. I have installed a 500gb SSD and it already has OpenCore, currently with MacOS Sequoia, however I feel that the computer is too slow and all the time without carrying out any process the fan is running, is this operating system convenient or should I put a less demanding MacOS, what do you think? Thank you very much for reading this post. Greetings! submitted by /u/Dannyger_ [link] [comments] [► Source]

Early 2013 15" or Early 2015 13" MBP? (upgrading from 2014 MBA)
Image
Is MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) with 16 GB RAM better than MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) with 8 GB RAM despite the former's processor not having AVX2 support? I am upgrading from a 2014 MBA (8 GB RAM/128 GB SSD) by the way. Need something that's better than my 2014 MBA for a smoother Sequoia OCLP experience without breaking the bank. Another reason why I am asking this is because I am currently dealing with a seller that has two of these MBPs in their inventory, so I am not sure which one to take home. Help me decide please.. thank you 🙏 submitted by /u/Exciting-Repair-4250 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Used OCLP to Upgrade to Sequoia, now I’m stuck in Recovery, no WIFI to blame?
Image
Im stuck in recovery mode after using OCLP with a 32gb usb. Every time I try to upgrade, the install fails and I’m back in Recovery. I’ve tried resetting pram, etc. , but it seems the issue is I can’t connect to any WiFi network in Recovery. It says “Your Mac successfully joined the Wi-Fi network, but cannot reach the internet.” It also says the MAC address may be to blame? Typing in my WiFi’s name and password doesn’t work and no networks show up. Would I be able to get WiFi in Recovery mode via an Ethernet cable adapter? Are there any other solutions? submitted by /u/Quirky-Letter-5244 [link] [comments] [► Source]

Necesito algo de ayuda
Image
Hola, necesito ayuda para actualizar una Mac mini m2 2012 Contexto: la recibí como regaló y me dijeron que se podía actualizar forzosamente pero que la persona que me la dió no lo sabía hacer. Por mi no había problema siempre supe hacerme maña para arreglar estás cosas, entonces encontré open core y estudie el proceso y al momento de intentar la PC me dice que está versión del programa no es compatible con esta versión de OS X (actualmente OS X 10.8.5) y que necesito llegar a una versión más actualizada ( OS X 10.10.5). A lo cual descargo dicha versión, trato de actualizar ye dice que primero necesitaria hacer una actualización a Intermedia (OS X 10.10) y para hacer la instalación limpia tampoco es algo que esté logrando. Al momento voy a intentar con una versión más antigua de Open core para ver si me ayuda, porque parece un círculo vicioso de intentos de actualizacion. Si alguien ssupiese los pasos a seguír en este casó, lo agradecería mucho. submitted by /u/AdPsycholog...

Pram reset with oclp
Image
Hi, I have an early 2014 13” mba and have just installed macOS sequoia 15.5 successfully. But one problem I had with my Mac beforehand was sometimes when trying to wake it from sleep it just had a black screen, and even if I hold down the power button nothing happens. But sometimes when connecting it to the charger boots it up or closing the lid and coming back a little later. But the thing is I have tried resetting smc, but it didn’t seem to work, so was about to do a pram reset but I am worried it might brick the oclp installation.

Since it is officially unsupported, am looking at OCLP as a solution. I have two questions: 1. Will I face any issues with such upgrade?
