Any idea why I am getting this error while trying to install my os using the latest oclp? I tried to install Sonoma and Ventura it gets past the initial part of the install reboots then gets to about 22mins remaining and throws this error. This is from a fresh install. Also when trying to...
I would like to ssh into my desktop and upgrade with the Sonoma installer in the /Applications folder. Ideally this would be unattended.
What is the command?
With new major OS releases, I normally do clean installs on devices I'm not replacing. I know how do clean installs of the OS. My question is there a way to do it without having to erase my iPad and restore iPadOS 16 first before upgrading/upgrade to iPadOS 17 then restore for clean install...
Hello all you Apple folks. I have what to me seems like a dumb question (dumb question as in something that I should know, but I don't).
Is there a way to configure some master AppleID? I'd rather not pay for MDM service. But, I also want to be able to have a stricter AppleID that only a few...
Hello Mac friends. My Mac which runs macOS Ventura, has two internal SSDs, the firs SSD is my main one (Apple's Blade) the other is a SATA SSD which is essentially just a blank SSD.
I tried Boot Camp Assistant but it seems it only installs windows on the main drive where the macOS is running...
Hello! I need help please. I am trying to install Monterey via Open Core Legacy on a Mac Pro 5.1 (high sierra) and the instalation never finishes. The computer keeps restarting after the progress bar finish and goes back to the disk selection (pictures attached) and go again to a progress bar...
Hello, I searched macOS Sierra's Terminal command to create a USB bootable installer but Apple's official Terminal command to create bootable macOS installer skips Sierra for some strange reason (after El Capitan, it skips to High Sierra- very strange, why'd Apple skip Sierra?) even though if...
Hey all,
I am stuck on getting a Ubuntu 22.04 to put the bootloader on the external drive and NOT the drive with the macOS boot loader.
I am able to successfully install linux to an external drive, and it runs. However, even though I tell the installer to put the boot loader on the external...
I have a 2011 iMac running 10.13.3 and I am changing to a 2012 Mac Pro 5,1. I have heard that I can't simply move the SSD to the Mac Pro, due to apps being tied to the machines UUID, and due to machine specific modules and kernel drivers. Is there any validity to this? If so then how would be...
I have 3 MacBook Pros that I updating and installing SSDs. Two are 2015 and one 2014. All 3 are using the same 3rd-party SSD.
Two are all running Catalina. One keeps coming up with Yosemite. It will NOT see the SSD during installation. So I created a USB installation drive with Catalina on...
Hi,
is there a way to install a previous release of Big Sur, e.g. 11.2?
Just for info, I would like to do it because of the display brightness issue in older MacBooks (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/can-no-longer-adjust-brightness-after-update.2315102/). It looks like the issue was...
Hi
As far as I know generally when you try to download an app from Mac App Store eventually it will create a folder in /var/folders/XX/[alphanumerics]/C/com.apple.appstoreagent/com.apple.appstore/[UUID] and then 4 files will be downloaded, .pkg .pfpkg receipt & flyingicon. I know it's so...
I upgraded an external APFS boot volume from Mojave to Big Sur. There were two accounts and a lot of apps. On the first boot, they were all gone and replaced as if I had told the computer to pre-erase the volume, but of course, I did no such thing. Is it supposed to happen this way? What could...
I've been running Monterey betas since the beginning and haven't ran into install issues until beta 7. When I checked for updates I got the full installer this time (11.5GB!). After launching and starting the install process the progress gets stuck every time with around 52 minutes remaining and...
Curious to know how others approach this. Me, I always wait for the first incremental update to save myself the trouble I've occasionally had in the past.
Feel free to post and motivate your choice, and to prevent the thread from sinking.
Thanks & happy updating, whenever (if) you do!
Hi,
Today I did a fresh install of macOS 12 on my 2017 iMac 27" 5k i5 3.5Ghz Intel
Before I installed from Recovery I erase the disk and renamed it, disk utility successfully erased it.
After completing, the mac booted into macOS briefly and was terribly slow, so I decided to reboot the mac...

Hey guys! The last time I posted you guys were incredibly helpful, and I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Current specs:
And the hard drive setup:
I bought this computer as-is from my old place of work. The drives are all probably non-OEM, and I'm...
Hi dear mac users,
I recently acquired a Macbook 4,1 from early 2008. Unfortunately the latest version of macos supported is Lion. I managed to upgrade it to Mountain Lion and Mavericks (but that last one lost the graphic acceleration). The impossibility to use modern apps on those system made...
Hi everyone! I’m new here and I’m reaching for help since I couldn’t find anything on the web nor in this forum.
I have an eMac (the one from early 2003) and it hard drive died. Instead of replacing it with another hard drive, I thought it would be better if I replaced it with an SSD. I bought...
I bumped an old thread related to this issue earlier today, but figured it prudent to make another to bring more attention to this problem while everyone is still within their holiday return periods.
As you may or may not be aware, there's currently an issue that appears to affect all M1 Macs...
