Hi guys, I'm new here.. I'm trying to use OCLP to upgrade my iMac, but can't get it to work.. its an iMac 27-inch Late 2013 (Intel i5 3.4Ghz Quad-Core, 16GB RAM DDR3, NVIDIA GTX 775M 2GB, Samsung SSD 860 EVO 500GB. I tired it with all OS versions, from Ventura all the way to the latest Sonoma...
Greetings and salutations
I'm having issues with universal clipboard between my cMP3,1, 11" MBA and iPhone X. I've tried all sorts of solutions mentioned online short of wiping and reinstalling the devices.
Here's a picture describing the problem. Universal clipboard used to work when the cMP...
My son is away at college. He decided to run an update on his MacBookPro11,2 from Sonoma 14.3 to 14.4.1 without first updating OCLP 1.4.2 to 1.4.3. Now he cannot boot.
I made him a thumb drive with Sonoma 14.4.1 on it to boot from and re-install Sonoma on the internal drive. This did not solve...
Hi
I have upgraded my MacBook Pro mid 2015 with using OCLP to Sonoma 14.4.
This has worked fine (as I thought)
But
1.) NTFS for Mac (Paragon) suddenly is not activated and crashes
2.) App Store says: not connected (but shows the start page also Outlook, Chrome etc, all works fine)
The update...
Hi everyone,
I apologize if I am not on the right sub. This is my first post on MacRumors.
Looking for specific answers without success.
Is there still few issues updating MacBook Pro 15" 2017 14.3 touch bar with open core legacy patcher 1.4.3?
Everything works as expected?
Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone
I am trying to figure out why my cMP3,1 won't sleep. I've successfully installed Monterey using OCLP and everything works great apart from sleep.
When I select –Sleep video is cut, the screens go to power save and the HDDs are spun down. The white power button light starts to...
Hello
I'm trying to build a Mojave installer with OCLP (1.4.3) and keep getting the below error, which aborts the process. I've tried Mojave installers downloaded from two different places and I have tried with two different flash drives, both of which are fully functioning. I've also tried...
Hi guys,
My iMac was running Open Core Legacy Patcher (Ventura), but the GPU broke, so I removed the HD and put it in an external case. The issue is that I can't access the HD on my MacBook Air or on a Windows notebook. Does anyone know how I can recover my data from this OCLP HD?
Thanks
In my MP 5,1 has 3 boot drives with: Ventura, Monterey, Linux/Ubuntu. I chose this setup so if I somehow "ruined" one of the disk I would still have a bootable system. Also it should allow me to upgrade the Monterey to Sonoma and if that turns out to be a disaster I should be able to fall back...
CMPro 5,1 OCLP 1.3.0 or other versions no longer automatically boot and system sits with a black screen after post.
Option boot shows EFI OCLP is the default and you can boot that way.
Reset NVRAM, set Mojave or Catalina partitions as default works fine.
Disabled SIP under Mojave, reinstalled...
Hi everybody,
I used OpenCoreLegacy Patcher to install Monterey on my Mac Pro. Il was difficult because the installation kept crashing but I finally succeeded after having read dozens of pages of forums.
The graphic card was ATI Radeon HD 5770. I changed the card after the installation and put...
Hi everybody.
I have a cMP 3.1 and MBP 10.1. An ancient guy and an old guy, but i still love them both)
For years I've used FCS on cMP and/or FCPX on MBP and was happy. At these days software development has gone far ahead. I know I can use OCLP/ Dosdude for modern OSX installation (in fact...
Hello,
for many years my early 2008 MacPro worked very nicely under El Capitan. After being unable to synchronize my iOS devices I decided to test OCLP and made a direct jump from El Capitan to Monterey. That worked nicely but I wanted to fix the WIfi and bluetooth issue and changed the stock...
Hi all - I'd like to start upgrading my 5,1 a little bit and am in need of some guidance as to how to go about it.
Ideally my 5,1 would end up with a 5600 XT graphics card running Monterey. It is now running High Sierra and a ATI 5770. I'm shooting for a 5600 XT because I want to eventually...
Is there any particular reason that I can't use an SD card to install Ventura with OCLP on a 2017 5K iMac?
Why not just use a USB stick? I don't have one handy and there's an ice storm outside. In any case, this seems like an artificial restriction.
I know it's strange but I love the large menu bar on MacBooks with a notch but I want to put it on my iMac. I don't know if it's possible with an app that allows you to change the size as if it had a notch or with OCLP's Mac spoofing
I have a cMP 4,1 flashed to a 5,1. With an RX580. I was running Ventura and installed the SW update for macOS 13.6.3. OCLP prompted me to update its installation, so I did that and installed it on my boot drive's EFI partition. However, I didn't update root patches. I thought I should do that...
Hi, I installed Opencore Legacy Patcher on my 2009 iMac and used the restore from Time Machine option in the installation, but now it reboots halfway through the loading screen.
I select EFI boot and then the drive with Sonoma on it so I expect that's the right procedure.
The weird thing is...
Hi, just updated OCLP on my iMac and was running Ventura fine. It won't log in after upgrading and reapplying root patches saying it needs to optimize. It just sits on the log in screen with an odd spinning circle underneath.
So two thoughts
- be careful upgrading the latest OCLP
- any ideas...
Everything was working fine with OCLP 0.68 on my MacBookPro11,1 running Ventura. Then, I took the plunge to update to OCLP 1.2.1. The computer runs through the first few boot stages fine, but the progress bar hangs about 1/4 through. Following the procedure in...
