    MP 1,1-5,1 MacPro 3,1 OCLP Monterey. 24" LED Cinema remains black after NVRAM reset.

    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...

    MP 1,1-5,1 Upgrade path from High Sierra / 5770 to Monterey / 5600XT

    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...

    Can't create MacOS installer with OCLP on SD card

    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.

    Menu bar size of MacBooks with notch on other Macs

    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

    MP 1,1-5,1 cMP 5,1 Ventura + OCLP Can't Perform Graphical Login

    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...

    iM 4,1-14,4 iMac 10,1 in boot loop after OCLP

    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...

    Latest Open Core Legacy Patcher update

    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...

    OCLP update botched root patches on mbp11,1

    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...

    MP 1,1-5,1 Successful cMP5.1 OCLP Monterey Install

    I have a 2009 cMP 4.1 --> 5.1 computer. I followed the information here and started with Macschrauber's Rom Dump. Then did the EnableGOP ROM mod to get the Native Bootpicker on my RX 460 graphics card. Finally, used the latest OCLP to make a Monterey USB and install it onto a new sata SSD. I...

    How to make OCLP installer for a Mac different from one running OCLP

    I am trying to prepare an OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) installation USB drive for an iMac I don’t currently have access to. I know, it’s an iMac16,2. Would this be the right procedure: Open OpenCore Legacy Patcher app (1.2.1 as of this posting). Click the Settings button and select iMac16,2...

    Open Core Legacy Patcher boot screen & ghost drives

    I have 2 ghost drives that only show up in the Open Core option-boot screen, and I want to repair whatever is causing them. If I select them to boot, one loops back to the same screen almost immediately, and the other loops back as soon as you let go of the option key. The two with weird names...

    Clamshell Mode Nonoperative Monterey OCLP 2010 6,2

    I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I was running dosdude's Mojave on it before OCLP & clamshell mode worked fine. But now, with OpenCore Legacy Patcher, it doesn't work any longer. When I close the laptop (15 inch Macbook Pro 2010 6,2) it stays active. Is there a setting I'm...

    Teamviewer Blank Screen

    I have a mid 2010 27 iMac with High Sierra. Due to the hard drive size etc, want to use the machine to keep backups of various things. Delighted to find the OCLP project and subsequently loaded Ventura 13.6 which runs really well. This is my first time with the Mac environment, previously...

    OpenCore Legacy Patcher 1.1.0 now okay on 2017 MacBook Pro?

    OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) 1.0.0 made macOS Sonoma available to many Macs that could run Ventura but had been dropped from the list of supported machines able to run Sonoma. One big exception were several 2017 Mac models with a T1 chip. I just discovered that OCLP 1.1.0 has been out for...

    MBP 1,1-10,2 MBP 2010 - OCLP/Monterey - Keynote Problem

    Hello. I have a 2010 Macbook Pro with OCLP 1.1/Monterey. It works great for what I need it for, but I would like to be able to present in Keynote. I know it is a very old machine. The problem is that Keynote works correctly but crashes immediately as soon as I press the play button. Any ideas?

    Other ActionRetro does the noble work of promoting the power of OCLP by running Sonoma on an A1260/MBP4,1

    [This post was supposed to go up several days ago.] I’m sure a few of you have already seen the latest by Action Retro: a side-by-side of OCLP running Sonoma on an A1260 (running half of its maximum RAM, and unclear if it was running a spinner or SSD), next to an M1 Max MacBook Pro with 64GB...

    Resolved 2012 rMBP 15" crashing on Sonoma using OpenCore Legacy Patcher 1.0.1

    I am not sure if there is a better place to post this (The OCLP Github page does not allow to submit any feedback), so I will try here. Using the latest available version of OCLP 1.0.1 and updated my 2012 rMBP 15" to Sonoma which worked great. But now it ends up crashing at least once a day...
