Here's a post describing my "adventure" trying to restore macOS Ventura with all its user accounts from a previous TimeMachine backup.
A few weeks ago I tried to install Sonoma on my MacPro 2008 (3.1), which did not go well. While Sonoma did run and most applications worked fine, wifi and...
Hi All,
Since the update to Sequoia I've been noticing that I'm experiencing an issue which was fixed in Sonoma.
I use an M1 Air 16gb alongside a bluetooth keyboard and mouse (Keychron q5 pro and MX Master 3S)
This all works fine and as expected when only these two devices are in use...
I’m using iTunes (installed via retroactive) and am running Monterey on my iMac. It works very well and I don’t want to loose iTunes as the Music App is not good enough for managing a large collection IMO.
My iMac has had some issues and I’m considering wiping the drive and reinstalling the OS...
I just reinstalled macOS Ventura via OCLP due to a graphics card change. Everything went well until I restored my Time Machine backup from the same machine via an external hard drive. I got the message that the Time Machine restoration was completed and that the computer was going to restart...
So, I am having to reinstall macOS Ventura via OCLP as I had not realized that would be necessary when changing the GPU. My question is, I have macOS on a separate SSD and two hard disk drives in a RAID 1 configuration, AKA mirrored. Will macOS recognize the two RAID HDD for what they are after...
This time, I am booted into a cloned external drive attached via USB (USB 2 is, of course, much slower than the internal SATA interface, but it’s running in the background). I also turned on verbose booting and and OpenCore Debugging in the OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) settings. If it stalls...
Hi guys, I'm working with an iMac 27" with Ventura MacOS installed since a month ago, but today when I tried to connect to a shared folder on a Linux file server with SMB or CIFS, the computer went black screen and a few seconds after it got the panic screen. I restarted the computer tried again...
Hi everyone. Just bought a MacBook Air 5,1 for my travels. I have updated it to the latest available 15.xx and run all firmware updates. I try to install Ventura using OCLP. As soon as I press the Option key and select the installer, I get a forbidden symbol 🚫. I have tried two different usb...
mac mini 2018 running 13.4.1 using a magic keyboard 2 with number pad and a magic trackpad 2.
I recently installed an app called Barrier to be able to use my mac keyboard and trackpad to control my PC. Since then I have been using spotlight to pull it up quickly but the stupid Touch Bar option...
The first time(first step) the apple mark progress bar is displayed abnormally, the apple mark itself seems to be in the normal position, but the progress bar is displayed at a much lower position. In this state, the progress bar stops at around 4/5 and does not move forward from there.
Recovery...
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...
Just as the title says - I have been at this for about 10-12 hours now, and I am completely stumped.
The machine is running the latest version of Sonoma (which I'm learning has some serious issues with external drives) and no matter what, it cannot see any external volumes or devices as...
I'm using a 2012 MBP with Ventura and I am trying to add a file with flacs to Apple Music.
When I select the file and drag it to albums it doesn't add the file/album and again if I select album-file-import it still doesn't add.
I have tried various files with flacs inside.
Can anyone shed some...
I am getting the above message constantly, now. I started off by deleting ~/Library/com.apple.finder.plist and restarting the Finder. No difference. So, I decided to re-install MacOS Ventura. After the three-hour installation process, everything seemed to be working. Until it wasn't. I came back...
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...
One month ago my touchbar stuck completely. It had been flickering for a year. I was devastated completely. Moreover that day I took my macbook to another desk and closed it for a while(i'm using it as pc with an external monitor 99% of time). All was frozen except mouse. I wasn't able to type a...
Hello guys,
I installed opencore legacy patcher on my MBP 2017 13" Intel-based (function keys) a few weeks ago and used Sonoma that way. Everything went smooth, even though it was my first time doing something like that in the macos-roam.
I decided to remove opencore legacy patcher and get back...
Long time listener, first time caller.
I haven't seen a post like this so I thought I'd add a new thread. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue:
I had not been using Time Machine on this specific laptop prior to this issue, but I have used Time Machine on other Macs before...
