macOS 15 Sequoia on Unsupported Macs Thread

I did a full reinstall of Sequoia and OCLP 2.0.1 and fingers crossed internet works with firewall turned off, have not tried turning it on. It might be that I original installed the final beta then updated through System updates instead of downloading the full installer via OCLP. Not sure at this point but the reinstall seemed to fix it.
Yep that was exactly what i mentioned & works for me also 👍 fingers crossed 🤞 for 15.0.1 - good to hear that lancemcv1!
Looks like I made a big mistake: have OCLP 1.5 installed and accidentially upgraded to Sonoma. No I am stuck with an extremely slow Mac and WiFi not working. Applying post-install patches does not work - host not supported. How do I get best out of that situation? I guess I need to revert back to Sonoma. Thx for any help / guidance.
hi pete, I made a usb Sequoia installer and it works great for updating Sonoma or starting from scratch.
I used OCLP 2.0.1
I recognized that my "Where Is Widgets" on my Mac desktop do no longer get updated. Anybody else facing this issue?
I installed Sequoia on my cMP 5,1 as per the specs below
It boots fine but then it repeatedly gives me this error. every 2 to 5 seconds for over a minute.
if I keep hitting 'ignore,' it stops. It will repeat if I add a downloaded video to my TV.app library or use the Handbrake app to convert a video.
I'm sure other things are going to trigger this error, too. I can persist with trying to get it stable for another week, and if not, I'll go back to Monterey.
Any suggestions, or should I wait for a later version of OCLP to move up to Sequoia?
Sorry, yes, Sequioa of course and there WiFi doesn't work and I can't patch it. This is why I need to find a way to go back to Sonoma which previously was installed and worked fine with OCLP 1.5.
If you cannot establish an internet connection via ethernet I would install the latest OCLP 2.0.1 via USB. Same with the metallib package (and KDKs if you have an AMD graphic card). Hopefully patching should consequently solve all your problems and lets you stay on Sequoia.
So you say that upgrading OCLP to 2.0.1 would allow me to install the patches without rolling back to Sonoma? That would be fantastic.
So far Sequoia runs great on my 2015 MacBook Air. However the Maps App starts beach balling endlessly as soon as I try to type in a word
Reboot in safe mode and let the installation finish.
I'm surprised that you could install Sequoia with just OCLP 1.5.0 at all. If your Sequoia works fine and the missing wifi is your only issue, I'm almost sure that the update to OCLP 2.0.1 and manual installation of metallib package will solve your issues after patching.
Works fine is not exactly it. Yes, WiFi doesn't work, however, the whole system is incredibly slow. Actually, I would say not usable anymore. Hope the 2.0.1 upgrade will fix it. If not can I just install an older version using OCLP if needed?
My Y2014 MBA has got a 'glowing' Apple logo on the top face. I think it's a new thing that the logo doesn't ever stop emitting light? I think it's got something to do with either screen brightness [the level on my device cannot be adjusted] or sleep/hibernation? Do you folks know of a way for me to get my device's logo to stop 'glowing'?
This thread is rapidly turning into the chaos that is Discord... 
In what way, exactly? The odd questions now and again don't exactly cause 'discord' or constitute chaos.This thread is rapidly turning into the chaos that is Discord...
I’ve made a fresh install of El Capitan, which is che last officially supported, but the problem still remains..
Hi, I need your help please:
Mac mini i5, late 2012 (6.1).
Did run the last years under Fedora. Last macOS installed was "Sierra".
I need to install High Sierra, to make the firmware compatible with apfs.
How can I make a bootable usb stick with High Sierra, when I only have a Sequoia machine?

I was referring to the dortania Discord server which some people here like to use but I find very hard to navigate and generally chaotic. So I don't use it.
Recent postings make me wonder how many of the new posters here have read the OCLP documentation on Dortania's site. Likewise, how many have read back through and/or searched the topics on this macRumors forum.
Also, please tell us what model of Mac you're referring to when asking a question. It only takes 5 minutes to put it in your signature. That's just common courtesy. Personally I don't have time to go back to look at someone's previous posts where they might have mentioned it.
No, I was asking what you considered chaos. No matter. You have made your point. I too know what goes on Discord, and I was making a play on words. As for the Mac model I am using, I am ashamed to say I tried to put it into my signature, and I failed (yes, several times). So, most of my posts I always mention the Mac I have - MBP11,4. I think, now that you mention it, I will try again to edit my signature.
EDIT. I just tried to do so... and failed. Perhaps, you can tell me how to go about it. Seriously.
EDIT. I found where to edit my signature, and I updated it, but it - still - doesn't show. Strange.
