Virtualizimg Windows 11.

I have a late 2015 iMac27 5K and I'm willing to give OCLP a try. But I'm hesitant because I absolutely need to be able to virtualize Windows 11 and I'm not sure if that's even a possibility.

Any info would be most welcome.

Sonoma on iMac late 2013 stopped working?

I’ve been running Sonoma via OCLP for about a month now and up until yesterday it ran smoothly. When I turned my computer on yesterday I noticed my wall paper had disappeared and the bottom bar icons were bigger. When I try and open chrome it immediately sends me back to log in.

Can anyone provide some insight?

iMac 2011 oclp screen glitch

iMac 2011 oclp screen glitch

Hello guys, hope you can help me on this one. I have this 27” A1312 iMac from 2011 which i lost count of how many times I took it apart.

This time is running oclp with Monterey and a K3100 gpu card.

Im getting this glitch from time to time but the guy who sold me the card tested it before shipping.

Anyone of you has gone through this and been able to solve it?

Thanks!

Help OCLP T420

I installed sequoia on my T420 i5 2520m evm ssd 8gb ddr3 ram , the boot time is horrendous and the overall experience is very bad, did I do something wrong or is this expected ?

I used this EFI https://github.com/tonyyang123/Lenovo-T420-OC?tab=readme-ov-file

And change the ACPI folder with the files generated for my system.

Any debugging tips or help, I'll be grateful.

Red Chrome and not working on MacPro6.1 / Sonoma 14.7.4

Apologies if this has already been discussed at length, but i'm new here.

So just upgraded my 2013 Mac Pro from Monterey to Sonoma through OCL 2.2 and everything works fine, all apart from Chrome which has a red browser and virtually locks up the desktop. After some restarts and running the extra plug ins needed through OCL then Chrome seemed to work fine yesterday, however today we're back with the red browser again.

Apart from the obvious 'just use another browser' Are there any terminal scripts or work arounds yet?

Followed all the instructions and everything works great.

Every so often, one or twice a week I have to 'Post-install root patch' to get it working correctly.

Any signposting really appreciated.

Which OS for MBP Retina 11,4 / 2.2GHz Quad i7 Iris Pro / 16GB RAM / 2TB SSD

My MBP is stuck on Big Sur because it has a 3rd party AFTERMARKET Samsung SSD. When I try to upgrade to Monterey via Apple Software Update it won't let me.
Just curious if anyone has this setup and what OS they'd recommend. I'm hoping not to root patch or do anything super technical. Please let me know your experiences and suggestions. <3

My old MacBook Pro running just fine!

iMac 2011 21 inch 12,1 CPU+GPU+RAM+2X SSD Upgrade

iMac 2011 21 inch 12,1 CPU+GPU+RAM+2X SSD Upgrade

Specs:

CPU: Intel i7-2600s GPU: AMD WX4150 4GB RAM: 32GB-1333 MHz SSD: 1TB-256GB OS: Sequoia 15.3.1

Question is, has anyone upgraded the Airport card? Looking to do BT 4.0.

https://osxwifi.com/product/imac-2009-imac-2010-and-imac-2011-apple-broadcom-bcm94360cd-802-11-a-b-g-n-ac-with-bluetooth-4-0/

Would this be a plug and play? Wondering if there are any guides out there to get this part working ahead of time while I wait for it to get delivered.

So far the machine has been smooth compared to 4750M and Intel i3. Day and night difference with all the upgrades. All Metal applications work. Haven't tried gaming but hopefully in the future I would be able to.

Anyone can do this with time and patience. It's my first time doing this so it took me about a month, on and off and waiting for parts in between. Hardest part is understanding flashing the vBIOS, my tip would be to get a live USB Ubuntu and flash vBIOS that way.

Highest version of macOS that will run comfortably on this?

Highest version of macOS that will run comfortably on this?

Title is pretty self-explanatory. I would love minimal lag. Also, I do believe it currently has the stock HDD, but I’ve heard an SSD is noticeably better for OCLP? Let me know if it’s worth upgrading.

iMac i7 2013

Really struggling to get this beyond Catalina :-(

I’ve done quite a few OC installs on other devices with no problems…

This one refuses to boot to the Ventura or Sequoia OC 2.2 USB Installer built and blessed.

Keeps coming up with the no entry side … If I pull the USB out live, it carries on to boot into Catalina on the HD fine…

Maybe I’m just tired … so obvious answers very welcome :-)

Macbook boot directly into login screen

So basically, after downgrading from sequoia to sonoma. My boot time is faster but now the login screen has a loading bar that show up after i put my password and the login screen doesnt seems to look like from MacOS sonoma where in sonoma you should have big clock but the clock never appear, only big profile picture of my account with password box. How do I fix this?

Which mac os on 2011 MBP (i7, 2,7 Ghz, 16GB Ram) for smoothest experience?

Hello World,

I am running macOs Ventura on my MBP. Pretty ok perforfmance. But i think i reached the limit with macOs Ventura.

Nevertheless i am asking myself, would it be worth upgrading the old lady to macOs 14 or even macOs 15?

Any benefits? Would my system run significantly slower with macOs sonoma or macOS Sequoia

thanks in advance

I'm trying to get Ventura on an iMac 7,1, and every time I open it, this error pops up. This maxes out at El Capitan, and it isn't supported by the Catalina and High Sierra patcher. I cannot use another Mac, as this is the only Mac I have. It doesn't give any other details.

Upgrade from Sonoma to Sequoia

I’m running the latest version of OCLP on a MacBook Pro 12,1 with Sonoma. If I now want to upgrade towards Sequoia, can I like for the minor updates just use the build in process or do I need to create an usb stick and undergo the full process?

Thanks for your help

Cant update to 2.2.0 patch and spoofing reverted. HELP!

Ive been at this for 3ish hours now and followed all the steps. Idk why but whenever I open the open core legacy patcher it says “installing additional components” im still stuck at 2.0.1 when it finished loading. After that the pop up to “update” to 2.2.0 when i already followed the steps. I wanted to update it to basically stop the popups everytime I boot my computer. Now with my 2015 macbook pro that isnt spoofed anymore AND im on the same patch. Sidenote once “updated” my laptop it reverted my spoof and cant use my iPad anymore with it. So i then ended up trying to spoof my laptop again to get universal control feature to work but every time I try to spoof it two EFI during the boot control shows up. One that when I try to boot it on wont let me because it needed apple support and the other lets me boot up but the laptop isnt spoofed. I really only use the one feature on OpenCore and thats to spoof to get universal control and that doesnt even work. Im in a rut and I hope yall can help me out here. Thanks again!

2015 15'' MacBook Pro Freezes After Long Idle or Lid-Closed Scenario

Machine Model
MacBookPro11,4 (Mid-2015 15")

macOS Version
macOS Sonoma 14.7.3 (23H417)

OpenCore Legacy Patcher Version
(2.2.0)

Issue Description
A week ago, I performed a fresh installation of macOS Sonoma 14.7.3 on my Mid-2015 15" MacBook Pro. Most things work fine, except for a hibernation issue (where the Mac wouldn't turn on after closing the lid for a prolonged period). However, I have already fixed that problem. Now the major issue I'm facing, which is severely affecting my work, is freezes. This sometimes happens after I close the lid for an extended period, but sometimes it occurs even when the lid hasn't been closed at all and mac is just at it's idle (i.e. I'm not using it for some times).

  1. When this happens, the trackpad, keyboard, and external mouse stop responding.
  2. The only way to fix it is to force shut down the Mac by holding the power button.

After Install I get this error

$ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3

Then I did nvram reset and smc reset. Surprisingly the lid wake sleep is solved without touching the standby or hibernatemode thing but I noticed something changed in pmset. But still got the freezes issue if it idle or lid closed for long time.

Now the major issue I'm facing, which is severely affecting my work, is freezes. This sometimes happens after I close the lid for an extended period, but sometimes it occurs even when the lid hasn't been closed at all and mac is just at it's idle (i.e. I'm not using it for some times).

  1. When this happens, the trackpad, keyboard, and external mouse stop responding.
  2. The only way to fix it is to force shut down the Mac by holding the power button.

After Install I get this error

I have disabled standby mode and hibernation using:
$ sudo pmset -a standby 0
$ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
Also I have reapplied Post‑Install Patches

Btw just today I did put this two value as default
$ sudo pmset -a standby 1
$ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3

Then I did nvram reset and smc reset. Surprisingly the lid wake sleep is solved without touching the standby or hibernatemode thing but I noticed something changed in pmset. But still got the freezes issue if it idle or lid closed for long time.

I got this value on pmset after this

[help] MacBook Pro 9.2, OCLP Catalina to Monterey OS

I keep having this issue I got opencore installed on flash drive / hard drive, it’ll go through act like it’s about to complete and either restart or freeze I’m currently on 10.15 Catalina and I’m trying to use OBS or Streamlabs so that I can stream my ps5 gameplay to the laptop using rtmp/dns server and then it goes to Twitch without need of a capture card, unfortunately nothing is really supported on Catalina anymore and I’m trying to upgrade to Monterey

Mid 2012, 13” 8gb ram , dual 3.5 ghz processor

It’ll go through the set up process and restart or freeze at about 1 minute remaining, I got the security off I’ve installed kali on flash drive but I was trying to set up dual boot for windows a while back to be able to use exe simply and it wouldn’t let me, honestly half the time it’s slow and junky I know I need new computer just trying to see if it’s worth hosting this free lightstream alternative server or if I’ll need a vps, is there a certain way I can pull the logs to get more details on what’s causing the issues I have it set up for all the extra debug and verbose logs there’s a lot of words going across screen in beginning but too many to capture in time. Thanks again

I don’t have a 32 GB flash drive, could I use an external HDD instead?

iMac 27'' 2011 (12,2) with Sonoma, error in active corners

I love active corners to activate exposé/mission control and it makes me very productive. But somehow when I set one corner to show desktop on my Mac, it doesn't work. All other options work (show app windows etc). Any idea why?

2015 MacBook Pro - random slowdown

2015 MacBook Pro - random slowdown

Hello! i upgraded my 2015 Macbook Pro to Sequoia last december and it’s been working perfectly fine until recently.

Last week, my Mac apparently died with only 54% battery and after I had plugged it in, it’s been extremely laggy. Trying to minimalise or maximise a finder window takes at least 15 seconds with it lagging HORRENDOUSLY. It’s become pretty much unusable.

I have it dualbooted with windows 10 via Bootcamp assistant and it works flawlessly on there, no lag whatsoever.

Initially, I thought it had been infected with a virus, but after doing a full system scan with Malwarebytes, it came back empty.

Does anyone know what might be the cause of this? it’s driving me absolutely insane 🫠

Installing Ruby 3.x and cocoa pods on 2015 MacBook Pro intel with Sequoia

Has anyone experienced any issue with installing these? I am trying to create and app in xtools and I need both of these in order to create it. I cannot seem to update beyond the default install of Ruby which cocoapods has a dependency with. Has anyone else experienced this? Any workarounds? Solutions? Any help is appreciated
