    Black Screen Upgrade 10.11.4 GTX 730 not compatible

    Hi, I can confirm that my NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 4095 MB also stopped working as expect after the 10.11.4 update. Had the black screen but everything was up. I was able to ssh in. Rebooting with nv_disable=1 and then upgrading the NVIDIA Web drivers fixed it.

    Big List of Solutions for El Capitan Install Problems

    Hi, Got El Capitan install on my Dell XPS 8300 system. Still some tweaking to do however I thought I would mention that when I booted from system disk I got the dreaded boot0af error. This is a non uEFI system so uses a legacy Clover install. This means that the Clover suff resides in a...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    The carrier card does not show up on PCI bus. You need to see if you see an AirPort Extreme adaptor under WiFi and an Apple Bluetooth adapter in Bluetooth section. Check that the USB bus where the cable from the card is plugged in is still working after the update. Also, sometimes the PCI...

    OS X 10.10.3 Update

    The first couple times running the 10.10.3 update installer (I used the download and not the apps store), I had some strangeness. First time when the system rebooted the screen went black and only showed a mouse pointer. Power cycle restart, and tried again. This time it restarted and showed...

    Security Update 2015-003 1.0

    Update working fine on my Yosemite system, so far. Used the download and not the Apps Store. Boot loader Chimera on a RAID system and FileNVRAM kext is woking still and all seems good. I hope it stays that way :-)

    Yosemite Security Update 2015-002

    I had an issue with the App Store update method in that the system seemed to just hang showing the software update with the progress bar showing no progress. Left it for sometime and then I just power restart the machine. System came back okay, but no surprise, the update was not installed. I...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    It works with Clover because I think Clover has support for Apple wireless etc built in or as a module. I am only guessing here, as I don't use Clover. Chimera / Chameleon will work if you system BIOS works with Bluetooth keybaord ...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    Interesting that it is working in the boot loader and not BIOS. Can you set "ignore keyboard error" or similar in the BIOS? Then when you boot up, and when still in POST, using only your wireless Apple keyboard, hit any key or F2 to access setup. See if the keyboard is recognised then. It...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    Also check that the card is installed nicely in the PCIe slot. As was mentioned sometime earlier in this forum thread, the adapter card can be a very tight fit. Sometimes one has to loosen the screws holding the metal bit to ensure the card is level in the slot. Good luck with your trouble...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    My hack is a XPS 8300 i7. Not sure how different it forms yours. Card is in a x1 pcie slot and the usb lead is plugged into a usb2 header. Card LEDs are green when machine is on and when it is asleep. I see no red.

    Raid 1 question

    Hello, I just saw your message, I hope I can still help you or someone else with a similar query. With the help of "American in Spain" I got mine working. I have a Yosemite system running RAID 1 as the boot drive. It looks like you need to set up your system to boot. I presume you have...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    Here are mine. My machine is located upstairs and with at least one average room between. Network performance seems good with this card. Other machines only get a fair connection on 5 GHz at the same location. RSSI: -62 dBm Noise: -92 dBm A machine in the same room as the router, about 15...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    Indeed. Very odd. I can see that as far as the OS is concerned Handoff is not support now now on your system. You have a nice system and there is notihng that points to why you are having the problems. My hardware is not as high spec, just a Dell XPS 8300, and I am also using the same type of...

    Yosemite Handoff-capable Bluetooth adapters?

    Yes, it is working just fine for me after the update. My system setup is nothing special either. What is your setup? Did you change anything besides the update?
