    Ventura doesn't recognize my IOGEAR GBU512 Bluetooth Dongle

    This inexpensive little gem worked quite well under Catalina and Big Sur, but last night's update to Ventura killed it. Any thoughts from the community? Has anyone tested this adapter under Ventura?

    Direct update from Big Sur to Ventura

    Buttery smooth. OC Auxiliary Tools, don't leave Catalina without them.

    Time Machine Restoration Stuck

    This thread refers to an older hack that ran just fine until I used Onyx. Though Onyx has been a reliable tool in the past, this time for some reason it left my machine unable to complete the boot sequence for macOS 10.13.6. The EFI bootloader appears intact and it allowed me to boot into...

    <<Solved>> Big Sur 11.5 problem - File modification dates are displayed as ten years into the future

    Since upgrading to version 11.5 all the files on my Western Digital MyCloud NAS are displayed with modification dates exactly ten years into the future from their actual "last modified" dates. This appears to be a bug in the Big Sur Finder only. The actual metadata is probably uncorrupted...

    << Solved >> No USB audio devices after OpenCore Big Sur installation (USB Port Mapping)

    I've got Bir Sur working at 95%, but neither my StarTech (C-Media - CM6206) USB sound card or my Blue Snowball USB mic are detected. I've got HMDI sound play through my display. I can deal with that if there's no alternative, but I'd like to get my mic working, at least. Some background: I used...

    Renesas USB 3.0 PCIe Card Detected by Catalina But Working Very Slowly

    I found this device on Newegg. What prompted me to buy it was a customer comment. He said the card worked well in his old Mac Pro running El Capitan. At only 15.99 USD it seemed too good a deal to pass up. I installed the card and ran the USB 3.0 NEC installer created by chris1111, available...

    << Solved >> Ethernet Is Switching On and Off Like A Crazy Monkey

    I was trying to solve a problem with Bluetooth. My IOGear dongle worked well under Catalina but very poorly under Win10. I tried changing to another brand, but that triggered something bizarre pertaining to Bluetooth PAN. Wired Ethernet began to oscillate between CONNECTED and NOT CONNECTED...

    << Solved >> Clover No longer Displays the Recovery Option.

    I was compelled to use Time Machine to restore my Catalina installation to a previous configuration. (Switching BT devices corrupted TCP/IP.) Afterward, clover displayed only three boot options, macOS, the Win10 working partition, and the Win10 system partition. Previously there were five -- the...

    WiFi Bluetooth Airdrop card from Amazon

    WiFi Bluetooth Airdrop I don't know who makes this device but the description is very interesting -- natively supported by Catalina, so they say. Has anyone had experience with this product?

    A CPU Temperature monitor for Catalina?

    My older hack (GA-B75M-D3V, i7-3770, GTX-1050ti, 10.13.6) runs SensorX without issue. I didn't modify the config.plist, kexts, patches, or anything -- it just works and is generally accurate. However, Sensor X is useless on my new 10.15.7 build (see my profile). I'd like to keep an eye on the...

    << Solved >> SOLVED! First Boot with Unibeast USB Hangs

    This is my first attempt to install Catalina on a new build. The initial boot required to format the target drive (1TB SSD) seemed to go smoothly until near the end where it hangs completely. I've given it 7+ hours (overnight) to complete and launch the installer but without success. Here is the...

    Nvidia Web Driver for Safari 13.1.1, Security Update 2020-003 10.13.6

    This update appeared today in my App Store application. Since the Nvidia Driver Manager has not found an updated version of the Web Driver (I'm running version 387.10.10.10.40.135) and these security updates inevitably invalidate whatever Web Driver I'm using, I am reluctant to allow the update...

    Error Code -43 when deleting files or directories

    Lately, this message appears when I empty the trash: The operation can’t be completed because one or more required items can’t be found. (Error code -43) All else seems cool and efficient. Running 10.13.6 and dual-booting Win10 on a separate drive.

    Considerable performance deficit after High Sierra installation - mitigated

    For various reasons, mainly a policy of "if it ain't broke...", I have resisted updating the OS on my hack. Until last Sunday my machine used ElCap quite happily. Then there was a security update for Safari which basically broke my graphics. I was using a GT 740 Kepler card, but after the Safari...

    [Solved] Can boot from Unibeast but not from HDD

    My working configuration: OS: El-Capitan MB: Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3V Video: MSI GT-640 CPU: i7-3770K RAM: 16 GB The system was working quite nicely until last week when the boot disc (a Seagate 1TB hybrid) suddenly failed. I purchased a new drive (1TB WD Black) and a new EVGA GTX 1050i, and...

    macOS Sierra - Correct LAN adapter for GA-B75M-D3V

    My fully working Yosemite hackintosh died due to a HDD failure (hint: never by a Seagate hybrid drive!). I'm trying to get it working again with Sierra. Here is my hardware configuration: MB: Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3V, BIOS version F13 CPU: i7 3770 RAM: 16GB Boot HDD: 1TB WD Black Video: EVGA...

    Booting from Unibeast Produces Kernel Panic

    I'm testing two Unibeast (Clover) bootsticks I've made, one EFI the other legacy mode. I want to make certain that the bootlegger works flawlessly before I commit to El Capitan. The EFI mode bootstick works fine, it allows me to boot my hack and run Yosemite from the pre-existing installation...

    No Luck with Clover, Kernel Panics

    I'm testing Clover using a Unibeast 6.6.1 USB bootstick on my Yosemite 10.10.5 hackintosh which boots flawlessly using Chimera. (Note: this is a dual-boot setup with Windows 8.1 installed on a separate drive.) My OS X boot disk is a Seagate 1TB hybrid drive. On my first attempt I chose the EFI...

    DSDT, If it ain't broke...

    I've been hacking for a few years now. My first hack was built on an HP Pavilion (LGA775 3.1GHz Core 2 Duo) that someone just gave me. I had little use for it, so I tried out various Linux distros on it just out of curiosity. Naturally I came around to testing whether I could get ML running on...
