    Bad USB Mapping or Hard drive issue?

    My work provided me with this drive enclosure OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual Mini for editing video, but filled it with Samsung QVO drives instead of EVO drives. Lately I've been having an issue where the drive will unmount in the middle of an edit. I even lost a few video files because of it. I...

    << Solved >> Sidecar Not Working - Black Screen - OpenCore iMac17,1

    @jaymonkey Thanks so much! Changing the BIOS and updating the Device Properties did the trick. I also changed my SMBIOS to iMac19,1. Not sure if that helped but everything is working great now.

    << Solved >> Sidecar Not Working - Black Screen - OpenCore iMac17,1

    I recently purchased an iPad Pro and decided to make the jump to Catalina so I could take advantage of Sidecar. Been using Clover for years, but I heard some good things about OpenCore, so I decided to do a fresh instal on another SSD. Install was easy; everything seems to be working great...

    [Solved] Restart during boot 10.13.5

    Solved this issue, but it was a pain to fix. I used single user mode to delete the IONetworkingFamily.kext. This fixed the booting issue but screwed up my ethernet and wifi. Using another computer I downloaded the latest update, 10.13.6 and updated this computer via external hard drive. Now my...

    [Solved] Restart during boot 10.13.5

    Looks like it's not liking the com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily or the com.insanelymac.intelMausiEthernet.

    [Solved] Restart during boot 10.13.5

    I came into work today and started up my computer. It gets to the apple screen like normal, the line starts to move, then it restarts. I’ve checked verbose and can see a kernel panic happening but can’t figure out the cause. I’ve trashed the nvidia web drivers using terminal in recovery mode...

    CPU Overheating after reaching desktop during startup

    Nothing as far as processes. The CPU load seems to be barely 1% while idle. When you say power management do you mean within Mac OS or within the BIOS?

    CPU Overheating after reaching desktop during startup

    I use the the Corsair H60. My temperatures are about 27C idle, the highest it gets while working is about 60C. I haven't had an issue since updating the OS, but I did just notice that my CPU is always running at 4.7GHz. Shouldn't it lower if the computer is idle? Is there a way to change that...

    CPU Overheating after reaching desktop during startup

    Just booted up this morning and the CPU overheated and restarted just as I reached the desktop. I held down the power button on my case and let it completely shut off, then restarted it. This time it booted without overheating. This seems to work every time. It only seems to overheat after being...

    CPU Overheating after reaching desktop during startup

    I'm running 10.13.2 with a i7-6700k overclocked to 4.7GHz. In December I started having issues where the CPU would overheat and shutdown seconds after reaching the desktop after startup. I read through these forums and found some people suggesting that this had to do with the "Month 13 is Out of...

    [SOLVED] Can't boot into Mac OS after updating to 10.13.1

    I figured it out! Well, someone else seems to have figured it out and I piggybacked off of them. The solution I used to get back into my drive can be found on post #2 of this thread...

    [SOLVED] Can't boot into Mac OS after updating to 10.13.1

    By the way. I've been working with a fresh install on a new SSD. That's up and running like normal now. Should I just use migration assistant and copy over everything from my original SSD?
