No issues for me. 10.15.7 (19H1030); Safari 14.1 (15611.1.21.161.5, 15611). Update via SU.

Threw caution to the wind and updated. Clover 5119 still. No (new) issues so far.

Thanks for the reply. I'll have to check how my USB ports are configured. My initial install was of El Capitan in 2016 or so, following one of the guides here, so it's been a while. It certainly appears to be USB related, as with just a keyboard/mouse connected sleep appeared to work - it...

Sleep used to work, but recently after entering sleep mode it wakes up within a few seconds. I'm on the latest Mojave. I don't think this was related to any hardware changes. I swapped in my Windows SSD and sleep worked fine there. Any suggestions for things to try? I'm going to disconnect...

I use a USB to Toslink adapter. Unfortunately last I checked the $10 one I got from Amazon was no longer available, so I can’t recommend a specific one.

I'm not disagreeing with your premise, but Rosetta was a technology licensed from another company, which affected its support period.

In a totally unrelated note, I have a question about my 8300 SFF. This morning when it woke from sleep it was extremely loud. Clearly a mechanical noise. It almost sounded like an unbalanced optical disk, but there was no disk in the drive. I restarted and the noise went away. This is the...

While I'm anticipating that I'll be moving to an Apple Mini eventually, there are a number of limitations on the newly announced machines that will somewhat protect sales of the existing Intel lineup: (1) 16 GB max RAM (2) 2 Displays total (3) No replacement for BootCamp/Windows...

Yeah, I've been reading the thread; just wanted to make sure I was understanding the guide correctly so I could follow it as close to exactly as possible my first time through. It's a lot to absorb at once.

A couple of questions based on reading through Dortania's OC guide and starting the prep work: (1) Am I correct in understanding that (according to the guide) Catalina and Big Sur require different SMBIOS for Ivy Bridge machines; iMac 13,x for Catalina or iMac 14,4 or 15,1 for Big Sur? (2) As...

What's your prediction for how long the GT710 will be supported? I'm currently on Mojave, so I know I've got at least a few years of upgrades waiting.

I'm pretty sure my personal use case has about the least risk - I use iCloud sync with my iPad, and the App Store for software updates. Essentially no DRMed audio or video, and no essential licensed software that couldn't be transferred. I'm also very much a casual Hackintosher, and I often am...

Are there any issues with using a SN that does not match the system definition you choose?

That's what the linked article claims. I don't have any first hand experience, I waited long enough that the supplemental update came out before I updated.

Reportedly the problems occurred if you installed Safari 14 before the security update: Safari 14.0 + Mojave 2020-005 Security Update Causing Major Problems! (Link from macintouch.com).
