    Issues booting OS X installer from USB Stick when moving to Clover

    Not an expert so take this as a grain of salt, but I just set my default drive to be the UEFI OSX SSD so that it defaults to Clover and boots into Yosemite... And then when I want to boot into Windows 8, I use the F12 key immediately during boot/restart to access all the possibly drives to boot...

    How to Fix iMessage

    Handoff is working for me. Built this Mac in December and generated new MLB and ROM values this week. I used my 12 char serial number and just added characters after it until it added up to 17. Made sure MLB was copied both in MLB value field in Rt Variables and also in Board Serial Number in...

    How to Fix iMessage

    How to Fix iMessage

    What bootloader are you using? As the guide says, they highly advise you don't use cloned IDs. I am on Clover, iMac14,2 SMBIOS, and Yosemite 10.10.1 with iMessage now working (even handoff even though I don't have bluetooth! I can send/receive SMS texts). I just built this computer in December...

    Have you tried setting your boot to verbose mode so you can see what's going on when it's hanging? Also, did you follow a certain procedure to set up your BIOS for your hackintosh? There's a few things you have to change from the motherboard defaults.

    How to Fix iMessage

    I'm using clover and followed this guide to get iMessage working on Yosemite 10.10.1. I'm not using any cloned IDs. I used Clover Configurator in combination with iMessage Debug to verify my changes upon reboot. I'll post in detail when I get home, but I used - Part-1, Step-5d like the Feb...

    Yosemite Finder Crashing (Clover)

    Thank you for the advice kduvernay. I went ahead and did a fresh install and made sure not to determine SMBIOS in Clover Configurator before installing and then I didn't have any Finder issues. Once I installed I went in and modified the SMBIOS to fit my hardware (even had to switch to an iMac...

    Yosemite Finder Crashing

    I forgot to post an update but I took some advice from another thread and ended up doing a fresh install. I think the issue I was having was that I pre-determined the SMBIOS (in Clover Configurator) before the install when I should have left it blank like the tutorials do, then after install you...

    Yosemite Finder Crashing (Clover)

    Is that as easy as just deleting those fields and rebooting with the new plist? Or do I need to do a reinstall? I was never able to open finder, so I have no way of running the Clover post-installation. I've just been making these changes via the configurator on another machine and then...

    Hello! First off, thank you all for your support. I've learned a lot and have made it far in building my first hackintosh and installing Yosemite (EFI) via Clover. The issue I'm encountering is that I can't get Finder to open without crashing. I can open most apps and even use the main Apple...
