    USB Problems after 14.4 Update?

    Wondering if anyone else is experiencing random USB problems after doing the Sonoma 14.4 update? I completely re-mapped my USB ports last fall when Sonoma 14.0 was released and @Edhawk was kind enough to verify my new map's integrity. No problems after that until I updated to 14.4 last week. Now...

    Sonoma PMSET command to Schedule Boot

    This is more of a generic question than Sonoma-specific: the Terminal command "pmset" has replaced the Mac's startup/shutdown scheduling dialog in the old Energy Saver control panel (that happened back in Ventura, I think). But regardless of the method used, is or has there ever been any way to...

    ProperTree laggy in Sonoma

    If anyone else is using ProperTree to edit OpenCore config.plist like I do: since updating to Sonoma have you experienced a noticeable lag in response while editing? Tilt-down sections initially respond but then stop for additional edits, and likewise, text edits in fields all seem to hesitate...

    AppleVTd breaking App Store apps?

    I have I225-V Ethernet ports on my mobo, and to get them working under Ventura 13.1 I had to enable Apple VTd (per instructions elsewhere on here by @CaseySJ and others). Ethernet's working fine now, but the (only) two apps I've purchased and downloaded from the Mac App Store are both crashing...

    Ventura 13.0.1 Update broke My Ethernet (again)

    This is just an FYI on my experience with Ventura under OpenCore 0.8.5-0.8.6: I have 2 onboard I225V Ethernet ports on my mobo. When I originally updated from Monterey to Ventura 13.0.0 I lost Ethernet connectivity and had to resort to using both the AppleIntelI210Ethernet.kext (rescued from...

    Ventura Strange Menu Bar Item

    Wondering if anyone else has noticed an unfamiliar Menu Bar item that appeared after I updated to Ventura (see attached screenshot). Seems to be USB-related but not sure what it's supposed to do, or why I have two sets of identical commands under it. I don't have any USB cards in my Hackintosh...

    Where are archived System Logs now?

    Under Monterey 12.5 I can no longer find the archived system logs that the Mac had usually compressed into a .gz format and stored next to the active log in the /private/var/log directory. Now I only see the current log there, which doesn't permit me to view entries that were created yesterday...

    12.3 All Apple Applications Disappear after Reboot

    Very strange development, has happened twice now. I installed a fresh version of Monterey 12.3 on a separate partition of an internal SATA drive, so I could test graphics etc without jeopardizing the 12.2.1 installation on my internal SSD. Am using OpenCore 0.7.9 and I added the config.plist...

    Thunderbolt External Drive not Mounting

    I have a WD My Passport 2626 (Thunderbolt 2) external drive. Am using an adapter to connect it to the TB4 port on my mobo. Recently, on a cold startup, the drive's been failing to mount on my desktop. Restarting my Hack immediately afterwards always works to mount the drive. This problem has...

    No Boot Chime on new Hackintosh

    I recently switched Hackintoshes from my old setup (Asus TUF Z270 Mark2, i7-7700) to a new one (ROG Maximus XIII Hero, i9-10900K). OC 0.7.3 / BigSur 11.6 on both. All is pretty good on my new Hack except I can't get the boot chime to work (it worked fine on my old Hack). The new rig uses Realtek...

    Move NVMe to new Hackintosh ?

    In 2017 my current (prebuilt) PC shipped with Win10 on a WD Blue M.2 SATA-III SSD (250 Gb) and, later, I added a Samsung 960 EVO NVMe (500 Gb) in its second M.2 slot. It's this Samsung EVO that contains my (working) EFI and BigSur 11.5.1. Am now configuring a new Hackintosh and for cost...

    Netflix not working in Safari with iMacPro1,1 SMBIOS

    Using iMacPro1,1 SMBIOS and after updating Lilu and WEG (without the shikigva=16 boot flag), Netflix on Safari still doesn't work for me. I do see images in the thumbnail pop-ups as I drag thru the Netflix progress bar, but the main window stays black.

    macOS 10.15 Catalina Successfully Installed - Keyboard Caps Lights Not Working

    Using Clover 5070 and upgraded Lilu and Whatevergreen kexts, I had no problem upgrading to Catalina 10.15 (using IGPU Intel HD Graphics 630). After installation, everything works fine (audio, USB, Bluetooth) *EXCEPT* my CyberpowerPC gaming keyboard's Caps Lock LED no longer lights up. Did a...

    Mojave Shut Down does not Turn Off Monitor

    Under High Sierra 10.13.6, I had set the Primary Display in UEFI to PEG and connected my NVIDIA GeForce 1080 card via DP cable to my 4K monitor. When I shut down my Hackintosh, the monitor would also turn off (blue LED turned to amber, and screen went completely dark). Under Mojave 10.14.4, I've...

    Dual Video for Mojave

    I've got an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 card connected via DP to my Predator XB271HK monitor. All is well under Mac OS 10.13.6, as well as under Windows 10 which is where I do gaming and where I'm mostly concerned about graphic speed and performance. I love the Mac OS for everything else but really...

    Pre-select Mac bootup while in Windows?

    I have Mac High Sierra 10.13.6 installed on an internal NVMe SSD, and Windows 10 installed on an internal M.2 Sata-III SSD. Am using Clover v. 4630. After using Clover Configurator to hide some sources (e.g., "Preboot") I discovered that I could use the Startup Disk system preference in High...

    Choosing Windows at Clover Boot changes UEFI Boot Order

    An old problem has reappeared which was solved by suggestions in these Forums, but I can't recall what the solution was and can't locate my old posts about it. I've been successfully using Clover 4586 for several months now; then I attempted to update to 4699, which didn't work for me at all, so...

    [Solved] Updated Clover to 4699 but now cannot boot into Mac

    Hi, in preparation for my eventual update from High Sierra to Mojave, I read your Direct Update tips and thought I could at least update Clover while waiting to do the Mojave update (am waiting for the updated NVIDIA web drivers). I'd successfully updated Clover before, most recently this past...

    [Solved] When to Install Mac OS SSD

    I've not yet done the Hackintosh installation on my PC. I bought a Samsung EVO 960 SSD to use for High Sierra and am wondering when I should install it: now, while the PC only has Windows 10 on it... or later, immediately before I start the High Sierra procedure? If I install it now, I'm...

    Beginner's Question

    This is probably asking something very obvious to all, except to me: Assuming I successfully install High Sierra on my Hackintosh (specs in my profile; am probably a few days away from ordering this build from CyberpowerPC), can I still boot into Windows 10 afterwards? In other words, can I have...
