Anybody having problems with (seemingly) random freezes? My Hack could go weeks of doing little to nothing, or in a recent case, two weeks of Handbrake encoding with no issues at all. It will then just randomly lock up entirely - screen won't wake, not accessible over the network, no SSH...
I wound up figuring this out. Took hours and hours of searching and rebooting (I never want to shut this machine down again, lol), but it turned out to be my own error. It would appear that even though I updated the proper Kexts on the EFI partition, freesby's config.plist was set to load the...
Okay guys. I'm back again pleading for help. I think at this point I have my EFI and Extensions folders totally messed up and need help rebuilding them/narrowing down what I need and don't need. I would greatly appreciate the help as this is my main media server machine. I can't afford to...
Thanks @freesby! The audio fix worked right away. As for the graphics, all I've done so far is change my system definition to iMac 18,1 as you suggested. Already there's an improvement, sort of. It seems now that the output is always active. It just goes to a black screen when the energy...
Thanks @BreBo for those links. The USB fix, although somewhat daunting and ton of information to sort through, worked perfectly. I now have only my in-use ports injected and the USB 3.0 devices are running at full speed. Thanks also to @RehabMan for putting all of that together!
The audio...
Hi again, everyone!
I successfully got my DeskMini up and running with Sierra 10.12.6. It runs like a dream - very fast! I have two issues though that I'm hoping to get some help with. I followed Colonel Panic's guide to get it up and running.
Issue #1:
My USB 3.0 ports are running at 2.0...
Good to know! Thank you, freesby! I'm gonna forego the Broadcom adapter for now then and see how it goes. Parts arrive tomorrow, so I know what I'll be doing all weekend!! :-D
Hey guys...
Quick question. I'm going to be building out one of these machines in the next week (parts are on the way). This thread has been super-helpful in getting ready and selecting hardware. So thank you for that.
My question is - is wi-fi and Bluetooth necessary in any way for macOS...
Just want to chime in and say thank you, this worked for me on my XPS 8700. The ports were all working, but would not detect any USB3.0 devices, only 2.0 ones. But after following these steps, all my drives came back! Speed tests will say whether it was 100% effective or not, but having the...
So it turns out I was just being stupid. When I brought my computer home (I was doing all my troubleshooting at work), it detected my Magic Trackpad right away and it seems to be working fine so far. However, I don't seem to be getting any Continuity features as of yet. The computer is...
Okay, so there's another issue I guess? Any ideas?
As for the kexts in both places, I just realized there are still some lurking in S/L/E. Those are probably from when I first set up my machine and wound up following different guides that were pre-Clover. Gonna clean those up today.
Thanks for your help so far, RehabMan. Here's what you asked for. Hope it helps!
kextcache:
kext file:///System/Library/Extensions/Soundflower.kext/ is in hash exception list, allowing to load
kext file:///System/Library/Extensions/RealtekRTL8111.kext/ is in hash exception list...
Okay, I tried to avoid doing this, but I'm at a loss. I've read as much of this thread as I can stomach, but my Bluetooth still doesn't work. I feel like I've tried everything to no avail.
Here's where I stand:
I have the AW-CE123H/BCM94352HMB installed in my system. Wi-Fi is working...
Hi everyone! I've been out of the game for a while, but this is my second real Hackintosh build. I successfully installed and got all my hardware working to my satisfaction. But then I was following the guide on how to fix iMessage and after changing my SMBIOS to iMac 14,2 with all the...
