    Notes on the latest Monterey release 12.2

    Reading the various successful update to the latest Monterey release, I wonder why some are still using old OpenCore versions i.e 0.7.4, 0.7.5 and 0.7.6. I am not talking about the nightly versions which at the moment is 0.7.8 (which I am using), I mean why not the release OC version 0.7.7. I...

    Big Sur RC released

    As the title says but download is very slow at the moment due to traffic I suppose although D/L size is only 2.90GB for the upgrade from the last Beta release.

    Big Sur Query

    Without opening a can of worms or unintentionally infringing TM site Rules, can I ask Admin/Mods why the RC Big Sur release Version 11.2 (20D62) is not reported or supported as my understanding is, it is also a Public Release or am I mistaken?

    Commentary on 'It worked perfectly with Catalina'

    Another common cry I have noticed - 'It worked perfectly with Catalina' - this is Big Sur a completely reworked Apple OS just like when Apple stated using APFS we had to put our thinking caps on and stopped looking backward. Keep in mind BS now has a sealed volume unlike Catalina. Bleating about...

    Big Sur Early Adapter > Don’t Rush in...

    Guys - I've been tinkering with the Hackintosh scene since S/L and I see the same pattern every time Apple release a new OS X or a new supposedly fast and more efficient Boot-loader is introduced. Some of us jumps straight into the update or installation without doing any kind of research to see...

    Spoofed Old Specs to 2020 iMac Model

    Although I successfully updated to the second Public Released BS Beta, I decided to see if I could spoof my old specs to one of the new 2020 Mac models. Here is the result on a test disk still running the first Public Released Beta, if anyone is interested how, I will post the process which was...

    Customising Boot Entries in macOS H Sierra

    This for me proved to be far more difficult than in Sierra because if installing High Sierra using file system APFS, you will have three partitions on Clover Boot Menu, FileVault Prebooter, macOS High Sierra and Recovery and if like me you want to change the partition labels or hide the ones you...

    New Update to macOS H Sierra available

    Down loaded from App Store - beta 7/8??!!! (I am losing my self the way Apple is releasing the different versions). All went well apart from audio which I had to install again, Everything works apart from graphic acceleration with this card waiting for driver release from Nvidia.

    High memory usage in High Sierra

    The high memory usage I reported before seems to have been solved with a reinstall. I reinstalled using the HFS+ file system oppose to the new APFS file system, don't know if that has any difference to the previous installation where the high memory usage was happening. Another factor why I...

    macOS High Sierra

    Is there a public beta release? if not, are we allowed to discuss aspects of it? The reason I am asking I don't want to fall foul of the forum rules, because at the moment I am running it on my test rig, all is working apart from graphics and sound, which I consider a work in progress.

    [Solved] Back to black screen in iTunes movies

    Something that I had working for months now has reverted back to unable to play my legally bought iTunes movies. Went through the whole process as before that got it working including the Shiki.kext update but still no go. The funny thing is I can play the movie trailers in iTunes but not my...

    On a Z87X chip set Gigabyte Board - Clover Configuration

    A series of screen shots of how I configured Clover Installed Yosemite - Hope it gives some idea how to setup Clover Configurator, by far its not perfect but Sleep works, Audio works (after sleep as well), iMsg/F-Time, Continuity, Start up and Shut down all work - very stable with no KPs what so...

    Clover Install running near enough perfect

    I have spent a greater part of the day faffing around with clover on a spare drive trying to get clover to display my ATI card as HD 5770 instead of 5xxx in 'About this mac'. The crazy thing is, its perfect in MultiBeast but even when I boot with a clover usb test drive it screws it up - boot up...

    GA-Z87X-OC FORCE (Successfull Clover Install)

    This was a hard and long journey made more so by my inability to understand or misreading the GUIDES. I think I was spoilt by the simplicity of the Multibeast install which made the task of a Clover install almost impossible, I nearly gave up at times. First off I installed Yosemite the...

    USB 3.0 Universal in MultiBeast (Yosemite)

    Here is something I found in MultiBeast - Choosing the 'USB 3.0 Universal kext' rendered some of my usb ports dead, both 2.0 and 3.0 front and back of the case. I re-ran MultiBeast without that Kext and all my ports are working, Maybe this is something Tony and the crew can look into also hope...
