    Apple Previews macOS 12 Monterey - Available Fall 2021

    Intel, regarding macOS support, can quote Mark Twain from the New York Journal, "I can understand perfectly how the report of my illness got about, I have even heard on good authority that I was dead." ;)

    New Apple Silicon Macs: MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac Mini

    The question for Hackintosh is where will the pro desktop land, which i/o and chips, and what support for current Mac pro users; will Apple build bridges or jump to a completely new pro vision?

    macOS 10.15.6 Supplemental Update

    Well, that was fun. Unlike any update recently, I couldn't use Software Update in System Preferences or the stand-alone Supplemental Update or Combo installers to update from 10.15.6. It seemed to install, but without the expected "Install macOS on yourdisk - Data" option in Clover menu (5119)...

    Catalina 10.15.6 Update Problems > Need Help

    You should try updating through System Preferences or with the combo update first as suggested above, but I suggest you do the following before trying again: 1) Clone your main drive using Carbon Copy Cloner, which you can try for a month for free. Boot into the clone to make sure you’re safe...

    macOS 10.15.6 Update

    Not a good idea to put your serial number up there.

    Apple Previews macOS 11.0 Big Sur - Available Fall 2020

    Unit sales of Macs increased roughly 300% from 2006 to 2010 and about 50% from 2010 to 2019. Apple has to redefine and redesign its Macs to fill out its user base. I have lobbied against non-upgradeable prosumer or small business Macs, and we have that only at the very high-end.

    Apple Previews macOS 11.0 Big Sur - Available Fall 2020

    I'd say some people underestimate Apple. Steve Jobs had said it, there are times when you have to move from not just your past, but shared past. You have to have the vision to see where tremendous talent can take you. Chip development is a rising tide for all levels of use. Apple silicon propels...

    macOS 10.15.4 Update

    Open the config.plist in Clover Configurator>Boot and check your listing for the Default Boot Volume. Using your name for the volume could be an issue; "LastBootedVolume" is probably the way to go. I doubt it's a problem with r5107. Run OnyX>Maintenance and use the latest Hackintool (now...

    macOS 10.15 Catalina is Now Available on the Mac App Store

    Folks, for safety do not download any version of Clover except for tonymacx86 Clover builds or the original source file referenced in Feartech's link. As of now the current version is Clover_v2.5k_r5071. An update through Clover Configurator should be safe also.

    [HELP] Sabertooth z87 + i7 4770k + Mojave 10.14.4 Post-Installation Issues

    Sometimes the only way to fix something is to reinstall the OS. You can do this: (1) Make complete backups, on clones; Carbon Copy Cloner is very good and likely has a free month of use; additionally make several copies of the Clover-based EFI folder by opening up the EFI in Clover...

    [HELP] Sabertooth z87 + i7 4770k + Mojave 10.14.4 Post-Installation Issues

    Sorry I’ve been out, mmagna. The port limit patch is a fix, meant to be temporary, to move past Apple’s limit on the number of ports, with USB2, one count, and USB3 as two,etc. I believe the limit is 15 ports. Many people find that USB3 won’t work without a patch or a permanent fix. Search the...

    [HELP] Sabertooth z87 + i7 4770k + Mojave 10.14.4 Post-Installation Issues

    Definitely come back and share. For what it's worth, these are new screen shots of the Clover EFI folders for kexts and drivers. I updated to Clover r 5033 and the drivers are put into two folders within the drivers folder itself. I just made sure that both folders had all my drivers since...

    macOS 10.14.6 Supplemental Update

    I had installed the Supplemental Update with Clover r4920. After remaking the EFI Clover folder with Lilu 1.3.7 and WEG 1.3.0, updates to other kexts and drivers, Clover r5033, and serious changes to my config.plist, all was fine except for stability, as had been since 10.14.6. After updating to...

    macOS 10.14.6 Supplemental Update

    Updates in System Preferences>Software Update will only show up on an APFS formatted disk. If the system disk is HFS+, Update will only say, “Your Mac is up to date.”

    macOS 10.14.6 Supplemental Update

    Preboot options are for FileVault installations. After the initial restart you should restart on the “Install macOS on <your disk name>” several times until that option disappears. Then you can boot into your usual partition. Do not choose any option that says “Install OS X on <disk name>”. That...

    macOS 10.14.6 Supplemental Update

    It's strange that you'd have an issue after installing 10.14.6 already. After you finish with your USB installer you can move your established EFI folder to the EFI partition of your USB installer. Then try booting through the USB drive, choosing it from system boot loader, and choose your disk...

    macOS 10.14.6 Supplemental Update

    Sorry to hear that happened. For anyone, I've learned the hard way: always, always clone your drive before installing an Apple update. Cloned to my main backup SSD using CCC. Installed this on the clone drive first to test, and then my main drive. So, a nearly one-gig, full macOS install...

    [HELP] Sabertooth z87 + i7 4770k + Mojave 10.14.4 Post-Installation Issues

    Here you go, mmagna I believe putting the drivers into the "drivers64" isn't necessary, but doesn't hurt. I get latest drivers by installing a recent version of Clover to a USB flash drive, then opening up its EFI folder and pulling out the drivers I want. The very latest version of Clover has...

    [HELP] Sabertooth z87 + i7 4770k + Mojave 10.14.4 Post-Installation Issues

    Hey, mMagna I'm sure you're fine. If you want to try a version of what I show in the pictures, you could use your install flash drive to boot from. Save the entire EFI file that shows up in CC for the disk you boot from--just drag it to your desktop--then you can open the flash drive EFI--put...
