I've been a Hackintosher for the past year. I bought a genuine 2009-11 iMac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Card to get full functionality out of OS X. It worked marvelously. I am now building a Hackintosh for my grandfather, and bought the same Wifi Card. Plugged it in, and OS X does not recognize it at...

I just bought and set up my brand new iMac. I used Time Machine from my old Hackintosh to back up all my files. I restored that on my iMac, and everything worked fine. I just restarted my Mac, and now...it just won't get past the loading screen. Safe mode won't even start. I am not sure what to...

Hello, guys! Because I have no space for new monitor. I think that if I can use thunderbolt to connect hackintosh, I can save money to buy new monitor and use two computer. Does it work? My iMac is late 2013 model, and I have a hackintosh with ASUS thunderbolt card on X99 A motherboard.[ Any...

Recently, apple released the late 2015 iMacs. The processor options for the iMac are -i5 6500 -i5 6600 -i7 6700k Is there any chance that skylake is now supported by Mac OS X? Edit: Question refers to desktop processors. I know mobile processors won't work

I've got an iMac mid 2009. GPU has burnt [unreadable screen at boot] (Radeon 4850) So I changed the GPU by the one found in the iMac 2010 (Radeon HD 5750), identical in form factor. It seemed fixed since the display is now perfect and I ran El Capitan installater without any issue. The problem...

Just finished installing El Capitan on my new build and have a 27" iMac i5, late 2009, that I wanna try and use as monitor connecting it to my NVIDIA GT 740 card. After some digging around here and the far corners of the web I thought this DVI to MDP converter would do...

I currently have a 2011 27" iMac with16GB ram, mainly tasked with photo editing in Lightroom 6.Since mid-August (about when I upgraded to Yosemite), I've had intermittent display issues.While often having no problems when booting up, it will occasionally flicker in use and sometimes will remain...

Hi all, I really like the design of the iMac G5 - 2006. Well, because they are kind of "slow" for today's standards, I have thought of buying a non-working iMac G5, gutting it out, and then putting modern components in it. So I was thinking of the 17" and the 20" (white polycarbonate). I...

Hi all, It looks like I'll be getting an iMac, and I want to transfer everything from my Hack to the new iMac. Obviously I'm talking about my applications (paid ones) and files. My current Hack has a separate SSD for the OS/Apps, and a HDD for all of my files. What's the best and fastest way...

Hi, I'm not happy with my 6 year-old computer anymore so I came up with an idea. I like the original iMac case. You don't have any cables hanging around, it's clean and so on. And it's quite expensive. So I wondered if it's possible to buy a 27" iMac from 2012 with some defect - i mean the...

DO NOT HACKINTOSH YOUR REAL MACINTOSH or alternatively Do not do ..... I see two post buy guys that screwed there macs up with multi-beast using all options and both stated they should have known better. How??? I searched on google for hours trying to find something on the matter and the fact is...

Hello, I am trying to decide between building a budget Hackintosh with a Pentium G3258 or Core i3-4330. I am looking to potentially dual-boot or run a virtual machine with Linux. My plan is to return to some programming in the future. I don't play much games, except for retro 2D. I'm usually...

I have built a few hackintoshes before but never got too deep. Just stuck with the main builds. I was curious, about the difference between ATX and mATX? Could I build an ATX mobo build in a mATX case? Would it fit a big graphics card? Could I use an mATX or ITX mobo build or would there be a...

Hi there, I recently bought an Imac 2013-2014 and the wife wants it red. I have a compressor and spray attachment but I was just wondering if the little black logo at the front will pop out if I get inside? If I can pop the logo out and cover the glass I should be able to pretty much spray...

Hey guys, I read the guide to install Yosemite about 5 times, but after about the 5th reinstall attempt of my flash drive, I accidentally selected my iMac' s Macintosh HD drive as the installation media... I recall something from the old Mavericks guide about that being a pretty bad thing...

So I'm able to log into iMessage and everything after calling the customer support and giving my 12 digit code, but now I'm getting a new error. When I was on Mavericks I could send messages to anyone using a registered iMessage account (duh), but now when I try to message the same people on...

Hello I currently have a Late 2006 iMac running OS X 1.7.5 Lion with a ton of stuff on it and I'd like an exact clone of everything to be on my new Hackintosh. I am still looking into even going the Hackintosh route and being able to have everything exactly how it is on my iMac transferred onto...

Hi everyone. In 2011 I wanted to build a hackintosh. But there were some troubles around hardware compatibility, so I chose to buy iMac 21,5 2011. Now I see that hackintosh community is growing up, there are a lot of hackintosh owners and for me it's time to upgrade. Today I am doing a lot of...
