You might do a search for 6460b in the ProBook forums. From what I remember, I think it is very similar to the other ProBooks (for example, the DSDT patches can be used unmodified). Sticky guide in ProBook forums + ProBook Installer v6.1 + minor changes after (different lan, different AppleHDA... just going from memory).

Thanks RehabMan for your advice, highly appreciated

I was able to install the TrackPad, Keyboard, PowerManagment, by using the ProBook Installer v6.1 but still searching for the Bluetooth, wireless, high screen resolution setup, Mic and sound

What is the native resolution of your display?
What WiFi chip is in your laptop? Same question for BT....

Look for patched AppleHDA (the ones in the ProBook Installer is just for 4x40/4x30s) for your laptop.

Hello RehabMan,

Probably 1366x768. If that is the native resolution of your display, the only way to get higher than that would be to replace the screen or connect an external monitor. Just like a MacBookPro 13" (non-retina).

What WiFi chip is in your laptop? Same question for BT....
- WiFi chip is Intel Advanced-N 6205
- Dont know about the Bluetooth

Intel WiFi will not work. You should look into replacing it. If there is no whitelist implemented in your laptop, pick an OS X compatible WiFi of your choosing. If there is a whitelist implemented, refer to the service manual for your laptop to see what WiFi cards are accepted. If one of those is OS X compatible seek it out (make sure it is HP-branded). Last ditch solution is to use USB dongle.

Look for patched AppleHDA (the ones in the ProBook Installer is just for 4x40/4x30s) for your laptop.

You might have to patch your own AppleHDA. Search for guides... there are many out there. It is not easy, but if you have some technical ability, it can probably be done.
