iCloud, App Store, FaceTime, Messages - Unable to Authenticate

[duveda]

This solution worked pretty well for me until I decided to upgrade my video card. I first had an ATI card and got an Nvidia card instead. I followed the instructions and got the nvidia card to work. It involved adding the string into the chameleon plist file.

The problem now is that since I installed the nvidia card, I can no longer log into the app store. Looks like you can only have one <key>device-properties</key> string within the chameleon plist file. For now it looks like I either have the option of having video work or the app store/iCloud. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to get around this?

So.. I had just about given up when I stumbled upon this kb article from Apple.

The solution was to change my network location to Automatic. When I did that, none of my interfaces showed up. I just added them and checked the NetworkInterfaces.plist and it showed that IOBuiltIn was set to true. At that point I knew it was fixed. I did not even need to reboot. Hopefully, a reboot does not mess things up again.

Absolutely

1. Open the org.chameleon.Boot.plist file located in /Extra directory with TextEdit....

Thanks so much! Your simple instructions got my iCloud working on my 10.9.4 Hackintosh! Cheers!

—Just adding to the knowledge base, I was having trouble signing in to iCloud or Facetime after restoring from a backup. I found a support thread on the apple site regarding resetting your keychain (turns out mine was damaged). Totally fixed my issues.

Hope this helps someone else. Cheers
