Hi,

i am running a Hackintosh with i7 3770k, Gigabyte z77 d3h mainboard and geforce gtx570.

i am running fine on 10.8.2 with latest suplement update.

all seems good, performance is massive but i have a problem with my icloud.

i can connect and system is doing sync, mails get synced, calendar too and contacts seems too. But when i open contact app,
i see the rainbow ball spinning and cpu usage from com.apple.icloudhelper is going to 100%

after 2 hours waiting, nothing happens.

same happens, when i do safari bookmark syncing (cpu 100% and safari hangs)

anyone else has this problem?

i tried to change smbios.plist serial (no result)
i deleted all caches and preferences for these apps (no result)

any ideas what to do more?

thanks so much

best erik
 
this is just a try and error. Try the following:
-use MultiBeast with just one single option selected, EASYBEAST.
-REBOOT/RESTART

SEE IF works.

If YES, congratulations. Then reconfig your MB as usual.
If No, I'm sorry.

Please, reply the results.

Good luck!
 
that didnt help.

i reinstalled ML and i got it working.

So for now appstore and icloud syncing is working, but i can't log in to imessage and facetime.

i tried:

PCIRoot=1 (result i cant get into desktop, monitor stays black)
i added HEX to Device Properties for my Network Card (result monitor stays black), but even without that, my network card get recognized well, all symptoms which i can find in tutorials i do not have. (IoBuiltin=True and EN0 is all good here)
Onboard Ethernet is working with Atheros Driver from Multibeast 5.0.2 (its that the problem?)

But strange is: I can not even login to iMessage, when i try to do it with iphone tethering (bluetooth and usb)

anything i missed? thankkkssss

my chameleon.Boot.plist:
<dict>
<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>darkwake=0</string>
<key>Legacy Logo</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>2</string>
<key>UseKernelCache</key>
<string>Yes</string>
</dict>
</plist>

My Specs:
Gigabyte Z77 D3h, I7-3770k, Palit GTX 570 1280 MB
 
My Contact app will not open, same as you. Any luck fixing this? Message also does not work fyi, I don't really care as I do not use it.

I have turned iCloud off and on. Checked and un-checked Contacts. I've searched the forums but not found much. Hope you came up with a resolution.

Thanks.
