USB 3.0 not working with El Capitan

[arnieswap]

Hi,

I updated my Hackintosh with Unibeast 6.1 and Multibeast 8 and now the entire back panel with USB 3.0 has stopped working. This is my Mobo GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-UD7 TH. What do I do to fix this? Thanks.

USB 3.0 not working with El Capitan Multibeast 8.0

Same problem here. I was hoping that MB8 will fix the USB 3.0 issues but still not working on my GA-H87m-D3h

Here's how to fix:

For 7/8/9 series, the easiest fix is to install FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_XHCIMux.kext which enables full support. Use KextBeast to install to /Library/Extensions.

Thanks installing those two .kext files fixed it for me. Thanks a tonne. Good news for me is that now sleep and wake works flawlessly which was a pain in Yosemite.

Thank´s a lot Tony. I was just installing these kexts (https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-fake-pci-id/downloads) with kextwizard (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/253395-kext-wizard-easy-to-use-kext-installer-and-more/) and USB 3.0 works perfect in full speed.

After installing the 2 kexts only, USB ports stopped working at all. No more mouse and keyboard. Z97X-UD5H. Everything was fine after UniBeast and MultiBeast 8.0, except USB 3.0 and sleep mode.

Thanks...while USB 3.0 port started working, now my Hackintosh won't go to proper sleep. The fans will kick in every 5 minutes. Prior to installing those two kext it was working fine. Any solution?

For your 8 series board this should work :


Download https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-fake-pci-id/downloads/RehabMan-FakePCIID-2015-1101.zip

In Finder navigate to Downloads and open the folder : RehabMan-FakePCIID-2015-1101
Open the folder : Release
Copy FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_XHCIMux.kext to your Desktop

Make sure that you do not have any other kexts on your Desktop.

Download KextBeast

Run KextBeast
Choose the option to install to /Library/Extensions.

When KextBeast has completed close it and open Terminal.

Paste this into the Terminal window :

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Press Return and then enter your password at the prompt (it will not show on screen) and press Return.

When it has finished you can Restart your computer.

When it restarts press the spacebar then select the option to : Boot Mac OS X without caches.

Check USB ports.
