    There is no option to enable that. I should have explained before that I had already tried finding that. Also for some reason keychain continues to uncheck every time I login. I always need to select it again. There is also an issue where it keeps telling me "Update Apple ID settings, some...

    I have taken my system back to Catalina. I have noticed that it seems a little slower than big Sur but it isn’t a major issue for me. It will definitely be easier to restore my system if anything happens. Plus Airdrop is working great. I just had a question about Messages/iMessage iCloud...

    Can you use the OpenCore legacy patcher with our system or is that only for actual official older macOS? If we can use it, is there any benefit to using it after you have an up and running system ?

    I’ll change it up MacPro7,1 once I’m back at my computer. Thanks a ton for all your help on this. I truly appreciate it. I’ve learned so much on this journey. I’m still finding so many things but the thing I live about all of this is that I have a Custom built PC that I built which has Windows...

    Is anyone able to suggest a good SMBIOS model that I can use to be running most of the up to date apps. Airplay, Screen Mirroring and Sidecar? I recently changed it to iMacPro1,1 but I'm unsure on the model. I do have Sidecar running now, but some things are still a bit finicky. I understand...

    Ohhh Bluetooth HCI is not showing in my system report. I need to map the USB ports which I've never done before. I will look further into this Edit: It was listed, I missed it. I added the IntelBTPatcher.kext and IntelBluetoothInjector.kext and my Bluetooth is working great now. I just need to...

    I tried changing the OpenCore version to 0.6.2 and that didn’t help. I saw a post where it showed adding the 3 BRCRamPatch kexts helped, but they did not help my issue. I have the BlueToolFix.kext and the IntelBluetoothfirmware.kext but they are not helping either. Apart from this and the...

    Something odd is happening. When I start up my computer, it loads very fast to the login screen, barely any coding is seen, but there is no progress bar before the login screen. After entering my password, it then shows the wallpaper and then loads all code that is meant to, but I see that text...

    An article I was reading about Intel BT not working on Big Sur was stating that it only stopped working with OpenCore version OC 0.6.3. Apparently if I take the version back to 0.6.2 which I think is what I was using in the past it might work again. I would only need to change all the files in...

    The boot issue is solved. There is only 1 remaining issue which is the Bluetooth still isn't working. It is showing that it is on, but I cannot toggle it off and it only finds my AirPods which is a permanent device, so I suspect it is getting that info from my iCloud. It is Intel BT and it has...

    I have resolved the problem (I think). I thought I might test a couple things after reading a post about dual boot. I deleted the entire EFI folder from the mounted EFI partition, then shutdown the computer. I removed my Windows SSD and then booted back up using the USB drive. I then downloaded...

    I thought this might be an issue with the NVMe fix.kext so I removed it and updated the config. Upon rebooting the boot manager still does not see the UEFI BigSur M.2 SSD. This is mounted directly onto the Motherboard. I am still able to get into my system via booting from the USB drive, but...

    I went in and ran first aid from the disk utility and it booted my BigSur. I then rebooted again but my boot options can no longer see UEFI Samsung SSD anymore. So I plugged in my USB and booted from there and I was able to get back in. But it appears that I cannot get boot options to see the...

    I thought that I had the USB drive removed. I will remove the USB drive again and see if it still happens Edit: Yes I have the USB drive removed, so this is running straight off the SSD. I must have copied too much of the EFI file. Ohhhh I copied both folders under the EFI folder which is Boot...

    Everything worked great, so I rebooted once more and that was great, I then copied the completed EFI to the mounted EFI drive after completing that I then rebooted once more to make sure everything was ok, then I saw all of this. I don't know what happened. Do I need to install again?

    Problem with my 1st Hackintosh

    I felt it is important to update this thread for my future use and for others to read. The black screen issue that I kept on seeing was nothing more than a screen sleep function. As I was mostly use to Windows and only dabbled on iPad Pro etc, I always knew it was a simple tap of a button to...

    I have Big Sur up and running. My Ethernet connection is running great, but I am still encountering a BT and WIFI issue. Neither of them are scanning even though they say they are on. I suspect I may have an incorrect kext, so I am adding my EFI in a hope you could examine it. My Wifi is onboard...

    I copied a few programs to the install usb in case I needed them, such as Python 3, ProperTree, Open Core Configurator and MountEfi. I didn't realise Open Core Configurator was a EFI mount tool as well. The install didn't go to well. I kept running into internet issues and then my Boot failed...

    So now I'm tackeling the Monterey internet issues. Because of the difficulty of getting the downloader on windows and worrying about making a new usb, I set everything up on another SSD for Catalina. I then booted and downloaded using the gibMacOs for Monetery 12.4. Once it downloaded i just...

    I got my Catalina OS SSD back up and running. It was SmallTree that caused the issues. Once it was added back the installation was a breeze. I’ve also noticed I have stable internet through the Ethernet. I am only using the itlwm.kext with the others from your EFI that was posted on this thread...
