    Whatevergreen 1.6.9 oddness in Sequoia?

    I updated my system to OC103 with whatever kexts were new, but I got black screens after returning from screensaver activity or monitor idle. It happened three times on the night I updated. Could still interact with system (no issues there) and all the icons et cetera were present but just the...

    Screen saver doesn't start

    I've upgraded today from Sonoma 14.7.1 to Sequoia 15.1 - while I had to update kexts to get my Bluetooth back up, I noticed my screen saver doesn't start. At all. I can preview them, it's set to start after one minute idle but no dice. Anyone else run into this issue? I now just turn off my...

    Photoshop 25.9.1: no generative fill no neural filters

    I have the latest version through my company CC, no weird restrictions I can tell, fully unblocked in my firewall... yet no generative fill or neural filters. I see a lot of complaints over the years with these option getting/being greyed out but I wonder if it's something Hackintoshy perhaps? I...

    Bluetooth b0rked after NVRAM reset

    Long story short: I was deepcleaning my Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro (a board I've been typing on since 1999!) but some water must've remained in a key and (momentarily) made the board freakout. Sadly this happened on the OpenCore selection menu, where it cleaned NVRAM. No harm no foul I...

    Has anyone been offered 14.2.1 yet?

    I have the revpatch=sbvmm boot argument set. Wonder if it's been pulled or they're rolling it out staggered Never mind, it wasn't in my config.plist anymore somehow (probably got overwritten when I was busy trying to get my Broadcom wifi going again.)

    Weird error with 13.6

    I don't want to update to Sonoma right away, so I opted for the 13.6 update for Ventura. I get this error. I've always been able to install 13.x updates. Anyone have a clue what is happening here? Server overload? 0.95 OC, all kexts are up to date. I have gigabit ethernet at home but the Apple...

    Security Response patch 13.3.1(a) issues?

    Hey friends, I read on Heise Germany that Apple's new quick fix Security Response 13.3.1(a) is preventing patched genuine Macs (so using OpenCore Legacy Patcher) to boot. There's a workaround but I can't find anything on these forums or over on Reddit on the latest patch. Has anyone applied that...

    Anyone seeing weirdness with Creative Cloud?

    My installed programs work, but CC won't open with this error. Do I need to hit it with amdfriend? I'm lost, it worked fine before.

    Update Monterey 12.5.1

    PSA: there are some pretty bad holes in macOS (and mobile OS variants) that have been fixed with new patches. "Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited", according to the release notes. So it's imperative you get these installed as soon as possible. In case...

    Apple Music on Monterey

    Is anyone subscribed to Apple Music on Monterey? I was trialing the service to replace Spotify. Worked on my Android phone, but the Apple Music app never synced anything and trying to access the account from the app (icon top right) it vomits up app.js[2031:72] Error which a lot of real Mac...

    Monterey 12.1 update - any need to knows?

    I never update immediately as this is a work machine, but I wondered if it's just a straightforward affair or is there anything to be aware of (say set SecureBootModel to something other than Default or disabling fTPM before hitting upgrade?

    Monterey no longer seeing my tv

    First off it's not a big problem but I do find it odd that Monterey nog longer sees my LG C9 (with officially licensed AirPlay turned on/configured correctly) when it did in Catalina before I upgraded. I've been googling and there seem to have been issues in the beta too. Just curious: anyone...

    **SOLVED** Monterey upgrade, odd ProperTree behaviour

    I made the jump from Catalina to Monterey, straight from System Update. I lost my Bluetooth so I wanted to do the suggested fix, for which I need ProperTree. That however turned out to be all black and unusable under Monterey. I googled, then updated my Python install and rebuilt the app using...

    Small snag updating to 0.7.2 (solved)

    I've updated my test boot stick to 0.7.2 but I run into a weird issue. Updated all files, kexts et cetera. Checked the config.plist with ocvalidate as I always do. The usb installer loads but I don't see my macOS boot disk. I see EFI, a second (Time Machine) drive that isn't bootable, my Windows...

    BIOS upgrades, yay or nay?

    I live by the old adage if it ain't broke, but I wonder how my fellow hackintosh-builders go about BIOS updates. I'm still on the version the board was on when I got it, but that's about 20 updates ago I noticed. The system is stable and there's nothing I need to update my system over (release...

    Some questions on audio stuttering / pcie generation / nvme speeds

    Hey friends, Today I cloned my rather constrained original nvme to a new terabyte one. That took only about 20 minutes but it did remind me that I'm running my system 'on the handbrake' so to say - with it set to pcie generation 3 in the bios. Read/write speeds are fine but when I set it to...

    Windows 10 update weirdness

    I think most of us have a dual boot setup between macOS and Windows 10. I have one for gaming. It means I am very irregularly in Windows but now it started to complain I really ought to install the 20H2 update. Fine, let's get on with it. It then threw up these curious error messages...

    Unexpected halt error after 0.6.8

    Help! I upgraded my stick to 0.6.8, booted succesfully so copied the EFI over to my internal boot drive. It booted without a problem, but I noticed (as is often the case) the system reported the old version. So I went and did the final step to reset NVRAM. Now I'm presented with this error...

    Curious thing with OpenCore 0.6.4 on my test bootstick

    As always, I update my Catalina test stick first and create the config.plist from scratch. I have an odd thing: when I boot it, it works fine and lands at the OpenCore boot picker (0.6.4). However, there is no longer a 'Install macOS' option. Just Windows, Recovery and normal boot to my existing...
