Thank you so much for the support!
(Remember, the password in the terminal is YOUR Mac’s password and format your disk as macOS extended journaled NOT APFS )
Hello, I have a question: When I type Y in the terminal it says" APFS disks may not be used as a bootable install media".
Question: Does this method wipe the drive or can you still save your data?
To continue we need to erase the volume at /Volumes/Sonoma Installer.
If you wish to continue type (Y) then press return: y
APFS disks may not be used as bootable install media.
An error occurred erasing the disk.
bro, i hate u
How do I do that.@DyceStanley2
Spent an age trying to do this from a USB on a2017 imac but no matter what I did the system wouldn't see it when booting. Tried it this way from the SSD and nailed it first time. Thanks for a great tutorial it saved me hours of trial and error.
thanks so much been searching for this for around a year your video is the only one that worked thanks soo much
when i install ventura it shows an error occurred applying software update
IF any one is getting not valid mount do this
when you do partition make sure you put exact same name < Sonoma Installer > then it will work
and my terminal is saying that the command is not a valid mount point
you have to change the format of the installer of 16 gb to mac extended journal
Great tutorial that opens up a lot of possibilities. One question: did you disable the discrete GPU prior to this install so as to work with the Intel HD 4000 (I believe) only ? Thanks.
Initially you helped me get from Catalina to Sonoma 14.3.1 via OCLP 1.4.2 without USB. Greedy me wanted to upgrade to OCLP 1.4.3 to attempt an upgrade to Sonoma 14.4.1. Nonono I shouldn't have done that. Upgrading via 1.4.3 gave me the grey screen of death and it took me 1 whole week to figure out how to fix it. I went back to this my original method, your video so thanks a lot, you're a life safer! MacBook Pro Early 2013 Retina
How you did that , mine was similiar
No problem, always remember before updating macOS to check the Opencore Legacy patcher site to see for new versions.
When I click “Y” it do not do anything
U have to wait a few mins then it will start to copy
Thank you because I was able to install macos sonoma on my mac, I had it before but I watched the whole video but I installed it but it kept jerking and had to fix it and now thanks to this video I know that I'll have to install that, thank you
Im stuck in the password section

TYPE YOUR OWN MAC PASSWORD AND HIT ENTER

Great video for setup the old Mac to New Live
hello sir. i have a mac mini late 2012 on Monterey. I followed your steps and used 1.0.0 . I'm done with every step and now Im rebooting. In the picker I have Monterey and install Sonoma. BUT I CAN MOVE MY SELECTION to SONOMA. after 5 secs it will automatically boot on Monterey. In the settings in OPenCOre. I can set the Seconds to 0 for unlimited selection time but it will always go back to the default 5. I'm using a bluetooth mouse and keyboard but I've hardwired my keyboard already but still I can move the selection. Thank you.
if anyones mac is lagging don. worry just use it like normel for a bit open settings and your browser try opening youtube and just use it and after a bit it will become normel again
I don’t get the command part pls help
When pressing 'y' for the password, it says it is wrong. What is the pw?
The password is your computer password
/Volumes/Sonoma Installer is not a valid volume mount point.(help!!)
make sure the partition you make is named Sonoma Installer if it isn't then it'll say it's not a valid volume mount point and also make sure it's 16gb
So I got the Mac OS Sonoma which is a big thank you did the patch etc I’m all set but so if correct it deleted Ventura to save space correct and if all is good I shouldn’t have anymore issues?
So I got the Mac OS Sonoma which is a big thank you did the patch etc I’m all set but one question once finished can I delete the partition with the installer since it takes up storage or does it have to stay there and did it get rid of my old os during download?
@@animeotakuguy Yes you can, and most probably yes.
Am at the last step but the reboot to apply doesn't pop up
Very good tutorial*Thank you so much!!!
How do I do the terminal part I am confused
Thanks!
An important question is: how fast/responsive/memory intensive is this older MBP on Sonoma vs the same older MBP on for example Mojave?
Is it faster/more responsive/less memory intense/etc on Sonoma?
Hi, very amazing tutorial - I am seriously thinking about upgrading my MacBook Air 2017 to at least to Ventura - it is sad that having Monterey I cannot download Keynote :(
But I have limited internet data transfer - will 20 gb of internet be enough to do whole process ?
can I erase the partition after installed?
same question did you figure out what to do?
Bro disk lock 🔒 what I will do now
I also got disk locked
Legacy patcher root is not working. No wifi and no wallpaper
if you have open core already and wanna update the mac to newer just do the same steps
For me it didn't work, a screen appears asking to connect the mouse and keyboard.
Why Sonoma run very slow on my macbook pro 13" 2011 earlier? Is that normal?
Sonoma was built from the ground up with SSD’s in mind, as it says in the desc, so HDD’s do work but will run at an unoptimised speed
@@ZealousTech I already use SSD with 8GB + 2GB RAM but Sonoma still runs slow on my 2011 MBP
Thank you so much It works.
I hold Alt/option but it wouldn't open the window at 3:30 please help me
what to do if magic mouse and keyboard needed to be switched on?

Thank you for helping me bring my old but new to me MacBook Air (2015) first I followed your tutorial for Ventura and it was great. All without usb. Easy to follow instructions AND this is my first Mac. Then my iPhone 14pro couldn’t connect to my MacBook. So I’m updating to Sonoma.
I have a question: can we do regular OTA updates?
Or do we have to do our updates like in this video?
@@jaestreets751 I wouldn’t see why it wouldn’t work but you might need to re-apply the post patches after it.
can i ask, i followed your first video in big sur and now i am doing it to sonoma, can i delete the partition of big sur after i installed the sonoma?. We have the same macbook pro version btw
Command not found
please help
I have a 2017 iMac running Ventura. I've tried the USB update method and get the firmware lock when trying to access the USB. I'm diligent about passwords and never created a firmware PW for this Mac. I don't know this password. I suspect one was created by a third party who installed a SSD. I've contacted them to no avail. Anyway, will the method described in this video work for me or am I likely to have issues?
I can't install this though because my os version is 10.9.5 and I can't update it. What do I do?
so do we need a backup?
is there an updated command? this one doesn’t work and says it wasn’t found-
Excellent tutorial, any suggestions for my 2012 Mac Pro using Mojave with a Radeon ex 580. No matter how I try using usb just won’t work and using your excellent method will leave me with the issue of not being able to go into boot options … thanks
Use the original gpu (Radeon HD 5770 for Mac Pro 2012) with Mac BIOS Edition in it.
Coz custom gpu will make the boot option didn't show up
Can i do it on the normal disk or do you have to make a disk called sonoma then partition that
if it says volume not found in terminal then ur partition is not called sonoma installer
Works splendid on MBP 12,1, safari can't run Netflix, using Opera for it with no issues . Waiting for updates
For downgrading to ventura do I just do the same thing?
I think so
mine says commander not found on the terminal
when write the code on the terminal it says /Volumes/Sonoma Installer is not a valid volume mount point., any idea?
change Sonoma installer to the name of the drive or name ur drive exactly the way he named it
/Volumes/Sonoma Installer is not a valid volume mount point. How to fix?
Make sure the partition is named ‘Sonoma Installer’
Question. Why can I not simply do an "upgrade". Why do I need to create partition for the install? Also USB 3.0 hub costs like $3.
well, you are installing an operating system not meant to run on ur system :\. and thats how oclp works.
Help im stuck in the disk utility section
can you make a video on how to install window app on mac
How secure is the Open Core Legacy Patcher? Are you confident that the data will be protected?
Opencore legacy patcher is an EFI bootloader, so it is very unlikely that it even needs to access your data.
what should i doif i want to clean install macos sonoma on my late 2009 imac
idk erase your main hard drive
I have a Mac Pro 2008 3,1.I cant activate the files,its crossed over...
holding [alt] does nothing for me. how do i open the boot picker? im using a windows keyboard.
don't use windows keyboard press option from Mac keyboard
@@AmmarRoblox-nm8xe Alt on a Windows keyboard is the same as using the option button.
Stuck at installing Sonoma to main disk. Stuck at “12 min remaining”
Now I’m at MacOS recovery but it’s taking forever. I installed a new SSD (480gb) and Ram (16g) for my mid-2012 pro.
my mac os mid 2011 high sierra did not work because it got stuck on the disk utility loading like for 20m
I have the same and I cant download anything were u able to update it ?
I can’t get anything working on my 2016 MBP, none of the steps are the same and it’s stressing me out!
Are you using the same version of OpenCore? And what's your problem?
Im not getting EFI BOOT while rebooting
Do we have to select the boot option everytime we poweron the mac?
no u can turn it off
hi what you mean paste to terminal I didn't understand that part
It means he put the terminal command in the description so all you need to do is copy it and paste it in terminal at the correct prompt.
8gb ram is enough ? ill try it ! i have the smae spec that you have with ssd
Macs still today can ship with 8GB of ram! Suprising but true
HAHAHA my only fear is my shy i5 dual core...@@ZealousTech
I keep getting error 71
In the macos recovery there is no internet connection so i cant install the macos please help
I had the same problem on my 2012 MacBook Pro 9,5. so I started the process over again. I also noticed that when I checked my partition folder, Sonoma was an greyed out box w/ a line through it. So the second time around, I had my *Finder open the entire time while using Terminal* so I can check to make sure everything was running smoothly. *When it came down to the Terminal part, didn’t close terminal immediately. Instead, I waited until it finished making a copy and it told me it was successful. You will know when this happens if you see Sonoma up in Finder under the 16GB partition you made w/o a line through it.* Also, do not forget to *add the legacy patcher to your folder!* When everything was done, *I had near 700MB out of 16GB of storage left.*
I closed my applications, restarted my laptop, then held options once the screen went black. When it booted up, I followed what he did-not nothing to chose a network-and everything worked (slow though). I still saw the exclamation point on my wifi bar and wifi networks errr showing up but I was able to successfully update. I’d like to note that around 16 minutes remaining, my screen did freeze so I just left it as it.
When I came back, my laptop had restarted and new boot up options were there. I saw macOS Sonoma, my old disk, and I think Sonoma Installer, if I can remember correctly. I chose macOS Sonoma bcs it looked most like EFI and logged in. It was 1:41 at the time Andy screen was mostly black except my account PFP and the section where I enter my password but quickly changed to the apple logo and a bar with the words “About 28 minutes remaining…” under it. The bar was moving slowly. So slowly that at points, I thought it froze.
brooo i cant do this!!!! please give me detailed video!!!!!!
fuck me it said that it could not be used as media drive and couldnt be erased. might as well just wait till i can use a usb.
Bangladesh
why it starts to download kdk?
it stand for kernel debug kit, it fixes macos issues
Will I lose my data if I upgrade
no unless u erase your hard drive iintentionally
Wifi no work
siri and stage manager is not working
Update it
Does it recognizes the touch id?
The T1 security chip is currently not working in sonoma but in future releases of OpenCore it may be implemented
Widgets not working any fix for that?
On some models (2011 and older) the Widgets are broken due to lack of metal graphics support. There is no current fix
@@ZealousTech I have a Pro 13 2015 model I used OCLP 1.1.0 nightly build. I know it not recommended but it fixed the widget issues. Though it has a minor issue on my 12 MacBook.
what is DESE and paste ??
Description of this video
Tutorial racing is the right caption. Too damn fast for a non-tech learner.
Then slow the video down in RUclips’s settings.
@@ZealousTech I didn't know that. Thanks for tip.
Can i use with 4 gb ram? Will it be stable?
It may not be a good experience, If possible would recommend upgrading before install
@@ZealousTech i have a 2015 air so I can't upgrade, it updates to monterey but it's also going out of support soon. Should I try ventura first?
@@shortsguy1238 yes u should
@@andrewguo5059 🙏 thx 😊
need a password !!
its only says sonoma Installer is not a valid volume mount point please help
It's too late to update it. That's why it's not valid
iMac 9,1 keyboard and mouse not working once on installer screen. What do I do?
Sorry for the late reply, are these bluetooth peripherals or not?
@@ZealousTech no, Apple keyboard and mouse. I do have Bluetooth ones too. Would that work ?
you have to temporarily connect a usb keyboard and mouse through a usb hub, because there are no drivers in Sonoma for usb 1 in older Mac's (bluetooth depends on that too). After installing Sonoma you have to install the root patches with Open Core and then after a reboot your (bluetooth) mouse and keyboard should be working again. The same goes for installing Ventura on older unsupported Mac's
Use USB 2.0 Hub (whatever the brand is, even OEM are still ok), and use wired keyboard & mouse.
Why don't you install Macos Big Sur without USB?
Its a relatively old macOS now but if its wanted then I may do one
@@ZealousTechyou can help me but it doesn't need usb. because I don't have a USB. If you make a video about it, I'd be very grateful
