I'm on Sonoma right now, on a 2009 Mac Pro. I'm 71 and not a super computer nerd....it wasn't rocket science. On this computer I had to buy a METAL compatible graphics card - bought an old GX 680 on Ebay for 30 bucks and flashed the thing as described in a RUclips video - also had to upgrade the firmware on the computer from 4.1 to 5.1. Again, there were videos on RUclips. I think the best part was that I bought this computer, about a month ago, on Ebay for $49 and $36 dollars shipping. The thing is in great condition. I upgraded the RAM to 32 gig for about 30 bucks. So, for around $150.00 I have a nice Mac running the latest OS. Thanks to you and the other folks who provide these videos.
We have converted one Mac Mini 2014 and one MacBook Air 2013 to Chromebooks with ChromeOS Flex without any hardware upgrades or extra costs. The process took about half an hour and now these machines are snappier than ever. We are amazed and grateful for this option since we almost exclusively use online based applications like SmartSuite, ZOHO Projects, MS Office Online and Google Workspace applications.

Soon after the OCLP the system rebooted and I got default upgrade option in system upgrade and I upgraded to 14.5 OS. since I am a beta register account on my Apple ID I immediately got a upgrade option in system for macOS 15. What should I do ?
Just installed Sonoma on my MBAir early 2014 13 inch using your instructions, got stuck in the middle with a black screen with the white Apple logo. Turned the machine off and started over and got back through with no problems. This is without a doubt the best tutorial to use on the interweb, very concise instructions that work.

I am highly impressed with this tutorial .. I have successfully updated my Mac Pro 2012 to Sonoma 14.5 . while I try updating to the new versions 14.6 .. wifi missing to connect. I had to return back to 14.5 versions thanks for the tutorial.
This works great! Very clear directions. I successfully installed Sonoma on my 2014 MacBook Pro, which then let me install TurboTax to get my taxes done. (It took me several days to work up the courage to try it.) Thank you!
Best yet. Now I feel I understand which parts of the process are doing what. The key that I was missing is installing oclp to a disk installs it configured for that specific mac (or other mac if you tell it to with the architrcture selection). Now I feel I can override parts where neccessary, such as using an install disk on another machine by installing oclp for the target achitecture on that disk. This really is the first tutorial of the many Ive seen that explained that properly. Thank you.
honestly - this was easy enough to follow. I am not as tech savvy anymore, and I was able to download open core and instal Sonoma on my 2017 mac book pro
Hey I have the same computer, I have a Mid 2012, to be more specific. I'm stuck with the Open Core Legacy Patcher not completing the download.The download fails after about 30-60 minues in. Any help is great!
Danke, Danke, Danke! Your video with instructions is SUPERB! I had watched another video prior to yours, which had a few omissions. I spent the entire evening trying to achieve the same results as shown in thIS video. Every time I got to the final part of the installation, it would hang. However, your video not only helped me install Sonoma on a 2015 MacBook Pro but also Ventura (fully working - Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and weather) on a mid-2011 MacMini Intel i7. I shared the link to your video on the other person's RUclips page to help others who might have encountered the same issue I did before finding your video. Your instructions were perfect! As we say in America "Good Lookin Out!".
Thumbs up. Mate this is the clearest method I've seen for updating macOS. Thank you for taking the time to share this information. I updated my 2015 MacBook Air to Sonoma using the non-USB method you showed. It took a while but like you said "PATIENCE". Liked and subscribed. :)
This was brilliant, and exactly as promised. The video was calmly and confidently delivered, with just the detail needed. I have used open core before, and always follow a guide video. For me, this has been the best guide to updating with OCLP. Thank you so much. Make sure to play to the end, and turn off automatic updates!.
Really great tutorial. I have a 2009 5,5 that I had already upgraded to Catalina not using OCLP, so it was not up-gradable using this technique. I used a blank SSD mounted internally and booted off the Catalina drive connected through an adapter. Everything worked fine up to the point of installing OCLP on to the USB drive. It would not detect the flash drive. What made it work was connecting a USB 2.0 hub.
It wasn't that it wasn't detecting the flas h drive, but it would not let me select it. An hour later and I'm finishing the setuo for Sonoma. So Happy! Thank you.
I just upgraded my MacBook Air mid 2017 to macOS Sonoma today using this method, I didn’t need a USB drive to do it I just installed it using Software Update
you are a star !!! thank you soooo much I'm doing it tomorrow!! I thought my 2014 MacBook Pro was going to be useless until I saw this!! thank you again!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I followed your original tutorial and it worked somewhat but everything such as text and apps were zoomed out. I followed this tutorial and everything went back to normal and still with the recent version of OS. Thank you sir, u got a new sub
I have an early 2011 macbook pro 13.3 laptop. Tried installing Monterey, Ventura, and Sonoma. All worked fine with OCLP installed. Settled on Ventura for these reasons: 1) Many apps are no longer supported on Monterey such as Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. 2) Sonoma is too slow and some programs such as Firefox often froze, and 3) Ventura is zippier than Sonoma and all the programs I have tried so far worked without a glitch. Only is issue is the nag from apple to upgrade to Sonoma in the System Setting which ignore. So far very happy with the upgrade. Allows me to use my laptop with more modern apps without a problem
11:14 I looked at several other video's how to create a usb drive, but missed that part how to check and set the model. So I wondered why the progress bar did not advanced... Thanks for that!
Thank you Jessie, I've just upgraded my system following part 2 of your tutorial. It was so easy and everything works fine ! My SYS Spec: - iMac 5k 27in late 2014 [iMac15,1] running latest Big Sur - Intel i7 Quad Core 4Ghz - AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4GB - RAM 32GB 1600 MHz DDR3 (self upgraded) - SSD hard drive (self upgraded, two discs set as fusion drive) Upgraded to Sonoma 14.1.2 using OCLP 1.2.1 Discs: disk0 - APPLE SSD SM0128G - 121.33GB
I just installed Sonoma on my test SSD on Mac Pro 5,1 2012. Went very smooth. Actually it was easier than Ventura. Thank you again for easy installation video!!! :)
FYI, few pointers from my experience. 1. I was able to install Sonoma on Samsung 1TB NVMe but I had to use OCLP 0.6.8, I could not use latest OCLP v.1.1, it kept giving me blank screen after installation 2. I used OCLP v.1.1 for root patching after Sonoma installed and it worked fine
Working amazing on both my old macs, mid 2015 running 100% smooth, mid 2012 does not feel as snappy (had Linux install before) but still very useable. Thank you very much 😊
@Jessie’s Flying thank you so much for you aid in this you a colossal help. I followed your recommendations and now I’m running Monterey on my mid 2011 iMac 27” thank you again sir I really really appreciate you!
Hello Jessie! i ran the newest open core patch on a new hard drive in a macbook air 2012 and worked flawlessly! no issues so far and is running at good performace!
Hi! Thanks for this video! I have and imac 2013late 21”. I change de Hdd for ssd and the 8g of ram to 16gb. It work great, it open all the apps and dont freeze it there are some delay but nothing to die. But this is important to know, if you want to install sonoma on you imac-mac you need to have at least IOS HIGH SIERRA to proceed with the update. if you dont have it ,the Open core legacy patcher will not run the sonoma system update. Thanks for the video!! Update: there is an update in the OPEN Core legacy patcher to 1.3.0
Just installed on my 2013 MacBook Pro. Works perfectly . Apple is disgraceful for making their equipment obsolete after a few years and contributing to e-waste !
👍 Finally I Sucessed. Thank You!!! Serveral month early I installed sucessful Sonoma but something wrong with thoudbolt/dp moniter output so i timecapule it back. This time I follow your steps , My Top custumized MacBook Pro Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2 GB/Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 rebirthed.
Great tutorial! Will pass it along. Thought I was in trouble when I just had a white screen and no WIFI, then I realized I forgot to watch the 2nd half of your video about drivers. Haha. Ran the post-install updates, it took two restarts, first brought the WIFI back, second brought the graphics acceleration back. Seems like some minor issues, like my FireFox keeps logging me out of Google and things, but will play with that tomorrow. Thanks for a quick and easy to understand guide!
@@JessiesFlying Everything working 100% pretty much. Had some screen glitches when I opened up Photoshop, but updated it and seems to be working fine. I love Apple, but sometimes they make you shake your head. My maxed out 2015 is faster than most 2017's, but I'm not supported. 🤷🏼♂️
Ive done every upgrade , macos and oclp, on my MBP 2012 until Ventura. I ran Ventura on my 2012 for months but it didnt act right. I think I had some graphics compatibility issues with metal. I downgraded to Monterey and it worked perfectly. I assumed that Monterey would be the latest ver my mac could tolerate. That being said, I decided to give Sonoma a shot and to my surprise Sonoma is working perfectly.
Hi Jessie, This tutorial is very helpful, I installed it to my iMac 2012. It is perfect and running very well except the Safari Browser. I'm having a problem watching any kind of video in safari like Netflix and youtube it become like a pixelate or distorted videos and suddenly become black. So i decided not to use safari and to use google chrome. Now it's running perfect without any problem watching video. Thank you Jessie. Hopefully to hear from you for the another download another version of opencore mas os sonama.
Great video and tutorial Jessie. I don't see the link to your discord group. I run a Mac Pro Users Group on Facebook, we always post your new video's, especially how to install OCLP with a PC graphics card, and how to EnableGOP on a 5,1 Mac Pro.
How does your 2013 MacBook Air performs in SONOMA with only 4gb of ram? Is it any good for day to day tasks (web browsing and using Microsoft office suite)? Thanks for the great tutorial!
Going to try this now on my mbp 2015! Just wanted to ask - some reviews on the internet say the old machines heat a lot after this. Has it happened to you? What has been your experience like? I have the AMD graphics version of MBP 2015 with 512gb SSD. Thank you for your work!
Jessie, thanks for the great tutorial - very clear and concise. I have an older 2011 27" iMac (12,2) - I know your recommendation is 2012 and later, I do have 16gb memory and replaced the hard drive with a 1TB SSD. The last supported OS was High Sierra - and I have bootcamp running Widows 10 which I was planning to remove. I know the graphics card is non-metal - so there will be functionality loss. The machine is not my main computer and would otherwise go into storage. Do you know of any issues that would prevent OCLP from completing on this machine? thanks
my 2011 iMac runs latest Sonoma fine, just all maps don't work (also in photos and weather app) and sometimes Safari freezes the iMac for about 30 seconds - but the rest works...
Quick question: I installed and everything works like a charm on my iMac late 2015. Now that everything works fine should I back up everything on Time Machine HD or should I keep it with the previous original state back up before the patch? Well done for your job. Subscribed.
Great video! I have the same MacBook Air 2015 with 4gb ram currently with Monterey. Need to ask you what is the performance of the MacBook Air with these specs running Sonoma? Does it perform decently? Or is it too sluggish ? Can you comment on that please? Thanks
Hi Jessie! Thank you for another top notch tutorial video! I'm curios, when doing a clean install, do you recommend formatting the hard drive to APFS, macOS Extended (Journaled) or does it even matter? Thanks! All the best to you and yours! I hope you are enjoying your visit to the U.S.A.!!! ~ MJ
I have tried oclp and I have to say that you will need to check the gpu issues section before choosing the suitable operating system for your device. certain apps require metal or legacy gpu drivers. and this causes some minor bugs.
Thanks for making such great video, Jessie. i have a question, my 5,1 is currently runnning Montery with OCLP. I am wondering, can i upgrade to Sonoma just simply hit "install" under System Preference -> software update and then apply latest version of OCLP, instead of installing the OS from scratch?
Hi Jessie! Thanks a lot for the tutorial! Everithing seems easy and flowless! I would like to ask for an advice from you: I have two very old Macs (Mac Pro early 2009 and Mac Book Pro Mid 2009) -> which OS do you suggest for these two Macs? Thanks a lot for your time!!
@@JessiesFlying thanks for the hint! The problem is that most of the softwares now require at least OS 10.14… I was thinking of Big Sur, what do you think? Thanks again
@@JessiesFlying correct! I already changed the graphic card of the Mac Pro with a GTX 680 + PCI SSD + PCI USB3.0. I could try Big Sur at least with the Mac Pro. What do you think? I would like to update basic softwares like internet browsers, office, photos… stuff like that. I’m aware that the hardware is old… but it’s better than nothing.
Impressive video as usual! I've been enjoying macOS Sonoma on my iMac 27 5K 2015 for a few months now. However, after the latest update of OpenCore Patcher, my startup screen seems to be stuck with no loading bar. Is there a chance that everything is lost?
Excellent video; you do a fantastic job explaining this! One question: I have a 2013 Mac Pro with a Boot Camp Windows 10 installation. Will the Open Core boot selector continue to show my Windows volume at start-up? Thanks! 😁
ive been running mac os monterey, ventura and sonoma on my MacPro 3,1 from 2008 with an RX580 4gb and ive had better results with sonoma and monterey than with ventura. the root patches required me to reboot twice for whatever reason on sonoma, but other than that it works perfectly aside from no bluetooth and no superdrive recognition.

Hi, very good video, I have a question. My 2014 MacBook Pro dual boots with a smaller partition containing Windows 10 to enable me to run certain amateur radio software not available for the Mac platform. Can I still use the video to update the Mac partition? Many thanks.
Thank you for great video. Upgraded my iMac16,2 from Monterey to Sonoma 14,2 without any problems. I am new to OCLP and wonder how I can upgrade to Sonoma 14.2.1 the best way. Is it with the Apple upgrade (it offers me that) or by doing the OCLP upgrade as I did with 14.2?
Which would be your recommendation for a MacBook pro 2012? I mean the BEST relationship between "advantages" and "Problems" IN PRACTICE. Would be Sonoma or any other? My problem is that I need BigSur or Higher, Catalina is not longer compatible with most of the apps I need.......
hi , i just became a fan of your's such a good way of explanation. Its a request can you please upload the tutorial to install the lasted IPAD OS in old ipad such as ipad mini 2 which i have. would be really appriciated.
Ok, Im back with resolved issues. 😁 My MBP 2012 was running Sonoma 14 and OCLP 1.1.0. When 14.1 came out , I thought, "Im good with OCLP" lets do the upgrade. It bricked my Macbook. Got to the 30 percent progression indicator and never went forward. I tried all the suggestions from Mr. Mac but nothing worked. I had recently replaced my 500gb SSD with a 2 TB SSD and kinda messed up my BOOTCAMP partition for Windows. After getting bootcamp working, finally, I ended up with a defunct 400gb bootcamp partition that was just wasting space. The "bricking" of my MBP gave me incentive to just do a "wipe clean" fresh install. I created installing media using 1.1.0 OCLP and Sonoma 14.1 install file. Everything worked perfectly including reclaiming my 400gb bootcamp defunct partition. I dont know why the upgrade path didnt work for me but the wiping of the SSD and starting fresh sure as hell worked. Great channel BTW.
Thanks a lot for this video, very useful ! I have one question. Is it possible to keep one Volume with Monterey and one volume with Sonoma on the same disk (with a Mac Pro 2013) ? Thanks for your advice.
I think that you should explain to everyone that before you try to upgrade ..you should upgrade ram and go for an ssd drive...that would definitely make the computers snappier...thanks
One question, i went to update my macbook to the latest version of sonoma but i'm having problems now. Is there a way to go back to the first version I had?@@JessiesFlying
I have a 2015 12" Macbook. When trying to install, after about 20 minutes remaining in the GUI Macos installer, it reboots. It then continues to reboot when i try to resume the install. Going to try Ventura
I installed sonoma in my MacBook mid 2012. There is 8GB Ram in the MacBook but it’s looks slow it also have a 250gb SSD! Could you please say, why it’s happening?
great tutorial! just a quick question, ive already got opencore patcher installed and want to upgrade from monteray to sonoma, do i still need to do the ' build the patcher' option, or can i just skip to downloading the os installer? thanks
@@JessiesFlying In the First Step (4:55) you clicked build and Intall Open core, and then the MacBook bootet and then you’ve got sonoma as an normal update. And I wanted to ask if it is possible to get big sur as an normal update and not sonoma
thanx for this video. Ever tried senoma on macbook pro mid 2012? if yes everrything works fine? i'm not sure if installing senoma or ventura, what do u suggest?
I was downloading Sonoma and stepped away from my 2012 Mac Pro and it ran the installer . When I got back it was running Sonoma but absolutely sluggish. No graphic acceleration. Tons of issues like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi not working. I rolled back to Monterey real quick on the NVMe. So this is a problematic OS for a Mac Pro. Let me know your thoughts when testing. I don’t see it being compatible unless they really write some amazing patches
I ran the latest root patch and also did the post install patch. Remember mine was an upgrade from Monterey so maybe that’s the issue. Or maybe it was because the OS is on an NVMe? Is there NVMe support built into the patch? I will test as a fresh install on another Mac Pro using a SSD this weekend
You are the first German who speaks fluent English!, no accent.....Anyway, updates have to set to off but how gets the system up to date if no updates are getting in, will open core take care of that and how? Good video by the way.

It wasn't that it wasn't detecting the flas h drive, but it would not let me select it. An hour later and I'm finishing the setuo for Sonoma. So Happy! Thank you.

I have an early 2011 macbook pro 13.3 laptop. Tried installing Monterey, Ventura, and Sonoma. All worked fine with OCLP installed. Settled on Ventura for these reasons: 1) Many apps are no longer supported on Monterey such as Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. 2) Sonoma is too slow and some programs such as Firefox often froze, and 3) Ventura is zippier than Sonoma and all the programs I have tried so far worked without a glitch. Only is issue is the nag from apple to upgrade to Sonoma in the System Setting which ignore. So far very happy with the upgrade. Allows me to use my laptop with more modern apps without a problem
Just switch the search for updates off…
This is the best instructional video on installing macOS on uninstalled Macs. Thanks a million!!
😁 sharing appreciated
Great video, I made several upgrades using the USB method, just now I see that it can be done directly on a system with OpenCore.
11:14 I looked at several other video's how to create a usb drive, but missed that part how to check and set the model. So I wondered why the progress bar did not advanced... Thanks for that!
Thank you Jessie, I've just upgraded my system following part 2 of your tutorial. It was so easy and everything works fine ! My SYS Spec:
- iMac 5k 27in late 2014 [iMac15,1] running latest Big Sur
- Intel i7 Quad Core 4Ghz
- AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4GB
- RAM 32GB 1600 MHz DDR3 (self upgraded)
- SSD hard drive (self upgraded, two discs set as fusion drive)
Upgraded to Sonoma 14.1.2 using OCLP 1.2.1
Discs:

FYI, few pointers from my experience. 1. I was able to install Sonoma on Samsung 1TB NVMe but I had to use OCLP 0.6.8, I could not use latest OCLP v.1.1, it kept giving me blank screen after installation 2. I used OCLP v.1.1 for root patching after Sonoma installed and it worked fine

But this is important to know, if you want to install sonoma on you imac-mac you need to have at least IOS HIGH SIERRA to proceed with the update. if you dont have it ,the Open core legacy patcher will not run the sonoma system update. Thanks for the video!! Update: there is an update in the OPEN Core legacy patcher to 1.3.0
Good video. Tried this on my Macbook 2013 and it went smoothly until I rebooted and can't turn on wifi

Great tutorial! Will pass it along. Thought I was in trouble when I just had a white screen and no WIFI, then I realized I forgot to watch the 2nd half of your video about drivers. Haha. Ran the post-install updates, it took two restarts, first brought the WIFI back, second brought the graphics acceleration back. Seems like some minor issues, like my FireFox keeps logging me out of Google and things, but will play with that tomorrow. Thanks for a quick and easy to understand guide!

Ive done every upgrade , macos and oclp, on my MBP 2012 until Ventura. I ran Ventura on my 2012 for months but it didnt act right. I think I had some graphics compatibility issues with metal. I downgraded to Monterey and it worked perfectly. I assumed that Monterey would be the latest ver my mac could tolerate. That being said, I decided to give Sonoma a shot and to my surprise Sonoma is working perfectly.
Great to hear!

Hi Jessie, This tutorial is very helpful, I installed it to my iMac 2012. It is perfect and running very well except the Safari Browser. I'm having a problem watching any kind of video in safari like Netflix and youtube it become like a pixelate or distorted videos and suddenly become black. So i decided not to use safari and to use google chrome. Now it's running perfect without any problem watching video. Thank you Jessie. Hopefully to hear from you for the another download another version of opencore mas os sonama.
Thx for the insight

How does your 2013 MacBook Air performs in SONOMA with only 4gb of ram? Is it any good for day to day tasks (web browsing and using Microsoft office suite)? Thanks for the great tutorial!
Yes it’s quite ok. No speed wonder, but fairly ok
Work great on MacBook 12 inch with Sonoma. Thank you
Going to try this now on my mbp 2015! Just wanted to ask - some reviews on the internet say the old machines heat a lot after this. Has it happened to you? What has been your experience like? I have the AMD graphics version of MBP 2015 with 512gb SSD. Thank you for your work!
@@anirudhdeshmukh I haven’t noticed much more heat but nevertheless it’s a new macOS more demanding. But you should be fine with the dGPU 👍
Great tutorial, @JessiesFlying. I noticed you suggest hitting the Ctrl button when booting up and choosing the boot disk. Is that necessary?
Nope, it just sets it as standard boot option
Jessie, thanks for the great tutorial - very clear and concise. I have an older 2011 27" iMac (12,2) - I know your recommendation is 2012 and later, I do have 16gb memory and replaced the hard drive with a 1TB SSD. The last supported OS was High Sierra - and I have bootcamp running Widows 10 which I was planning to remove. I know the graphics card is non-metal - so there will be functionality loss. The machine is not my main computer and would otherwise go into storage. Do you know of any issues that would prevent OCLP from completing on this machine? thanks
my 2011 iMac runs latest Sonoma fine, just all maps don't work (also in photos and weather app) and sometimes Safari freezes the iMac for about 30 seconds - but the rest works...
thanks for the feedback @@JessiesFlying
Quick question: I installed and everything works like a charm on my iMac late 2015. Now that everything works fine should I back up everything on Time Machine HD or should I keep it with the previous original state back up before the patch?
Well done for your job. Subscribed.
@@Acruxni you can only use the TimeMachine backup for the same macOS version, so if you plan to go back better keep the original backup
Great video! I have the same MacBook Air 2015 with 4gb ram currently with Monterey. Need to ask you what is the performance of the MacBook Air with these specs running Sonoma? Does it perform decently? Or is it too sluggish ? Can you comment on that please?
Thanks
With 4GB RAM it’s really on the edge… I would recommend Monterey…
Hi Jessie! Thank you for another top notch tutorial video! I'm curios, when doing a clean install, do you recommend formatting the hard drive to APFS, macOS Extended (Journaled) or does it even matter? Thanks! All the best to you and yours! I hope you are enjoying your visit to the U.S.A.!!! ~ MJ
Doesn’t matter, but I always use macOS extended to get rid of any APFS partitions. macOS will change it into APFS during install again
Jessie, Danke!!! This is the tutorial I asked for.
😬 gerne teilen!
@@JessiesFlying Hab ich schon getan...
I have tried oclp and I have to say that you will need to check the gpu issues section before choosing the suitable operating system for your device. certain apps require metal or legacy gpu drivers. and this causes some minor bugs.
correct
Thanks for making such great video, Jessie. i have a question, my 5,1 is currently runnning Montery with OCLP. I am wondering, can i upgrade to Sonoma just simply hit "install" under System Preference -> software update and then apply latest version of OCLP, instead of installing the OS from scratch?
Yes you can, but install latest OCLP before hitting “update” ☝️
Hi Jessie! Thanks a lot for the tutorial! Everithing seems easy and flowless! I would like to ask for an advice from you: I have two very old Macs (Mac Pro early 2009 and Mac Book Pro Mid 2009) -> which OS do you suggest for these two Macs? Thanks a lot for your time!!
Maximum of high Sierra ☝️
@@JessiesFlying thanks for the hint! The problem is that most of the softwares now require at least OS 10.14… I was thinking of Big Sur, what do you think? Thanks again
@@paiaria there will be no graphic acceleration at all - and most newer software needs hardware features these old MACs don't provide
@@JessiesFlying correct! I already changed the graphic card of the Mac Pro with a GTX 680 + PCI SSD + PCI USB3.0. I could try Big Sur at least with the Mac Pro. What do you think?
I would like to update basic softwares like internet browsers, office, photos… stuff like that. I’m aware that the hardware is old… but it’s better than nothing.

Which would be your recommendation for a MacBook pro 2012? I mean the BEST relationship between "advantages" and "Problems" IN PRACTICE. Would be Sonoma or any other? My problem is that I need BigSur or Higher, Catalina is not longer compatible with most of the apps I need.......
@@neurologiaoliveros Monterey is my favorite choice for older Macs, but if you have 8GB RAM and SSD Sonoma should run fine as well

i don't have any clue about iOS (yet)...
Ok, Im back with resolved issues. 😁 My MBP 2012 was running Sonoma 14 and OCLP 1.1.0. When 14.1 came out , I thought, "Im good with OCLP" lets do the upgrade. It bricked my Macbook. Got to the 30 percent progression indicator and never went forward. I tried all the suggestions from Mr. Mac but nothing worked. I had recently replaced my 500gb SSD with a 2 TB SSD and kinda messed up my BOOTCAMP partition for Windows. After getting bootcamp working, finally, I ended up with a defunct 400gb bootcamp partition that was just wasting space. The "bricking" of my MBP gave me incentive to just do a "wipe clean" fresh install. I created installing media using 1.1.0 OCLP and Sonoma 14.1 install file. Everything worked perfectly including reclaiming my 400gb bootcamp defunct partition. I dont know why the upgrade path didnt work for me but the wiping of the SSD and starting fresh sure as hell worked. Great channel BTW.
thx
Thanks a lot for this video, very useful ! I have one question. Is it possible to keep one Volume with Monterey and one volume with Sonoma on the same disk (with a Mac Pro 2013) ? Thanks for your advice.
That should be possible so that you can select the macOS in OpenCore 👍
I think that you should explain to everyone that before you try to upgrade ..you should upgrade ram and go for an ssd drive...that would definitely make the computers snappier...thanks

I was downloading Sonoma and stepped away from my 2012 Mac Pro and it ran the installer . When I got back it was running Sonoma but absolutely sluggish. No graphic acceleration. Tons of issues like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi not working. I rolled back to Monterey real quick on the NVMe. So this is a problematic OS for a Mac Pro. Let me know your thoughts when testing.

@@MohamedMoolla nah, it seems you forgot the root patch. Sonoma 14.0 runs fine on my MacPro, I’m still testing 14.1….
