This is a n excellent guide. Thank you for taking the time to make it insightful but pretty simple for beginners. EVERYONE who needs to install an OS on an unsupported Mac should watch this. Waiting on news to see how the guys hopefully find a workaround for Ventura and the cheesegrater. and YES YES YES a live session will be awesome
We’ll see😬
Congratulations on your channel, it’s neat, clear thoughts 💭 and very precise.
Thx! 😬
I’ve been watching your channel for a while now. Yesterday I finally upgraded my Mac Pro 5,1 from Mojave (RX580) to Monterey with OCLP 1.2.1 and it was a joy. Took quite some time but all went well.
Thank you so much for the detailed guides, and great advices on the channel 🙏💪🔥
Thx, you’re welcome!
This is THE BEST video so far I've seen around this topic (and I've seen plenty, gone into the rabbit hole of mac forums). ALL my questions and doubts were answered, like if you were reading my mind! 🤯. The only question I would have is sometimes when I'm on the bootloader menu and click on EFI, it doesn't "enter" to the "sub-menu" where the installer is, it just shows again the whole bootloader menu. Any idea in what would be happening? I have saved this video already and FOR SURE will come back again and use it as my Bible. Again, THANKS SO MUCH for putting this video!! 🙌🏼
Thank you for your kind words - that means a lot to me! Sharing is appreciated ;-) But I never heard about your error that OpenCore doesn't load when you click on EFI Boot. Maybe do a NRAM reset and see if that happens again...
@@JessiesFlying I did all the process as you describe in this video, and after weeks (literally) of searching everywhere, trying everything, now my Mac Pro 5.1 is running the latest version of Monterey! 🙌🏼 Everything's working perfectly (so far). Just two quick questions. I checked on System Report that SIP is disabled (I used the "lowered" option when creating the boot as you mentioned), so my question is if I should enable it back and if I should do it on terminal on recovery mode or if there's a way to do it through OCLP?
Another quick question, do you know why if I have two monitors connected to a Radeon RX 560 (DVI & HDMI) I can't see the boot loader menu, but if I have just one connected (DVI) I can see it? 🤔
Thanks again for everything! I'm following you know for your brilliantly simple but powerful advice!
@@javmb you have to enable SIP in the settings of the OpenCore Legacy patcher and reinstall it to your boot disk, otherwise if you enable it via terminal it will automatically being disabled next boot again.
When your Mac boots try pressing arrow left and right, this should disable the automatic selection of your macOS and show the OpenCore Boot selector (it’s normally just because it waits only 1 second and your screen doesn’t show it). 👍🚀
Thank you to the Hackintosh developers and the Hackintosh community for making this possible over the years. Opencore was first developed for Hackintosh. Later for real Macs, too. Without Hackintosh on Intel PC and AMD PC - no Opencore. This is the state of affairs! Best regards from my Hackintosh
So delighted to come across this channel. I have been stuck on the floor with my 5,1 Mac Pro trying to get it to start. Now I know why I could not do it. Great channel.
thx!
I’ve watched a lot of tutorials on how to install through opencore and this is by far the best tutorial. Good detail and thankyou.
Thank you so much! Sharing appreciated 😬
I installed Monterey on a 2011 21.5 iMac two days ago and I'm a first timer Mac user and I'm impressed, if I would try to install win10 or 11 on a 10 year old pc that wouldn't even boot😆
I do a lot off CAD in work and I do a lot of it home as well for 3D printing so I needed a "new" all in one computer in my garage that could handle it and the iMac was so cheap that I thought why not test it and so far it have handle everything very well☺️ I do most off my Cads on my new iPad but it have always bean a hassle to get the files to the pc for slicing but not now☺️
Great to hear, bringing this old hardware to a use...!
@@JessiesFlying yeah,I don't know why it took so long to get a Mac😂 I've bean using windows since win3.11😆
I have "everything" els from apple so😆 but shouldn't the iMac snap up if I play a song or so on my iPhone like my iPad dose?🤔 Apple Music? Apple TV+ doesn't work but I guess it's because I have the ATI 6750m gpu
you have to search the forums for that, that is too specific for me....
do you see a decline in speed and performance?
@@makovitchkonda3960 just wait for today’s video😬
This is an important video, and I thank you for it, but I do need make one correction. If I understood you correctly, you said that RAM cannot be upgraded on a 2010 Mac mini. Actually there is socketed RAM on all Mac minis, other than the 2014 and the M1. Specifically with the 2010 through 2012 Minis, the upgrade is very easy, and the machines can address as much as 16 GB.
You’re right, I was not clear enough in my video: Apple didn’t plan that you change the RAM and it needs a little bit of technical knowledge, but it is possible!
Thank you for the time you put into helping the rest of us. I couldn’t have done it without your detailed explanation .
You’re very welcome ☺️
Thank you so very much. Because of your videos on how to install Mac OS Monterey on my old 2010 Mac Pro, I have been able to resurrect that old beast and keep using it. It has been my favorite computer for a long time, and I missed it when I was forced to upgrade my OS by some 3rd party app developer. The videos are wonderful. Thanks again!! 👍
You’re welcome, sharing appreciated 😬
Hi Jessie, great video! I have 3 questions for you (sorry for the length, but I would like to understand well):
I have a Mac pro 5.1 (mid 2010) with Mojave on ssd disk named “PRINCIPLE” and a Sapphire RX580 Nitro+ 4Gb (not flashed, so without boot screen). I installed a new ssd DISK named “SECOND” into the Mac (cleaned and inizialized as Mac Os journaled, where I want to install Monterey).
Then I have a 16Gb pendrive (chapter 3 of your video)
Here’s my questions:
1) when the pendrive creation is finished, do I have to install the OpenCore bootloader into the pendrive OR into the ssd disk named “SECOND”? Because I think that, if I install into the pendrive, then I have to keep inserted forever...
2) Then I’ll proceed to Build and install OpenCore on ssd disk “SECOND” (chapter 2 of your video). Then instead of rebooting the system, I would shut it down, remove the system hard disk “PRINCIPLE” (so only the "SECOND" disk and the pendrive would remain connected) and boot the system WITHOUT pressing ALT. Do you think this would work, considering that with my video card I can't see the boot "?
3) If everything works, can I create a Time Machine Image so I can recovery it (in the future) without repeating the whole procedure all over again?
Thank you very much!
Install the OpenCore onto the USB and boot from it. After installing macOS from the USB onto SECOND you just start the legacy patcher again and install it onto the SECOND, then you don’t need the USB for booting anymore. When you only boot with USB and empty SSD, it should boot OpenCore from USB automatically…
Time Machine Backups will work, but make sure you always update OpenCore before updating macOs
@@JessiesFlying Thanks bro!
Hey I was asking about since I have upgraded to Monterey or bigsur or Catalina my wifi card doesn’t work I mean it works but it doesn’t connect to any networks and when I try to connect to any network it says it was unable to I was using macOS Monterey 12.2 my Mac is a mid 2009 MacBook Pro and an early 2009 iMac and for the oclp I always use the latest version any help would be appreciated
looks like the WiFi is so old, you'd better buy a cheap supported USB WiFi stick and use this...
@@JessiesFlying aww :( yeah that’s what I did thought it was a me problem but thanks for the help
MacBook Pro (15 Zoll, Ende 2008), Monterey 12.6.1 (21G215): LAN and WiFi no problem. Never.

I installed Monterey on my Macbook Pro mid 2009, after updating RAM and update to SSD. Works like a dream.
Great to hear! 👍
Jessie...15:17 literally saved me from throwing my cMP into the Chesapeake Bay! I have been wracking my brains trying to get the Hardware Acceleration to work on this cMP. I gave up on my old Nvidia Quadros and upgraded to an AMC Radeon (Pixlas Mod) 6900XT and while faster and stronger, still, no HWA for H264, but yes for HEVC. And I could never get my DRM content to play, so I lived with it for a very long time. The last several hours I played with the new OCLP and tried some settings, even adjusted my spoof level to none and bricked my installation. I had to start all over. So after getting back up with Monterey 12.6.6, I started looking into Martin Lo's OCP to solve this issue. and sure enough, nothing worked. Nothing against them, I was trying to "cross pollinate" MLOCP with OCLP. It just doesn't work. After leaving the Mac Rumor forums, I'd just about given up for the night. I watched a great video from Joerg Hennignes of Open Core, and his great great videos on using MLOCP, and I was preparing to do a full MLOCP, already missing my wonderful experience with the OCLP, and then...I saw this guide up next on the YT queue Jessie's Flying for Unsupported Macs with Monterey & Ventura - Ultimate Tutorial and I landed on 15:17. It was too good to be true. I said, well, why not. I had just given up for the night, but rebooted my cMP, and tried 'Revert Root Patches'. Well, wouldn't you know it. It worked!!! I now have H264 and HEVC Hardware Acceleration and FINALLY DRM content that actually works! So Jessie, keep flying, my friend! Thank you very much for your work and making my night, and my work day tomorrow, even better! All the best to you and yours! God Bless! ~ MJ
Great to be able to help! I would really appreciate if you can advertise my video / channel on all your communities to help me grow 😊
I want you to know. I was stuck on the upgrade. Your video was able to help me work around so I could upgrade Ventura with my late 2014 Macbook Pro 15". It seems to be working fine. many thanks!!
😊
For a few months i installed Monterey with OCLP on my 2010 iMac 27 inch. There were a few programs that didn’t work. Maps, garageband, Memoji’s and a few other things did not work. Now i installed an already flashed k2100m 2gb videocard and had troubles again. After listening here to your tip about changing the videocard in the macPro and the option ‘revert the post install root patch’ my problem was solved. Just did that and than did the install root patch over and everything is fully working. After that i installed Ventura and it works flawlessly.
Thank you very much again for your tips.❤
Great to hear! That’s why I’m doing it! 🚀
You guys are amazing ! My late 2014 iMac retina 27” can be modern again!

Brilliant and helpful video on how to give our brilliant but ageing Mac's a few more years of useful life. Otherwise have to convert them all to running Unix!
That’s the last resort… 😉
Dankeschön, perfekte Anleitung, besser geht es nicht, ich bin begeistert, mein „altes MacBook Pro Late 2014“ auf Ventura geupdatet und danach das kleine Problem mit der Grafikkarte auch noch gelöst…..
Sehr gut, immer gerne weitersagen 😬
Great video Marcus and very easy to understand your explanations and instructions. I have a 2009 iMac which I upgraded last year using Dos-Dude Catalina tool, and assume I can now use Open Core to get me to Monterey and beyond -- thanks in advance for the help. Also a you-tube session sounds interesting to further the conversation of unsupported Macs.
Be careful, don’t upgrade a patched macOS! Do a clean install with OpenCore🚀
@@JessiesFlying Thanks for the advice, will make sure it is a clean install --- appreciate all you are doing for us!
Very useful 😎
Thank You very much 👍

Great! 😬
Thanks a lot Jessie! I now can use my MacPro 4,1 (2009 ex 4,1) with OCLP 0.6.8 and Ventura 13.6 and it works perfect from a NVME-Drive and a Radeon RX 590 RX. USB-3-PCI is working, had to reset some rights on the other Harddrives, but bluetooth is working, Wifi is working, not a lot difference in speed coming from Catalina. Could also change the Icons in dock to my favorites and im really happy. Never could use Handoff, Airdrop and now I can use all the features from my watch also. Thanks for all the good advice and also the boot-trick with my PC-GPU.

@@JessiesFlying I want to do a uefi win 10 install on single nvme boot drive that already has high sierra and also monterey done via OCLP... is it Safe to install windows on the nvme as long as its booted Thru the opencore booter? does this prevent any certificate issues from corrupting bootrom? i want windows on that nvme and cant seem to get a legacy install possible unless i do it as UEFI... any help appreciated...the whole 4,1-5,1 bootrom corruption threads had me worried...I would think open core with secureboot option OFF should prevent this..what are ur thoughts?
@@skip741x3 i’m actually working on a video about windows on unsupported Macs… stay tuned! 😬
@@JessiesFlying Thanks Jesse! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for ur latest vids....Have you had any experience with martin lo's premade efi for the 5,1? supposedly, its all set ready to roll and has a Ton of extra perks added in including windows uefi install protection for bootrom against secure boot certificates... ive done the OCLP monterey on my 5,1 and monterey works incredibly good.. However, i wanted to try martins EFI and swapped out the OCLP efi of the usb installer with his efi.. it booted high sierra no issue but the boot screen froze when trying to boot monterey.. do u know if its compatible?
@@skip741x3 did you use the latest of his packages? You have to swap the whole directory, not only config.plist…
Thank you 😊

Great channel!
Just installed Monterey 12.6 through OCLP on a heavily upgraded Mac Pro 5,1. Looks quite good. But, there's one major issue you can follow in the internet. Since Monterey 12.3, support for 10gb ethernet seems to be changed somehow. So, e.g. the common AQC chip series and others no longer work on a Mac Pro 5,1. And OCLP currently doesn't seem to provide a solution for that. 10gbe is quite common on upgraded older Mac Pros. A video on this topic and your findings would be great!!!
I have to dig deeper into that, but I don’t have anything to test here…
My Mac Mini 2011 (I7 2GHz) runs Ventura OK... its not fantastic but it runs not bad as a backup system. OCLP of course.
I struggled to update or upgrade my iMac for many many years because of Apple's obsoletism. Now this is the real ultimate tutorial that will make me stand on, my two feet and get into D.I.Y t and "beat up" Apple!!! Thanks.

Hello Jessie, wonderfully condensed with all info needed - straight to the point and very clear explanations. Appreciate for putting up so much time to help us people like me !
After following all your steps, I got the OS Ventura installed over OS Monterey and have 2 issues -
Apple logo during the boot screen is abnormally huge like a real size apple - how to reduce it to its normal size?
After log in, storeuid comes up every time - what is this? is it okay to get this or needs to be removed and How to?
Great to hear! The apple logo size is just a graphic driver issue as it’s loaded, but I don’t know why the store ID comes up… 🤔

8:44 min ff. The whole physical (external) drive will be used. If the HD, usb or ssd has partitions on it - they will be gone and used for the OCLP.
I am quite sure that I picked the right "disk0s2", "disk1s1" or what it says when you be prompted to pick the disk for the installer. Maybe I´am wrong and the first thing is a backup anyhow, oder so ähnlich.
Yes, the installer wipes the whole drive where it is installed on… 😖
Jesse ROXS. Yes I also jumped from Mojave to Monterey. Weird thing is I held down the option key down forever and never booted. Tried three times on restart and never boot the EFI boot screen. Then I just restarted without holding the option key and the darn EFI boot screet popped ??, anyhow thank you Jesse.
Very helpful video
I just installed Big Sur on my mid 2009 MacBook Pro using OCLP and it’s working great.
Devs have done an amazing job
How can I check if need to remove root patch to confirm whether or not my hardware acceleration is on?
It had the Nvidia 9400M graphics card
Check out my video for that (look for VideoProc - download link in description: ruclips.net/video/1ndbt6evw54/видео.html
THANK YOY VERY MUCH JESSIE, such great tutorial, BEST ONE EVER ON RUclips SO FAR, you made it so easy to the average computer guy! like not other! cant thank you enough, just subscribed an liked to your channel! ( been stuck trying to install Monterey for the last 2 weeks without success, until just a few minutes ago, now up and running smopthly, mac pro 2009. 5,1
one final question though; although it is not much of an issue, as you have explained very well, but when it comes to revert root patching (due to the fact i used the old original Graphics card to be able to see the boot up screen ) do I have to revert the root patching with the old card still in place or with the new graphics card am using now??
now lets say i did have reverted the root patching with the old card in , so when i do the reboot with the new card in place do I have to start all over and start root patching againg with the new card in?? something you did not mention and just wanted to make sure, thank you once again Jessie, watching all the way from Ecuador.
yes, best way is to not apply root patches with old GPU, swap new GPU in and then do root patches. if you have them already installed revert them, swap GPU and install them again
Thanks for share. Sucess update my 2015 macbook 12"

I would recommend Big Sur
Hi, thanks a lot for this tutorials, they helped me a lot to get some more live out of my 5.1. I still have a problem. Apps do not seem to be able to ask for privacy permissions like microphone, camera, etc... is any option on the patcher to solve that?
Not on macOS 13.3 or newer as SIP has to be disabled
hey , thanks a lot , man, this tutorial really helped, after installing macOS ventura using open core , everything looks fine and working , except that my Mac is a little bit slow , specially when using internet /RUclips ... the main reason for this update was to download Logic Pro x , because apple requires at least macOS ventura to use ... do you recommend using different macOS's , one supported and one not in my two SSDs ? if yes , how should I operate this ? thanks
You can install a different macOS onto a different SSD and just choose in the OpenCore which to boot... 👍
Question: My Apple iMac 27 inch late 2013 (3.2 GHz / 16Gb memory) still has an old SATA 1Tb harddisk. I don't want to upgrade to SSD due to the fact that it is too much hassle to do. Does anyone know if the speed of the operation system remains the same when upgrading to macOS Monterey. I currently use macOS Catalina but a lot of apps demand macOS 12 to run.
Great video! Is there a way to test of the GPU acceleration is working correctly? This is aver reverting the root patch. Thanks
Download VideoProc Converter (free), go to „settings“ and then to acceleration…
@@JessiesFlying tried that. It shows everything enabled. Watching the gpu usage while working in premiere shows little to no gpu usage. Radeon rx580 in 5,1 Mac w/ big sur.

Great! Thank you!
very helpful video! but i have problem. I install ventura to unsupported mac (mac mini) but the graphics are very slow. Is it possible to roll back with clean install of Monterey latest version? (I want to remove all settings from OpenCore Legacy too)
Yes, create USB installer of Monterey and boot from it. Then wipe harddisk and install, but data will be lost
This was very helpful. I do have a question. I now have Monterey running on my old 2013 Mac which I wiped first and I can restart it with Monterey opening but I don't see the Opencore anywhere on my computer or even applications. I've tried to add it again but it restarts without showing me the EFI as an option, only the main hard drive. Should I be concerned?
It has just a short time to show the options, just wiggle left and right buttons on the keyboard during boot to prevent it automatically going on and you will see the OpenCore menu 👍

That is actually on my bucket list for one of the next videos... ;-)
Thank you, I have tried several times following the thread to which the official page refers and I have not been able to do it, I imagine that there will be many people to whom the same thing has happened.
I'm working on it....
The Mac Mini 2014 Ventura is running smooth it just took forever to download
Thx for the info!
No problem
Thanks for the video, my question: with bootcamp / windows 7 installed, will it work or is there something additional to do for keeping the dual boot ? Mac Mini late 2014
Be careful, the OpenCore Legacy patcher always delete the whole EFI Partition and installs itself then afterwards. I have not tested it in combination with windows, check Dortania’s guide for details
Hi, I got a white circle with slash when reboot. It turns off after a few mins. Got Mac Pro Trashcan. How should I proceed?
It didn't boot from EFI Bott (OpenCore) so it shows that the macOS is not supported - make sure it boot OpenCore first, then the macOS ☝
Jessie, thank you for an amazing and incredibly informative video's. You more than anyone else has helped me over come the problems I had installing Monterey.
I like the Thomas C below had updated to Catalina, using Dos-Dude's patch, but have done a clean install since.
My question is that I have a Fusion drive on my 5,1 2011 MacPro. When I build and install OpenCore I get two drive options, the SSD drive disk0, and disk1, a Toshiba HD, the second part of my fusion drive, where should I install it? Does it make a difference?
Unfortunately you can’t keep the Fusion Drive as is. When the SSD is 128GB or larger I would recommend installing macOS onto it 👍
@@JessiesFlying Thank you for your reply, Jessie. Before your reply I had installed on the SSD side of the fusion drive and the OS had been operating normally. Is there a reason this would cause problems later on?
I'll have to save and invest in a larger SSD drive and start again.
@@kryptofever no, if it’s working keep it like that 👍😬
thank you..... 😍
Great video! but, you can upgrade the ram on the mac mini from 2010 to 2014 to 16Gb, th e 2018 till 64Gb.
That’s right 👍
Hi Jessie. Great Video. I have a MacPro 2012 - 5.1 with a Saphire graphics card and Mojave. Therefore I can not see the Apple boot selector.
If I now reinstall my original Apple graphics card I can see the boot selector and determine the boot drive, but I don't understand how I should then install Monterey, since this again requires the Saphire graphics card like Mojave. Mojave won't boot at all without the Saphire, so I can't use the software update feature either.
What can I do now to install Monterey over Mojave since I don't want to reinstall all my programs?
Kind regards
Thomas
Moin, einfach im apple boot selector EFI Boot auswählen und STRG gedruckt halten (das Logo wird zu einem Kreis) und damit als Standard-Boot-Option. Dann einfach mit der RX580 updaten, es sollte jetzt immer erst OpenCore geladen werden… 👍 Big Sur oder Monterey kann man aber auch mit der alten Grafikkarte installieren, da ist keine Abfrage drin, nur das Setup ist ohne Metal sehr langsam. Nach der Installation einfach die Grafikkarte tauschen…
My iMac is using startup disk booting from a ssd drive. What changes in the Install must I make? Can you make a video on installing iMac only?
There is no difference between Mac models how to install OpenCore
Hi, congratulations for the tutorials, very clear and well done. I have a question to ask. I have successfully installed Monterey on a Mac Pro 5.1 2010 with its original card (GT 120), and then ask how can I connect multiple monitors to the mac? I tried with a Radeon Pulse 580 but it is not compatible with Monterey. how to solve the problem? Thank you
Ugo
Radeon RX580 is compatible, only apple boot selector is not visible (I myself use it). 👍 details here: ruclips.net/video/mtN8zxGVNwQ/видео.html

Hi,
also ich stelle mir gerade einen USB Bootstick vor mit mehreren Partitionen, die das jeweilig gewünschte bzw benötigte Mac OS X bereit halten. Und zwar für supported Macs as well as for unsupported Macs. Dann einfach rein damit und die leere frisch formatierte SSD bespielen. Schön wenn alles so einfach wäre und funktionieren würde um den Mac zu gebrauchen. Leider muss ich feststellen, das die Maintainance Zeit- und Energieaufwändig ist...
Ich habe heute so einen multiplen Bootstick für supported Macs herzustellen. Leider werden die Partitionen immer wieder gelöscht... Ich habe mit DiskMaker gearbeitet und damit mein MacBook Pro 13" aus 2009 (!) mit Mojave bespielt. Läuft gut... braucht 1 Minute zum Hochfahren und läuft flüssig. Doch Wifi wird nach einiger Zeit abgeschaltet. Mit unterstütztem Mac OS X streikt Ebay oder youTube etc... mit dem patch, einer SSD und Mojave, wird es wieder ein vollwertiger Rechner! Und er ist schnell... 1 Minute hoch, 10 Sekunden runter... wie im richtigen Leben...
Mein 15" MacBookPro von 2010 läuft auch super und noch viel besser als mit High Sierra als letztem unterstützten System.
Ehrlich, was Apple da macht ist schwer kriminell und der Staat sollte hart eingreifen. Schon allein wegen den riesigen verbrannten Energien und verlorenen Zeiten. Gerade bei den heutigen Problemstrukturen und Katastrophen muss jeder umdenken.
Ich habe nun noch Install Disk Creator, AnyMacOs und OpenCorePatcher auf dem Rechner. Blick noch nicht ganz durch... Das Muss sich allerdings ändern, weil ich meinen iMac 27" aus 2013 mit Monterey oder auch mit Ventura beglücken will.
Dazu habe ich mir eine NVMe SSD und eine 2.5" SSD gekauft und eine Intel Core i7 3.5Ghz CPU. Damit müsste man also noch eine Weile am Internet teilhaben können.
Wäre ich Rio Reiser und König von Dschland, müsste Apple sehr viel vernünftiger mit den Ressourcen umgehen und auch ältere Devices unterstützen und Funktionalität gewährleisten.
Doch die dummen Säue wählen ihre Metzger selber... Hauptsache es bleibt bequem .....beim alten...
Hi Jessie - I’m running Catalina on my MacPro 2010 5,1 using Dosdude Patcher. If I want to upgrade to Monterey using OpenCore Legacy Patcher will I have to start from scratch and erase the NVMExpress drive and then install OpenCore?
the OpenCore devs recommend not to upgrade a (dosdude) patched macOS, but you can try. I would start from scratch with a new SSD and keep the old one for recovery / backup reasons...
I'm running a Mac Pro 5.1 with Mojave installed. sapphire RX580(no boot screen). I'm planning to install Monterrey, should I swap my rx580 to the original graphics card before starting the procedure with open core?
It’s easier, but it also works this way:
ruclips.net/video/p0tOmD3QEow/видео.html
Ah @ 14:21 there is the info on WIFI and Bluetooth connectivity I was hoping for.
The Hashwell is a must for Ventura but not for Monterey then. MB pro 2012 not good but MB 2013 is good.
With OpenCore Legacy patcher you can install Ventura on 2012 Mac’s (but I don’t recommend doing it on pre-Haswell)…
@@JessiesFlying Yes I see, speed will drive me nuts.
Can you have both a Mac Boot GPU & "Metal capable" PC GPU while installing open core on the cMP OR would you run into problems?
I didn’t try this yet, but I recommend switching the cards accordingly…
Hi Marcus. Hopefully you see this. I just upgraded my MacBook Pro 2016 and when I get to my login screen it’s fine but after that the scaling is tiny. The MacBook doesn’t recognise the screen and thinks it is a 42” any thoughts?
Do the post install root patch to add the missing graphic drivers...
Help!! My old apps such as Final cut pro, garage band, etc won't run on upgraded Os Ventura, even if I install newest versions, the system won't support them and they'll crash 😭😭😭😭
Can you just update the apps through App Store?
I have a 2011 27 iMac with an updated Nvidia k2100m metal compatible video card. Is there any speed improvement with Monterey or should i just stay on Big Sur?
No there is no speed improvement. It’s just useful if you need newer versions of apps that didn’t install on Big Sur any more….
I have a late 2013 MacBook Pro that’s currently running the most current (unsupported) version of Monterey, and in the system settings updates it’s showing and update for the current version of MacOS Ventura. Can I upgrade to Ventura that way? What will happen if I click update to Ventura from the unsupported version of Monterey? Or do I need to start the process all over again and upgrade to Ventura thru Open Core Legacy with a usb. Also, is there a way to install Ventura without deleting all of my files and content? Like can I just update to it? Or do I need to do a fresh install and wipe the whole hard drive?
You can just update it, but make sure to have latest OCLP downloaded and installed, then reboot and update 👍🚀
Thank you so much for this !
I’m experencing some problems upgrading from catalina to monterey in my Mac Pro 5,1.
After Booting from EFI the monterey installer starts until 13 minutes left than the maschine restart and if I choose MacOS installer the screen goes black with this symbol 🚫, if I choose monterey everething starts over again.
Am I Missing something ?
Of couse with the original graphic card.
Any Idea?
Thanks
Boot from EFI boot ☝️
Thank you so much, this works for my 2015 Macbook, I have Ventura working with almost no problems *knock on wood*. The only problem is that my toolbars and most text is WAY TOO SMALL. I put on some reading glasses and still it is tiny. I was able to make the folders on my desktop larger, but not the upper toolbar and the dock. Any way to fix this please? Or is my only option to go back to an older version of OS?
Did you install the "root patch" so that you have the correct graphic drivers?
@@JessiesFlying That fixed it! Thank you so much I feel like I have a brand new Macbook! =)
@@queenmarylady1 great! 😬
I'm tempted to try this on my 2012 retina 15" but i had really choppy bluetooth when i tried installing mojave on it years ago, and i've heard the bad bluetooth is still an issue. was that the case for you?
My 2012 MacBook Pro works fine but there is no guarantee. If you don’t need it right now you may try it out, but don’t forget the root patch (and have a backup ready)
Hi Jessie,
Great tutorial! My MacBookPro11,2 doesn't show the opencore patcher when installed, reboot and the alt key on. What do I do wrong?🤔
Thanks for your reply!
Olivier
So you can see the Apple Boot Selector, but no "EFI Boot"?
@@JessiesFlying I do see EFI Boot. I as not aware that was the selection to take. I took that selection, but I came in a old bootcamp Windows and not the opencore patcher. Can you advice me what to do next?
@@olivier1363 create a USB drive as in the video and then keep option pressed. There should be 2 EFI Boot options, take the one with the USB drive logo👍
Great tutorial. Many thanks. One question though. I did a clean installation of Monterey successfully onto my Apple HDD, but the 'upgrade' installation onto an external Samsung SSD failed. Any suggestions?
External is always complicated and dependent of the USB controller. Maybe try different USB ports…? 🤔
@@JessiesFlying Thanks. I'll give it a go.
3:45 Jessie it is possible to use my iMac 2010 27"" with Ventura with the OpenCore-Patcher 0.6.7? i have installed already and everything works fine BUT photoshop gives an Unknown GPU error: "Your graphics processor is not compatible" Metal unavailable and insufficient VRAM (0mb pf 1500 mb required) What do you recommend to do to solve this matter? Thanks a lot for your time, great channel!!!!
It's not Metal capable. the re-implemented graphic drivers can run Ventura, but all applications that need Metal support won't work. so either exchange GPU to a Metal capable one (is difficult or not possible depending on iMac version) or staying with older application versions that were still supported by High Sierra (latest macOS without Metal requirement)
@@JessiesFlying Thanks a lot for your time Jessie, It's very sad that Ventura is working fine in iMac 2010 but the only problem is with Adobe Photoshop 2023 and 2022, i haven't tried with 2021. I'm looking for a solution in adobe's forums. Thanks again for your reply.
Thank-you. my 2010 ,21.5" was easy to upgrade ,...but on wake up, display is scrambled as soon as mouse is movedt
That’s weird, did you try to do root patch twice and then reboot?
Hey I have quite a few EFI boot files how do I delete them a bit confused which one I choose after pressing option key.
Check the icons, there should be one with harddisks…
Mac 5,1 running Mojave, sapphire Radeon RX 580 8GB graphics card 48 Gb RAM. Can I use this method to go straight to Monterey or do I have to step via Catalina etc?
If you have latest firmware (should be fine when using Mojave) yes 👍 but I recommend testing it on a different drive first
Thank you for your great tutorial. May I ask is there any solution for super slow CPU after upgrading? Mine is Macbook Pro late 2011
That’s weird as my MacBook Pro 2012 had normal benchmarks… 🤔 did you install root patch already?
@@JessiesFlying yes I have installed but my cpu got 100% and everytime running animation like minimise a apps lag. I was using AMD GPU
@@ivantongfather try installing root patch twice, then reboot....
also will this be like other updates where it keeps all of the information from previous versions of the OS? or will this erase all of my software plugins and be a complete new install as if i got a new computer?
@@TwoBirdDogStudios it only erases everything if you erase the hard disk, otherwise it’s an update and your data is kept
Hello Jessie,
i just install Mac OS Sonoma 14,4,1 on my iMax 27 inch 2011 and it's running nice. However i did update my Final Cut Pro to 10,7,1 but it refuse to open ! What can i do ? uninstall and reinstall ?
Thanks for your answer.
I can imagine that it doesn’t open due to graphic driver issues… did it work with older versions of Sonoma?
Hey guy ! I try to install macos monterey on my 27 in imac 2011 but after te reboot of open core, it not propose me any upgrade... Even after your solutions any idea ? On the page of OCLP there is written "needed 8gb ram recommanded" i've only 4 is it the reason ?
Nope, even Ventura runs with 4GB RAM. Create a USB drive and do the update from there👍
