Happy birthday to my iMac 14.3🎉 up for another 10 years. Sonoma is running fine. After replacing the hdd with sata ssd and upping memory to 16Gbyte in 2018 it is even faster than when i bought it new! Thanks to guys who do this intensive oclp work for a beer or coffee!🎉🎉🎉 I play my Civ 5 and Rome Total games for a decade now, next to some office work. That machine just won't stop.
Updated oclp to the latest version on a 2012 Mac Mini, but not it hangs on boot. Any suggestions on how I can get back up and running? I'm running Ventura. Thanks.
Is it infinite spinning during login screen after entering password? I have this issue right now :( applied and followed everything in the oclp update app, it has always worked flawlessly, im on Ventura too!
@@PhilipClouds I get through the login screen fine. After that, the white progress bar stops at about 1/3 loading. The only way I was able to get my system up and running was to do a fresh install, however I'm not on the latest version of OCLP at this time. I'm worried it will happen again as I have not seen a fix or this really being addressed anywhere whether I look here in the comments of this video or on the OCLP discord server...
Hey Mr.Macintosh, this was the first time I caught one of your videos (saw it as already have OCP and looking for something else) and wanted to tell you how amazed and impressed at the clarity and relative simplicity you brought to what many may feel is all smoke and mirrors! Wow! How brilliant the OCP developers are to come up with such a slick, foolproof system. Your explanation of it made me appreciate what I probably would not have noticed. Subscribed on the basis that, if your other contents is even half as good it’s worth watching. Thank you man 🙌
tried to update to 14.2 went slow but at restart I got 3 beeps. so just killed 2 ram slots of my 2013 iMac 27". don't know the reason but now I only have 16gb instead of 32! not nice. tried everything thinking it was just 1 ram stick or something but both slots are fried. ( upper two slots )
Great video, as always. The thorough explanation is greatly appreciated. My Mac Mini is on the latest Ventura (before yesterday’s update) and OCLP 1.2.1, so I followed the advice and updated to 1.3.0 before doing the Ventura update. Something has gone wrong though as after the OCLP install to disk, and subsequent root patching, the restart has now failed with the white progress bar stuck at about a third of the way across.
Hi, could you ask Dortania if it can alert that there is a new OCLP even if the app is not open? It can alert it perhaps by checking its servers everyday (it can be set, the time to check even in the OCLP setting). Thank you. God bless.
I installed OCLP 1.3.0 and then installed Sonoma 14.2 on my mid-2011 iMac. The installation seemed to be proceeding well, then it took me to a screen that showed a mouse, but without Bluetooth support. I used a USB mouse to continue, and then was taken to the Restore options. I closed that without making a selection, rebooted, and held down Command-Option-P-R on startup to reset NVRAM. Upon rebooting Bluetooth was restored and the installation proceeded to a successful conclusion.
Thanks to Mr. Macintosh for this great video and to all the developers at Dortania for their fantastic efforts and achievements.

How to revert the boot legacy patcher update back because I was waiting for the video and since it comes a little late in the evening yesterday i did as usual going first on updating my legacy patcher before updating the new version of macos but my mac mini got stuck there in the apple logo with half bar since yesterday.How can I solve it please☹️🙏🏾
Thank you Mr Macintosh and the OCLP dev team. Another great video, as always. Successfully updated to OCLP 1.3.0 and Sonoma 14.2 on my MBP 8,1 2011 8Gb RAM and on my iMac 11,1 2009 16Gb RAM. No issue at all during install. Didn't notice any major change in speed, latency or crashes compared to 14.1.2. Everything working like a charm on both machines.
No issues installing on my setup. On a 2014 Mac Mini running Sonoma 14.1.2 and OCLP 1.2.1, I had zero issues upgrading OCLP to 1.3.0, updating OpenCore, applying the root patches and rebooting. A day later, I upgraded to Sonoma 14.2, rebooted, reapplied the root patches, and rebooted, again without issue.
So here's a important note. On my Mac Pro 2010 5,1 I did the initial updating through system settings and software update. It got the new KDK and everything downloaded and ready to go with the upgrade to 14.2. But once installing during that method on this Mac Pro, it stalled and just did not go through properly where I had to go into my Ventura SSD and create a USB installer for the 14.2 update. Once that was created and a bootable USB was made the process went through no problems with the 14.2 update. All patches were on. Them once in Sonoma 14.2, Bluetooth and Air drop did not work. So ad to reapply the root patches again and after reboot Bluetooth and Air drop were working once again. My suggestion is just to make a USB installer rather than doing the update via settings.
I followed the instructions with my 5.1 Mac and also had problems with the update after it completed. The screen would go to black every few second or so then turn back on. I can try again following your information and create a 14.2 bootable USB installer. Thanks for the advice.
Mr. Macintosh, like your videos, IMHO, you group too many fixes in one video, it would be nice if you broke a couple out as independent videos (such as a simple install/upgrade), would cause less confusion. As for myself, I'm sticking with OCLP 1.2.1 and Sonoma 14.0. It works just fine and since it is installed on a secondary iMac 2015 I see no need to risk upsetting the current work flow.

Hey! I upgraded to Sonoma via OpenCore Legacy Patcher and now trying to downgrade back to Ventura. Is there a video about that, because I’m facing some problems with that
I seem to be stuck on 1.1.0, MBP Mid 2012, and the OS is now 14.2. It wants to update to 1.3 and says it is successful every time I do it, but it is still at 1.1.0. Any help appreciated.
This is what I'm running iMac 12,2 - 32GB of RAM - SSD 1Tb - Nvidia Quadro K4000M - Sonoma 14.2.1 - i7 3.4GHZ Quad Core - OCLP 1.3.0. And I'm experiencing video glitches when streaming video from a friend on Discord, this weird purple filter on photo booth over the recording image as well in Zoom. Though RUclips through Google Chrome seems fine. Anyone experience this?.
Sir need your information, I did successfully patch my 2010 MBP (upgrade SSD and 16GB) to Ventura,, I tried to install steam, the steam does not work fully normal but I can install FM24 through it,, somehow I can running FM24, it's stuck at black screen and not loading any further....
Hi, I need help. I run my wifes mid 2012 MBP 13inch on OCLP and got a promp to update to 1.3.0. I did it and followed all the steps like on you video (only 1.3.0 update not Mac OS) (still on first Sonoma public version (not beta)) and now the machine is stuck on boot. Apple logo and progress bar stuck at 1/5... What to do now? I tried recovery, safe mode, it's as if nothing works... Please help if possible. Thank you in advance.
I have an iMac 12,1 (21" 2011) and after successfully installed Sonoma 14.2.1, bluetooth and ethernet aren't working. I've run the Post-install Root Patch, but no-go. Any clue, please, on how to solve it? Thank you!
These videos are really great. I couldn't have made my Macs run so well. I did the update of OpenCore before updating. After, both OPLP and Sonaoma, Safrai was eating up all my CPU cycles. I deleted history ( hate doing that now I have to find all my passwords). Turns out I had my only tab group with Instagram and Facebook causing this. I deleted the tab group, and it returned to normal. Activity monitor was showing when a Safari window was open the former tab group was cosnuming all CPU cycles. After deleting this, the separate URLs run as expected. I haven't yet tried a new tab group.
Hi there, sorry if this is not the correct place, just installed Sonoma 14.3 on a Macbook Pro 17" 2010 6,1.. all good except Keynote 13.2, numbers and pages are ok... when you create a presentation all ok, when you run it, it just crashes with a non-spinning beachball... have also tried on an iMac 24" early 2008 running Ventura 13.6.1 - exactly the same issue... Please let me know where to post this if it needs to be posted elsewhere..... Many Thanks....
Downloaded OCLP 1.3.0 onto my 2007 iMac but it will not run. Tried different unzip utilities thinking it didn’t unpack properly but it just crashes on startup attempt.
Mr. Macintosh, I'm stuck on bootloader 0.6.5 and I can't seem to get an update to stick. Running big sur with open core on my mac mini 6,2 2012. I've reset NVRAM and then reinstalled with an installer created with 1.4.3 and still no success. Hoping you might be able to help? Thanks in advance for any advice.
One of the things I've learned about upgrading MacOS on an iMac 2013 and white Macbook 2009 is that programs like Numbers and Pages need to be installed on Ventura I had an old HDD for the Macbook which still had an old version of Numbers, and when I tried to upgrade Numbers I got the message from the App Store that I needed MacOS 13 (Ventura) before I could do the upgrade. The furthest MacOS I could go was High Sierra which is where I am now. Lots of gotcha's to this process.
This version rendered it impossible to ever boot above Catalina on my 5,1 Mac Pro. All the work arounds I’ve tried don’t work yet it was perfectly fine dual booting Catalina and 14.1 under the previous OCLP. I’m convinced it’s done something to the NVRAM.
Hello, I updated OCL to 1.3.0 and now my imac 14.3 does not have audio, do you know how to solve it? I have not found information about it, greetings from Toluca México
Are these issues normal with previous macOS releases before 14, or are they occurring more frequently this year? Feels like Apple is intentionally trying to cause as many problems as possible.
I created the USB with Sonoma, restarted the mac with option key and all I get is a black screen so I cannot select boot options. Any ideas? Running CMP 2012 with RX580.
Good day - I am running Ventura on a mid-2012 MBP and updated the OCLP yesterday. After, I clicked to update patches on my Mac and rebooted the system. I see the Apple logo and then the Ventura logo-in screen. After putting in my pw the system freezes on the load. Any recommendations?
I am new to this and I plan to upgrade my Air 2011 to OCLP Monterey. Are there any new changes or post-install I have to do in the current OCLP 1.3.0? Also, Do I need to bother with the KDK issue? I do not know what it is or what system it affects. Thank you
When I get to installing from the boot usb installer I created I get a message saying “this installer is damaged”. I reformatted and created it repeatedly, it says verifying and says it’s been created every time but when it gets to installing Sonoma it says the installer “is damaged”. I used opencore 1.3.0 2014 MacBook Pro A-1278
Thanks for the great video! Question - do you have a video that covers how to make bootable backups of OCLP macOS installs on unsupported macs using something like SuperDuper or CCC? Is there some trick to get this to work? Is it even possible do you know?
Hiiii, can you help me with my problem in 2016 late macbook pro?? I installed Sonoma and the touchbar didn't work and also I can't login to apple ID helpp meeee😢😢😢
Hey Mr. Macintosh, did you test if the firewire connection is working after this upgrade was installed on a Macbook Pro Mid 2012? I am using an audio interface based on firewire and I don't want to miss that.
Ouch. So if we didn’t watch this video until after trying to go to 1.3 without doing the Sonoma update thick and now at 1/3 white loading bar any fix? I have access to a hard drive on my Mac if that helps
Think I followed everything in order for 2013 Mac Pro and it all installs OK but at the login screen can only type 2 chars of the password before it restarts the login screen. A fresh install for Sonoma 14.2 worked fine. Anyone met this so I know what to do next time? Thanks
I really wish I knew what the hell a KDK was, and what it does, and what that means to me. I have no idea whether anything after the phrase “KDK” applies to me. Which means that I will probably have to find another video to explain to me all the tech-speak that tech people use to make everyone else feel stupid.
I do the update but my IMac does want to reboot!! It stay on the apple reboot page. I can’t lost everething is on, do you have a solution to save my life 😢
Warning OCLP 1.3.0 (only OCLP update) made my macOS Ventura crash (on MBP retina 15 mid-2012) when trying to login, infinite spinning. And on top of that macOS recovery is bust. So i did a fresh install, first to Catalina, then to Sonoma, now works great🎉 always have your important stuff backed up people!
Having just spent 3 days scrambling to recover from this "update", I will suggest anyone considering performing this, back up your data and prepare for the worst. I have no idea what happened, but upon rebooting subsequent to updating OCLP from 1.2 to 1.3, my 2012 MacBook Pro Ventura 13.6.1 hung 1/3 of the way through the boot process and refused all methods suggested to proceed. Tried all command line tricks and KDK insertion. OS recovery failed with "OS major version unrecognized" error. Attempting updating OS to 13.6.2 failed also, "The volume cannot be downgraded" error. Swapped SSD, clean install 13.6.2 failed Migration Assistant refused to allow migration to an older OS. But it wasn't. It was only through swapping SSDs and clean installing Sonoma 14.2 that boot was restored and Migration assistant allowed migration from prior disk. Lesson learned for me - again. NEVER trust ANY update/upgrade, seemingly trivial or not, OS or OCLP.
12:29 After listening to you saying no problem with 2012 mac mini, I tried it on mine. Installing OCLP 1.3.0 was fine. Then I tried updating Sonoma from 14.0 to 14.2 and eventually got a black screen. From Disk Utility the Startup SSD disappeared. What left was the Macintosh HD. I need to take out the SSD from the MacMini Server 6,2 and use another Mac to First Aid the partition and Erase it, put it back and restore from Time Machine backup. I found something strange! TM used to back up both internal drive. But now obviously OCLP EFI booted up drive did not have TM backup. Only the non-Oclp drive in the TM backup. It could be a big issue if my observation is confirmed.
I need help. I have installed 14.2 with my 27” iMac 2017. Installation worked perfectly and i can use it. My problem is when it goes to sleep, I cant wake it up. Its like the system freezes and I cant do anything. I have to do a hard reboot to restart my iMac. This happens frequently so i have to do a hard reboot every time. Please help how can I fix this? I have installed the kdk prior to upgrading from ventura. I also have OPLC 1.3.0 and have the root patches installed. Thank you.
Hi Mr Macintosh, I'm running a macbook pro 13" 11,1 . I had ventura installed with Opencore, I updated opencore to 1.3.0 and it said it was successful. it restarted, i typed my password to login, then it gets stuck around 50% startup bar and gets stuck. any solutions?
Thank you for great tutorial. My PRO 5.1 works fine with Monterey installed with one "problem". OCLP is updated on version 1.3.0. When turned on, after few minutes there is one OCLP POPup with warning that is version 1.3.0 installed, but boot version is 0.6.8. Did I make something wrong? How can I fix this? Second question is that Monterey is giving me upgrade on 12.7.2 version. Can I make this without OCLP or not?
Hey Mr. Macintosh, I was downloading the KDK and my internet stopped. Now it will not give the prompt when I click on install for Sonoma 14.2. How do I get the KDK 14.2 build now?
i had the 1.3.0 update fail so i have sense installed another install to try and get my system back up and running off my primary install --- its a 2017 15” mbp with AMD -- Is there a way to go in and manually install whats needed to the primary volume to sucessfully boot?
Hi @Mr.Macintosh, i updated macmini 6,1 to sonoma 14.2 with OCLP 1.3.0 , when i lock and unlock my mac is restarting and also on sleep wake, can you suggest any fix for this issue.
Just updated OCLP to 1.3.0 on my 2012 10.1 MBP retina. It is running Ventura 13.6.1 System Settings inform me there is an Update available, yet when I go to General tab Software update it tells me I have Ventura 13.6.1 22G313 and system is up to date. Does anyone have an explanation?
I update from 14.0 to 14.2 with open core legacy patcher 1.30 I am getting an error when logging in the screen goes blank for a few seconds then the wall paper back the keyboard does not function the same. am using a Mac air 2015. 14.0 was working fine
which OS upgrade would you suggest for my macbook pro 9.2 (Mid 2012) non retina but with 16gb RAM and 256GB Samsung SSD and i7 processor, Monterey - Ventura - Sonoma, Usage is limited to web browsing only mostly as it is my secondary laptop, I am primary a window PC user....Thanks in advance
I have a 2012 Mac Pro and installed Mac OS 14 using Open Core 1.0 on a separate internal HD. It worked fine. I recently wanted to update so I downloaded the latest Sonoma updater and Open Core Legacy Patcher 1.3. I started over and built the patcher to a reformatted USB installer drive and everything was normal. When I attempt a reboot to the EFI boot loader on my USB stick, it will not show any boot options, just a black screen. Any ideas why I can't get the boot loader to mount?
hello, I have a problem during the installation I have a black screen with the Apple logo, a loading bar but which remains stuck at "one more minute" and it does not move it remains stuck there you have any idea i have a macbook pro mid 2009 can you help me please ?
This is not true for iMac Late 2013. Do not update to Opencore 1.3.0. I got stuck on boot screen and had to reinstall using my thumb drive and restore backup
Hey Mr. Macintosh, I have a macbook pro 14.2 2017 that is running V1.0.1 OCLP and i try to update to version 1.3.0 but whenever the restart happens it comes up saying im back on V1.0.1 and need to update to 1.3.0 again. Has anyone else had this or now how to resolve?
Thx again for the detailed upgrade video. I've been trying to follow the steps, but unfortunetaly it didn't work for me.. I've this MacPro5,1, upgraded with NVMe drives and I can't to seem it get it to boot from the NVMe since I upgraded from OLCP 0.6.8 to 1.0.0 Every update I hope it get fixed, but without success so far. I looks like I'm missing the drivers at boot time, so Iguess it's a matter of getting them included in the EFI build, but I couldn't figure out how yet. If you know of some handy resource online I could check out to get this resolved, that would be awesome. For now, I keep booting from my external USB install disk, which isn't great, but at least it works :)
Yesterday (Dec 12, 2024), I followed your video for installing Sonoma 14.2 on my late 2013 i5 MBP. I don't understand this video. Was my install no good? Aside from not playing RUclips TV in Safari, all seems fine. What is this video for? Where do I get the update? How do I begin the update? There's lots of jargon here that is over my head.
for some reason my 2012 mbp hung up on the reboot in the apple loading screen with zero activity from the hdd.....yes i have the 1.3 update. so rebooted into safe mode and there it said 14.2 so i ran the root patcher then rebooted again and now it works fine.
hello mr.mcintosh i hope this comment find you well. why is oclp do not detect or show up a pop up window when im updating my macbook via system settings? im using macbook pro 13" early 2015.
If you want to update the OS, do this through OCLP "Create Mac OS Installer" button. Download the OS version you are after, then use OCLP to flash it to USB stick. Back up your data 3 different locations before attempting update. System Settings is unaware of OCLP.

Make that 3, has anyone tried to go back using Time Machine?
I learned the hard way too.
Always prep a bootable usb with oclp and have time machine updated. Or, wait for others to confirm it's working...
Guess I’ll be sticking to 14.1.1 and oclp 1.0.1. This happened to me when trying to go to 1.2.0 without even updating macOS

This is what I'm running iMac 12,2 - 32GB of RAM - SSD 1Tb - Nvidia Quadro K4000M - Sonoma 14.2.1 - i7 3.4GHZ Quad Core - OCLP 1.3.0. And I'm experiencing video glitches when streaming video from a friend on Discord, this weird purple filter on photo booth over the recording image as well in Zoom. Though RUclips through Google Chrome seems fine. Anyone experience this?.
Chrome takes forever to open. How can I fix this? Running on 5k iMac 2017, 40GB RAM.
Sir need your information, I did successfully patch my 2010 MBP (upgrade SSD and 16GB) to Ventura,, I tried to install steam, the steam does not work fully normal but I can install FM24 through it,, somehow I can running FM24, it's stuck at black screen and not loading any further....
Hi, I need help. I run my wifes mid 2012 MBP 13inch on OCLP and got a promp to update to 1.3.0. I did it and followed all the steps like on you video (only 1.3.0 update not Mac OS) (still on first Sonoma public version (not beta)) and now the machine is stuck on boot. Apple logo and progress bar stuck at 1/5... What to do now? I tried recovery, safe mode, it's as if nothing works...
Please help if possible.
Thank you in advance.
I have an iMac 12,1 (21" 2011) and after successfully installed Sonoma 14.2.1, bluetooth and ethernet aren't working. I've run the Post-install Root Patch, but no-go. Any clue, please, on how to solve it? Thank you!
These videos are really great. I couldn't have made my Macs run so well. I did the update of OpenCore before updating. After, both OPLP and Sonaoma, Safrai was eating up all my CPU cycles. I deleted history ( hate doing that now I have to find all my passwords). Turns out I had my only tab group with Instagram and Facebook causing this. I deleted the tab group, and it returned to normal. Activity monitor was showing when a Safari window was open the former tab group was cosnuming all CPU cycles. After deleting this, the separate URLs run as expected. I haven't yet tried a new tab group.
Hi there, sorry if this is not the correct place, just installed Sonoma 14.3 on a Macbook Pro 17" 2010 6,1.. all good except Keynote 13.2, numbers and pages are ok... when you create a presentation all ok, when you run it, it just crashes with a non-spinning beachball... have also tried on an iMac 24" early 2008 running Ventura 13.6.1 - exactly the same issue... Please let me know where to post this if it needs to be posted elsewhere..... Many Thanks....
iMac 27´ end 2015 as well as MBP 15´ mid 2015 are running flawlessly. Thanks for the video.
Have the same MBP. Keynote keeps crushing. Is it working on yours?
Although I don’t use keynote, it works fine.
Downloaded OCLP 1.3.0 onto my 2007 iMac but it will not run. Tried different unzip utilities thinking it didn’t unpack properly but it just crashes on startup attempt.
Mr. Macintosh, I'm stuck on bootloader 0.6.5 and I can't seem to get an update to stick. Running big sur with open core on my mac mini 6,2 2012. I've reset NVRAM and then reinstalled with an installer created with 1.4.3 and still no success. Hoping you might be able to help? Thanks in advance for any advice.
One of the things I've learned about upgrading MacOS on an iMac 2013 and white Macbook 2009 is that programs like Numbers and Pages need to be installed on Ventura I had an old HDD for the Macbook which still had an old version of Numbers, and when I tried to upgrade Numbers I got the message from the App Store that I needed MacOS 13 (Ventura) before I could do the upgrade. The furthest MacOS I could go was High Sierra which is where I am now. Lots of gotcha's to this process.
This version rendered it impossible to ever boot above Catalina on my 5,1 Mac Pro. All the work arounds I’ve tried don’t work yet it was perfectly fine dual booting Catalina and 14.1 under the previous OCLP. I’m convinced it’s done something to the NVRAM.
Hello, I updated OCL to 1.3.0 and now my imac 14.3 does not have audio, do you know how to solve it? I have not found information about it, greetings from Toluca México
Are these issues normal with previous macOS releases before 14, or are they occurring more frequently this year? Feels like Apple is intentionally trying to cause as many problems as possible.
I created the USB with Sonoma, restarted the mac with option key and all I get is a black screen so I cannot select boot options. Any ideas? Running CMP 2012 with RX580.
Good day - I am running Ventura on a mid-2012 MBP and updated the OCLP yesterday. After, I clicked to update patches on my Mac and rebooted the system. I see the Apple logo and then the Ventura logo-in screen. After putting in my pw the system freezes on the load. Any recommendations?
I am new to this and I plan to upgrade my Air 2011 to OCLP Monterey. Are there any new changes or post-install I have to do in the current OCLP 1.3.0? Also, Do I need to bother with the KDK issue? I do not know what it is or what system it affects. Thank you
When I get to installing from the boot usb installer I created I get a message saying “this installer is damaged”. I reformatted and created it repeatedly, it says verifying and says it’s been created every time but when it gets to installing Sonoma it says the installer “is damaged”. I used opencore 1.3.0 2014 MacBook Pro A-1278
After updating Ventura, DMG and Zip files do not work. File damaged. Some help?
I've already run commands in the terminal and the problem continues
Thanks for the great video! Question - do you have a video that covers how to make bootable backups of OCLP macOS installs on unsupported macs using something like SuperDuper or CCC? Is there some trick to get this to work? Is it even possible do you know?
HELP ME. My Macbook Pro 11.3, Monterey doesnot sleep when i close the lid. Even version 0.4 to 1.3.0. Plz HELP ME
Hiiii, can you help me with my problem in 2016 late macbook pro?? I installed Sonoma and the touchbar didn't work and also I can't login to apple ID helpp meeee😢😢😢
Updated my MBP 17 8,3 and just wondering if there’s a fix for Bluetooth not working.
On MacBook Air A1466 I'm stuck on the log in page , charging bar ... Any idea on how I can repair ? thx !
Hi, Sonoma working fine on an old 2011 mac. Needed to clear the NVRAM to restore Bt connectivity.
Hey Mr. Macintosh, did you test if the firewire connection is working after this upgrade was installed on a Macbook Pro Mid 2012? I am using an audio interface based on firewire and I don't want to miss that.
anyone know how to get Monterey onto a 2010 MBP 7,1 that has a blank formated apfs guid SSD inside it?
Ouch. So if we didn’t watch this video until after trying to go to 1.3 without doing the Sonoma update thick and now at 1/3 white loading bar any fix? I have access to a hard drive on my Mac if that helps
I updated Open Core to 1.3.0. now i cant login to my username. I give the password and it only loads. Nothing else happens. Can anyone help me?
The system does not start when I remove the USB, what can I do about this?
Think I followed everything in order for 2013 Mac Pro and it all installs OK but at the login screen can only type 2 chars of the password before it restarts the login screen. A fresh install for Sonoma 14.2 worked fine. Anyone met this so I know what to do next time? Thanks
I had a similar problem with my 5,1 Mac Pro. Another user above suggests a clean install with a bootable USB installer.
My garageband stoped working? It says it cannot be used due to some graphics issues. How do you think I could solve this? thanks
I really wish I knew what the hell a KDK was, and what it does, and what that means to me. I have no idea whether anything after the phrase “KDK” applies to me. Which means that I will probably have to find another video to explain to me all the tech-speak that tech people use to make everyone else feel stupid.
Macbook pro 15 inch mid 2014(non nvidia gpu) keyboard 1-9 not working
I can not find a way to download the open core legacy patcher.... under assets where its suppose to be found... the circle is just spinning.....
I do the update but my IMac does want to reboot!! It stay on the apple reboot page. I can’t lost everething is on, do you have a solution to save my life 😢
Is there a way to make File Vault 2 work w/ OCLP? It seems a common issue from what I've seen
I was wondering why i keep getting an error when trying to open Garage band. (unable to initialize Graphics)
Is it safe to install this version to my 2011 iMac? Or should I install Ventura instead?
My mac pro 2012 is stuck on apple logo for hours after sanoma upgrade from ventura
Warning OCLP 1.3.0 (only OCLP update) made my macOS Ventura crash (on MBP retina 15 mid-2012) when trying to login, infinite spinning. And on top of that macOS recovery is bust. So i did a fresh install, first to Catalina, then to Sonoma, now works great🎉 always have your important stuff backed up people!
Do you know if the OCLP team has added support for target display mode? It worked in Ventura but not in Sonoma.
Thank you for the very informative video.
My computer is Fucked . I shouldn’t have tried to update it
MacBookPro11,2 running macOS Ventura 13.6.1 (HDD available 80GB) running OCLP 1.2.1. Try to build macOS Ventura 13.3.6 installer & OCLP indicating insufficient space. Is there anyone encounter such issue ? Thanks
Having just spent 3 days scrambling to recover from this "update", I will suggest anyone considering performing this, back up your data and prepare for the worst. I have no idea what happened, but upon rebooting subsequent to updating OCLP from 1.2 to 1.3, my 2012 MacBook Pro Ventura 13.6.1 hung 1/3 of the way through the boot process and refused all methods suggested to proceed. Tried all command line tricks and KDK insertion. OS recovery failed with "OS major version unrecognized" error. Attempting updating OS to 13.6.2 failed also, "The volume cannot be downgraded" error. Swapped SSD, clean install 13.6.2 failed Migration Assistant refused to allow migration to an older OS. But it wasn't. It was only through swapping SSDs and clean installing Sonoma 14.2 that boot was restored and Migration assistant allowed migration from prior disk.
Lesson learned for me - again. NEVER trust ANY update/upgrade, seemingly trivial or not, OS or OCLP.
12:29 After listening to you saying no problem with 2012 mac mini, I tried it on mine. Installing OCLP 1.3.0 was fine. Then I tried updating Sonoma from 14.0 to 14.2 and eventually got a black screen. From Disk Utility the Startup SSD disappeared. What left was the Macintosh HD. I need to take out the SSD from the MacMini Server 6,2 and use another Mac to First Aid the partition and Erase it, put it back and restore from Time Machine backup. I found something strange! TM used to back up both internal drive. But now obviously OCLP EFI booted up drive did not have TM backup. Only the non-Oclp drive in the TM backup. It could be a big issue if my observation is confirmed.

None of this is working for me. It just allows me to download it I don’t get any building options so I cancelled it I want to do a route patch
I need help. I have installed 14.2 with my 27” iMac 2017. Installation worked perfectly and i can use it. My problem is when it goes to sleep, I cant wake it up. Its like the system freezes and I cant do anything. I have to do a hard reboot to restart my iMac. This happens frequently so i have to do a hard reboot every time. Please help how can I fix this? I have installed the kdk prior to upgrading from ventura. I also have OPLC 1.3.0 and have the root patches installed. Thank you.
I have the Macbook Air 13” Early 2014. I already installed OCLP 1.3.0 to apple ssd and rebooted. How do I get the Airplay unlocked? Thank you!
Hi Mr Macintosh,
I'm running a macbook pro 13" 11,1 . I had ventura installed with Opencore, I updated opencore to 1.3.0 and it said it was successful. it restarted, i typed my password to login, then it gets stuck around 50% startup bar and gets stuck. any solutions?
Thank you for great tutorial. My PRO 5.1 works fine with Monterey installed with one "problem". OCLP is updated on version 1.3.0. When turned on, after few minutes there is one OCLP POPup with warning that is version 1.3.0 installed, but boot version is 0.6.8. Did I make something wrong? How can I fix this?
Second question is that Monterey is giving me upgrade on 12.7.2 version. Can I make this without OCLP or not?
Hey Mr. Macintosh, I was downloading the KDK and my internet stopped. Now it will not give the prompt when I click on install for Sonoma 14.2. How do I get the KDK 14.2 build now?
Hi, can I update my MacBook pro 2012 with macOS 14.0 to macOS 14.2 from: setting > general > software update?
i had the 1.3.0 update fail so i have sense installed another install to try and get my system back up and running off my primary install --- its a 2017 15” mbp with AMD -- Is there a way to go in and manually install whats needed to the primary volume to sucessfully boot?

I have a 2012 Mac Pro and installed Mac OS 14 using Open Core 1.0 on a separate internal HD. It worked fine. I recently wanted to update so I downloaded the latest Sonoma updater and Open Core Legacy Patcher 1.3. I started over and built the patcher to a reformatted USB installer drive and everything was normal. When I attempt a reboot to the EFI boot loader on my USB stick, it will not show any boot options, just a black screen. Any ideas why I can't get the boot loader to mount?
I have 2017 macbook pro touchBar 15 inch and when try to make a instaler iit failed it says corrupted installer and i cant install macos Sonoma...😩
hello, I have a problem during the installation I have a black screen with the Apple logo, a loading bar but which remains stuck at "one more minute" and it does not move it remains stuck there you have any idea i have a macbook pro mid 2009 can you help me please ?
This is not true for iMac Late 2013. Do not update to Opencore 1.3.0. I got stuck on boot screen and had to reinstall using my thumb drive and restore backup
Hey Mr. Macintosh, when I load 1.3 it isn't allowing me to choose a new build. I fixed it before but I can't remember what to do.
Hey Mr. Macintosh, I have a macbook pro 14.2 2017 that is running V1.0.1 OCLP and i try to update to version 1.3.0 but whenever the restart happens it comes up saying im back on V1.0.1 and need to update to 1.3.0 again. Has anyone else had this or now how to resolve?
hi , I have a MacBook pro 2017 too, but Touch ID doesn't work.
Thx again for the detailed upgrade video. I've been trying to follow the steps, but unfortunetaly it didn't work for me.. I've this MacPro5,1, upgraded with NVMe drives and I can't to seem it get it to boot from the NVMe since I upgraded from OLCP 0.6.8 to 1.0.0 Every update I hope it get fixed, but without success so far. I looks like I'm missing the drivers at boot time, so Iguess it's a matter of getting them included in the EFI build, but I couldn't figure out how yet. If you know of some handy resource online I could check out to get this resolved, that would be awesome. For now, I keep booting from my external USB install disk, which isn't great, but at least it works :)
Hi my iMac is 2013 I installed 1.30.0 but while the restart of the root patches it is not booting ... plzz reply fast
Yesterday (Dec 12, 2024), I followed your video for installing Sonoma 14.2 on my late 2013 i5 MBP.
I don't understand this video. Was my install no good? Aside from not playing RUclips TV in Safari, all seems fine.
What is this video for? Where do I get the update? How do I begin the update? There's lots of jargon here that is over my head.
Thanks once again Mr. Macintosh. I am successfully running 14.2 on my Late 2013 27 in iMac. Your work is very much appreciated!
as soon as i update from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0 version, my mac_mini(late 2012), and is not unable to boot any more, did i miss something?
for some reason my 2012 mbp hung up on the reboot in the apple loading screen with zero activity from the hdd.....yes i have the 1.3 update. so rebooted into safe mode and there it said 14.2 so i ran the root patcher then rebooted again and now it works fine.
Should this be done for the 2015 dual graphics MacBook Pro 15 ?
I just installed the OCL 1.3 on macbook pro 2016 but when I restart it, it freezes on login screen. What do I do now? Help please
hello mr.mcintosh i hope this comment find you well. why is oclp do not detect or show up a pop up window when im updating my macbook via system settings? im using macbook pro 13" early 2015.
If you want to update the OS, do this through OCLP "Create Mac OS Installer" button. Download the OS version you are after, then use OCLP to flash it to USB stick.
Back up your data 3 different locations before attempting update.
System Settings is unaware of OCLP.
