One nice thing about the new version is its version number is now in sync with MacOS 14.5. Whether it stays in sync with future MacOS updates remains to be seen.
@@JessiesFlying I did see notification of a new release coming about two weeks ago. Another nice thing I noticed is what you mentioned about checks being run - the root patcher didn’t update my current 13.6.7 OS due to a system version mismatch it detected. No need for 14.5 root patches when you’re running 13.6.7. Very good!
Thanks for your update. Very well explained.Although there is no real need I updated on my IMac 27’ end 2015 flawlessly but on my MBP mid 2015 I always get after restarting my MacBook the error message „ you switched off your computer because of a problem“ restart doesn’t erase this error message. Even not with new installation of patches. The only thing I did was to disable the boot picker option. I may disappear after a while… Grüsse aus Hamburg Problem solved: Konsole , Diagnoseberichte, sleep wake failure. Message 😅deleted, restart.
Sticker, Wave, Choco waves in greeting [12:36] I have a MacBook Pro mid 2014 with open-core legacy 1.5.0 installed on it, It’s safe to update to Sonoma without facing booting difficulties
Hello Jessie I have been sitting on the back burner about updating my unsupported iMac 27” and today there is a new Sonoma 14.6 beta update available. Can you please advise me what should I do? Update or ignore this! Thank you😊
Funny thing is, two mac mini 2014s with 8Gb RAM and SSD. One has been good with all the OpenCore Patcher versions and is on 14.3.1 and its perfect. Another one just crashed every 2 weeks. It now has patcher 1.5.0, i will see how it goes
Can I install Sonoma Opencore onto top of my existing Monterey? Or must I use a usb stick? 2017 iMac 27" 5K, 4.2 GHz Intel i7 Kaby Lake, 24 GB RAM, 1TB internal SSPOLARIS 4x NVMe SSD as boot volume, 4TB internal Crucial SATA SSD, Radeon Pro 580 with 8 GB vram, MacOS Monterey 12.x latest
I think 1.4.5 was failing to work on some mid year older 2010 and 2011 Macs . I can't be sure about this because I suspect my ssd was also problematic before I swapped it . what I did notice however was the new 1.5.0 did act a little different while creating the usb installer. In any event , it worked successfully in creating one for my 2011 pro .
The guys are doing an exceptional job with Open Core. It’s maturing very very well. Quick question : on Mac Pro 5.1’s I cannot update to the latest version of some software like Premiere Pro and After Effects because of the the lack of AVX2 support in these macs. Is there any possible way to overcome this limitation?
i test it on my 2010 Macbook 6.2, it works. to day I saw that the Standby Modus/Ruhstand not works, had someone a Idee? And bevor I used Catalina patch, an now I think the Colors are not so good but bevor.
Hi! I used the 1.50 patcher on my 2012 macbook pro and was able to install OS Sonoma. It was running great for over 2 months. Then unexpectedly my mac got updated and now it is messed up. I'm getting an ugly white back screen and graphics are messed up. How can i fix this? I do not want to repeat the process again because i now have important apps and data on my macbook which i cannot lose.
@@JessiesFlying I tried this and it did not resolve the issue. one person on discord said remove the root patches then reboot and reinstall them. i will try this. How do i set my macbook so it doesn't do any auto updates or auto restarts?
If this is my very first time using OCLP, even if I'm just wanting to install Monterrey, I should use the latest version of OCLP, correct? No matter what Mac I'm using (supported Macs)?
Hello I followed your video to put mac os monterey on my imac 27 inch mid 2011 (12.2), it installs as it should, but I no longer have an internet connection yet I am plugged in with the cable and I don't I no longer have wifi and I can't get them back on, do you have a solution, thank you kindly
As mentioned I'm a voiceover user and due to open cord not having sound drivers is currently stopping me from actually updating my Mac unofficially though anyone, definitely would take advice here. Unfortunately sound is necessary, even if I had braille support from voice over that would work.
No I haven't actually put it there whatsoever. And I actually wasn't sure where to ask this as far as discord where would you suggest on discord I put this question mark sound ignorant the sound drivers seriously would go a long way to help someone who is visually impaired Hymie and others but aren't able to follow the instructions shown here because the bootloader doesn't support voice over.
Map of pro mid 2014 the sound works when Big surders loaded, the sound works if I'm using the default bootloader that comes preloaded with the Mac. But open core, unfortunately it isn't. So can't use voice over even if I press command at 5 to launcher voice over.

Open core legacy patcher beautifully installed Catalina but unfortunately I cannot download any other installer now - not via open core legacy patcher, not via settings updates, not from the internet. :( I always getting stuck and getting error.

Hello, unfortunately after updating the last open core legacy patcher 1.5.0 my mac pro 5.1 cheesgrader with monterey freezes after a while of working and I have to force shut it down . Do you maybe have any idea why this is happening and probably how to fix this problem?
I installed the previous OCLP but the problem remains the same.

Fixed! Installed OCLP 1.5 on my botched Sonoma root patches (log in fail) w previous version of OCLP. First followed your recovery tutorial then installed OCLP 1.5 and bam! My mid 2011 iMac works perfectly! Only question; Should I update Sonoma to the new version??? (nervous). Thanks, you are great!
Thanks for your informative video. Today I updated OpenCore Legacy Patcher from 1.4 to 1.5.0, unfortunately this time the boot got stuck on the logo. I'm on Mac Pro 5.1 and OS Sonoma lastversion. I probably shouldn't have done the update, but I did it other times without problems, gaining confidence, however I learned that sometimes it's not worth doing updates. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Good video. a question. I would like to upgrade my 21 inch iMac late 2013 (I currently have bigsur installed via patcherSur) and clean install to Sonoma. Do you recommend using OCLP 1.5.0 or 1.4.3? A thousand thanks
Is it better to choose OS Ventura at the moment or jump straight to Sonoma ? Supposing that the OS should work as flawless as possible on older Macs. Is it also still required with OCLP 1.5.0. to do full installations for all increments of OS Sonoma?
Hey Jessie! I was wondering if you could help me out. I just installed monterey on a clean SSD using OCLP 1.5.0 and everything went well except for my bluetooth, After I performed the post install root paches the wifi started working (I had to manually set it to connect to my network but it works fine) but the bluetooth is off and cannot be turned on. Someone on the OCLP discord told me to perform a PRAM reset but it didn't work, they also told me to revert the root patches, reboot and re install, so I did but it didn't fix the problem. Do you have any suggestions for me? all the best!
Hi, maybe try an older version of OCLP as you’re running Monterey and not Sonoma… uninstall root patch, install older OpenCore, reboot and then install older root patch
When you build a Hackintosh, do you have to buy and install Windows first, or can you somehow change settings and get MacOS directly via open core? But if the computer has no working OS I guess it’s impossible. In that case I need to buy Windows for rather much money and not use it if I manage to install MacOS in the computer.
Im using opencore v1.5.0 with macos sonoma to install on macbook pro 7,1 (high sierra) but after booting EFI & click on install mac os sonoma its stuck at images prompting connect of mouse and keyboard... im already double check model number in open core app to match with macbook pro.I dont know where the problem is...

Hi Jeessie, thank you for video. but i have big problem with update macOS 15 macOS Sequoia Beta, I'm developer , after update to new version my Wi-Fi disable and Pacher error OpenCore legacy patcher unsupported host Os, can you help me?
Well, after about 10 attempts at this process, I am not improcessed. As I executed the installation processes to the letter according to RU-vid videos, I experienced confusing pop-up windows that I had not see addressed in videos. Just frustrated and worn out from attempting to upgrade my 2012 MBP. Not worth the effort by some of us in the Apple world.
I have a Mac Pro 5,1 with Dual CPU (Xeon x5680) and an AMD VEGA56. I installed macOS Sonoma, and the installer and upgrade process ran smoothly. After the installation, I installed the KDK (Kernel Debug Kit) and the Opencore Pre and Root Patches. After rebooting, it started up normally, but after rebooting again, it loads up to 1/3 of the progress bar and then the screen goes black (monitor shows "No Signal"). I can't understand why it works initially and then doesn't. Please help, I need to get this working by tomorrow.
because the display drivers are not loading correctly during the boot. When you did the root patch, are you sure that finished without errors? Because when I did root patch I saw many permissions errors with the 3rd part extensions, and I had to move all the extensions away from the Extensions folder, until the root patch concluded all applies correctly.
Hi, What I find confusing is that when I click on the OCLP version currently installed in my applications folder (0.6.7), a message tells me that I can now update OCLP to 1.5. If I do this, I understand that it will ask me if I want to update the patches. This sounds great because I am still running OS X Monterey 12.6.5. If I do this, will OCLP have to reboot my system? My fear is that if I do this there is a risk the OCLP update (including the patches) will fail to boot the system. If this happens, I will not have a backup means of re-installing the system. Would it not be a better to create a new installer on a different disk and try that out first? So how can I install OCLP 1.5 on my Mac without updating the version already installed in the applications folder - can I download and use OCLP on the desktop even though OCLP 0.6.7 is already installed?
You could install OpenCore to a USB drive and boot from there. But the root patches are always installed into macOS, so there’s no way to test them despite having another hard disk / similar Mac to test it
@@JessiesFlying Hi, thanks for getting back to me. I already went ahead and installed OCLP compiled Ventura and installed onto a fresh drive. The last few steps I found confusing and went round a couple of times (my fault) in order to boot without the USB (in my case an SSD). What I have been busy installing software but the system seems to be running OK. I am getting a prompt that 2 updates are available: Sonoma (not sure I want to risk that) and an update for Safari which includes 'security' update. I don't use Safari. Can I update Safari without starting all over again because Safari requires a reboot?
@@JessiesFlying Thank you for the sound advice. Keep up your important work helping us to make the most of OCLP. It's not quite as easy as it looks or as some presenters would have us believe.
So if someone knows the answer to this. Iv been running OPLP great for years now on 27”imac mid 2011 with Monterey. maxed out and custom gpu machine working perfectly. But some software is starting to not support my OS. Should I upgrade via open core to Sonoma? Will this create a clean install or will it keep my apps and things like VST’s ( it’s my studio music machine ) if I upgrade will it be fresh install or no ? Anyone with any ideas I appreciate you ❤
@@SuperJamesus you can do an update and it will keep your files and data - but I strongly not recommend to do this. I have a lot of trouble on my 2011 iMac with Sonoma! And the newer software will most probably also not work as expected as it’s expecting newer hardware ☝️
This video is great! I have OCLP 1.5.0 on a 2010 Mac Pro works but when I do root patching it does nothing but sits there and never does anything. It does a few steps but just sits there. Is there a reason for that? I'm running Mac OS Monterey 12.7.6.
"I have a 2011 Mac Mini with a 500GB SSD and 8GB of RAM. What can I do with it? Can I install a more updated macOS that allows me to use more current programs?"
I had updated to Ventura 13,6,7 and RU-vid wasn't working on Safari. After the 1.5.0 OCLP it started working again. I can't root patch because it says this: "SystemVersion.plist build version mismatch: 23F79 vs 22G720". Don't know how to work this around.
@@JessiesFlying the problem is that I, stupidly, reverted the root patches installed. I tried to go back into 1.4.3 to root patch but it gets stuck after root patching.
@@JessiesFlying yes, I can. But the functionality of the machine is truly affected. For example, VLC doesn't play videos. And I suspect that it causes another problem: when the monitor goes off, when I move the mouse or hit the keyboard keys, I get a black screen and have to shut down the Mac Mini. I followed your guide to revert to the last sealed snapshot and I can boot but with the limitations I mentioned above.
@@nunosantos8497 so make sure to install OCLP 1.4.3 to the disk, boot without root patches and then install root patch of 1.4.3 (maybe with NVRAM reset)… for Ventura you might even try an even older OCLP version
Hi, how are you? I hope so. I have a problem with my OCLP 1.4.3, it turned off one day out of nowhere and when it came back on it was stuck on the Login screen, I already followed all your videos and others on the Internet and I can't get RootKit to work. Do you think if I reinstall 1.4.2 and install EFI and RootKit it might work? I am running MacOS 14.4, btw.
Hello! I have a problem with my Mac Pro Late 2013. Open Core Legacy Patcher offered me to update to a newer version (1.5.0) and since then I have a lot of graphic bugs. Did you encounter this problem on your 2013 Mac Pro? Thanks
@@JessiesFlying Hello, thank you for answering me. I decided to make it simpler, I reverted to Sonoma 14.2.1 and OPCL to 1.4.3. Everything works in this version, so I'll stay like that. In version 1.5.0 of OCPL, there was an update of the graphics drivers and wifi cards, I think the problem came from this update. The entire graphics system was slow with display bugs and there was no longer any transparency. Thank you and good day ! Matthew
Sonoma 14.3 works great with OCLP 1.4.3 on my iMac 27" retina late 2015, but when I upgrade to Sonoma 14.5 I am not able to log in and the system is unusable. The mouse freezes and it is imposible to enter the password. I hope OCLP 1.5 solves the problem.
i did have to use the USB macos13.6.3 install with the new opencore app to install opencore onto my 5,1 it was okay but my mac decided to not boot after just trying to install the 1.5.0 opencore legacypatcher app it would go into a recovery partition until i made a usb installer with opencoreLegacypatcher1.5.0 on it. i am prob going to have the bootloader on an extra SSD or USB in port1 or sled 1 to see if it also may help if theres any small booting issues and that way i can remove the opencore Drive and refresh it in case its got issues after updating MacOS or the Opencore app again. apart from that my 5,1 is still kicking it

Hello Sir, hope you’re well. I have a question. When installing the latest software(Sonoma) on an unsupported Mac(MacBook pro late 2013) is it best to install the latest software it can update to first, then install the open core and sonoma afterwards? Or should I just erase the drive and install sonoma using open core first? Do you understand what I mean? Like does it matter how it’s installed?

As so many people have said, you are really great at guiding people who are generally know what’s happening, but aren’t programmers. Very thorough and clear 😊
I had many problems with OCLP 1.5 and MacOS 14.5, I needed to move all extensions from /Library/Extensions and root patch again. Before reboot I moved back the extension into the folder, and then boot my OS correctly this time. I tried for almost 3 hours before having my OS stable.

Tony Duncan; I'm a glum old man, in a country far from home, but I've been fairly happy with my Mac choices since 1985...

I waited a few days before commenting as I wanted to make sure all was okay. My wife and I were having issues that every time we shut down we had to reinstall patches as some would not work on boot up. It seems that OCLP v1.5.0 has cured that.
