On a mid 2014 15 inch MacBook Pro Haswell with Iris Graphics and I am SHOCKED by how well Sequoia runs on it (Sonoma seemed to ramp up the fan more). Huge thanks to the OCLP team
My Macbook Pro 2014 13 inch somehow have Sequoia Update in the Setting when i'm currently on Big Sur so i updated through it. And it run like hell. I have to Factory Reset and install Ventura. Felt great. I don't need Sequoia . Just need Ventura to run Office 365.
A1502 Macbook Pro Retina early 2015, working well. Upgraded the m.2 ssd to 1TB and fresh installed Sequoia from a 32GB USB. Went from 10.10.5 to Catalina to Monterey on original drive, then switched out to the Crucial P3 1TB for the Sequoia. We'll keep you posted if any problems crop up.
I just updated Sequoia from Big Sur on my Mac Pro 2009 5,1. I was hesitant because Sur was running smooth for the most part. I wanted to get back into the supported side of things at the very least. I thought to go to monterey first but said screw it go all the way. So far its been running real smooth. Im happy I made the move. Thanks so much for your videos huge help
Hey, Mr. Macintosh, thanks so much, again! for getting these videos out so promptly. My midyear 2011 imac was in the shop till just recently after a screen black out, failure to start up. Apparently my 32 GB Ram upgrade last year blew half the Ram slots out, so after a good clean including one fan that was blocked with years of dust, she is back and running both high sierra and Ventura 13.7 on a partitioned hard drive AND yesterday, successful and not quite seamless install of Sequoia on an external ssd with OCLP 2.0.2! Sequoia is running well on 16GB ram. I skipped Sonoma after multiple attempts due to constant glitching and went back to Ventura as the stable basis of the OCLP attempts on the old imac. Fortunately, while she was in the shop, i acquired a 2021 m1 imac and have the luxury of the ease of a direct update now on that system. Great work OCLP team!! This latest Sequoia ugrade was the most easy yet on the old mid year 2011 imac! Thanks so much for all your persistent ceaseless work!
Hey Mr. McIntosh, good video as always. I have an iMac late 2000 1527 inch 5K and I have chosen to stick with Monterey as a primary OS with Mojave installed as a dual boot and Linux. My reason is because I require graphical functions that do not work in open core patched systems that are known. limitations for legacy GCN graphics. I have the latest open core Legacy patcher installed, and still plan to create an APFS volume for it. However, there is not a large need at this time. my family in Florida did go through the hurricane, but everyone is OK and their power has been restored. and there was minimal damage where they live.
Thanks for your wonderful support. My MBP 2015 and two iMac 27’ mid 2015 flawlessly updated. On all three machines I got an download error and with the second try it worked perfectly. Maybe I was too fast in downloading my files. Anyway I now wait for the next Sequoia release. CU and you know: no action without your advice… Regards from Germany
I have a 2012 13" MacBook Pro, I made the mistake of erasing the hard drive while having Sonoma installed and upgrading to Sequoia, I made the installer properly, BUT my rookie mistake in hindsight was erasing the hard drive w the view all option and erasing the toppest option and not just the volume. This clean install of sequoia could not be installed (i have all my files backed up on a 128gb usb stick) an error message kept coming up. You have to reinstall (for me, Mountain Lion, 2012 MacBook pro) to fix this potentially expensive issue, I did not know at the time, open core legacy cannot be downloaded in that version of operating system(mountain lion). I was mortified, almost defeated, I was on eBay looking for something that had Yosemite as its base (to download Opencore), at least a $230 endeavor. I digress, AFTER installing Mountain Lion, plug in your sequoia installer/booter stick you created, hold option, erase the volume(not the toppest option w view all), close disk utility, and resume with the sequoia installer, 5 reboots later you will be at the set up page. What a headache, took me like 7-9 hours to figure this out.
Just a heads up for Sonoma 14.6.7 - The USB Hub I was using on my older MBP before the patches loaded no longer allows an external mouse and keyboard to enable legacy USB support. This USB hub had worked previously for every other upgrade - but for some reason this is no longer the case. Just a warning for others thinking about attempting the latest Sonoma upgrade.
Updated iMac 2013 from sonoma. Installed the root patches with OCLP 2.0.1 and had the white background issue. I had updated OCLP from the last 1.x.x version. But, didn’t realise 2.0.1 defaulted to a base model imac. So I changed it to the correct one, reinstalled correct root patches rebooted and it fixed the background issue and program responses.
How were you able to fix it? I am having the same issue on Sonoma. I updated to OCLP 2.1.2 and my imac now have white background and white border on the dock and moving slow
I have a mid-2012 MBP (9,1) with 16GB RAM, 2TB Samsung SSD, 1GB VRAM, upgraded 3rd party Bluetooth card. I am running a legacy version of Photoshop because of the VRAM limit otherwise Sequoia running well.
mid-2012 MBP 15" logic board housed in a Late 2011 MBP shell, 16DB Ram, and 1 TB Samsung SSD here. what's the 3rd party Bluetooth card you're using? and is it useful to with mirroring features like the iphone and ipad connectivity?
Hi, Thank you very much for the latest updates. Sequoia was unstable at the beginning , I formatted the SSD and reinstall it on an empty partition resulting with a deformed monster os, running OCLP corrected every thing having a stable and Wonderfull OS on mid 2014 MacBook Pro. thanks
I clicked on ‘Dowload and install’ when OCLP 2.0.1 offered me to upgrade. This is on. mid 2012 MacBook Pro 13” with Sonoma 14.7. However, at the end of the Root patch install, there we some error messages. Sorry, I didn’t write them down. So I reinstalled 2.0.1.
This has finally fixed desktop widgets! I was having issues with battery status and weather widgets not displaying anything but that seems to be fixed now.
I installed this on my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Air and when it was done I had slow running and a total white screen. I fixed it by running the open core software install again and reinstalling the root patches again and it came back up with the Tree Background on the page and now runs fast and perfect. I did also install it on my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Pro. It did the same thing on the Pro machine. I did the same fix and that machine runs great now also. I installed the software from within the Mac OS system as if it was a new type machine allowed to have this software on both of these also.
Have you experienced any issues with the iCloud account and iMessage with this new update on your Mid 2012 MacBook Pro? I have mostly everything running decently and fast but I cannot make iMessage to work and cannot modify anything on my iCloud account since the information is kind of read only. Thanks for any tips
Thanks for this. Updated and can confirm that my early 2015 MBP 13 works mostly great. Still not able to use iPad as extended screen (using ipad as an additional monitor) even with spoofing activated. I was able to get the ability to extend the keyboard and mouse to work on the on the ipad but only if a turned spoofing on as an Macbook Pro 16, 2
Mr Macintosh, Are you aware of any issues with a iMac (27 inch, Late 2012) not being able to connect to MS OneDrive App. I have installed OCLP 2.02 and Sequoia 15.0. I was able to do the same OCLP and OS install on my MBP (Retina, 15inch Mid-2015) with no issues connecting to OneDrive. I appreciate any insight you may have. Thanks for taking the time to create these videos. Supper Helpful!!
Updated to 2.0.2 on my late 2013 iMac sequoia. Still same problem. No Wi-Fi and wallpaper not updating. White screen/wallpaper which does not change even by selecting a different one
Try rebooting your router and don’t launch a web browser then try the screensavers, they need to download and the problem is the internet connection which is very buggy with Sequoia disconnecting from the internet. I reverted to Sonoma because safari would not load websites at all.
@@MacSoundSolutions Hi thanks for advice, tried but made no difference still the same Wi-Fi not connecting and the wallpaper not showing. The root patch recognises modern wireless but not patch as usually requires reboot after patch but it hangs and says return to main menu rather than reboot to apply changes.
Currently using OCLP Ventura for my 2011 Air i7. While it is somewhat useable, I do wish that the OCLP team would create a strip-down OS mostly focusing on browser certificates and app requirements. Creating app compatibility to the best it can and not more on the added features that can take a toll on the cpu or ram computing.
I updated my 4GB Mid 2011 to Sequoia as an experiment. It works, but it's slow and runs hot as expected. I will downgrade later to something more stable, like Ventura. Still, the fact it even works shows how amazing the OCLP team is!
If you haven't upgraded the HDD to an SSD, I highly recommend it as it will make a big difference. Also, upgrade your ram to the max to can. Its not too expensive, and well worth it
Finally waved goodbye to my favourite Mac Os : Monterey . Installed Oclp Ventura , inc 18.0 Safari , fresh installed with backup migration ( shame about the system settings layout ) This version runs really well on the Mac mini 2014 , performance is equal with the added bonus of support updates . Highly reccomended to all fussy Mac users . Thankyou .
2010 5,1 updated flawlessly. My only issue still stems from losing USB cameras. I'm on the macOS Sequoia Developer Beta so, it may strictly be a function of being on the Developer Beta...yes, I know it's stupid to be on the Developer Beta but like Austin Powers, Danger is my middle name...
First of all, thank you for the fantastic work you are doing. Today I installed the latest version of Sonoma 14.7 on my MacBookPro11.3 based on the current Patcher 2.0.2. The installation worked perfectly without any problems. I started from the latest version Big Sur. The only problem is that the "touchpad click" function doesn't work. This was already the case after installing the version of Big Sur still supported by Apple on my Mac. The hardware diagnosis could not find any errors. My question, is my trackpad no longer supported by MacOS? Or is there a solution (firmware patch)? Either way, I have mapped everything on the pad to gestures. Thanks again, and keep the good work.
on my 2012 Macbook Pro 13, 2017 Macbook Air 13", 2010 iMac 27", 2011 iMac 27" all are running fine with OCLP Sequoia. Still having issues with updating from Monterey to higher on OCLP on 2008 Macbook 13" 5,1 and 2009 Macbook 5,2.
Since 2.0.2 been having rampant issue with my MP 5,1. Long story short Sonoma and Sequoia booth have wallpaper corruption and desktop lockup. And this is with RX580 8GB which has been dead nuts reliable. Trying to go back to Monterey thinking it was my computer being older, but now wifi and Bluetooth issue. Ventura issues with Bluetooth and also wifi too. But I know for a fact over the last 2 years the computer has been stable but since 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 I have been having issue.
Thank you for your videos ! A question : I have an iMac late 2015 with Sonoma and OCLP. To update to Sequoia : with update in system settings or with an external USB drive ? Thank you
Have Mac Pro 4.1/5.1 with dual Xeon 5680, RX 580 8GB and 80 GB of Ram. After installing OCLP 2.0.0 it only boots into Recovery Mode and won't boot from USB or anything. Supposedly supported Kingston NVMe SSD.
the boot manager Sonoma can't see the OpenCore Sequoia boot disk also? I have this issue, the hardware is a Late 2015 5K iMac and I used OpenCore 2.0.2 (I wonder if I installed a Beta version of 2.0.2 but it doesn't say that on the version info)? What could be the fix?
@ What happened is that once I upgraded OCLP to 2.0.0 my machine wouldn’t boot. I hade to make a new bootable USB and do a reinstall. Went with Sequoia and that works great now. Let’s hope it survives 15.1 that was released a few days ago.
@ I’d suggest ypu make a new USB installer and make sure you didn’t, by mistake, made it for other hardware than what you are installing on. I made a new installer with OCLP 2.0.2 and Sequoia 15.01 and that worked like a charm. I have a spare cMP 5.1 that is almost identical to my production my machine. Today I tried installing OCLP 2.1.0 and it broke the installation of 15.01 on that machine. I guess there is something with blessing the boot volume that doesn’t work, and that’s why this happens. cMP have a less restricted boot ROM than other machines and also root patched to allow installing and running without AVX support in hardware. I suggest upgrading to OCLP 2.1.0 and MacOS 15.1 by building a new USB installer and installing from it. If you can’t boot from USB I’d suggest using a USB-2.0 hub between keyboard and computer and also zap NvRAM.
Quick question. Is there a way to set my imac to do auto mac updates or at least when I push through an update, open core legacy patcher will basically auto update the software and or download the root patches automatically? Or does the root patching always have to be initially manually after mac os updates are installed? And I'm not talking about a full operating system upgrade just within the same os x but an update to it. Can't find a direct answer on this. Thank you
Anyone have issues with FaceTime, iMessage, Calendars... essentially iCloud dependent apps not working after upgrading to Sequoia using OCLP on a 2016 MacBook Pro? FaceTime and iMessage won't even open. The rest open but don't sync. I tried signing out of iCloud in system settings and that just freezes and says it's signing out of iCloud but never does. Any ideas?
Hi Mr. Macintosh (or anyone who knows the answer!). I have followed the steps and successfully upgraded a 2012 MB Pro to Ventura. I decided to upgrade my 2016 MB Pro to Ventura as well. The difference between two two systems is that I have a Windows 10 partition installed on the 2016 MB Pro. I have successfully installed Ventura onto the machine, but I must use the USB drive to boot each time (regardless how many times I have followed the open core prompt to install the patches so I can boot it normally). I'm wondering if the Windows partition is the problem. Do you have any suggestions so I can boot into Ventura or Windows without using the USB drive? If I must get rid of the Windows partition, I would be OK to take that step. Thank you!
Hi my macOS Sonoma Boot Manager, the OpenCore 2.0.2 made Sequoia USB external drive boot disk- it doesn't appear even when you press 'Option' and the EFI boot' too. I'm using a Late 2015 5K iMac which has Metal. I wonder what's the fix, my external USD drive setup was successful in the past OpenCore macOS upgrades.
@Mr. Macintosh, I have been trying to achieve something for 3 days now without success, I have a MacBook Pro early 2015 and it has Monterrey, I want to get Universal Control working but I dont want to update to Sequoia. Your video was somewhat helpful but you did it on an old version of open core legacy patcher. Can you help me with this?
Great video Mr. Mac! I've instaled OCLP 2.0.2 and MacOS Sequoia on MBP 8.2 2011 early. Only issue I have is maps not working. Only black screen. Can you help, advice? Thanks in advance!
Updated without any problems on my MacBook Pro retina 10,1 mid 2012. Working with MacOs 15.0 I do have a problem in my mac. The batteries are new but as i use it to my travels they tend to pressure the mouse pad and the mouse moves by it self or get confusing sensibility... So i have to always carry a screwdriver to open it and alleviate the batteries sometimes! Other than that thank God for OCLP!!! \o/
Updated to 2.0.2 on my late 2013 iMac 27 to sequoia. Still same problem others seem to be having with no wi-fi. but my ethernet connections works. Thanks
My MacBook Pro 14,1 was on High Sierra Mac OS 10.13. The latest supported Mac OS is Ventura Mac OS 13. Instead of upgrading to Ventura, I instead jumped straight from High Sierra to Sonoma using OCLP. Is that a mistake? Should I have upgraded to Ventura using the conventional upgrading method to make sure I get all the firmware updates from Apple, then use OCLP to upgrade to Sonoma?
I'm running a 2011 iMac 27 with Sequoia and OpenCore 2.02. The video keeps shutting down, randomly, like the screen gone to sleep, but the sound is still running. Pressing the on button repeatedly the video comes back on. I'm also running Windows 11 in Bootcamp and the problem does not occur, so I know it's not a hardware problem with the graphics card (NVIDIA Quadro K1100M) evrything working fine up to Ventura and Sonoma. The problems started when OpenCore upgraded to 2.0.
I've heard that there was an issue with the wifi on the 2017 27" imac with the sequoia install. Can you tell me if they have that resolved with the OCLP 2.0.2?
Still can't get Sequoia dynamic wallpaper working on my MacBook Pro 11,3 just get blue screen though the screen saver is working but looks like it's been magnified x1000. The Macintosh dynamic wallpaper is working fine.
Holding on to Ventura for 2012 MacBook Pro and 2015 27" iMac for the reason that both Sonoma and Sequoia, neither will work with streaming services with Safari. If anyone knows a workaround, I would be all ears for it!
Great video with all detailed explanations. That’s a really great job! Congratulations. However, the additional packages needed for specific models was not clear enough in my opinion and maybe you could endeavor to release an extra video to better explain which one of the provided packages needs to be downloaded and patched. That’s a suggestion. Please don’t take this the wrong way !
it works fine in my 2015 macbook pro, the only issue I have is whenever i go to watch a video on fullscreen, the tool bar always appears at the top, can't change the options and its not that bad, but just kinda annoying...
Have Sequoia 15.1 successfully installed on a late 2015 Mac. I need to know how to erase and restore to factory sittings. The Mac/OS gives an error when I try to use erase assistant and gives the error cannot perform this function because the Mac/os has been modified. Is there a provision to erase and restore in the OCLP Sequoia 15.1 build?
2.0.2 fixed the problem I was having with Steam (video card issue, I suppose), but my webcam issue remains (My USB-A camera(s) stopped working after updating to Sequoia (I've actually tried two different cameras that have been working since 2020.). Progress, I guess.
What USB hubs are you guys using on the older Mac to get keyboard and mouse working? The one I'm using now is no longer working and ive tried 3 other hubs with no success. Is there a specific sort of hub I should be purchasing to be able to get past the logon screen? Thanks for any help you can offer
All ent well on my fleet for this update. Every system from 2007 to 2017 installed the update automatically as intended, The only issues I can report: The App Store App crashes on my 2007 20” iMac. On my 2007 iMac and my 2009 and 2010 13” polycarbonate MacBooks, Pages wont load. It crashes. On the 2007 iMac and 2009 polycarbonate MackBook, Numbers and Keynote crashes. Those two apps run on the 2010 MacBook. The 2007 has 6 Gb; the 2009 has 8 Gb; the 2010 has 16 Gb. Last issue is on Kepler NVIDIA GPU’s, the colorful Sequoia wallpaper wont load properly. Something loads that is predominately blue. The Forest wallpaper and screensaver works. On the older machines, the colorful Sequoia wall paper wont load period - however it loads the forest version. Other than those, all is intensely perfect. I do believe on the 2007 iMac, you can see how the macOS memory management works. It takes a while for the OS to organize itself, but once thats done, the system runs OK and for the apps that work and for web use, it is usable without using swap memory. Amazing. Patience is essential with these older machines.
Yes, but note that is where you initiate from the mac and can control the iphone. You can still airplay from the iphone to the mac screen, at least on many models if you just want to show the screen.
I’ve been playing a bit with my late 2012 Mac mini and pushed it to Ventura which it handles ‘ok’ on the ancient mechanical drive. I boot my iMac to an external ssd but have left it on Monterey it’s a late 2015 anyone updated it to a slightly newer OS with ok results? It has 8gb in that one. Think I’ll likely go for the M4 pro mini if announced - not used any Mac silicone yet.
I recognized that with MacOS 15.0 Sequoia the "FindMy Objects" on my 14,2 Mac don't update. People and devices update. OCLP 2.0.2 did not solve this issue. On my iPhone (iOS 18) all works fine.
Thanks for all of the efforts you all do. I delayed my upgrade from Ventura to Sonoma on my 2013 14,3 iMac until yesterday. I upgraded to OCLP 2.0.2 from 2.0.0, then let it sit for a couple of days before doing the upgrade. Today the video is going crazy. I'm getting "flashes" when I move my mouse and when the computer goes to screen saver at 20 minutes it doesn't come out of it. I've had to hard reboot a few times. I don't know if I should try reversing the OCLP video drivers or just go back to Ventura. Any direction on this would be appreciated. In the meantime my windows pc will have to do.
I stumbled upon a reason for the video going crazy. It's my bluetooth "magic" mouse. I turned bluetooth off and used s USB mouse and all is now fixed. For now. I'll be pushing this machine to see if it is more permanent.
A follow-up. After my machine went to sleep, I woke it up with the Apple USB keyboard and the video went nuts again while using the USB mouse. I'm going back to Ventura.
Well, the machine seems stable on Sonoma so I'm leaving it alone. No video problems yet like I had initially (I'm still using a USB mouse, not bluetooth).
Yep. I went back to Ventura. I can't find Pages on my iMac nor on Time Machine, so I went to the app store and Pages won't install on Ventura. I need Sonoma. OY.
My video is really goofy. I'm back on Ventura and the machine is not used much, but when Chrome was open the video went crazy. I wanted to upload a pix but I don't know how.
On iMac 2015 running Sequoia I updated OCLP to 2.0.2, ran fine. Now upon restarting I get the firmware padlock. Never seen it before and I did not set a firmware password. Machine is bricked.
Hi, just a quick question. I have an old 21.5 Mid 2011 iMac running Sonoma with only 12 gigs of ram. Would I notice any improvement if I added more ram and can I increase it to 32, or is 16 my maximum please
Any suggestions to resolve a non-working super drive under a dual system on a Mac Pro 3,1 - macOS El Capitan recognizes the drive, and it works? macOS Sonoma under OCLP 2.02 doesn't recognize the drive, and the eject button seems to have been nullified. Thank you.
I have a late 2011 nonmetal 13" MacBook Pro 8,1, that's been upgraded with 16 GBs and a 1 TB SSD. It's currently running Ventura. Should I update to Sonoma or Sequoia?
It appears that OCLP2.0.2 does not allow to "Create macOS Installer" on an empty partition of the external SSD, a process I used when installing Sonoma 14.6. When selecting this external drive, it warns that it erases it all (the current Sonoma is on it!). Is this a feature or a bug?
I'm on a 2014 iMac running Big Sur. I've never wiped this hard drive in all these years. Is it unwise to upgrade using OpenCore without first starting with a wiped hard drive and fresh install of Big Sur?
Is my very old MacBook Pro 5.5 mid 2009 ready for Ventura? Do I have still the Problems with Keyboard and Wifi?! I think I need a new one by the end of the year 😢😅
Thank you for this. However, when updating the latest OpenCore Legacy patcher it keeps on telling me that I am booting from an outdated OpenCore build: Booted 2.0.1 and Installed 2.0.2. It is asking me if I wish to updated it and I keep on saying yes but no changes. Anyone experienced this before? My machine is a iMac 27 late 2015. Thx
So, I'm in the middle of trying to install Monterey on a MacBook5,1 Unibody. I cannot seem to get past the installer portion. A bit of an issue I suppose.
I'm currently staying on supported Monterey on my mid 2015 15" MBP as playing Apple purchased movies does not work when there is an external monitor attached in any way. Direct HDMI or thru TB2 dock. I tried Sonoma and Sequoia. No change. No one tests apps like the TV app to see if things still work. Does OCLP 2.0.2 fix that?.
I installed OCLP on my sister’s 2012 iMac 21.5” with 1tb Fusion Drive and 16gb of RAM and it works great. I tried installing the 2.0.2 update but it just reboots and the app says that it is still on the 1.5 update. I tried updating like 4 times but same thing each time. Please tell me what I am doing wrong 😅
What are your specs (RAM and SSD or mechanical drive)? Also, I have found that enabling "Reduce Transparency" in Accessibility > Display improves performance a bit on non-Metal machines.
I just used OCLP 2.0.2 to install Mac OSX 15.0.1 Sequoia but I no longer have WiFi. My iMac is 15.1 3.3GHz 27" with a Broadcom BCM 43xx1.0 WiFi card. I understand WiFi should work after patching .... as it did with Sonoma.
FIXED. Re-installing Mac OSX 11.7.10 Big Sur was my ultimate solution to restore WiFi using the Broadcom BCM 43xx1.0 WiFi card on my iMac 15.1 3.3 GHz 27" 5K mid-2015, A1419, EMC 2806... For now I will not be trying to use OCLP 2.0.2 to install Mac OSX 15.0.1 Sequoia on this machine.
I was having problems with installing OCP on my iMac7,1; on the system itself, if I try and open OCP in El Capitan it doesn’t even launch. If I prepare an install disk for it on another Mac, I get as far as a black screen with an Apple logo but no progress bar (just hangs). Any ideas?
@@coolturishta I am only making sometimes Musik, watching yt Videos and Programming with xcode, and I dont if the Mac is Running to Slow with sequoia when I am Doing these things
mb air 2017 and gets stuck after second reboot. thanks for your hard work, but its so problematic and full of bugs. i mean it must not be installed on a work computer, for serious jobs.

My Macbook Pro 2014 13 inch somehow have Sequoia Update in the Setting when i'm currently on Big Sur so i updated through it. And it run like hell. I have to Factory Reset and install Ventura. Felt great. I don't need Sequoia . Just need Ventura to run Office 365.

I thought to go to monterey first but said screw it go all the way. So far its been running real smooth. Im happy I made the move. Thanks so much for your videos huge help
Installed this immediately. The 2017 MacBook Pro runs like an Olympic Champ on the latest OS thanks to you.
Hey, Mr. Macintosh, thanks so much, again! for getting these videos out so promptly. My midyear 2011 imac was in the shop till just recently after a screen black out, failure to start up. Apparently my 32 GB Ram upgrade last year blew half the Ram slots out, so after a good clean including one fan that was blocked with years of dust, she is back and running both high sierra and Ventura 13.7 on a partitioned hard drive AND yesterday, successful and not quite seamless install of Sequoia on an external ssd with OCLP 2.0.2! Sequoia is running well on 16GB ram. I skipped Sonoma after multiple attempts due to constant glitching and went back to Ventura as the stable basis of the OCLP attempts on the old imac. Fortunately, while she was in the shop, i acquired a 2021 m1 imac and have the luxury of the ease of a direct update now on that system. Great work OCLP team!! This latest Sequoia ugrade was the most easy yet on the old mid year 2011 imac! Thanks so much for all your persistent ceaseless work!
Hey Mr. McIntosh, good video as always. I have an iMac late 2000 1527 inch 5K and I have chosen to stick with Monterey as a primary OS with Mojave installed as a dual boot and Linux. My reason is because I require graphical functions that do not work in open core patched systems that are known. limitations for legacy GCN graphics. I have the latest open core Legacy patcher installed, and still plan to create an APFS volume for it. However, there is not a large need at this time. my family in Florida did go through the hurricane, but everyone is OK and their power has been restored. and there was minimal damage where they live.
Thanks for your wonderful support. My MBP 2015 and two iMac 27’ mid 2015 flawlessly updated. On all three machines I got an download error and with the second try it worked perfectly. Maybe I was too fast in downloading my files. Anyway I now wait for the next Sequoia release. CU and you know: no action without your advice…

I have a 2012 13" MacBook Pro, I made the mistake of erasing the hard drive while having Sonoma installed and upgrading to Sequoia, I made the installer properly, BUT my rookie mistake in hindsight was erasing the hard drive w the view all option and erasing the toppest option and not just the volume. This clean install of sequoia could not be installed (i have all my files backed up on a 128gb usb stick) an error message kept coming up. You have to reinstall (for me, Mountain Lion, 2012 MacBook pro) to fix this potentially expensive issue, I did not know at the time, open core legacy cannot be downloaded in that version of operating system(mountain lion). I was mortified, almost defeated, I was on eBay looking for something that had Yosemite as its base (to download Opencore), at least a $230 endeavor. I digress, AFTER installing Mountain Lion, plug in your sequoia installer/booter stick you created, hold option, erase the volume(not the toppest option w view all), close disk utility, and resume with the sequoia installer, 5 reboots later you will be at the set up page. What a headache, took me like 7-9 hours to figure this out.
Made that mistake myself years ago with 10.8 to 10.9 😂
@@justaman5418 Literally, the worst.
Just a heads up for Sonoma 14.6.7 - The USB Hub I was using on my older MBP before the patches loaded no longer allows an external mouse and keyboard to enable legacy USB support. This USB hub had worked previously for every other upgrade - but for some reason this is no longer the case. Just a warning for others thinking about attempting the latest Sonoma upgrade.
Updated iMac 2013 from sonoma. Installed the root patches with OCLP 2.0.1 and had the white background issue. I had updated OCLP from the last 1.x.x version. But, didn’t realise 2.0.1 defaulted to a base model imac. So I changed it to the correct one, reinstalled correct root patches rebooted and it fixed the background issue and program responses.
How were you able to fix it? I am having the same issue on Sonoma. I updated to OCLP 2.1.2 and my imac now have white background and white border on the dock and moving slow
I have a mid-2012 MBP (9,1) with 16GB RAM, 2TB Samsung SSD, 1GB VRAM, upgraded 3rd party Bluetooth card. I am running a legacy version of Photoshop because of the VRAM limit otherwise Sequoia running well.
mid-2012 MBP 15" logic board housed in a Late 2011 MBP shell, 16DB Ram, and 1 TB Samsung SSD here. what's the 3rd party Bluetooth card you're using? and is it useful to with mirroring features like the iphone and ipad connectivity?
Smooth update on OCLP 2.0.2 on 2012 Mac Mini (6,1) 16GB/SSD running Sequoia 15
Hi, Thank you very much for the latest updates. Sequoia was unstable at the beginning , I formatted the SSD and reinstall it on an empty partition resulting with a deformed monster os, running OCLP corrected every thing having a stable and Wonderfull OS on mid 2014 MacBook Pro. thanks
Thanks. Working well on MacBookPro 8,1 late 2011 running Sequoia 15.0
I clicked on ‘Dowload and install’ when OCLP 2.0.1 offered me to upgrade. This is on. mid 2012 MacBook Pro 13” with Sonoma 14.7. However, at the end of the Root patch install, there we some error messages. Sorry, I didn’t write them down. So I reinstalled 2.0.1.
I did the same and now macOS just freezes after I attempt to login
my 2012 MacBook Pro 15" mid 2012 (with 16gb of ram and an SSD) seems to be running sequoia and 2.0.2 very well.
Excellent work. Again. Thank you very much. Mid-2012 MBP with upgraded WiFi on Sonoma. Brilliant
This has finally fixed desktop widgets! I was having issues with battery status and weather widgets not displaying anything but that seems to be fixed now.
I installed this on my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Air and when it was done I had slow running and a total white screen. I fixed it by running the open core software install again and reinstalling the root patches again and it came back up with the Tree Background on the page and now runs fast and perfect. I did also install it on my Mid 2012 13" Macbook Pro. It did the same thing on the Pro machine. I did the same fix and that machine runs great now also. I installed the software from within the Mac OS system as if it was a new type machine allowed to have this software on both of these also.
Have you experienced any issues with the iCloud account and iMessage with this new update on your Mid 2012 MacBook Pro? I have mostly everything running decently and fast but I cannot make iMessage to work and cannot modify anything on my iCloud account since the information is kind of read only.
Thanks for any tips
I have a MBA 2015 and I just updated to Sequoia and it works about as well as Monterey did.
Thanks for this. Updated and can confirm that my early 2015 MBP 13 works mostly great. Still not able to use iPad as extended screen (using ipad as an additional monitor) even with spoofing activated. I was able to get the ability to extend the keyboard and mouse to work on the on the ipad but only if a turned spoofing on as an Macbook Pro 16, 2
Good work as always, sir!
Thanx .

Mr Macintosh, Are you aware of any issues with a iMac (27 inch, Late 2012) not being able to connect to MS OneDrive App. I have installed OCLP 2.02 and Sequoia 15.0. I was able to do the same OCLP and OS install on my MBP (Retina, 15inch Mid-2015) with no issues connecting to OneDrive. I appreciate any insight you may have. Thanks for taking the time to create these videos. Supper Helpful!!
Updated to 2.0.2 on my late 2013 iMac sequoia. Still same problem. No Wi-Fi and wallpaper not updating. White screen/wallpaper which does not change even by selecting a different one
Try rebooting your router and don’t launch a web browser then try the screensavers, they need to download and the problem is the internet connection which is very buggy with Sequoia disconnecting from the internet. I reverted to Sonoma because safari would not load websites at all.
@@MacSoundSolutions thanks, will give that a try.
@@MacSoundSolutions Hi thanks for advice, tried but made no difference still the same Wi-Fi not connecting and the wallpaper not showing. The root patch recognises modern wireless but not patch as usually requires reboot after patch but it hangs and says return to main menu rather than reboot to apply changes.
@@arazzak4979 did you try deleting your saved wifi connection, connecting again and entering password?
I am having the same issue on my iMac 27 late 2015 white screen Ethernet shows local IP but cannot surf white screen
Currently using OCLP Ventura for my 2011 Air i7. While it is somewhat useable, I do wish that the OCLP team would create a strip-down OS mostly focusing on browser certificates and app requirements. Creating app compatibility to the best it can and not more on the added features that can take a toll on the cpu or ram computing.
My MacBook Pro, 9,2 mid 2012 13 inch is running Sequoia 15 and OCLP 2.0.2 just fine.
I updated my 4GB Mid 2011 to Sequoia as an experiment. It works, but it's slow and runs hot as expected. I will downgrade later to something more stable, like Ventura. Still, the fact it even works shows how amazing the OCLP team is!
If you haven't upgraded the HDD to an SSD, I highly recommend it as it will make a big difference. Also, upgrade your ram to the max to can. Its not too expensive, and well worth it
Finally waved goodbye to my favourite Mac Os : Monterey . Installed Oclp Ventura , inc 18.0 Safari , fresh installed with backup migration ( shame about the system settings layout ) This version runs really well on the Mac mini 2014 , performance is equal with the added bonus of support updates . Highly reccomended to all fussy Mac users .
Thankyou .
I happen to be a big fan of System Settings. I actually decide what I prefer instead of following the trends.
@@Taxiway_Alpha I have gone back to Monterey with Firefox amazing !
THAnks but touch id and touchbar not working for me
Omg pls tell me you found a Solution?😢
2010 5,1 updated flawlessly. My only issue still stems from losing USB cameras. I'm on the macOS Sequoia Developer Beta so, it may strictly be a function of being on the Developer Beta...yes, I know it's stupid to be on the Developer Beta but like Austin Powers, Danger is my middle name...
First of all, thank you for the fantastic work you are doing.
Today I installed the latest version of Sonoma 14.7 on my MacBookPro11.3 based on the current Patcher 2.0.2. The installation worked perfectly without any problems. I started from the latest version Big Sur. The only problem is that the "touchpad click" function doesn't work. This was already the case after installing the version of Big Sur still supported by Apple on my Mac. The hardware diagnosis could not find any errors. My question, is my trackpad no longer supported by MacOS? Or is there a solution (firmware patch)? Either way, I have mapped everything on the pad to gestures. Thanks again, and keep the good work.
on my 2012 Macbook Pro 13, 2017 Macbook Air 13", 2010 iMac 27", 2011 iMac 27" all are running fine with OCLP Sequoia. Still having issues with updating from Monterey to higher on OCLP on 2008 Macbook 13" 5,1 and 2009 Macbook 5,2.
On my Macbook 2008 is still running OLP Monteray. Had problems upgrading to something higher.
Since 2.0.2 been having rampant issue with my MP 5,1. Long story short Sonoma and Sequoia booth have wallpaper corruption and desktop lockup. And this is with RX580 8GB which has been dead nuts reliable. Trying to go back to Monterey thinking it was my computer being older, but now wifi and Bluetooth issue. Ventura issues with Bluetooth and also wifi too. But I know for a fact over the last 2 years the computer has been stable but since 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 I have been having issue.
Thank you for your videos ! A question : I have an iMac late 2015 with Sonoma and OCLP. To update to Sequoia : with update in system settings or with an external USB drive ? Thank you
Have Mac Pro 4.1/5.1 with dual Xeon 5680, RX 580 8GB and 80 GB of Ram. After installing OCLP 2.0.0 it only boots into Recovery Mode and won't boot from USB or anything. Supposedly supported Kingston NVMe SSD.
the boot manager Sonoma can't see the OpenCore Sequoia boot disk also? I have this issue, the hardware is a Late 2015 5K iMac and I used OpenCore 2.0.2 (I wonder if I installed a Beta version of 2.0.2 but it doesn't say that on the version info)? What could be the fix?
@ What happened is that once I upgraded OCLP to 2.0.0 my machine wouldn’t boot. I hade to make a new bootable USB and do a reinstall. Went with Sequoia and that works great now. Let’s hope it survives 15.1 that was released a few days ago.
@@ezrollergbg Hi, my USB installer isn't seen by the Boor Manager when I boot then press 'Option', wasn't like this before.
@ I’d suggest ypu make a new USB installer and make sure you didn’t, by mistake, made it for other hardware than what you are installing on.
I made a new installer with OCLP 2.0.2 and Sequoia 15.01 and that worked like a charm.
I have a spare cMP 5.1 that is almost identical to my production my machine. Today I tried installing OCLP 2.1.0 and it broke the installation of 15.01 on that machine. I guess there is something with blessing the boot volume that doesn’t work, and that’s why this happens. cMP have a less restricted boot ROM than other machines and also root patched to allow installing and running without AVX support in hardware.
I suggest upgrading to OCLP 2.1.0 and MacOS 15.1 by building a new USB installer and installing from it. If you can’t boot from USB I’d suggest using a USB-2.0 hub between keyboard and computer and also zap NvRAM.
Quick question. Is there a way to set my imac to do auto mac updates or at least when I push through an update, open core legacy patcher will basically auto update the software and or download the root patches automatically? Or does the root patching always have to be initially manually after mac os updates are installed? And I'm not talking about a full operating system upgrade just within the same os x but an update to it. Can't find a direct answer on this. Thank you
Anyone have issues with FaceTime, iMessage, Calendars... essentially iCloud dependent apps not working after upgrading to Sequoia using OCLP on a 2016 MacBook Pro? FaceTime and iMessage won't even open. The rest open but don't sync. I tried signing out of iCloud in system settings and that just freezes and says it's signing out of iCloud but never does. Any ideas?
Hi Mr. Macintosh (or anyone who knows the answer!). I have followed the steps and successfully upgraded a 2012 MB Pro to Ventura. I decided to upgrade my 2016 MB Pro to Ventura as well. The difference between two two systems is that I have a Windows 10 partition installed on the 2016 MB Pro. I have successfully installed Ventura onto the machine, but I must use the USB drive to boot each time (regardless how many times I have followed the open core prompt to install the patches so I can boot it normally). I'm wondering if the Windows partition is the problem. Do you have any suggestions so I can boot into Ventura or Windows without using the USB drive? If I must get rid of the Windows partition, I would be OK to take that step. Thank you!
Hi my macOS Sonoma Boot Manager, the OpenCore 2.0.2 made Sequoia USB external drive boot disk- it doesn't appear even when you press 'Option' and the EFI boot' too. I'm using a Late 2015 5K iMac which has Metal.
I wonder what's the fix, my external USD drive setup was successful in the past OpenCore macOS upgrades.
@Mr. Macintosh, I have been trying to achieve something for 3 days now without success, I have a MacBook Pro early 2015 and it has Monterrey, I want to get Universal Control working but I dont want to update to Sequoia. Your video was somewhat helpful but you did it on an old version of open core legacy patcher. Can you help me with this?
Do you have a video on how to change advanced OCLP settings, e.g. making partial features? It seems to always go back to original settings for me.
Great video Mr. Mac! I've instaled OCLP 2.0.2 and MacOS Sequoia on MBP 8.2 2011 early. Only issue I have is maps not working. Only black screen. Can you help, advice? Thanks in advance!
Updated without any problems on my MacBook Pro retina 10,1 mid 2012. Working with MacOs 15.0
I do have a problem in my mac. The batteries are new but as i use it to my travels they tend to pressure the mouse pad and the mouse moves by it self or get confusing sensibility... So i have to always carry a screwdriver to open it and alleviate the batteries sometimes! Other than that thank God for OCLP!!! \o/
Updated to 2.0.2 on my late 2013 iMac 27 to sequoia. Still same problem others seem to be having with no wi-fi. but my ethernet connections works. Thanks
My MacBook Pro 14,1 was on High Sierra Mac OS 10.13. The latest supported Mac OS is Ventura Mac OS 13. Instead of upgrading to Ventura, I instead jumped straight from High Sierra to Sonoma using OCLP. Is that a mistake? Should I have upgraded to Ventura using the conventional upgrading method to make sure I get all the firmware updates from Apple, then use OCLP to upgrade to Sonoma?
I'm running a 2011 iMac 27 with Sequoia and OpenCore 2.02. The video keeps shutting down, randomly, like the screen gone to sleep, but the sound is still running. Pressing the on button repeatedly the video comes back on. I'm also running Windows 11 in Bootcamp and the problem does not occur, so I know it's not a hardware problem with the graphics card (NVIDIA Quadro K1100M) evrything working fine up to Ventura and Sonoma. The problems started when OpenCore upgraded to 2.0.
after installed Sequoia 15.0 do I need to update command line tools for XCODE
Thank you for the update and for the great work you do!
hey im struggling with adding the airplay function on my 2017 4k imac is it possible with this new update?
I've heard that there was an issue with the wifi on the 2017 27" imac with the sequoia install. Can you tell me if they have that resolved with the OCLP 2.0.2?
Still can't get Sequoia dynamic wallpaper working on my MacBook Pro 11,3 just get blue screen though the screen saver is working but looks like it's been magnified x1000. The Macintosh dynamic wallpaper is working fine.
Holding on to Ventura for 2012 MacBook Pro and 2015 27" iMac for the reason that both Sonoma and Sequoia, neither will work with streaming services with Safari. If anyone knows a workaround, I would be all ears for it!
Great video with all detailed explanations. That’s a really great job! Congratulations. However, the additional packages needed for specific models was not clear enough in my opinion and maybe you could endeavor to release an extra video to better explain which one of the provided packages needs to be downloaded and patched. That’s a suggestion. Please don’t take this the wrong way !
So what's the consensus? Is Ventura the best OS to stay on for stability on an older MBP? (2014)
Does the OC patcher installer notify people that the Mac that the patch to be installed onto is too old or may experience severe performance issues?
it works fine in my 2015 macbook pro, the only issue I have is whenever i go to watch a video on fullscreen, the tool bar always appears at the top, can't change the options and its not that bad, but just kinda annoying...
Have Sequoia 15.1 successfully installed on a late 2015 Mac. I need to know how to erase and restore to factory sittings. The Mac/OS gives an error when I try to use erase assistant and gives the error cannot perform this function because the Mac/os has been modified. Is there a provision to erase and restore in the OCLP Sequoia 15.1 build?
2.0.2 fixed the problem I was having with Steam (video card issue, I suppose), but my webcam issue remains (My USB-A camera(s) stopped working after updating to Sequoia (I've actually tried two different cameras that have been working since 2020.).
Progress, I guess.
What USB hubs are you guys using on the older Mac to get keyboard and mouse working? The one I'm using now is no longer working and ive tried 3 other hubs with no success. Is there a specific sort of hub I should be purchasing to be able to get past the logon screen? Thanks for any help you can offer
All ent well on my fleet for this update. Every system from 2007 to 2017 installed the update automatically as intended, The only issues I can report: The App Store App crashes on my 2007 20” iMac. On my 2007 iMac and my 2009 and 2010 13” polycarbonate MacBooks, Pages wont load. It crashes. On the 2007 iMac and 2009 polycarbonate MackBook, Numbers and Keynote crashes. Those two apps run on the 2010 MacBook. The 2007 has 6 Gb; the 2009 has 8 Gb; the 2010 has 16 Gb. Last issue is on Kepler NVIDIA GPU’s, the colorful Sequoia wallpaper wont load properly. Something loads that is predominately blue. The Forest wallpaper and screensaver works. On the older machines, the colorful Sequoia wall paper wont load period - however it loads the forest version. Other than those, all is intensely perfect. I do believe on the 2007 iMac, you can see how the macOS memory management works. It takes a while for the OS to organize itself, but once thats done, the system runs OK and for the apps that work and for web use, it is usable without using swap memory. Amazing. Patience is essential with these older machines.
I read that iPhone Mirroring will not work because it needs M1 chip or T2 Security.
Yes, but note that is where you initiate from the mac and can control the iphone. You can still airplay from the iphone to the mac screen, at least on many models if you just want to show the screen.
So far everything is working fine except there’s one issue which is the wifi 🛜 doesn’t come on when you restart your Mac until you hit the wifi signal
Have they fixed the artifact issues of the AMD drivers in MacPro 2013?
I’ve been playing a bit with my late 2012 Mac mini and pushed it to Ventura which it handles ‘ok’ on the ancient mechanical drive. I boot my iMac to an external ssd but have left it on Monterey it’s a late 2015 anyone updated it to a slightly newer OS with ok results? It has 8gb in that one. Think I’ll likely go for the M4 pro mini if announced - not used any Mac silicone yet.
Will it be possible for OCLP to continue once Apple ceases support for Intel-based Macs?
running this with macOS 15.1 beta 5 on the 2017 MacBook Pro with the infamous touch bar. a single issue is the messaging app that keeps crashing.
Has the Photos app been fixed in this update?
I recognized that with MacOS 15.0 Sequoia the "FindMy Objects" on my 14,2 Mac don't update. People and devices update. OCLP 2.0.2 did not solve this issue. On my iPhone (iOS 18) all works fine.
Thanks for all of the efforts you all do. I delayed my upgrade from Ventura to Sonoma on my 2013 14,3 iMac until yesterday. I upgraded to OCLP 2.0.2 from 2.0.0, then let it sit for a couple of days before doing the upgrade. Today the video is going crazy. I'm getting "flashes" when I move my mouse and when the computer goes to screen saver at 20 minutes it doesn't come out of it. I've had to hard reboot a few times. I don't know if I should try reversing the OCLP video drivers or just go back to Ventura. Any direction on this would be appreciated. In the meantime my windows pc will have to do.
I stumbled upon a reason for the video going crazy. It's my bluetooth "magic" mouse. I turned bluetooth off and used s USB mouse and all is now fixed. For now. I'll be pushing this machine to see if it is more permanent.
A follow-up. After my machine went to sleep, I woke it up with the Apple USB keyboard and the video went nuts again while using the USB mouse. I'm going back to Ventura.
Well, the machine seems stable on Sonoma so I'm leaving it alone. No video problems yet like I had initially (I'm still using a USB mouse, not bluetooth).
Yep. I went back to Ventura. I can't find Pages on my iMac nor on Time Machine, so I went to the app store and Pages won't install on Ventura. I need Sonoma. OY.
My video is really goofy. I'm back on Ventura and the machine is not used much, but when Chrome was open the video went crazy. I wanted to upload a pix but I don't know how.

Any suggestions to resolve a non-working super drive under a dual system on a Mac Pro 3,1 - macOS El Capitan recognizes the drive, and it works? macOS Sonoma under OCLP 2.02 doesn't recognize the drive, and the eject button seems to have been nullified. Thank you.

It appears that OCLP2.0.2 does not allow to "Create macOS Installer" on an empty partition of the external SSD, a process I used when installing Sonoma 14.6. When selecting this external drive, it warns that it erases it all (the current Sonoma is on it!). Is this a feature or a bug?
