    After hours of research over a few weeks, this is so far one of the most comprehensive streamlined video on how to step by step upgrade to a new OS on a unsupported Macintosh device. And without interruption of selling points, ads or links. Thank you, Great job!

    Hi, very amazing tutorial - I am seriously thinking about upgrading my MacBook Air 2017 to at least to Ventura - it is sad that having Monterey I cannot download Keynote :(
    But I have limited internet data transfer - will 20 gb of internet be enough to do whole process ?

    Hi,
    I've seen quit a lot of these install sytems with OpenCore Legacy software on youtube, but...
    I wonder what all this does with the rest of the software already installed (on the previous os)
    and software (for example Logic installed on Big Sur).
    How to handle the upgrade proces without loosing (older versions of) software.
    Thanks.

However, on the last step before complete installation a black screen came up with a mouse image and images from the side of my MacBook and underneath is stated apple/Mac support (something like that).
    How do l complete the install? Any ideas?

    Hi Amit, thanks for your clear and instructive video. I would like to follow and upgrade .
    I am running MBP 10.1 (mid 2012) with Big Sur 11.7.10 (OCLP) installed.2.7 quad core i7, 16 gb mem
    The machine has 2 video cards: Intel HD graphics 4000 and NVIDEA GeForce GT 65M.
    The latter may present an issue. When I tried to upgrade to Ventura, it didn't work well, the text was even too small to read and it was not adjustable. My question is: would it also be an issue when installing Sonoma?

    • @ajiyusliana
      @ajiyusliana 10 місяців тому

      I think Yes, it's because mac computer 2012 or older doesn't have metal GPU like earlier mac, exceptionally for mac pro or all mac computer that can be upgrade with metal GPU

    • @lance3681
      @lance3681 9 місяців тому

      it is metal compatible but both video cards are not compatible with macOS higher then Big Sur. So I will not get a good resolution with readable text

    Thanks a lot for video. Just those "realtime" word by word subtitles realy sucks. I dont get it, why they are so popular now. You have to watch them all the time to do not miss something, but then you cant concentrate to other visual content (screens, buttons). If subtitles was as whole sentences, it will be much more reading friendly. Sorry for my english, hope you will understand point of my comment :)
