OpenCore Legacy Patcher n’accepte plus de dons et prépare sa fin

OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) se prépare à sa fin, comme le signale le refus des nouveaux dons. Ce projet né de l’univers du hackintosh permet d’installer des versions récentes de macOS sur des Mac qu’Apple ne prend plus en charge. Au fil des mise...

Mal by som otázku na miestne osadenstvo. Viem, že na Mastodone fičí prevažne Linux, ale možno sa tu nájde aj nejaký používateľ #MacOS.

Otázka znie, či má niekto skúsenosť s #OpenCoreLegacyPatcher (https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/). Môj MacBook má totiž už 10 rokov, aktualizácie nedostávam už niekoľko rokov, takže môj systém je značne zastaraný. Zatiaľ to výrazne problémy nerobí, ale čoskoro zrejme bude, keďže aplikácie prestanú podporovať moju verziu systému.

Narazil som na túto možnosť aktualizovať macOS na nové verzie, ale mám celkom obavy sa do toho pustiť, pretože by som si nechcel zase znefunkčniť notebook (a verím, že pri mojom šťastí by sa to stalo).

Now why the hell would I no longer be able to log into an iMac?!

It's just great that there is no way to see the typed password, to rule out keyboard language issues.

Tried several keyboard language options

Recovery key also not accepted.

Using a password manager to store both informations. Oh boy, here goes my TODO list for today... 🙄

Well I might be fucked... This is after successfully booting into 15.7.2 (at least once).

So this is the beginning of the end of the full usefulness of my late 2013 27" iMac. With OpenCore Legacy Patcher, Ventura runs quite well, but:

- The latest version of Davinci Resolve requires at least Sonoma and
- Sonoma support for OpenCore Legacy patcher has some weird deficiencies, such as: "Cannot edit photos in Portrait mode in Apple Photos on nvidia Kepler graphics hardware."

Oddly specific, but a showstopper for me.

So I cannot use both Photos and the latest Davinci Resolve version. Photos has always had the right balance of simplicity and power for me. It's there and it "just works".

12 years was a pretty good run.

Today I managed to update a 2011 macbook air from El Capitan to Sonoma!

Its faster, and it can safely browse the web again!

I can still do almost everything just fine with my Late 2013 27" iMac, thanks to the (at the time) top-of-the-line model, and OpenCore Legacy Patcher, which allows me to use almost-current macOS versions with all security updates.

Even #Reaper with tons of plugins and DaVinci Resolve still work great.

Two points will make me upgrade in the near future, though:
* X-Plane 12 won't run, because it needs a more recent Metal version, which the hardware doesn't support, and
* #NeatVideo denoising takes ages, but it does such a marvellous job for low-light footage from my almost-as-old DSLR.

Comment installer des versions récentes de macOS (comme Monterey, Ventura, Sonoma) sur des Mac de 2008-2019 qui sont normalement exclus par Apple ?
OpenCore Legacy Patcher !

Je viens d'installer Ventura sur un mac book air 13 pouces debut 2015.
On passe d'un macOS 10.12 (Sierra) à un macOS 13 (Ventura)
Et en plus, c'est assez simple a faire.
Il faut de l'espace disk pour les sauvegardes et du temps.
