FYI: Solve for a Problem I Had Near the End First, thanks Matt. Even five months later I was able to use this comprehensive tutorial to upload Ventura on my mid-2011 iMac. I ran into one problem which I think was a tiny oversight or just part of one of the more recent updates maybe. The Problem: At the very end I got a second pop up for moving the open core to the hard disk, the same way it happens here 24:22. Any restart would happen from the flash and prompt that pop up again. If I removed the flash a restart would go to my hard disk without the EFI and I’d have to do a hard reset because it wasn’t recognizing any operating system on the hard disk. Here’s the fix: Put the flash back in and restart, letting the Mac restart to the EFI on the flash. Then follow the steps as Matt prompts at 21:58 to 23:18. THIS TIME, hold down option on the reboot. (If you read the reboot screen it tells you to do that, you won’t believe how many times I couldn’t get this because I just never read it 🤦🏾‍♀️) Now pick the EFI that’s on your hard disk (make sure you don’t confuse it with the EFI from your flash or the hard disk itself). Then that’s it. It’ll start up as normal and you shouldn’t get the pop up again. Then you can safely remove your flash and you’ll never need it to start up again. You will not need to press option on the next restart either, it’ll automatically start up on the EFI from the hard disk. I hope this helps anyone having the same issue. Sorry if someone else already explained this, I couldn’t find a comment that did. But either way, it’s engagement for Matt. 😂 Thanks again for this tutorial Matt. Open Core can be intimidating for a layman if you venture on your own. I thought my mid-2011 was a paperweight but it’s almost like brand new! ❤

[@MassageGrottoSF]

Thanks for this. I am having a similar problem. However, at the end of supposedly moving the open core to the hard disk a pop up appeared for just a moment and before I could do anything with it, the screen started to load again. I am an absolute layman. But, it seems like it just automatically rebooted. So, I didn't have an option to hold option during the second reboot. If it happens again I may remove the USB and try again - but holding the option key when rebooting from the efi on the hard disk (hopefully its there). thanks.

[@alexzhukovsky2132]

I have MacBook Pro (Mid 2015) and this video was very helpful. For those of you who have same laptop I suggest follow same steps and install first latest version of the Monterey OS, then after you finish the installation, your laptop should detect that there is a Ventura macOS update, so just install it naturally through the update. Thanks for the video, Matt, it was very helpful.

[@ThePeter567]

Then your laptop is officially supported, meaning there is no need to do any of these steps. Weird though, since I thought Ventura couldn't officially be supported on devices released before 2017

Great instructions. I successfully installed Ventura on my late 2015 iMac, but for some reason, it will not boot up without the USB installer stick inserted in one of the USB ports. Is this normal? Once I put the stick in, it gives me the option to boot up either from the internal HD, or the USB stick. It boots completely normal into Ventura on the internal drive, and once booted up, I can remove the stick. It just seems to need the stick in there. Just wondering if this is normal behavior, or I screwed something up when trying do the installation??

[@TheVideojuan]

Booting without USB drive Download OpenCore Legacy Patcher Change Patcher settings as you'd like •Build OpenCore again •Install OpenCore to internal drive instead of the USB Reboot holding Option, and select the internal EFI

[@steve6rocks11]

Hope this is useful, at 21:55 he gets the pop up to install the patches that allow you to boot up without usb stick. I never got that pop up, so I had to open the OpenCore app again. Once at the main menu, click Build and Install OpenCore - the same thing you did to install it on the USB originally, but this time on the hard drive: Then go back to the video where Matt left off after he clicks OK on the pop up - and you should be at the same spot where you can follow exactly what he does.

[@ThePeter567]

Maybe you might want to reinstall it from the USB stick. The USB stick contains necessary boot files that aren't on your computer yet. When you first installed Ventura, there should have been a windows that showed up that would install those files from the USB stick to the computer, but maybe you closed the window by accident. There might be a way to get these files onto the Mac from the USB stick without reinstalling, but I don't know how to do that yet.

[@janko.9513]

It's the same for me. At the very end, the last step was omitted, the window that should pop up does not pop up by itself, and therefore the booting is not good. I don't know what the solution could be.

[@santiagogarzon5228]

SAME HERE, please help

[@joelhistory]

Took four hours, but easy to follow steps and jolly pleased

[@nicolascindric9050]

why so long? I am doing it on a mini 6.2 but it stays stuck on a restart at some point and the screen slightly flickers...then screen is black and then goes again on the same progress level withiout making progress....any experience like this that it was taking 4 hours???

[@genemcloud4114]

Hey Matt, I'm a bit stuck at the moment. I have Ventura loading from my USB but have failed to get it on my SSD. Do you mind walking me through what to do at this point? Thanks, Gene

[@tonywright8342]

I have the same issue, have tried reinstalling still not working. I don't get the popup at the end that asks about booting from your computer hard drive.

[@ubernuub3185]

I have the same problem.

@12:37, my computer does not find the USB stick, but instead states, Missing drives? Ensure they’re 14GB+ and removable/ No Disk Found- Return to main menu! I cannot proceed without this portion being corrected, please help

After spending a whole day finally i did it on my mid 2012 macbook pro Thanks a lot man ❤

[@racheldimattia433]

Any issues since doing this? I’ve got a mid 2012 MacBook Pro myself I want to do this on but I’m afraid 👀

[@janbaukespoelstra6839]

Well i installed Ventura on a Macbook pro from 2010😂 it worked but at this point never call Apple Support because they do not believe that this is possible😅but it is !😅

[@eclipsenkasi]

I hardly ever comment on KZbin be i had to cuz this video was such a lifesaver. Thank you 🙏🏾

[@andrewyu5198]

This is great! i just did it.

[@axxelgannon9146]

On which model?

[@MattTalkTech]

Awesome! What Mac do you have?

[@KehindeAyansina]

This worked perfectly. Took a while but worked perfectly following each steps. Thanks a bunch! Mac looks and works great!!

[@michaelalvarado5057]

I’m actully suprised because my very old MacBook Pro is the exact same model, same year, same specifications, same everything lol

[@MattTalkTech]

Cool, then you will know it will work

[@fbruno01810]

It works like a charm and IF YOU FOLLOW step by step the instructions you will have Ventura on a MacBook Air (2017)

[@dcpose]

Hey guys! I've noticed that Ventura is a bit slower than Monterey when it comes to opening folders, apps, and other tasks. Additionally, I've had some issues with the Wi-Fi tab in the system settings - sometimes it appears, and other times it doesn't. However, overall the system is working well on my mid-2010 Mac Pro."

[@dantefoster3806]

Yeah I just got it too it doesn’t let me turn it on

[@LovelyBlazingRush]

@@dantefoster3806 did you forget any steps?

[@dantefoster3806]

@@LovelyBlazingRush naw I did it right only thing I could think it’s well be because i didn’t have a ssd but other than that I don’t know why but only thing’s that doesn’t work is WiFi and hdmi

[@loickzoccola2183]

Thank you very much for this tutorial. Just done on an iMac 27" Late 2012. Followed step-by-step.

[@TonySoltow]

I love you Matt. Now I don't have to get a new mac to be able to run logic.

[@franknuninga]

Worked like a charm, thank you very much! (MacBook Pro late 2013, i7, 8GB,256 GB).

[@gushilin]

I appreciate your video, it cleared up a bunch of uncertainty I had. Because all I had to do was follow your video.

[@tameral-kassimi6647]

Nice and clear. Thanks so much for this good step by step upgrade :)

[@benzyoutubepremiumaccount4520]

Thank you very much for solid step from start to end. I do love my iMac Late 2012 more more.

[@ncbus336]

It was well worth the wait! My iMac works great!

[@adnilsonmedina]

Amazing Tutorial... Thank you so much, you helped me a lot. Just one question: After I installed the Ventura, in the end, should I run "Post Install OpenCore" ???

[@Adrian.M149]

Great content and great explanation! Thank you! Did it myself, and worked like a charm.

[@LuisFernando-zo5yi]

Thanks Matt, it was so easy to upgrade my Mac 2012, you're the man! Direct from Brazil

[@siprior7393]

Matt that was an amazing step by step.... my MBP 2012 is now a new machine thnks to you,.,. cheers

[@decm8]

Thanks so much man, I literally only use my mb Pro to play music into my stereo and it was telling me chrome wasn't getting security updates anymore, now I can continue and feel secure!

[@ello_ello_]

went into an indie mac shop and wS told installing ventura on my mid 2012 pro would ruin the computer . no further explanation given . thoughts? cheers

[@rogermckay9544]

Great video, Does this process delete all other existing applications as well as personal files i.e Documents, pictures, video, downloads etc or are these all retained?

[@sudhirshet]

Thanks a lot Matt, it worked like a charm on my 2015 MBP. Though it took 2 long hours, the end result was satisfying. Let me use this for a while and comment later here in case i find any issues.

[@thecodewhiz526]

How is it now?

[@sudhirshet]

@@thecodewhiz526 it's working well! Thank you for checking

And ?

[@mofrehsarhan5470]

Hello Matt Thank you so much for your informative and easy to follow video , Excellent work ,I have followed your step by step and I have Catalina up and running on MacBook Pro mid 09 and I take the courage to do the same steps with Monterey and it is working charm Thank you so much for your time and your hard work and advises

[@JayMoney-mq6bs]

I'm on the GitHub website on my MacBook Pro 2012 Retina display and the links won't load. I scroll down to the assets tab and there's no visible links it just shows its loading. Any idea what’s wrong

[@turkergencoglu8056]

Thanks Matt..i upgraded my mac mini 2012(late, İ7).everything worked great

[@charley6307]

Hello buddy i have the same mac,Is it possible to upgrade from High Sierra to ventura directly.Happy to hear your feedback

[@turkergencoglu8056]

hi@@charley6307.. my operating system was catalina...first it was mountain lion and i upgraded it to catalina..i think you must upgrade to catalina..If your macmini doesn't allow upgrading, you can try the upgrade process explained by Matt..It's worth trying..Because when you use Matt's method, you trick the computer into making it upgradeable..If you dont have important information in your macmini, it is useful to try this method..
