Hi Jessie Another brilliant video from you! Highly interesting and very informative and educational! Today, after updating the OpenCore patcher from 1.5 to 2.0.1, I set up Sequoia on my Late 2015 on Sonoma without any problems! Absolutely without any problem!!! SUPER! My conclusion: If the previous MacOS (in my case Sonoma) is already running flawlessly under OpenCore Patcher, updating to the successor OS is absolutely no problem. At least in my case! Thanks again Jessie for your huge commitment! BTW are you German? 🙂

Thanks for the great videos. Macbook Pro 2015 here working happily. One tip I'd pass on (you mentioned it last year sometime) - if the apple logo and loading bar freezes, power it down and reboot. hold the shift key to load in safe mode. then completes without a problem.

[@BusakornWeng]

Thank you for providing the method. I bought a Macbook Pro in 2012 and will try it when I have time. I saw an article on the preview screen of KZbin, a video about hacking Apple, and then after seeing your video, I thought about it carefully and found that the real goal of Microsoft's push for AI PC is to have one more button and the MacOS keyboard button below Shift FN, Control, Option, and Command are the same. Secondly, the Apple M series is an ARM architecture. Assuming that future desktop hosts will be structured in line with Microsoft's AI PC definition, that is, Apple's MacOS can be installed.

Just a heads up, I have Sequoia running on my m1 imac and my 2011 27 inch imac. I am now able to successfully mirror both ways receiver and sender with zero hardware upgrades or cables. I think it maxes out at 1080p on one or both screens, ill have to do more testing, but this was not available to me before. Kind of a big deal for those wanting to save their older macs and still use the screen real estate. The 2011 does run excellent though with the ssd upgrade.

Thank you! Great work. I have however been unable to get HDCP content, specifically from Amazon Prime video, playing in HD through a web browser (Safari, Chrome, and Firefox have been tried). I have two 2012 mac minis plugged directly into different TVs. I've tried various HDMI cables and different browsers, still no joy. I've not tried an OS without OCLP yet, but at this point I am speculating that it is because of the OCLP driver that is being injected. On my 2012 and 2015 Macbook pros running OCLP, HDCP content is fine on the laptop screen, but can't get HDCP content playing on external screens either using these devices. Given my experiences, I was expecting to find lots about it online, but there is surprisingly nothing I can find about this issue.

Thank you so much again for your wonderul work Jessy! I have couple questions here: 1. I think from previous Ventura, the OCLP used to be automatically detect the required KDK when upgrading to newer macOS. Does this mean now we need to download manually for Sequoia? 2. What if I prefer to just install from scratch to a new separated SSD? Will I just need to update OCPLP from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1, then manually download and install the required KDK support package & MetalLib support package, then create macOS Sequoia Installer via OCLP 2.0.1?

Dear Jessie, hope you're fine! Jessie, I followed all your instructions to prepare download of macOS 15. I actualized OCLP on 2.0.1 and installed KDK as well as Metallib on my MBP (End 2013). Notification came as under General/Software download available but unfortunately macOS 15 didn't appear. I tried also via Apple Store to install macOS 15, but also here it failed to download. Can you give me advice of how to download and install successfully? Thans a lot!

hi Jessie, habe auf einem 27" iMac aus 2013, 3.2 Ghz, 16gb Ram, 1gb Graphics Seqoia 15.0 installiert. Hat relative gut funktioniert....KDK kicken the white off the screen.. der iMac brauchte ca 2 Minuten zu kompletten Hochfahren.... Danach ging es relativ zügig.... aber mir nicht gut genug.... deshalb downgrade auf Sonoma 14.7 Das Funzt... super ! Natürlich haben alle 3 iMacs Sonoma drauf mit OCLP 201 und funktionieren perfekt. Mein MacBook Pro 15" aus 2014 rennt wie bekloppt und der 5K 27" iMac aus 2015 ist noch schneller.... GOOOOOOD JOOOOB....I appreciate.... David vs Goliath....

[@MohamedMoolla]

@@JessiesFlying been running for a few hours and I see a few bugs here and there. Thought I would list them 1. Background wallpaper does not update when a new one is chosen. I had to log out and in for changes to happen 2. Sometimes the dock disappears. The usual terminal line for resetting the dock has zero effect . This one is strange because this OS SHOULD run on the same base language as the previous OS defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '{tile-data={}; tile-type="spacer-tile";}' 3. Cannot mirror screen from my iPhone. 13 Pro MAX or 15 Pro Max. I am assuming this is because of the legacy Bluetooth and WiFi cards on the 5.1s . I have left these standard 4. A tad bit sluggish on the GUI but this was from the previous version as well. GTX 580 and GTx590 (both 8 gigs) 5. Thermals are slightly higher than previous but I am putting this down to initial indexing. Sonoma idle (42-45 Celsius) Sequoia idle (46-51 Celcius) Will test further after full indexing That’s all for now folks. Will keep updating

[@MohamedMoolla]

All stable. Temps are fine. GUI speed is great. No issues. All settled after indexing completed. Looking very stable now
