Update of macOS is stuck? Here is a solution!

[@java2architect]

Dude, you are a lifesaver. I ran into this problem with OCLP 1.3 and Sonoma 14.2. I normally wait for a while before upgrading but decided to be reckless. Safe Mode did the trick for me. Had to do it 3 times. but eventually finished, then again in Safe mode had to install the root patches. Next boot without Safe Mode, it was stuck and I was about to power cycle, when suddenly the bar shot forward and now I am running 14.2 on my Macbook air. Salute 🖖

[@JessiesFlying]

great!

I am stuck on the progress bar, and i installed the oclp in safe mode, still stuck what to do?

[@bencolemanjr]

Holding down shift and booting into safe mode worked for me. I had updated using the System Settings, instead of the previous times using OCLP to patch first. Thanks.

[@JessiesFlying]

[@ProductionTheOne]

Sonoma 14.1 works very well on my Mac Pro 5.1. Right after installing OCLP 1.1, I upgraded the Mac OS and during the system installation the process stopped. I restarted the Mac by holding the "option" button and when the startup screen appeared, I selected "EFI Boot". The Mac turned on again and the installation process was completed. After installation, bluetooth and wifi did not work as usual. Using a cable keyboard, I did "Post-Install Root Patch" in OCLP 1.1 and everything works fine

[@JessiesFlying]

Thx for the info

With what graphics card? For me on 5.1 with rx580 it works great but with rx5700xt the progress bar stands every time. 🤨

[@JessiesFlying]

It really depends how old your machinery is

[@dmccoyny]

I can confirm that this works! My mid-June 2012 MBP is now running Sonoma 14.4, w/ OCLP 1.4.3, successfully. It was stuck on the Apple logo screen, but I rebooted and selected the EFI boot drive + Shift and it finally finished and booted up! Then I just patched the MBP boot drive, and now it's fully functional. Thank you!

[@Ink_and_Motion_Studio]

After rebooting, selecting the OCLP EFI, and reaching the MacOS HD selection screen, press and hold the space bar and after a few moments you should see additional options to boot from, including the "Reset NVRAM" executable. Select it and proceed as indicated from there.

[@JessiesFlying]

Resetting NVRAM doesn’t help here

[@Ink_and_Motion_Studio]

@@JessiesFlying I didn't say that was THE solution. In the video, it was suggested trying it to see if it helps users be able to conitinue the upgrade or a reboot into safe mode. I only gave an easier alternative on how to do such task which is simpler than doing a multi-button combo press which varies depending on the hardware kb you have. Everyone has a spacebar and that tid-bit of info isn't as easily found online by newcomers to Mac's.

[@JessiesFlying]

@@Ink_and_Motion_Studio ah, now I got your point. You’re right, but if you don’t have the OpenCore installed (yet) you still need the keyboard combo…

Thanks! Fixed. Just used these tips (PAM/NVRAM) on my White 2010 macbook 7,1, which stuck doing an update from Ventura straight to Sonoma 14.2! Going like a real champ with 16GB ram and 4TB ssd. I also used a USB hub and external keyboard until my root patches were in.

This happened to my late '13 MBP. I hadn't even updated yet. Was still on 14.0. Only updated OCLP to 1.21, updated root patch in preparation for the upgrade and got stuck after restart. Tried everything. Ended up creating a new partition on the internal SSD, installing there using a Sonoma USB I'd already created, installing OCLP 1.3 and restoring to the new partition. Long process but worked for me.

[@songsan807]

Thanks for a great troubleshooting video. Had this same stuck screen issue and could not bypass it. Didn't know about the safe mode. Using that helped me bypass the issue and go to the login screen. Out of curiosity I used the Cmd + V to output the verbose information and my issue seemed to be something with some bluetooth drivers. After reapplying the OCLP post patch that fixed the issue.

It worked on my MacBook Pro 2012 too. After it got stuck with the progress bar at about one third, rebooting manually to the efi boot and then booting into safe mode, checking if Sonoma 14.1 was installed (yes!), opening Open Core patcher and installing the root patches and after another reboot everything seems to be fine

[@chapeaubay]

How do you reboot “manually”? I am frustrated as any recommendation given here fails to get me beyond the “log in page”! I also don’t make it with the “shift” pressing into safe boot. Anything else I could “press” to get the system running?

[@patrick-jefferson]

Hi @chapeaubay ​, with rebooting 'manually' I meant a hard reboot. Then you select the efi boot and when you get the selection of boot drives (like Macintosh HD) you select the boot drive while holding the shift key and then press enter. If your Mac keyboard (built-in or bluetooth) doesn't do that you should you could use a usb keyboard. I hope that will help get it fixed

Big Bug; seen by many too. we been multi boot for years both internal and external drive with different OS x version. Sonoma put a wrinkle in this by altering or updating the older os x version to sonoma without asking or initiating the update. A back up of profile was done so no data loss, but issue is we didn't want sonoma on the drive yet and it cause a failure to boot finding that the target drive was no report a version 14 and not the version that was installed and the boot failed. Because you can not downgrade only option was to do clean format and install. only for it to happen yet again. As of 2024 no solution found. This reminds of us Apple and forcing U2 music to every device purchase by the public whether the want it or not.

Could you install the root patches? I don’t recommend Macs older than 2012 for Sonoma. Maybe try USB keyboard

[@marklochan3809]

Thank you sir for your video. I got stuck install Sonoma 14.1 on a 2012 MacBook Pro 13” 🙏

[@alBngnnuyn8070]

I didn't get stuck during the update and I was using the open core legacy 1.2.1. However, I couldn't login to my Apple account after everything was set up.

[@JessiesFlying]

[@fauzanMBc]

[@JessiesFlying]

👍

[@shaaawwwww]

how about recovering the old version of the software MacBook. Thank you

[@JessiesFlying]

@@shaaawwwww keep CMD+R pressed

[@alterramoda5821]

Safe mode does not always work. You may have to boot from latest bootable snapshot to finish installation.

[@JessiesFlying]

Already working on that video 😬

[@beforesunsetboxing6017]

I have a MacBook Air 2018, which should be fully supported by Sonoma, and still got stuck on the update... Why would Apple allow an update to run that is not compatible?

[@JessiesFlying]

might be a hardware issue as well or your system was corrupted in any way before.... try CMD+R and reinstall it

[@MrRafafafafafafafa]

When I install the post-install forma OpenCore, is when i cant use the sistem ti gets stucked in the progress bar

[@JessiesFlying]

Did you install the appropriate KDK before applying the root patch?

[@sebastiaamengualobrador1448]

Hello! I just installed an update while on the desktop of my MBP 2014. The update seemed correct, but after typing my password the loading bar is not completed… I tried to use a new usb with a newer Sonoma version and the error is the same. I would appreciatte any help! Thanks for your videos 👌🏽

[@JessiesFlying]

Do you have FileVault activated?

[@ploesti1943]

Hello Jessie, I followed your instructions but still don't have graphic support for MBP 11,4 mid 2015. after following your instructions in this video and the previous Sonoma installation video

[@msurfer30]

Did you patch system by OpenCore Patcher? I had the same (white screen and slow motion mouse) plus problem with WiFi conection for OpenCore Patcher (computer had connection all the time, expect patcher) on Mac 11.5 (early Pro 2015). After installing patcher version 1.1 Patcher could connected to net and patch system perfectly.

[@ploesti1943]

I had done that but no luck @@msurfer30

[@anupammahato1]

Open core patcher shows, cant open th pe application, because it may be damaged or incomplete, what should i do?

[@JessiesFlying]

Download it again

[@itzamit]

Thanks but unable to do any of the following methods you shared. Can you please help?

[@JessiesFlying]

I need more info then

[@sakcruise]

I did all the things, but now it’s getting hanged while logging in also Wi-Fi is not showing any networks

[@JessiesFlying]

Did you try NVRAM reset already?

[@johnmartial3899]

My MacBook Pro is stuck on enter password en both the keyboard and touchpad are not responding not even external keyboard but this happened after updating to Sonoma

[@JessiesFlying]

@@johnmartial3899 does the keyboard work at the boot selector?

[@ZariyaJ]

Hi guys quick question I need help! So I have the macbook pro 2012 15’ and I’m trying to download the monterey. But everytime I try to download to my hard drive it gets stuck in the middle and never installs and it’s like I’m going through this loop. I tried the NVRAM reset but then afterwards it would show up a circle with a line through it. So I powered it off pressed options to get back to the screen of trying to download Monterey on my harddrive and it’s still not installing. Even the shift and enter doesn’t help. Any suggestions??

[@JessiesFlying]

Create a USB drive and install from there

[@ZariyaJ]

@@JessiesFlying yeah I did it from the usb and used the oclp but I think it’s working now the start up desktop finally showed up and I’m just now transferring my files. Thankyou tho!😮‍💨

[@JessiesFlying]

@@ZariyaJ 🚀

[@ZariyaJ]

@@JessiesFlyingQuick question when you did the safe boot did you press anything after that or you just let it restart?

[@JessiesFlying]

@@ZariyaJ safe boot is keeping space pressed while selecting the boot option. Then you can release space key…

[@DaliakaBayaCash]

Hi Jessie, i have a problem... After the installation everything went fine except that I can not log in. This is the problem. I only have 1 second to log in then the screen goes black and comes back again. My password disappears and have to wait to input it again. I tried USB keyboard as wel and safe mode nothing works... In the safe mode the same problem. Please help...

[@JessiesFlying]

I would need more info about your Mac

[@DaliakaBayaCash]

It is an Imac 2015 Retina 5K , I7 4.0. 32 GB , 500 GB SSD , 4GB R9 M395 X AMD Radeon Sonoma 14.1 @@JessiesFlying Thnx in Advance my dear friend....

[@JessiesFlying]

@@DaliakaBayaCash so did this start after installing root patch or before?

[@DaliakaBayaCash]

it all started after the patch.... thnx

[@JessiesFlying]

@@DaliakaBayaCash so safe mode doesn’t help either?

[@dezoveelsteJaap]

can't get it to boot in save mode holding shift key or shift + enter or both shift keys or what ever key's

[@JessiesFlying]

Are you sure the keyboard is recognized during boot? Did you try USB keyboard?

[@realStefanLowe]

This did not work for me. I was able to start the machine in 14.1 but with no internet access. Using MacBook Air 2013. Had to go go back to 14.0

[@JessiesFlying]

Wait for next video 😬☝️

[@avaxyt]

Hello you can tell me pls what can I do if it’s still stuck on Apple bar after I chose the efi boot ? Ok MacBook Air 13 2009 Thanks you so much

[@JessiesFlying]

What macOS?

[@00yomismo]

Hello! I can’t patch post install due “Library validation is enabled”. What’s the solution for this?

[@JessiesFlying]

Maybe you have to lower security settings (boot in recovery and lower them)…?

[@aicreepytalks]

I purchased new MacBook Air M1 yesterday. today I update it stuck on preparing mode 30 min.

[@JessiesFlying]

But that’s nothing related with OpenCore as it’s a supported model

[@aicreepytalks]

@@JessiesFlying Thanks for your reply I am just worried .Now it has updated❤
