My OpenCore Legacy Patcher video is here! You asked for it and waited months for this video and it's finally here. The fact that OpenCore Legacy Patcher now supports Beta Graphics Acceleration for 2008-2011 Macs is huge news! I've been running Big Sur using open core for a bit now and it's running great! Let me know if you have any questions!

Hello, very clear description of how to do it. So far I was able to follow up completely. Unfortunately my audio recording apps "Cubase, Nuendo and Wavelab" do not get access to the microphone. I tried out all troubleshooting hints, but none of it worked. If I go to security and click on microphone: 1. there is no icon infront of the microphone tab. 2. no applications are listed access being granted. 3. Impossible to add any application to it. :( I have a 17" Macbook Pro from 2011) As I cannot fix it, I am already considering to go back to Catalina or even Mojave, where most of my older applications are working fine. So any idea for that issue??? Thanks a lot!

Thank you very much. Another successful upgrade to an early 2011 MacBook Pro. What a blessing! I also thank those responsible for doing this for free, because of their love for diving in deep, and then serving us. Thanks again.

Your step by step was so easy and clear, even learned some new stuff with this video too, I'm running 11.4 and because i am a beta tester the OTA recognizes that and shows that i can download and install macOS Big Sur 11.5 Beta!

Good morning Mr Macintosh. I am writing to thank you for such a fantastic video and precise set of instructions. I followed your instructions to the letter with great success and I now have Monterey on a late 2012 Imac and it works so well. I used an external SSD and I could not be more pleased. Thank you sir from the United Kingdom.

Thanks very much for this video. I had been trying many other methods from around KZread and kept running into issues. Your explanation is perfectly clear and straightforward.

This is absolutely excellent - you are a master of explaining things simply and efficiently, thank you!

Very clear instruction! After flashing my GPU BIOS, using this tutorial I am able to get Big Sur and brightness control on my 2011 21.5' iMac. Btw, not until I changed by drive format to APFS, I couldn't proceed with the install so if you have the error of "You may not install to this volume because the computer is missing a firmware partition", you can try that.

I just finished this with my mid 2012 MBPro and it's working like a dream. I had to update so I could run FCP - if this hadn't worked I literally had no other option other than buy a new MacBook; you've saved me a fortune. My system is running 16GB with a 1TB SSD. Everything has passed into Big Sur smoothly including custom keyboard shortcuts and mouse settings. Thank you SO MUCH. I spent a working day trying to this via other more outdated methods. Advice to anyone doing the same - follow his instructions to the letter. It's tedious but I tried to skip ahead, made a couple of mistakes and ending up wasting more time than if I'd just paid due attention from the get go.

@stepper6643

2 жыл бұрын

is it working still today?

I have several things to say: 1. Running Big Sur can be quite resource consuming for an old Mac, so you should absolutely clean install, meaning you save your data and format the internal drive as APFS before installing. 2. 4GB of RAM is OK, you don't need 8GB like the video says. However, if you have only 2GB, do not install Big Sur unless you can upgrade your RAM. That's why the 2008-2009 macbook airs and maybe other models that are stuck to 2GB of RAM aren't really supported as the website says. It will work but I would highly recommend that you don't patch these, as the performance under Mojave that is fine with 2GB of RAM are already really poor. 3. An SSD is not exactly needed, I already installed Big Sur to a USB 3.0 external hard drive and it runs fast enough. What is important is that you clean install and to use a SATA 6 Gb/s 7200RPM drive if possible (or even better, an SSD) Having one of those three features for the drive would already be great!

Thank you so much !!!

Disconnected battery from MB and sure enough..... installation went through OK. Reconnected battery after setup; all good now. Just throwing this out for those that might face this issue. Disconnect battery, install and patch per the guide and then reconnect battery. Good luck !

Glad to help! Arjun!!

Mr MacIntosh you life saver you. Followed this to the letter and installed it on my Mid 2011 MBP which I pimped out a bit with a 16GB RAM, 1TSSD and 500GB HDD backup drive. My USB ports failed so I used the HDD as the install drive.

thank you for the help needed big sur for logic

Ok I admit it! I jumped ahead and installed Monterey on a 2012 iMac. I did have to patch it for performance. But man! It runs pretty good. I cannot express my thanks to Mr. Macintosh. It is great you do this too keep us in the game on these older Mac. I have a 2013 MBP to upgrade too. :)

Josh - what OS did you update from. Did you do an update, or wipe and fresh install, and I assume you did it with OCLP? Thanks.

Hi and thank you so much for this. I’ve got this working perfectly on Mac Pro 5.1. Did need it use switchresx to change the colours. Have all the protections disabled but the moment I swap out my HD5770 for my K4200 the system won’t boot to the logon screen. It’s definitely a mental GPU as using it on Mojave. Installed the additional drivers too and didn’t work.

Thanks you so much I was getting so annoyed because a lot of the other ones didn’t work so thank you

thanks I was looking for this particular info
