Worked perfectly!!! I have to say, this video was the absolute first video that got me success in this process! Everyone else left out the bit about holding the "Option" button upon initial rebooting and that made all of the difference! Thank you for your time and all of your help!!!

Updated my 2013 iMac to Version 14.1 OS. I was about to sell my computer but you saved me. Now I go at it with Adobe Creative. I had so many restrictions before I saw your video and now everything is available. Thank you for your detailed video.

Amazing simple tutorial, took my MacBook Pro Early 2011 to New heights! Works like a bomb. Upgraded my memory from 4GB to 16GB and upgraded to a SSD drive!! Legend!

Long vid but well worth it. I tried other vids but they lacked clarification and OCP kept failing. Great vid!

Thanks a lot I wasn't aware of Mac earlier but still able to upgrade the system because of you thanks a lot and keep it up ❤!!!

Worked flawlessly on my MacBook Pro 8,1 (Late 2011). Thx dude!!!

Hi guys, few days later after the install, I checked the software update section and Mac OS Ventura shows up as available. Not an expert on the subject, but would it be safe to go ahead with the update? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Works like a charm on Late 2012 with 32gb. Thanks you saved me. My m1 24 died two days ago and for fast resolving i restarted 27. Thanks 🎉

Worked amazingly, this is the second time that i install monterey, the first one failed so I had to downgrade to catalina, because the tutorial lasted like 43 minutes and teh guy did a lot of random stuff, monterey that time did not work well, i had stuttering, overheating and the apps didn't work. However with your tutorial, which was short and straight into the point, the install of monterey worked like a charm! Thank you!

Spectacular, this is a tutorial!! without stupid things, straight to the point, congratulations!

How are you, hopefully you can help me out I got everything working perfectly. The only thing that is bothering me is the open court legacy patcher is blocking us to load from system. Recovery, they say that there is a way to unlock this feature. can you please find out and let me know. I am a blind user and can’t find it anywhere.

Very good, clear and steady walkthrough, thanks very much.

Awesome, thank you and thank you to everyone that developed OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Great guide, successfully updated my late 2012 Mac mini to OSx 12.6.1 ... took the entire afternoon as I opted to stick with my 2T drive rather than add an SSD, but have 16GB of RAM and an older Core i7 processor, so it works great for me as my 3rd Mac in the house.

@@Fralibers , I did end up doing a full wipe (after backing up of course) and did a complete fresh install. Now that OCLP 1.0.1, it resolved the Bluetooth not working issue. However, the assigned keyboard functions, such as the volume buttons don't work and I can't find an option in settings to resolve this. The other issue I'm having, is that when I open Photos and the click on a picture to edit, the picture goes blank. I can see them fine in the thumbnail preview but they won't open (I use Google Photos to navigate around that issue). In hindsight, I probably should have tried installing Monterey, as I believe it's more stable on my iMac model. Besides, those two issues, I'm satisfied because having the enhanced security features/patches is worth it...I think LOL

Hi great video and something that works when my IT said that my office mac could not be upgraded. 👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you! This finally worked for me!!

A great tutorial. Have been nervous about installing this on my 2010 macbook pro for a while, but having watched your video took the plunge as it was so clear. Could have put Sonoma on, but I think that maybe pushing this old mac to far and was more interested in having functional mac that would run newer apps than the latest for the sake of it, so installed Monteray I am sure the Opencore boffins have ironed out most of the issues with this version. Works a treat, the only issue so far being that Maps opens but does note display a map. Seems this is because it needs a Metal GPU for this function to work so may be unresolvable, but defo worth the sacrifice for other apps I can now use. Thanks again. Clive
