iPhone 16 Behaving Strangely After Update to 18.1
by Guest /u/Few_Razzmatazz5493- 0 replies
- 12 views
I have an iPhone 16 running 18.1 - The odd behavior starting during the update, I downloaded 18.1 and started the update, the bar got just about to the end then stopped. 3 hours later I force shut down and re-started. Everything was working fine (I thought) so off I went. But, over the last month off things have started to pop up. The ringer will go on silent without me setting it to do so. I use the time frequently and suddenly when the timer is done nothing happens, no alarm sound - it just stops. I have *lots* of apps and I usually wait until 150-300 need updating, never a problem in the past. Now, about 50 update and it just stops. I changed the wallpaper to my fiance…

Hey Folks— I am trying and failing to get a cMP 12x2.66GHz running macOS 12.7.x Monterey to work reliably with a brand new Insignia F30 43" Smart Fire TV via Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580. I have tried using all 4 non-DVI ports— the two HDMI ports and the two DP ports via HDMI adapter. I have injected Enable GOP into the Mac Pro firmware, so I do get a boot screen on this RX 580**. Here's what I observe: The problem is that the computer thinks the display is there, but I only ever get... Read more Source: MacRumors

Accelerated fans Mac Pro 5.1
by Guest MBolsarini- 0 replies

Hello, I have a 2009 Mac Pro Xeon. Recently, I upgraded it with a CPU tray featuring dual 2.93 GHz Intel Xeon 6-core processors, totaling 12 cores, 64 GB of RAM, and installed Monterey using OpenCore. Everything worked perfectly, but after the upgrade, as soon as I turn on the Mac, the fans kick in with an unbearable noise. However, the Mac is not overheating; the machine is very fast, but the high fan speed is very bothersome! Help Source: MacRumors

2008 Mac Pro crashing/Fan issue
by Guest Gothboy1- 0 replies
- 6 views
I thought it was an HD issue. It would boot up, then 5 minutes later the fan would start getting loud like it was working really hard and in the midst of that would crash leaving the on/off light flashing until I turned the Mac off. I removed the boot HD thinking it was mechanical failure and booted off the cloned backup drive but it did the same thing so I’m a little perplexed as to what’s going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated 2008 Mac Pro running 10.11.6 4 HDs Intel 16 GB RAM Source: MacRumors

Mac Pro 5.1 with OCLP - Freezes / lockups.
by Guest MattMorris- 0 replies

Hi, I'm having some problems with my mid-2010 Mac Pro that I'm hoping someone here can help with. Mid 2010 CMP. Upgraded via 2 x secondhand 3.46GHz Xeon. 12GB original RAM + 2 x 8GB OWC DIMM (28GB total). Big Sur via OCLP. Patched Radeon RX580. The machine generally works well and doesn't really struggle with the moderate loads that I put on it. If I push it too hard when I use it as a DAW, then it does have occasional app-level crashes. However, I am getting a regular major lockup -... Read more Source: MacRumors

NVME+cMP3,1: As easy as Accelsior and NvmExpresDxe.efi?
by Guest pullman- 0 replies
- 12 views
Greetings and salutations I've just watched showing how he managed to get a bootable NVME on the 3,1 by injecting the NvmExpresDxe.efi via OCLP. It made me wonder if I could achieve the same with an OWC Accelsior 1M2 PCIe adapter card, which can be had for little money these days. If this works, must such a card be in one of the faster PCIe slots or will one of the slower ones do? Immense thanks Philip Source: MacRumors

Rouvy (and other 3D-Apps) crashing with Vega 64 in 5,1 (Sonoma, Sequoia)

I lately purchased a Sappire RX Vega 64 Liquid Cooled. Very nice card and working great so far in the 5,1 with Sequoia. Also 3D-benchmarks or Geekbench Compute pass without any issues. But lately i ran into some problems. First noticed with the cycling/training-app Rouvy (which displays track as some real video an the riders as rendered avatars). But it also happened wit some games like The Witcher III or Layers of Fear. The apps do not even start. For Rouvy, some error report as attached... Read more Source: MacRumors

GPU Upgrade A No Go... Because 10.9.5?

Hi, I have been working on upgrades for my old Mac Pro 5,1 mid 2010. I purchased an open box Sapphire Pulse RX580 GPU and when I boot up, there's a black screen. The GPU fans are running and I get the chime but no screen. Is this because I'm using my old OS 10.9.5 with the new Sapphire Pulse? Do I need to have OS High Sierra 10.13.2 in order for the computer to see the new GPU? (The GPU is on Apple's METAL supported list.) So far I've upgraded from quad core to six core, replaced the...

I have a 2012 Mac Pro 5,1 64 Gigs RAM, dual 3.46 GHz, & Radeon RX580 GPU. I had Monterey installed and it was working fine. Then I decided to install OCLP 2.1.2 and Sonoma, then I got this screen/page saying my Mac Pro was owned by Texas State University asking to enroll, and I couldn't go any further. I reached out to their IT dept and they were willing to help but could not find my machine. They said that they no longer use that system and maybe my Mac Pro wasn't cleaned of that MDM. I...

Bluetooth not working on Monterey patch.
by Guest HeadstrongZodiac- 0 replies
- 6 views
Hello all, I recently successfully patched Monterey onto my MacPro 3,1. Everything including the Nvidia metal and wifi works fine, however the bluetooth icon has a little cross through it, and I can't turn it on in settings. Is there any way of fixing this i'm unaware of? I've tried doing an NVRAM reset already, so I don't know what could be the problem. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the root patches. If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated. Source: MacRumors

I currently use a 2017 iMac Pro in my home based technical documentation business with a 3.2 8 Core Xeon W, 64 gig or ram and a 2TB flash drive and it has performed perfectly for me. I mainly use it for my technical documentation files and my Adobe Lightroom and photoshop digital photography images.

"QS" CPUs really that bad?
by Guest flyproductions- 0 replies
- 10 views
Well i've been reading alot her in some threads and watching some YT-videos about using Engineering- and Qualification Samples (mostly from China) in the 7,1. Conclusion was, that ES are to avoid at all costs. But not really the same for QS. While here most of the opinions tend to summarize that they are "not worth the risk", there are some (even reputable) Tech-Youtubers, claiming them to be de facto identical to the final product and – for the somehow a little adventurous – a nice way to...

Hello all, I had a quick question about installing bug sir via OCLP. Do I need to patch dosdude1's Catalina patcher over El Capitan onto my MP 3,1 before using OCLP to avoid metal compatibility? (I have a metal gpu installed and working fine.) Or will OCLP install the necessary drivers and patches without dosdude1's patch? Thanks for any help. Source: MacRumors

Hello, I recently made the mistake of updating my mp 5.1 with a RX6600 using OCLP to Sequoia. I didn't know it was not compatible. Now I can't access the operating system after bootscreen. There's no way to use that GPU, right? I thought about using my old RX560 (which I think should work) to access the system, rescue my files and downgrade to Monterey. As I have seen, it is necessary to erase the entire hard drive to install a previous system. Do you think this is a good idea or is there... Read more Source: MacRumors

My MacBook Pro got stolen and now the thief wants to return it. Should I respond?
by Guest /u/WebHot8444- 0 replies

For the sake of brevity, I'll get straight to the point and fill in the blanks as they come. My MacBook Pro was stolen last year by a man who worked at a computer repair shop. I was able to remotely erase it and report it stolen. Three weeks ago I got an email from him asking if I want my laptop back and that he knows I changed my number. I didn't respond. Last night I got another email saying he's going to leak my personal data unless I pick it up. Should I respond? Is this a threat? submitted by /u/WebHot8444 [link] [comments]
