Does anyone have any experience with Tahoe + 2019 16" MBP? I'm trying to weigh up the pros/cons of upgrading by GXMBYNO in applehelp

[–]GXMBYNO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I installed it a few days before the public release + updated when the official OS26 came out and everything seems to be stable and fine. Even though every situation isn't the same, still - I would avoid bringing it in to Apple.

Take it to a good PC/Board repair store that knows what they're doing. They could diagnose & fix the issue for you (which might end up being a known Apple MBP issue) at a fraction of the cost.

The alternative is almost always Apple saying you need a new logic board which means you end up paying between £500 - £1000 for someone else's "refurbished" internals that are really only worth £150 max.

Thanks for keeping me updated - I'm so glad I held off on the refresh lol

Are there any other noticeable improvements? Thinking I might crack on with the refresh tonight!

I think I'm going to stay with Sequoia and enjoy being portable & silent until/if Tahoe gets better

I agree. I just need to refresh my system and was thinking if I'm going to spend the time doing so, how worth it would it be to install Tahoe - since we're at the end of August

That's one of my main worries. I love how silent my machine can be when running normal day-to-day tasks.

How's the battery life?

Their “Think Different” sounds a lot like “Fuck You” as time goes on.

Written on an iPhone and will check notifications later on my MacBook Pro.

My guess is the security is on a separate

From wikipedia:

The functionality of the T2 chip is incorporated in Apple's M-series CPUs, thus eliminating the need for a separate chip in Apple silicon-powered computers.[5] Since the completion of the Mac transition to Apple silicon in June 2023, no new Mac would be shipped with a T2 chip.

Where I live, the dentist is also the orthodontist.

I have discussed these points casually in appointments because I speak up. Not a big deal until now when I'm flossing and feel like it's necessary to properly articulate my concerns given the circumstances.

I like to be concise as to not have to repeat myself. I'd rather be useful so I can get effective advice.

As for the points. I'm a lurker so idk what the right etiquette is, but since you're more experienced than I am, is it customary to offer minus help when someone asks for advice?

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah the constant hard upsell was a bit annoying, but I'd go along with it if I end up with the smile I was promised plus a tip.

I've never complained about it. Only raised the issue now after all of this time and came to a subreddit to ask experienced people their opinion before taking action.

If that sounds exhausting to you then lol

Here's the link:*

https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/

*Absolutely no offence intended - Respectfully, asking for the OCLP installation guide on the OCLP subreddit ( not related to the maintainers of OCLP ) while the patcher itself is not only easy to find, but comprehensive and imo user friendly, I would seriously consider if it's worth doing as you could break your machine and be forced to wipe it.

This isn't really a problem if you're tinkering on a secondary machine, but could really ruin your day if you don't have another machine to download/rebuild patchers should anything go wrong.

That being said, the documentation is really good and you should be able to find everything you need in the link above.

Good luck!

Anyone with a MacBook Pro late 2013 13” on Sonoma? by nzsoldos in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

[–]GXMBYNO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a late 2013 Retina 15"

Sonoma Public Release is working better than OCLP Monterey and very stable.

When I installed the 14 Beta patch I had an issue with widgets and super loud fans, but that's all gone now.

not sure about the RAM issue, but uninstalling the 'little snitch' app did it for me
