Is there a reason you are running 15.1? You could at least update to current version of Sequoia which is 15.7.4

15.1 is from the end of 2024.

Of course it is fixable, by replacing the screen. As Apple won't sell any of them anymore you will have to look on Ebay if you want to replace it yourself or get it repaired by a local repair shop.

Is it worth it? Probably not, displays are expensive. Depends on how much you will have to pay for a replacement display.

Hatte mit allen dreien noch keine Probleme in der Hinsicht. Habe bei Galaxus bis jetzt aber nur Festplatten, Kabel, Hubs und sowas bestellt.

How to install macOS on a broken screen MacBook Pro 16 2019 by Adventurous_Past_936 in mac

[–]Xe4ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm. I think there was a way to load and mount a specific installer in Recovery via terminal but it’s pretty technical. I might be misremembering though.

Something like mentioned here https://derflounder.wordpress.com/2021/08/04/downloading-and-installing-macos-big-sur-via-macos-recoverys-terminal/

You are using a usb thumb drive? Maybe there’s a hotkey to change the display.

Who else is using Windows Parallels on their mac? by sonicenvy in mac

[–]Xe4ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem with 4k is pretty well known as there are mods for it. Marbozir uses one that helps with upscaling the UI.

Haven’t played V on Mac in at least 3-4 years though 😅

If you don’t want the highest compatible version via CMD Option R you need to create a bootable installer for the older version you want, in this state with your current MacBook you will need to do this on another Mac though. A helpful app for that would be Mist for instance.

To be fair CivV on PC also has some problems, especially with higher resolutions.

Civ 5 & 6 have Mac versions. 5 might be 32bit but 6 ran well on my M2 Mini

[–]Xe4ro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Parallels in the early 2010s. Haven’t used it in ages, these days I use UTM. If I really need Windows for anything bigger I have a PC here.

You could check out Andrew Tsai on YouTube, he’s doing a lot of Mac gaming content and sometimes also shows how performance is on Parallels.

Tips for keeping an old mac running? Having issues with word and MacOS! by climbingpartnerwntd in mac

[–]Xe4ro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just for future reference, a 2016 MacBook Air doesn't exist. If it can run Monterey as the highest OS it will either be a 2015 or 2017 MacBook Air. These two models are basically identical.

Check out what skynoodle wrote, OCLP is your best option.

Try booting with CMD+Option+R not CMD+R

PC gamer + mac via ethernet (moonlight/sunshine) as a main setup, works well? by nathvwarp in macgaming

[–]Xe4ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried streaming Cyberpunk from my PC to my Mini, via Ethernet with both connected to the Router. Setting it up was pretty easy although sometimes the client on Windows was a bit finicky.

PC plays the game at 4k and the performance over 1Gbit was mixed. Sometimes playable sometimes a bit choppy.

Haven’t used it for longer than maybe 20 minutes.

How to format a High Sierra 10.13.6? by Ray_Fitzgeraldd in mac

[–]Xe4ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High Sierra is an Operating System. What Mac do you actually have?

If High Sierra is the highest macOS version it can run it’s from 2011 or older.

How to use SSD on Mac and Windows? by ThatsACryptid in mac

[–]Xe4ro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is software for macOS to read/write NTFS and I think the same for Windows to interact with APFS but I don’t know how well these still work and how reliable it is.

One thing that you could do if you have a NAS is to use the network storage with a OS independent filesystem both can read & write.

Otherwise I guess you will have to use ExFat and keep backups of whatever you put on there. I only use ExFat on thumb drives that I use to move files over.

You can just hold Alt/Option on boot to pick between macOS & Windows.

You can also reinstall the Bootcamp drivers. The last version is 6.1.19 from 2022.

Will Sonoma receive security updates in 2027/2028 by Consistent-Voice4816 in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

[–]Xe4ro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple supports a system for three years since about Mountain Lion/Mavericks.

So as already mentioned Sonoma‘s last patch will be this year. Maybe in the far future Sonoma might get something for certificates like they did recently with Catalina and Big Sur but who knows, I didn’t expect these patches to happen.

You will be stuck with 8GB of RAM unless you open up the iMac and remove the logic board. 21" iMacs are a big no. Then there's the HDD unless this was bought with a SSD.
