Crabhunter Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'm wondering what apps can trip a hack up, so far in my new hack I can use iTunes, iCloud and the app store. DVD player complains about my usb dvd drive (No built in drive). Are there any others I should be trying? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatTheTech Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 DVD player will complain about USB DVD drives on real macs - you have to use VLC or something similar. So far on a retail install I haven't found a single app that hasn't worked , or at least the success rate is about the same as on a real mac.

rcork Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Not true, managed to do this without. I guess they fixed it then. Originally you had to run sudo nvram 8BE4DF61-93CA-11d2-AA0D-00E098032B8C:BootCurrent=1 when installing PD on Lion. Good to know it's not needed anymore because i had a startup script adding it at boot. Edited March 8, 2013 by rcork 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
