However if have two issues which I want to fix before I move over. 1. Apple magic mouse no longer connects, I think nothing Bluetooth connects with the usb dongle I have been using with Sierra where it works as expected. - Now fixed by Re-setting Bluetooth Module. 2. I can put it to sleep but when I wake it using a usb keyboard, the screens remain blank. To fix the above do I need to make changes to my dsdt? Thank you in advance for the help.

Is the method you pointed out still the best method to upgrade to Mojave from Sierra whilst using hfs formatted hd on an unsupported machine.Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d620osx Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 Sorry @Allan, Have spent most of this afternoon trying to get Mojave re-installed without success. I created a usb driver with the dosdude1, to that I installed clover 5077, copied my EFI which is working fine with Sierra (have tried with the EFI from olarila link too) on the usb and tried re-booting. I get to clover and then it tries to run the install but keep getting stuck at the screen shots attached. I am sure I had a similar issue before and either you or Maldon helped. What am I doing wrong please? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Use the Etcher.app, it's better and easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d620osx Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 Use the Etcher.app, it's better and easy.@allan, thank you for all your help today. Got as far as booting form the new created usb, but as soon as I select the installer option it took me to another screen to choose the boot device. Not sure if this is to do with uefi or something else.Have given up for now will try again another day. Use the Etcher.app, it's better and easy.@allan, thank you for all your help today.

d620osx Posted October 7, 2019 Author Share Posted October 7, 2019 Hi @Allan, This is the screen I get when I select the installer partition, I think it is due to the way I installed clover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d620osx Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) Morning, I have given up on Catalina for now as my GPU is also not supported, and if I upgrade to the RX570, the power supply in my machine will not support it. Please can someone help with fixing my sleep/wake issues. I can put the machine to sleep, but when I wake from USB keyboard, it starts, stops and the starts but only have a blank screen. I have tried USBPorts.kext and the just made the system loop, start, stop, start, stop etc. I am sure it is a user error. I have added the files from the rune.app. Edit: Looks like I have also broken sleep. Just goes in a loop with blank screens. Thank you Send me iMac.zip Edited October 20, 2019 by d620osx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
