Hello,

Should you run Mojave 10.4.6 it will be easy to simply Upgrade to Catalina launching the updater from Appstore.

Everything is OK on my Xiaomi Air13 (same model as your's) The only issue is No Touchpad detected! So i use a USB wireless Mouse instead until i find a tip to have the Touchpad recokgnized again...

I could partially fix the Touchpad issue while doing exactly what Rehabman prescribed:

Also, do not use VoodooPS2Controller.kext and AppleSmartPS2TouchPad.kext together.

Removing incompatible kexts from /S/L/E:

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext

Removing incompatible kexts from /L/E:

sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext

sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext

sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext

Installing VoodooPS2Controller.kext (10.11 and later):

cd directory-to-where-your-unzipped-download-is

sudo cp -R Release/VoodooPS2Controller.kext /Library/Extensions

Installing VoodooPS2Controller.kext (prior to 10.11):

cd directory-to-where-your-unzipped-download-is

sudo cp -R Release/VoodooPS2Controller.kext /System/Library/Extensions

Rebuild kernel cache:

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Then reboot your system.

BUT When the Mac goes idle the touchpad also vanished again?

What can i do to fix the Touchpad issue?
