Hey guys,

 

I want that restart,shutdown and sleep work. Therefore I followed this guide below-> [qoute]

 

I found the /AppleACPIPlatform.kext file but if I right-click there is no content folder/MacOS

How can I find AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/MacOS/ ????

 

/System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/MacOS/

 

P.S.: now my PC doesn`t start normally into mac can I solve this problem by replacing the 2 kext files with the original kext or is a

new install required???

 

 

What you need to do is leave them on the desktop, navigate to /System/Library/Extensions in finder, right click on both of those kexts, and show contents.

 

so in /System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/MacOS/ you will see AppleACPIPlatform - drag the new one on your desktop into this folder and overwrite the file that is there, you will have to authenticate.

 

in /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/MacOS/ you will see IONetworkingFamily - drag the new one on your desktop into this folder and overwrite the file that is there, you will have to authenticate.

 

 

Once you've overwritten both files, its time to go into terminal,

sudo -s [enter] you will be asked for your password.

 

cd to /System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/MacOS/

chown -R root:wheel AppleACPIPlatform

chmod -R 755 AppleACPIPlatform

 

cd to /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/MacOS/

chown -R root:wheel IONetworkingFamily

chmod -R 755 IONetworkingFamily

 

If you did it all correctly, sleep and restart now works. You must reboot first.

Also, if you have the same motherboard as I, go into bios, press ctrl+f1 for advanced bios settings and turn on HPET 64 bit mode, plus set your sleep settings to S3

You should be able to just put back the old kexts and restore permissions.

You haven't told us your system? which version of leopard?

Now I found the direction

 

/System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext/Contents/MacOS/

 

but teh terminal says it can´t find the file in the directory whats wrong??
