    How can I spoof Apple's "SIP enabled" checker?

    I've been using TotalFinder for ages because of its visor and all of the convenience and aesthetic features that are superior to Apple's Finder, and I have no interest in going back to Apple's ghetto Finder. Unfortunately with Apple being a totalitarian corporation it has been increasing the...

    MP 1,1-5,1 5,1 Monterey Limiting MacOS release with OC

    Hey all! I'm wondering if it's at all possible to convince my cMP 5,1 —running Martin Lo's OC build— that Monterey is the newest supported OS and only pull updates for that. In the troubleshooting section here, it's mentioned this might be accomplished by manually configure some bits in SIP...

    custom SIP / csrutil settings

    I usually run my mac with the custom SIP setting to disable certain persistent launch services I don't use/need. csrutil enabled --without fs --without debug However this setting looks to now also keep Apple Internal disabled as well: This hasn't been the case until one of the more recent...

    What does "csrutil disable" actually disable for this app to run properly?

    Hi there, I have lurked around to install Playcover for Genshin impact on my M1 Mac. It requires one to temporary disable SIP to get it going so to say (https://docs.playcover.io/getting_started/troubleshoot_login.html?highlight=csrutil#troubleshoot-app-login-issues). It seems that for 'some'...

    SIP question

    Just curious, but what exactly is the downside to disabling SIP on Ventura, Monterey or Big Sur, since all of them already cant really be tampered with due to the System volume being read-only and when you boot you're only booting off a snapshot (SSV)?

    recommend a voip app that will _receive_ calls from screen-off or backgrounded

    I have long been an android fan (degoogled). When I switched to apple for family FaceTime I brought some of my android functionality. I have missed 99% of the calls on my other (non-google) voip accounts. To receive these calls I carry two phones: good fun. I would prefer to carry only the...

    macOS Help re-enabling SIP on MacBook Pro

    First time poster - with a very technical issue - after looking through the forums - thought the developers might be the best place to post. Somehow, while deleting a log in item, I inadvertently disabled the System Integrity Protection on my MacBook Pro running MacOS 11.2.3. Discovered it when...

    This quite a long road but will try to shorten the path For some reasons, I decided to downgrade back to macOS Catalina from Big Sur Since I had no TimeMachine backup and could not do a backup either (available free drives ?) So I free enough space from my SSD created another APFS volume I...

    Big Sur - Force RGB mode for displays

    Some users might be aware that there has been a great fix using a Ruby script to create a new EDID for your display. This is to fix an issue with some displays and Mac OS whereby it sees the display as a TV screen and is not using RGB mode for it, resulting in a very bad display quality (washed...

    How do I change an external disks ICON in Catalina?

    Both external disks connected by Thunderbolt 3 and USB3.1 to my 19,1 iMac Catalina 10.15.4 have been made both readable and writable by me the owner. I used the Apple+I window to do this. It is strange that I CAN CHANGE the ICONS of my internal 2TB SSD & my Time Machine Thunderbolt connected 1TB...

    Questions on SIP

    I am trying to configure a Late 2011 Macbook Pro with Raid 0 Boot SSDs on High Sierra as well as an updated Bluetooth 4.0 card for continuity. Continuity Activation Tool requires disabling SIP, and installing in RAID 0 (via DOSDude patcher) removes Recovery Mode, but disabling SIP requires...

    Easy way to create a Recovery Partition?

    Thanks to all readers of this post. To install Mojave in my MP 6.1 and keep HFS+, I cloned my High Sierra to an external drive and upgraded it to Mojave which made it APFS. I intended to erase the inner drive (always keeping HFS+) and clone back with CCC the Mojave. However I see no Mojave...

    SIP disable in Mojave -> kernel panic

    Hello, I learned today about the "improvement" SIP in Mojave; long story short: I have about 3Go of files in /Library/Updates that I want to get rid of. "Operation not permitted" is of course the answer in terminal and iterm (both have been granted full disk access in the system prefs, as well...

    MacBook Pro GPU failure: can't disable SIP

    From reading several threads, I am sure the AMD GPU is failing on my 2011 MacBook Pro. I have seen the instructions to boot in safe mode and use commands to eventually turn off the AMD GPU and turn on the integrated Intel GPU. Here's what I did (using the AppleMacFinder procedure...

    MacPro 3.1 / 980 Ti - 4k image shrunk (switchresx?) No screen in recovery mode

    Just got a Geforce 980 Ti and 4k tv for my old (not Hack) MacPro 2008. 4k image is too small, and no controls for scaling, so trying to use SwitchResX, but it now says no custom anything in OSX 10.11.6 (can't update further) without first disabling SIP which seems to require CMD R at boot...

    Disabling SIP

    How "dangerous" is disabling SIP if I want to install Sierra on a 2009 Mac Mini? The official limit of the 2009 Mac Mini is El Capitan but I really need Sierra and am not sure I can afford a new or even second-hand later model Mini. If I have anti-virus software like Sophos installed will that...
