Hi guys, I have a problem with the Photos.app / iCloud photos library. The following happened: - upgraded from El Capitan to Sierra (everything worked well, current Clover UEFI, fixed iMsg etc.) - one day, I reinstalled my Little Snitch (wasn't working anymore on Sierra), and opened the Photos.app, which reindexed my images - 3-4 minutes later, my hackintosh went out. Like someone pressed the Reset-Button - I thought, okay, freak accident, may occur. Rebooted - Logged in, about 10-15 seconds later, out again (no shutdown procedure, just like the power is out for a second) This would appear everytime I logged into my account. So I tried a few things (including a complete fresh install of Sierra), and was able to narrow it down. On the fresh install, the same thing happened again, after I opened up Photos.app and connected my iCloud media library. Same behavior as above. The guest account, was running without a problem though. So, after a while, I removed my iCloud photo library from my main account (over the guest account) in Photos/iCloud library something something THEN, I was able to use my main account again. So, something is going wrong that is indexing / processing my iCloud photos library, that kills my PC big time when doing this. Does anyone of you experts have any idea what exactly might be causing this? And how to handle this problem? I would really like to use the Photos.app, everything else is working really, really fine. I tried to keep my installation as vanilla as possible. ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, LilaQ

I am on Mavericks now, and still I have sound assertion problems when plugging in my headphones! Any ideas?

Yes, and I repaired the permissions and rebuild the cache with kext utility

Are you sure you posted your answer in the right thread?

Any idea, Mirone?

10.8.5, I was going to install Mavericks this evening

Hi, I am using Headphones since yesterday. Since then, after a few time my sound stops working. The sound bar reacts very vers slow when I press volume up / down, and there is no sound at all. The Log shows: I am using a patched AppleHDA from the other thread (http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=3850) Can anyone help me fix this? Thanks in advance, LilaQ

Hi, could anyone tell me if there is a chance to make all speakers work with these 2 PinConfigs from Windows? Thanks in advance, LilaQ

Thanks Mirone, that made the sound a little bit better. But if you have a litte bit more time, I would like to ask you to look at this: I just reinstalled Windows next to my MacOSX and installed the sound drivers. Now I looked in the registry, and there I found a PinConfig with 23 Entries, and also another PinConfig with 11 Entries. Would you look at this? Maybe it is possible to make a AppleHDA where all speakers work with both these PinConfigs? Here is are the entries from the registry: - 1. Entry (with 11 PinConfigs): http://pastebin.com/3EGh4xfT - 2. Entry (with 23 PinConfigs): http://pastebin.com/5bPLsgbd Thank you very much for your help and your work! Greets, LilaQ

The sound quality is mediocre, I would say. The HP Spectre XT features "Beats Audio", in Windows the sound is really great, good bass, pretty loud. But without the top speakers it's not very loud and no bass at all Is there any chance to get the top speakers working, instead of the bottom speakers? Maybe the sound is better with the top speakers on, and the bottom speakers off. Thank you for your help, Mirone.

Thanks again, Mirone. Now I have sound, but again only my bottom speakers Do you need any additional information? Maybe from Windows, where all speakers are working? Greets, LilaQ

Thanks Mirone, which layout-id should I use in my DSDT? With layout-id 12 I don't get any sound (speaker-icon in the bar is grey) Greets, LilaQ

Hey everyone, I have a HP Spectre XT Touchsmart Notebook, on which I have been working to get MacOSX fully running for about 2,5 weeks now. I'm at about 90% so far. The current issue is my sound. The HP Spectre has two speakers on the bottom, and two (or maybe only one) on the top. With VoodooHDA the sound was miserable, and only the bottom speakers were active. Today I found a patched AppleHDA for exactly my chipset: http://www.osx86.net/files/file/3498-apple-hda-for-idt-92hd99bxx-id-0x111d76e5/ With the DSDT patch I got it working, and the sound quality is way better than with VoodooHDA, but still only the bottom speakers are working. From what I saw from my Windows installation, the bottom speakers are only supporting speakers, and the top speakers are the ones that are actually responsible for the high-quality sound. Now, I want to patch my AppleHDA to make my top speakers work. But to be honest, I can only get the concept of AppleHDA patching to a certain point. I do have the codec_dump.txt, and also created the codec_dump.txt.svg, made the hex_to_dec patch, created the verbs.txt. But that is where I don't understand how to go on. I read the guides 5 times, but I still don't understand it. I uploaded all of my files here: http://d-h.st/uJv If anyone could help me out on this, this would be VERY much appreciated. I like to do everything on my hackintosh on my own, but this is a point where I am really lost. If you need any more information, I'll be happy to deliver asap! Thanks in advance guys! Greets, LilaQ
