Google Chrome not working under OS's higher then Monterey when OCLP is used to update my 2013 Mac Pro

[Gary E Davis]

No matter which OS I try more up to date then Monterey Chrome does not work. Anyone know a fix?

What version of Google Chrome are you using? It must be a 64 bit version after macOS Monterey. Monterey was the last macOS to run 32 bit applications.

Google Chrome might not work well with macOS versions installed through OpenCore Legacy Patcher on your 2013 Mac Pro. Consider reinstalling Chrome or trying other browsers like Firefox or Brave, which could provide better compatibility on patched systems running newer macOS versions beyond Monterey.

Tried reinstalling the latest version but no work still. I think you're right about OCLP cause with my M2 mini everything is fine running chrome on the latest OS

 

[Rodananne]

Why are you using OCLP on an M2? I'm guessing you wanted to run an earlier macOS version. I'm not sure that's really a good idea. Personally I'd be inclined to erase and return it to a current macOS.

 

[Gary E Davis]

I'm not. I was saying that Chrome works fine on a mac with the latest OS that wasn't installed using OCLP

 

[Rodananne]

Ohhhh! I get it.

When you say that Chrom doesnt work on your old Mac using OCLP, what exactly doesnt work? Will the app launch, will pages load, what exactly is going on with chrome on your Mac?

The app is almost frozen, no text just red and white color bars no menus nothing

i had ventura installed on an old 2013 Macbook Pro that had all sort of issues when some apps loaded. i used Onyx to disable sytem wide graphics such as zooming windows and other things i dont remember. but it let apps run smoothly afterwards.
