AudioDoctor Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Oh yes, everything can be undone and you can try again. It doesn't brick the Machine, worst that can happen is you get no sound until you fix it. No electron left behind. Link to comment

It's that easy. csrutil disable csrutil enable I would do the Direct Mode hack for A+, it really does improve the sound quality. Audiodoc...i tried to fisrt disable notifications. I am told to remove SIP first. For that I used this link... http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/06/disable-notification-center-remove-menu-bar-icon-os-x/ In this the command given is launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.notificationcenterui.plist followed by killall NotificationCenter But when I type the first command given above, I am told by Terminal that SIP is engaged. When I type your command to disangage SIP I am told by Terminal that "This tool needs to be executed from Recovery OS". Now how to go about it? THis is Question 1. Question 2 is - how to restore the mac in case I brick the machine - what exactly do I have to do, in baby steps, from scratch, assuming music is not playing and all the work is lost and the mac needs to be just salvaged now.?

AudioDoctor Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 You didn't read the directions did you... You have to be in Recovery Mode to disable SIP. READ THE DIRECTIONS. No electron left behind. Link to comment

AnotherSpin Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 While trying the new HQ Player 4 there was repeating problem which most probably was caused by Amarra optimization script - while it was used to "disable" certain things, such as spotlight, etc., HQ Player was not working properly. I know this for 99% sure because after "enabling" everything back with the script HQ Player 4 functions ok. Mojave on mac mini which is dedicated for music exclusively, do not use for anything else, very few apps installed in addition to system. Link to comment
