Install Mac OS 10.7 in UTM iOS with sound (thanks to this guide)

Here is how to run Mac OS 10.7 in UTM iOS, but while following this guide, you agree to be patient for Mac OS 10.7 to install and load in UTM, please note that Mac OS 10.7 will be too slow to use.

Download the required files:

I recommend downloading the Mac OS 10.7 ISO using IDM using your PC and then transfering the downloaded ISO to the iDevice using the Connected iDevice's file sharing with iTunes.

Building the MAMP stack (php, apache & mysql) on Apple Silicon ARM (native)

Update! This tutorial is outdated. Nowadays brew installes m1 binaries just fine. Also use valet: https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/valet. It's 10x easier.

In this tutorial, we'll build the the nescessary packages for ARM via homebrew. After that we'll configure apache2 for using virtual hosts. The native php is ofcourse way faster, see the results of this benchmark below.

- Kiosk Account - This account will be locked down with Parental Controls
Set up remote management
- We are using Screens 4
- See Screens documentation Configuring macOS for Remote Access
Install kiosk software

We use a role-based Apple ID (ex: webmaster@[institution].org) to manage macOS software. Managing Apps this way saves lots of headaches.

Replace mcrypt_encrypt with openssl_encrypt

If you switch from PHP 5.x to 7.1 you will get the following message:

"Function mcrypt_encrypt() is deprecated"

Now it is the right time to refactor this old function :-)

function encrypt(string $data, string $key, string $method): string
