HT1237 My MacBookPro9,2 gets error message: "This software is not supported on your system." Audio jack is ignored. What else can I do?

MACBOOK Pro 13-inch Mid 2012
2.9GHz Intel Core i7
8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 40000 512 MB
Mac OS X Lion 10..5 (11G63)
Model Identifier:                    MacBookPro9,2
Boot ROM Version:          MBP91.00D3.B08
SMC Version (system):          2.2f44
Passed Last Power on Self-Test
The MacBook EFI Updater File that I downloaded from the Apple website for Support:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
--> shows my Model McBookPro 9,2 as needing
EFI Boot ROM version MBP91.00D3.B08 (EFI 2.9) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1593)
SMC version 2.2f44 (SMC 1.8) (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633)
I downloaded and tried to run both the files
MacBookProEFIUpdate2.9.dmg 9/19/12
AND
MacBookProSMCUpdate.pkg
as offered on this matrix, which instructs:
"This article lists firmware updates that were released for Intel-based Macs. They update the firmware that originally shipped from the factory. If your computer does not appear on this list, an update from the factory firmware is not necessary.
If you are unsure whether your computer needs a particular update, simply download and open the update installer. The installer will alert you if the firmware update is already installed or not needed."
and instead of a message telling me of the proper update
"This software is not supported on your system."
So, why would the manual updater not tell me I already have the proper SMC and EFI updates?
What is the reason I get the message that the software I downloaded from Apple Support is not supported on my system?
Is this indicative of a larger problem with my MACBOOK PRO?

[email protected],
why were you trying to reïnstall the Boot ROM and SMC versions that were already installed on your MacBook Pro?
I agree that a “not supported” message is certainly less clear than an “already installed” message would have been.

but when install the last update MacBookProEFIUpdate2.9 i got error like this
"This software is not supported on your system."
please help me thanks

OK, so the firmware is the same as mine, and yet Apple Support offered this EFI and SMC update packages, which should give a message that our computers are updated.
However, the update packages fail to run.
Did Apple neglect to give the correct update for the mid-2012 issue of MacBook Pro 13-inch? I have the i7 Intel processor, instead of the i5, and I was sold this unit as having two processors, but the System info only lists a single processor.
Is one of the problems with Intel-based MacBook Pro units that the integration wasn't without bugs that cause processor hang when running the OS Lion, even with updates to 10.7.5?
Shouldn't the EFI and SMC updaters run on these machines as stated in the Apple Support article?
What will Apple do for these customers?

Is the new hdd at least as large a capacity as the original? Can be larger capacity, but sometimes smaller will cause error.
Enter BIOS by tapping F10 key. Is all system info intact/complete?

HT5219 My Macbook Air (Late 2010) Will not let me install Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet adapter software. It says "This software is not supported on your system." What can I do to stop this and install the adapter software?

Help me

"This software is not supported on YOUR SYSTEM" seems to be a recurring theme in Apple Support site offerings for MacBook Pros and I suspect that Apple didn't really work this issue thoroughly enough to make their hardware updates viable.
You are not alone, Raigbow. Many MacBook Pro users are finding the Apple Support update packages are not doing what their support instructions indicate should be happening.
I believe this is a bigger issue of Apple not thinking of previously sold units as worthy of solid support. After the one year warranty, unless you buy more warranty - and I have - the half-hearted but very thorough documentation of non-working "fixes" shows they aren't all that concerned with your happiness as a user.... Only as a potential buyer of the next Apple showcase item.
After that, they will be on to the next big thing. Kind of like the Japanese model, in which old things are discarded.
But save your work, your data, as the only fix the manufacturer will offer is to wipe your drive and reinstall the original software.
Or use the iCloud to save everything you do and value, since the device you use to access it is short-term.. Don't get too attached to your MAC, because it is terminal in nature.

I have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this?

Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

I am trying to download pictures from my canon rebel eos to my Ipad but i get the message "this device is not supported" what can I do ?

I just bought an Apple Lighting to USB Camera Adapter. When I got home to and connected it to my Canon Rebel EOS Digital Camera. I received the error message "This device is not supported" I was wondering if there is any software or drivers I need to download?
Thanks
Don

I use Canon Cameras and have no problems downloading photos from the camera to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. My questions and suggestions might be basic but just to make sure:
1. This is an iPad forum area. Are you using the lightning to USB camera adapter with an iPad? Your info in your original post says iPod. I'm not sure that the adapter works with an iPod.
2. After you connect the adapter to your iPad and then use a USB cable to connect the adapter to the camera did you turn on the camera?
3. If you did turn on the camera and still did not get the import of photos to start try a reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. This will not cause any data loss.

You can try downloading the 64 bit version. You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

I have just purchased a lightning to 30 pin adaptor to use on an iPad mini and a gen5 iPod touch both devices are running iOS 8.1.3 and come up with The error message "this accessory is not supported by this device "
THis is means they are not charging on a 30 pin cable and the touch won't work in my Apple iPod dock - no audio out or charge. Have re powered both devices to no avail am wondering if the iOS version is the problem
Help!

If it is a lightning to 30 pin adaptor, and you have a 7th Generation Nano it has to fit the Nano.
This is lightning to 30 pin adapter: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B---Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/6651 936.p?id=1218803450821&skuId=6651936#tab=overview
Is this what you bought?
You need to contact Sony and see if they model you have is compatible with the docking adapter. It may not be.

Hi All,

Could anyone please shed light on it?
Thanks in Advance.

HT4108 Digital AV adapter does not support iPad 2. Error message "This accessory does not supported by iPad"

Just bought latest digital AV adapter MD098ZM/A. Does not work with my iPad 2. Error messade" this accessory is not supported by iPad" while the package saying it supports iPad 2 and later.

It's works with the new iPad. It said "accessory not supported". I clicked OK and now it works.

IPad won't send emails but iPhone does. iPad message says server does not recognise email address resetting account makes no difference what else can I try?,

My iPad won't send emails despite identical settings with iPhone which does work. " server does not recognise email address" resetting account fails to solve issue. What else can I try?

Have you checked ALL the settings including the port assignments? Easiest way to get those back to is to delete the email account from the iPad then redo the email account. Usually the ISP providing the email account will have instructions on their web site.

Why do I get this error message "This volume does not support permanent version storage."

I get this error message when I save a "pages 09" document edited on my macbook pro but saved to my mac mini (over a wifi network). All my Macs are running 10.9.3. My Mac mini is using time machine to back up to a separate hard drive (USB 3 connection). I Tried using Page 5.2 but it is a disaster over my network, slow, crashes, creates random folders....

According to Apple network volumes do not support built in 'versions'…
OS X Server: "The document 'file name' is on a volume that does not support permanent version storage" alert
If in doubt Google the error text with any personal info removed.
Work on it locally & copy it to the network daily if you need versions, otherwise use a real 'version control system' that you have some actual control over like GIT. It is designed for code projects, but you can cram anything in if you really want.
http://www.git-scm.com
I suspect Apples file format will make it miserable with Pages, but there are some great Mac GIT apps.
Using Time Machine would be probably be suffice (run it on the Mac you use as the server & then restore versions on that Mac).

My ipod classic 80G is displaying the error message "this accessory is not supported" when placed on my Altec Lansing dock

Ipod is 80G Classic and displaying no other unusal or faulty behaviour. In the couple of days between the dock working fine and the error message appearing, there were no software updates. The ipod is actually a couple of years older than the dock- what's going on?

So the iPod worked previously on this particular dock? Does Altec's support website state that it supports your particular model iPod Classic?
Have you tried a hard reset of the device with it still connected to the dock? To do this, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
It wouldn't hurt to also check the dock connector on the iPod for any signs of debrisa and bent or corroded pins that could be blocking the connection between the dock and iPod.
