10.4.9 And Firmware ?

Just a quick question, does the .9 update contain a firmware update ?
Regards
Ronni

I have a Powerbook G4 12" 1.5 and after the 10.4.9 update the laptop hangs for no apparent reason. I have reinstalled the OS from scratch four times and the system keeps hanging. Already zeroed out the entire HD and installed 10.4 but the problem persists. Reparing permissions has not helped. All this started inmediately after 10.4.9 update.

Do I need to install Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (Intel) and firmware

Hiya,
I recently bought a new Macbook Pro,it is Mac OS X version 10.4.8, i am just wondering whether I need to install Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (Intel)?
I also tried to install MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 1.2, however it says the computer doesn't need to install it. And I checked my Boot ROM Version is MBP22.00A5.B00. After the update it should be: MBP11.0055.B08 (MacBook Pro 15 inch). So I don't know what to do?
please help!
Thanks.
Catherine

"Do I need to install Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (Intel) and firmware"
You don't "need" to install anything. If you think you can benefit from the updates then go ahead.
"i am just wondering whether I need to install Mac OS X 10.4.8 Update (Intel)? "
If it came with 10.4.8 preinstalled, then you do not need to install it.
"So I don't know what to do?"
Nothing. If it says the update isn't needed, then it's already been applied at the factory.

Turned on fileVault AND firmware password, can't boot into verbose mode?

Just out of curiousity, I turned on fileVault AND firmware password on my retina macbook pro,
and when I boot up holding command-v, instead of getting the firmware password screen, I get the filevault password screen.
Is this normal and expected behaviour?

The firmware password disables that shortcut; verbose mode can still be used by using the Terminal to change the NVRAM boot arguments, which requires an administrator password.

Should I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and firmware 1.2 on my iPod?

Should I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and firmware 1.2 on my iPod because it seems alot of people are having problems especially with the firmware on their iPods.

I am running a Mac and my iPod is experiencing the lock-up that others have reported here.
The update to iTunes 7 as well as to firmware 1.2 for iPod went smoothly and the iPod reboot as part of the firmware upgrade completed successfully. However, I then attempted to eject the iPod and found that the "Do Not Disconnect" screen was frozen on the iPod. I waited for a while but it was frozen - wasn't blinking.
I have reset the iPod numerous times only to find that it freezes shortly after the reset. I have been able to connect it to my MacBook right after a reset and it does seem to sync but I can't eject it successfully - always freezes while connected. Because of this consistent freezing I am unable to attempt a restore on the iPod.

Will solve Apple the iTunes 7.0 and firmware 1.2 problems?

Hello.
Does Apple know the iTunes 7.0 and firmware 1.2 (iPod video 60Gb) problems?.
(i.e. iPod keeps freezing after a few seconds ever since you updated to iTunes 7 and/or iPod software ver. 1.2.)
Will solve Apple this problems?. Perhaps a New version?.
Thanks.

Don't worry, they started getting aware of those problems for sure.
Give them the time to fix that (I presume during this week).

John, to answer your question I'd need to know if you're seeking firmware for your Express or your Extreme, and which model of each you have.
The correct firmware for an "older" Express is version 6.3. Use Airport Utility to install it.
If your "old AirPort" is a Graphite or Snow model, you need to use AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow 4.2.5

WHERE IS CREATIVE SUPPORT AND FIRMWARE FOR THEIR PRODUCTS???????

@WHERE IS CREATIVE SUPPORT AND FIRMWARE FOR THEIR PRODUCTS??I swear I can't believe Creative is getting away with what they are doing. I can't tell you the amount of people that are infuriated with this company. Creative seems to be more concerned with releasing a hundred versions of the same type of mp3 player instead of supporting the mp3 players they've already released. I have owned multiple Creative products including soundcards and mp3 players. The lastest one- the Creative X-FI(with wireless lan) is one of the glitchiest players I've ever owned yet their last firmware update was 2 years ago- 2 YEARS!!
!!! I've had it with this ridiculous company. They would be the envy of Apple if they could only get their customer support together instead they'd much rather watch their customer base slowly evaporate.
Dave

I TOTALLY agree. Not only does their product support blow, so does their customer support. I can't find anywhere to contact these people regarding my warranty return status. I have typed the RMA info in for 3 days now and all I receive is an internal error! WTF :angry:
The contact us link is just another link back the same options on the page. SO "contact us" really means "Good luck clicking around in a circle until you give up." I really hope that they send me my product back, lord knows I can't track its status anymore.
This will be the LAST thing I ever purchase from Creative until I've heared that they have gotten their act together.

Xcode and firmware update problem

Hi all,
i've been working on my app for a few month now and i have about two more weeks until i finally submit it. everything went very good during development.. untill -
by ACCIDENT i've upgraded my firmware to 3.1.2
since my OS is 10.5.7, as i understand, i must install xcode 3.2.1. but this version also needs mac OS 10.6
so it's realy frustrating for me...
do i need now to upgrade/purchase OS 10.6 and also my xcode environment in order to continue working ?
can't i make a rollback to other firmware version supported by my current 3.1.2 xcode ?
i've searched the net endlessly and just couldn't find anyway to downgrade my firmware (i have a 5.11.7 baseband and 6.2 bootloader)
please...
any help ?

GRe: Zen 8G This device cannot start code 0 and firmware update problem?Hello Tbg99,
Welcome to Creative forums!
Try booting the player in the recovery mode.
. While the ZEN is off, press and hold down the play/pause button.
2. While holding down the play/push button, push the reset button slowly using a paper clip/pin. You should feel the "click" sound when press it.
3. Slide the On/Off switch towards the power button and hold it down until the recovery boot screen appears.
Choose Clean Up then Reboot. If problem still persists, you may need to format the ZEN but take note that formatting will delete the contents of the device. To format the ZEN, boot the ZEN in the recovery mode again and choose Format this time.

Brother HL-3170CDW won't print in color, has poor print quality. I have downloaded drivers, and firmware from Brother with no success.

Just received this printer, and am unable to have any success with it printing in color. I have downloaded drivers, and firmware from Brother that are for OSX 10.9. Also, the print quality is quite poor. Any suggestions what I should be looking for to resolve this? I feel like I am back in the 90's with Windows 3.1!

You need to go to the brother website and download the driver for your printer. I had the same problem, and resolved it just now. The driver for this particular printer is not a good match for any of the preinstalled printer drivers on os x.

Sound Blaster Tactic3D Rage Wireless - Driver and Firmware update, now it's frozen?????????

Just recieved my headphones yesterday - plugged it in and charged it = works. I then decided to download the newest drivers and firmware and went straight to bed. This afternoon, suddenly no sound is detected, what so ever! The USB Power LED flashes slowly and a constant red glow is showing at my headphones.. When I try to re-pair it, the USB Power LED flashes rapidly as it should, but neither the Mic Mute button, nor the Connect Button on the headphones responds.. It feels like the headset is simply just frozen right after the new driver/firmware installation.
I've tried everything pretty much.. Went from Wireless to USB to see if that helped, but it didnt. Tried to remove / setback the drivers, still dosn't work. Headphones is just completely frozen with no buttons working and a constant red glowing light - can't be turned off or restarted!!!
WHAT TO DO?!?
Cheers,
Alexander

My headphones just ran out of power during the day = it resetted itself. I then connected it again and re-paired it. Atm it's working perfectly fine again. I will now try to reinstall the Control Panel, not the driver though, hopefully it will work this time and wont make the headphones go into "non-responding-retarded-mode" once again :-)
Conclusion: For me it felt like it was either the Drivers or the Firmware update, maybe both, which made my headphones "crash", or atleast not respond to any command / buttons pushed. If anyone faces the same or similar problems as me, due to installation of drivers/firmware, let your headset run out of power (if you as me, don't know how to remove the battery manually) and just reconnect it :-) Should work then.

RAID Driver and Firmware updates?

In my continuing "learing activities"
I found that when Vista SP1 installed the RAID Drivers were V6.xxxx from sometime back in 2007
I found V 8.7.0.1007 of the RAID drivers on the intel site.
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2101&OSFullName=Windows+V...
After I installed them I did get a nice GUI manager program showing all the drives and staus and so on and
at boot up a item shows up on the task bar for a short time indicating RAID status... then the icon disappears again...Anyway...
On to my real question... Lenovo offically has the drivers at 7.6.xxx
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-69823
These would match my (as-delivered) RAID firmware level which is also at 7.6.xxx
I recall times when miss-matched firmware vs. driver levels can cause issues on IBM server machines.
I'm wondering if that is the case here, and if so I can not see a place to download the FIRMWARE upgrades....???
I was miss-matched before with s/w level 6.x and firmware 7.x now I'm still miss-matched...
Wondering if I should drop back to Lenovo V7.6 software drivers so that I AM matched up...
(This is still a "test" config so no harm done in any event ... I'm just playing....)
Thanks,
Jim

A valid drivefrom an array IS recognized if plugged into a different port on the motherboard
a rebuild is automatically kicked off.
if the drive rebuilds when moved then the system is assuming a failure.   afaik, drives cannot move ports without the system assuming something has failed, even if the drive itself is healthy.
yes, it did kick off a rebuild, I was just a bit surprised that it recognized it as HD member of the array since somewhere in the docs I read that the SAME port must be used when replacing a drive ... I had just "assumed" (yeah, I know about the "assume" word   ;-) ....) that the manager was doing it's thing JUST based on port assignments -- I guess there is a RAID signature on the actual drive somewhere...
The SATA port numbers on the motherboard do NOT correspond to the numbers reported in the RAID manager s/w. Motherboard numbering starts @ 1 while RAID mgr starts at 0.
socket 0 is the FDD socket.   i believe the RAID manager starts the first drive of the first array at 0 regardless of which sockets the array populates.
Hmmmmmmm that's not what I'm seeing .. I have a "regular" 34-pin cable connection on the MB for the FDD... which I am not using.. as I have the mult-card reader. I plugged my 2 optical drives into the two SATA ports on the front edge of the MB ( labeled #1 & #2) then plugged my two 1TB drives into MB ports 3 and 4 (which I have in a RAID1) and have the 250GB drive on MB port #5 with #6 being empty.
The RAID Mgr s/w reports that ports 0 & 1 are optical, ports 2 & 3 are used for the RAID1 port 4 is the 250Gb and 5 is unused. Not a big deal ... just not what I expected.
Since there is no easy way to tell which drive in an array has failed (no blinking LEDs like on the big server boxes) one needs to be careful to swap the correct drive in the event of a failure....
that's a feature i'd like to see in future models.   some sort of visual (and audible, for that matter) indication of drive status using simple red and green LEDs would be great.
in my case, without the LSI MegaRAID Storage Manager software, i'd have no idea what any of my five SAS drives were doing.   i found it on LSI's site purely by dumb luck. in the event of a drive failure, it's set up to show a visual warning on the screen, email my personal account, and send a message to my blackberry.   if something happens, i'll definitely know about it.

How to obtain software and firmware updates via CD

Hello Forum!
Because I don't have broadband, I was wondering if Apple mails a CD w/ software and firmware updates.
I need the following updates according to Apple:
Java for Mac OS X 10.4 Release 5.0
Airport Extreme 2007 1.0
iPhoto update 6.0.6
Battery update 1.2
Superdrive firmware update 2.1
iTunes 7.3
Mac OS X update combo. 10.4.10
Thanks,
Ryoichi

Apple does not usually provide updates via CDs to individuals. However, if you were to pop down to the Cincinnati Apple store with a blank CD, they'd probably help you get the updates. Or you could just use their own free Wi-Fi network to download the updates directly to your MacBook.
