5g Ipod. Problem with Firmware 1.2.1

Like many out there, I upgraded my iTunes software to ver. 7 and subsequently the iPod firmware to ver. 1.2.1. This resulted in the iPod "freezing" problem many others have reported. I've gone through the exercise (twice) of uninstalling iTunes 7, installing the version of iTunes on my installation disk (I believe it's earlier than 6.0.5) and then installing firmware provided in Updater 2006-6-28 (1.1.2). Problem is that iTunes doesn't recognize anything in my music or video library and the only way (so far) to solve this is to upgrade back to Itunes 7.0.2 but not to upgrade to firmware 1.2.1. My iPod now works but when I sync to iTunes, many of the videos (TV shows) I've purchased won't transfer to my iPod. The reason given is that my iPod software is too old. This has also occured with any new video purchase.
Has anyone experienced something similar and is there a solution to this problem.

I am having this problem as well. It was irritating me so bad that i just reverted to 1.0 since i don't have any other version availible because itunes doesn't save the updates. I tried all of the 5"R"s and it still locked up as soon as i booted my iPod up.

Xcode 3.2.1 and ipod touch with firmware 3.1.2

Hi,
Recently my first application was approved.
I wanted to start testing my app also on ipod touch. I bought an ipod touch with firmware 3.1.2 (7D11).
I had to upgrade my OS to 10.6 (snow leopard) and i also downloaded the Xcode 3.2.1 .
My problem is that my ipod is not supported. I've created the proper certification and there's a green light next to my ipod icon in the organizer window in xcode.
The message i see is : Xcode cannot find the software image to install this version (and the "restore ipod" icon is grayed out).
What do i do ?
Thanks.

Ooops.. sorry. my bad.
provisioning profile problem.
sorry.

Is there a problem with firmware 4.30.5 for the WRT54G?

Hello experts,
I have read in this forum that there are problems with firmware version 4.20.5 for the WRT54G.
Is this so? And if so, where might one find the details?
Thanks.

There is now a new firmware update available for the AirportExtremeBase. I had a similar problem as all of you, so I hope this will fix the problem!

Problem with firmware 1.2.1

I updated my 5th generation 80GB iPod (actually 5.5) over the weekend, and now I see some erratic behavior. For certain songs, the iPod simply stops playing the song and gets stuck at that point. I can still move around, and go to the next/previous song, so it's not a total freeze, but the iPod refuses to play the affected song.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior? It has already happened twice, with different songs, but always the same songs, so it's not a random issue but probably a problem with the mp3 files themselves, even though they play perfectly on iTunes.

Sorry for long post, Probably help though
Hey, i've had problems with the new firmware (1.2). I have a 60gb which came with firmware 1.0 , when i updated it to 1.2 i noticed performance problems. When I first did it i found that switching songs was sluggish. It also, when left for awhile in pause mode when plugging back in it would freeze. Would have to turn off and back on untill start playing. I decide to talk to buddies who also have fifth gen ipods and they never heard of that. But all of them have had problems with the 1.2 update for playing videos over 1.5 hours.. When watching files over that length the ipod will reset itself. Also said it would do that while playing songs. I decided to downgrade my ipod to fimware 1.0 and seemed to improve it's performance. I think the new update has a problem with the 60gb ipod's cause i downgraded my buddies as well and his is perfect now. I just found the updater from 2005-11-17 on the internet through google. Prob why they don't have 60gb's ipods anymore. Also heard video playing problems with 30gb's too.

5300: Problem with firmware upgrade

Hi,
I have Nokia 5300 Xpressmusic with firmware version 4.7. I have recently download Nokia Software Updater and tried to update my phone via USB cable connection. The software runs fine, it identifies my phone correctly, checks for update & tells me that V5.5 is available & downloads it successfully. The problem is that when I press the 'Upgrade' button, 1st it reboots my phone in 'Test Mode', then the 'Preparing installation' window remains on the screen for a couple of minutes & then it gives out an error saying "Connection to phone lost". I've tried reconnecting my cable but it still gives out the same error. Fortunately when I took the batteries out & reinserted & started my phone, it turned on successfully with the previous firmware version. But I still cant get it upgraded. I switched to another PC & tried it there but it still gives out the same error at the same stage. Kindly help me out with this, what is going on here?

Reporting a problem with firmware and secondary ca...

Hi there,
I would like to report a problem with the 202.12.11 firmware for the Nokia E75.
My secondary camera works fine with the normal camera application until I make a video call. The picture for the video call using the secondary camera is just white and blank.
After making the video call, the secondary camera won't work with the default camera application. I can switch between video and image mode but all I see is my camera wallpaper.
It's definitely not the hardware because the secondary camera will work again after reinstalling the firmware .... until I use it in a video call that is!
I have also had no problems with video calls using the older firmware.
Please advise and I hope you can issue a patch soon.

I had the exact same problem. I eventually used their "Express Lane" problem reporting, and they refunded me the cost of the episode. (???) Um, hello, that's not what I was asking for... can I just have my episode #3 please? Hopefully they'll get around to uploading the right show eventually, and possibly not use the Swedish Chef as an intern to manage their upload queue. #borkborkbork

Could not install 10.5.3 for ipod -- Problem with the windows installer

"There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personel or package vendor."
What program needs to run?
Apple has 68 billion dollars in the bank and they can't get a program running?

It's more like your computer can't get it running.
What have you tried to do to troubleshoot the problem? By the way, it might be more helpful to post this in the iTunes forum since it's related to the iTunes application as this forum is for the iPod Classic.

IPod Touch with Firmware 2.0 Problems

I bought the Firmware 2.0 Update for my 8gb iPod Touch and everything has been great except some of my apps crash. For example, whenever I open my mail app, it sits there for three seconds and then crashes back to the Homescreen.
What should I do to fix this?
Thanks

My touch was perfect before I did the 2.0 update. Now, loses WiFi, Safari lags, etc.
Anyway, this is the wrong place to post. There's an iPod Touch forum here.
Near the top of this page, under APPLE DISCUSSIONS, where it says:

Backup Problem with Firmware Change

*I'm running Windows Vista with my iPod Touch 2G.
I just downgraded my firmware from 3.1.1 to 3.0 but now when I try to backup my old iPod backup it tells me it cannot backup the data because the (recently downgraded firmware) software is too old.
Is there a way to backup my old applications and music without sticking with 3.1.1 firmware?
Or is the only option putting my apps back manually onto my iPod? I had both my apps and my music backed up before I reverted to 3.0 firmware.
Thanks for your time in advance!

Just cancel it. its just downloading and not installing to phone yet so no harm will happen. Something on your computer is creating problems for your download. Most likely the AV and firewall software of the LAN settings.

Problem with firmware in a Zen Jukebox 3

Well, I've got a mp3 player, a Creative Zen Jukebox with a HD of 30GB. The other day I started it and it began to re-built the music library, but it blocks in the middle of the process and shows a message: firmware problem. And here it sto
ps.
I can not access the HD because my computer doesn't recognize it, since after the "firmware problem" it stands completely block. I've tried to download the upgrade of the firmware, and it seems to have been installed, but it stills giving me the same problem... Any idea? I'm desperate.

Can you start in Rescue Mode and do a cleanup?
There is a sticky thread showing how to do this.

RV180 (wired only) problems with firmware 1.0.4.14, fails to boot correctly + LAN ports power off during boot (downgrading to 1.0.3.10 = fine again).

Hi All,
A few months ago when 1.0.4.14 was released I was quick to update to this version from 1.0.3.10 but very quickly ran into issues.
Bit of background info... I am not doing anything complex with this box, basic IP4 network over all LAN ports, no VLANs, firewall enabled and allowing 2 port access rules to a static IP address. Any static IPs are assigned manual at host level but all other devices receive DHCP IP addresses. I don’t host VPN on this RV180 but I do with another. Routing VPN has no issues. WAN is connected to another switch provided by my ISP who provides DHCP IP Address with their DNS etc. Only LAN ports 1 and 2 are connected, port 1 to my Wireless AP (AP mode passing all requests to the RV180, DHCP etc.), port 2 connects to a 8 port Smart Switch (but all 'Smart' features are currently not in use, so basic switching only). All other settings on the RV180 are on recommended defaults.
Everything is working fine on 1.0.3.10 but I have all kinds of issues after updating to 1.0.4.14. Here are the actions and experiences I had...
1) Backup my RV180 config to txt file.
2) Navigate to the firmware upgrade page and follow steps to complete the upgrade process from 1.0.3.10 to 1.0.4.14. *router does the normal process of upgrading*
3) RV180 reboots to complete but doesn’t come back up even after waiting 5-10 mins. LAN ports enable during boot up (link lights on) but after about 2mins turn off (no link lights). WAN light is on alongside the Power Light.
4) Power cycle even with rest... Same results.
5) Reset the RV180 to default settings. I can sometimes get the unit to boot up and the LAN remains active and powered up. The web UI is VERY slow compared with 1.0.3.10. Internet sometimes works and sometimes doesn't (I would expect it all work without issue on default settings).
6) I repeat this a few times, various resets, powered off waiting periods, etc. but I always have issues. I did manage to get some log file information and the Kernel appears in the Alert, Error and also the Warning logs (please see attached files).
7) I gave up at this point. No major issues like this reported on the internet from a few google searches etc. So I then reset to defaults (1.0.4.14), downgrade to 1.0.3.10 and finally reset to defaults again + restore backup config settings (with some manual changes).
The router has remained like this and seem to be working fine, but I would like any security improvements from 1.0.4.14 firmware on my device.
Anyone able to help, have the same issue or can advise me in any other ways?
I see 1.0.3.10 isn’t displayed as a firmware download on the standard support page for the RV180 now. Only 1.0.2.6 and 1.0.4.14. Do I need to downgrade again to 1.0.2.6 before upgrading to the latest version?
Regards,
~FAZ~

Hi,
I recently bought a RV180 router and immediately I encountered the same problem; practically I am not able to access the web GUI.
The PC is directly connected to the router, nothing else is connected; the TCP/IP configuration is as follows:
PC: 192.168.1.100
RV180: 192.168.1.1
GATEWAY: 192.168.1.1
SUBNET MASK: 255.255.255.0
Once the router is turned on, the power LED flashes fastly, the Ethernet LED is on but after few minutes it disappears and the PC detects a disconnection of the Ethernet cable.
The router is not pingable and, as I said, the web interface is not reachable.
I have tried to power cycle the router, to reset it (pressing the reset button for more than 3 second and for more than one minute), to access the rescue mode and download a new firmware through TFTP, but nothing worked.
Few times, after many boot and reset trials,I was able to access the web interface and in one of these occasions I updated the firmware to 1.0.4.14 but once the router is powered off the problem arises again at the next power on.
I have not tried yet to downgrade to an older firmware version.
Can you suggest any solution? thank you.

A lot of things not working when iPod Sleeps with Firmware 2.2

Anyone else had this problem, or know of any workarounds? Things like the MPR radio, aSleep, WhiteNoise, and BinauralBeat are shutting off when the ipod screen is off, and turn back on as soon as i press the button again (no unlock swipe required) Basically they're only on while the backlight is on. It seems like my other apps work though, such as Pandora, and AOL radio, so i dont know if its just something that the others will need to update or what i guess. Anyone else having problems like this though?

i would expect u will see some app updates to correct the problem, rather than apple creating yet another "fix". Anytime there are OS updates, expect some glitches with some apps. Hopefully your fav apps will be updated very soon.

Wireless Router MSI RG60SE - Problem With Firmware

Hi, I have firmware 3.5.3 on my router MSI RG60SE. I updated this firmware to other version from here:
h t t p://faenl.msi.com/index.php?dir=Networking/RG60SE/
Problem is, that I dont know, what kind of firmware is it. When I finish updatig firmware, I dont connet to admin mode, I dont see wifi network of router. Router is maybe broken.
I am affraid, that the firmware is some special kind of firmware. Because in one of .rar files, which are including of the firmware web (h t t p://faenl.msi.com/index.php?dir=Networking/RG60SE/firmware/), contain picture. On the picture is depicted print screen from admin mode of the router RG60SE and there is available option ENABLE BRIDGES. In old firmware this option I never seen. Here is a picture with these option:
h t t p://img268.imageshack.us/img268/8885/nlw.bmp
Please, advise me, what am I doing with it. Because, none of my devices cant connect. And I dont know connect to admin mode of router. Thanks

No idea why it blocks it.
Silly is that it does work upto the last trace.
Have you tried a ping with a larger byte size?
You do know that ping is working with extreme small blocks by default.
I just noticed Google refuses to accept large packets!
Have you tried other routes except Google?

MAJOR problem with firmware 7.1.2 USB drive can't reconnect

I have only seen this brought up a couple of times but want to make sure we bring this to Apple's attention and they don't ignore this problem and get it fixed immediately.
Problem: If for some reason your computer looses a connection with your airport extreme (maybe due to some type of interference, loose internet connection and airport cycles itself..) without either you shutting down your computer or dismounting the drive you will be unable to reconnect to the drive again. A variety of errors will occur when trying to reconnect with the main one being "password, username etc. are invalid"
There are 2 solutions that I am aware of to fix this problem once it occurs, one is temporary (works until the airport drops your wireless connection again) and the other one is the current permanent fix.
1- Temporary Fix- unplug the usb drive from the airport extreme and plug it into your Macbook/computer. This will cause the drive to mounted correctly. "Eject" the drive and dismount it. Than re-plug the drive back into the airport extreme. Wait a few seconds and than re-start your computer. The drive will again work and should show up. automatically
2-Permanent fix-Downgrade your firmware/version to 7.1.1. Do this from the manual setup screen in the airport utility. Click on the word "Version," This will cause a pop-up box to show. In the "download version" choose version 7.1.1 and wait for it to install. Once the install is complete and you are back to version 7.1.1, re-start your computer/macbook and the drive should appear automatically.
The bad part about all of this is that I spent 2 days - 3 hours on the phone with a so called applecare "specialist" and they could not figure this out. One person told me there was no way to downgrade a firmware version. All 3 people could not think "out of the box" and just wanted to help me with a random dropped internet connection. I really could care less about the random drop internet connection, the problem is that the new firmware version causes you to loose complete access to your drive. So good job to those of you the are smarter than most of the apple support team and figured this out on your own.
List if you too are having this problem and already downgraded to version 7.1.1.

I didn't really think about it until I actually needed access to the drive tonight and then spent several hours pulling my hair out, setting up my base station with new passwords and user access etc over and over and over again. Thanks for the solution, you can't know what a relief it was to find it wasn't something I messed up myself.
So yes reverting to 7.1.1 gave me back my USB drives.
Thanks,
J.
