Any way to install EFI 1.7 ?

Hello,
Is there really any way to install the updated EFI 1.7 in a Macbookpro Early 2008 ?
I'm sure that the controller is compatible with the SATA II and i really need an update of the EFI in my computer.
On the apple updated EFI page there is even NO Update for my computer model and no information about the EFI ! What's that ???
If someone found a solution for enabling the Sata II in that computer model; please let me know !
Thank you.

Sorry to have post in the wrong part of the forum.
But i whant to know why there is no Firmware update.
Today SSD are really faster than Hard drive and my computer model is limited by Software at 1.5Gb/s but from the chipset (Hardware) ICH8-M AHCI it is capable of 3Gb/s.
(i have screenshots to prove that this chipset can run at 3Gb/s if you dont trust me.)
So, when you say that apple said that it doesn't need an update, i really don't understand how they can say such thing today.
And because it is a "pro" machine wich cost me over 2K€ i think it really deserve, since the controller is capable of better performances.
And still, me and others custommer will really appreciate that update to run their computer faster.
Thank you for your understanding.

  • Any way to install Vista in 10.4 other than Boot Camp?

    Since Boot Camp for Tiger went to the chopping block, is there any way to install Vista on my old-ish iMac? My brother's a gamer....

    I don't think so.
    The closest thing you can do would be getting VMware Fusion
    It's a parallel so it runs right on your mac side
    It's not quite as fast as native speed, but it's about 90%-95% and works really well for everything except gaming
    There's a free beta out now, so you might wanna try that

  • Any way to install Windows 7 by copying the install disk to a HD first?

    Any way to install Windows 7 by copying the install disk to a HD first?
    I have HDs installed in my optical bays.
    I can copy the Win 7 install disk to a new freshly formatted HD if needed.
    I am unable to install from my Firewire DVD.
    It will not work.
    I have a NTFS partition ready to go on an internal drive.
    If there is a way to do this I would appreciate any help.
    I really do not want to put my DVD back in if it can be avoided.
    Thanks ... Ken

    I've done an install off a hard drive, but I was already running Windows on a separate drive partition.
    People have put DVD on flash memory, though that is 'maybe' and depends on booting from USB devices.
    I routinely put OS X Install DVD on a firewire hard drive and installs quickly (to say nothing of booting in under 60 sec).

  • Bought two audition cs6 licenses one for pcs and one for mac, not finding any way to install on mac

    I bought two audition cs6 licenses, one for our pcs and one for our macs...not finding any way to install on our macs...when I run the cd it only has programs for windows...nothing for mac...I have my mac serial number, but no install app...

    If you don't have the Mac files with the disc you can probably still download the installation files and use your serial number from the purchase to activate.  Here is a link to CS6 downloads:
    Download CS6 products
    You should check with Adobe support regarding getting the disc copy of the files if that is what you purchased, unless they know something that would result in the files already being in your possession thru that disc somehow.

    You need to install the DVD version of iWork. If desired, ask the Mac App Store support for assistance.

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • Is there any way to install age of empires 2 for mac onto macbook pro?

    I recently acquired the age of empires 2 for mac game and tried to install it but it doesn't seem to read it. I have a 13" macbook pro (10.9.4 mavericks). Is there any way I could install and play this game on my laptop?

    Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for Apple hardware made before 1998. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more active and appropriate forum for your product.

  • Any way to install Keynote without Pages etc? (iWork DVD)

    I have the iWork DVD here. At the moment I only need keynote and I'm a little pressed for disk space these days, so I was wondering is there any way to isolate keynote and install it on its own without Pages and Numbers?
    I looked through the install dialogue but there was no customize option, I tried exploring the mpkg but nothing jumps out as being specifically Keynote.
    Can it be done?

    You explored the mpkg with what, exactly?
    You could just install the whole thing, then remove Pages and Numbers manually.

  • Any way to install Leopard drivers without disc?

    My MacBook Pro is currently running the Leopard OS, but I made the mistake of leaving the discs at home - nearly 3000 miles away, in a sealed storage box. Yes, I made a stupid mistake in packing it away. I'm trying to get Boot Camp set up, and to get the necessary drivers, I need the install disc.
    My question is - is there any way I can get the drivers installed without using the Leopard install disc? Is there a download somewhere that can help me with that? Or am I totally out of luck?

    Sadly, I've been through this too..although, my Mac OS X DVDs were a mere two miles from home. That being said...two miles feels like 3000 when it's -5 degrees fahrenheit outside.
    The most recommended alternative I'm aware of is to grab them through the world of BitTorrent.
    In my case, I ended up downloading individual drivers from the hardware vendors sites...the downside to this is that you'll be missing a lot of the valuable Apple software that's part of the Boot Camp software installer. That got the basics working (video, chipset & networking, etc.) until I remembered to bring the DVD home from work to install actual Boot Camp software.

  • Is there any way to install adobe flash player for my ipad?

    Is there any way to get adobe flash player on my ipad?

    No, flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.
