Bootcamp needs a firmware update that i already have

So i try to tun botocamp but its says i need to download a firmware update. ive already installed mac osx 10.4.7 and i cant find any other downloads on top of that. any ideas?

The firmware you need can be found here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imacearly2006firmwareupdate101.html
It doesn't show up in Software update, so that probably explains why you've never seen it.

  • Third party routers that need no firmware update

    What are the best third party WiFi routers with LAN ethernet ports that need no firmware update to work with 10.4.8 and Windows XP?

    Actually the extra ethernet ports is paramount.
    Otherwise you don't know who is being secure to
    whom. You end up having two routers to setup for
    configuration of security. Simplicity is
    important, since I want to be able to help set it up
    for the friend, and forget it.
    ?? That doesn't make any sense - I think you're missing something fundemental here. The extra ethernet ports are on the LAN side of the secure connection. The firewall in the router isolates the internal, LAN network (wireless + ethernet) from the external WAN (aka the big bad internet). Whether or not you have a switch attached to one of the LAN ports makes no difference, security-wise - you are in control of the devices connected to the LAN side of the router. WEP/WPA/WPA2 security controls who is able to connect to the wireless LAN.
    From a security standpoint, there is ABSOLUTELY no difference between buying a router with eight lan ports and buying a router with four lan ports plus plugging in a five-port switch to one of the lan ports. It's exactly the same thing.
    What you don't control is the WAN side of things - the internet itself. You certainly wouldn't want to connect the switch to the WAN port on the router, at least not unless you wanted to run, say, a web server that is exposed to the internet itself. This wouldn't be a good idea in any case - there are better ways to set this up as well (either by setting up a DMZ, or by setting up port forwards)
    There is absolutely no reason why you would want or need two routers for this setup - this is only an issue for extremely large networks.
    The WRT54G has 1 WAN port and four LAN ports. You can have four hardwired devices (computers, printers, switches, etc) on these LAN ports - they are protected from the internet by the firewall in the router. You can also have any number of wireless devices on this same router; these, as well, are on the LAN side of the router, and are therefore protected.
    Adding a switch to the LAN side of the router has absolutely no impact on security. No additional routers would be required.

  • Advice needed on firmware update-

    Hi everyone… I have successfully replaced the HD on my kid’s imac G3 [yay!] but the [secondhand] disk is running a very old version of OS X [10.0.4, I think…]. Can anyone let me know if I need to carry out any firmware updates before installing Tiger? I’d be so grateful for your advice… many thanks!

    Hello,
    If you need firmware updates, then you'll have to re-install OS 9.1 (or 8.x or whatever version came with your system) to install the updates.
    You cannot update the firmware from OS X on the older iMac G3 systems.
    If you already have the latest firmware revision, then you may not need to worry about re-installing OS 9 to install the firmware updates at all.
    Take a look at this discussion here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2707137&#2707137
    That discussion will show you how to check the version of Firmware that you currently have.
    This will help to determine if you already do have the latest version installed.
    Keep in mind that the firmware revisions shown in this discussion relate to the iMac G3 333 MHz system.
    If you have an iMac G3 350 MHz or faster (the ones with the slot-loading CD-ROM Drive), then your firmware revision numbers should be 4.19.
    The firmware version / update for the slot-loading CD-ROM drive machines is here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75130
    For the older iMac 333 MHz or other iMacs with a tray-loading CD-ROM Drive, the update you would need is here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60384
    Note, that you will need to re-install which-ever version of Mac OS that came with your computer to install these firmware updates.
    But, if you find that you already have the latest firmware version for your computer, then you can skip re-installing OS 9 (or whatever came with your system) all-together.
    If you cannot make sense out of the numbers you find when comparing them to the update, let me know what the numbers are that you find, and I'll see if I can help you out.
    If you do re-install OS 9 or OS 8.6 (whichever is needed for your system's updates), then also consider getting the other updates for your system while you are at it:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58174
    You'll find updates for your modem, and CD-ROM drive there.
    I hope this helps.

  • *** E51 GREAT PHONE BUT NEED A FIRMWARE UPDATE... ...

    Hi
    TO THE NOKIA FIRMWARE UPDATE STAFF:
    I bought that great phone NOKIA E51 but it needs a FIRMWARE UPDATE because the built'in camera gives photo(and videos too!) in VERY VERY "green" color that's too bad (MY OLD 6630 , so only 1,3 megapixel is best in photo quality against my actually E51..!)
    *** SO PLEASE REMOVE THE GREEN COLOR TENDENCY IN THE PHOTO! ***
    ANOTHER AND LAST problem I have noticed during mine along E51 testing is the integrate REAL PLAYER VERSION has VERY VERY big problems during *MP4* VIDEO PLAYBACK (MP4 VIDEOS MADE ON PURPOSE FOR MOBILE), VIDEO APPEARS In jerks (ESPECIALLY IN FULL SCREEN!) And SOME TIME IT BLOCKS DURING PLAYBACK!
    *** SO PLEASE A NEW VERSION OF REAL PLAYER IN THE NEXT E51 FIRMWARE ***
    FOR ALL THE REST THE E51 PHONE IS GREAT AND PRICE TOO (200€ IN ITALY), I BELIVE IT'LL BE A BEST SELLER -BUT- ONLY IF THE PROBLEMS I LISTED ABOVE WILL BE CORRECTED!!
    i got latest firmware version: 100.34.20

    Hi,
    I wrote to Nokia regarding this issue using the Nokia India site, and the Nokia for Business site. I also sent an email to [email protected]
    Here is the text of the email:
    Hi,
    I bought my Nokia E51 four days back, and I am VERY happy with the
    phone. However, I feel that there are some shortcomings with the
    phone, which need to be addressed by firmware upgrades. I am listing
    them here:
    1) The camera has a VERY noticeable green tint
    2) The video playback in full screen mode using RealPlayer is VERY
    slow and choppy
    3) In the "Missed Calls" part of the call log, there is NO way to
    determine WHICH number of the contact was the call missed - "Mobile
    Number", "Tel.(home)", "Tel.(office)" or what? The only way to
    determine is to call back using the same screen, which is VERY
    counterintuitive!
    You can have a look at some more people agreeing with me here -
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&​thread.id=14028
    and the problem 3) described in detail here -
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&​thread.id=15956
    Apart from these 3 problems, I am VERY VERY happy with the E51 - it
    lives up to all the promises it makes! Way to go, Nokia! I request you
    to address those 3 issues as fast as possible!
    Thanks and regards,
    I request ALL other users of the phone to please contact Nokia similarly, to have these issues resolved ASAP. If someone can suggest more ways of contacting Nokia regarding this issue, please tell me! Thanks!

  • After installing an SSD into my optical bay, I've found out I need EFI Firmware Update 2.2. I can only find 2.3 which is not supported on my Mac. What can I do?

    After installing an SSD into my optical bay, I've found out I need EFI Firmware Update 2.2. I can only find 2.3 which is not supported on my Mac. What can I do?

    You do not want EFI 2.2, it bricked many 2011 MacBook Pro machines.
    EFI 2.3 is the fix. Software Update should install it if you need it, but it goes to the boot drive as that's where the hidden EFI resides.
    Check out this link of machines and their EFI versions
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
    Also if your SSD should be in the hard drive bay as it makes a better boot/applicaitions drive, not a good storage drive as it wears out with repeated use and is not "scrubbable" like a regular hard drive
    The hard drive should be in the optical bay and used as a storage drive, you have things all messed up inside your machine, Apple doesn't support or expect the optical drive to be used as such to begin with, then as a boot drive is just asking for trouble. So use the optical bay as storage and not as a boot bay.
    Also you can't install OS X or Windows or use a Firmware restore disk because it only works from a internal optical drive, which you have removed.
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT2213
    You need to learn all about cloning etc., as you have no other means to boot the machine.

    You need to buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store. You don't need Mountain Lion.

    iTunes purchases cannot be transferred between accounts. If you no longer wish to use the old account at all, you should delete those apps and repurchase them with the new account.

  • I just upgraded to Firefox 4.0 only to find my Roboform disappeared - it takes me to the site to buy a license that I already have

    I just upgraded to Firefox 4.0 only to find my Roboform disappeared - When I click on Roboform Toolbar, Firefox takes me to the site to buy a license that I already have. What happened to my Roboform Toolbar, which was working and now it's there?

    Depends upon the version of Roboform you have. Roboform Pro v.6 needs to be updated to v.7 for Firefox 4.0 compatibility.
    If you are using the '''Full RoboForm Toolbar''', install the Roboform adapter for '''Firefox 3.0 - 4 beta X''' from here: <br />

  • You need a higher version, but I already have higher version

    I am getting this message when I try and open and modify a saved "fillable" form:
    "You need a higher version of acrobat (v6.0 or higher) to fill this form"
    It then tells me that my current version is 10.103, obviously higher than the v6.0 they are demanding, and then there is a non-clickable or copyable url of where to go to update my reader.  Attempts to "update" tell me that I already have the latest version and no updates are available.  I have opened this form and updated it every quarter (excise tax form from the state) for the past two years, and have had no issues until now.
    Also, once I have clicked OK on that javascript pop up window on open, it covers the top half of the document with yellow box stating "You need Acrobat Reader 6.x or higher to . . . " and the rest is cut off by the print instructions, but I assume it ends with " . . . to fill this form".
    Any help appreciated.

  • I tried to sync my phone and received this message: "iTunes was unable to load data class info from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." Now it doesn't sync calendars because it says I need to download Outlook, which I already have

    I have synced my phone to my computer several times. This time i received this message: "iTunes was unable to load data class infor from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." It says if I want to sync calendar I must install Outlook to my computer?? Why does iTunes not recongnize that I already have Outlook installed on my computer?

    This worked for me...i did a restore on my computer to take it to a date prior to the last update i did on itunes and now it works just fine.  Everytime i do a backup it syncs my Outlook! When a request comes up saying there's a new version of itunes click here to download the latest one DON'T do it.
    Here's how to do a restore on your computer:
    Create a restore point
    A restore point is a representation of a stored state of your computer's system files. You can use a restore point to restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. Restore points are automatically created by System Restore weekly and when System Restore detects the beginning of a change to your computer, such as when you install a program or a driver.
    System image backups stored on hard disks can also be used for System Restore, just like the restore points created by system protection. Even though system image backups contain both your system files and personal data, your data files won't be affected by System Restore. For more information about system images, see What is a system image? You can create a restore point manually at any time by following the steps below.
    Go to the Windows website to watch the video. (1:08)
      Click to open System. 
    In the left pane, click System protection. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    Click the System Protection tab, and then click Create.
    In the System Protection dialog box, type a description, and then click Create.
    For more information about System Restore, see What is System Restore?
    I HOPE THIS WORKS!
