Can't update firmware on *80GB Classic

I was prompted to install firmware update 1.1.1 for my 80GB Classic but I keep getting the message that the request has been timed out. On the downloads section of Itunes the estimated download time is showing as up to 3 hours, depsite me being on a fast broadband connection. Previous updates have gone fine.Purchases from Music Store go fine.
I have tried reinstalling Itunes and resetting Ipod but to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas? I am on Windows XP Home.

No you don't need to update the firmware.. but if you have forgotten the password you need to reset the TC.. it will then become available to the network.
Factory reset universal
Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
Soft Reset to get around passwords.
To actually get around the password all you need to do is press the reset button for between 1-4sec seconds.. do not exceed that..
The passwords will then disappear for 5min reverting to default.. ie nothing on wireless and public for main access.
That allows you time to do the setup. Then try again with your ipad etc.
Otherwise find someone with a pc with windows and use the 5.6 utility on that or use an older Mac OS.. yosemite is hopeless.

  • Zen Micro firmware CIRCLE -Can't update firmware w/out driver, can't update driver w/out firmwa

    Hi,
    I know lots of peopl are having the same problem. I have a Zen Micro 5Gb. I have previously updated the firmware to the plays for sure (about 2 years ago) and it's been fine.
    The device had had the hard dri've replaced after it failed, and I need to reload the firmware. I have all the files, I've read all the FAQ and support I used last time (I keep everything) and my notes from 2 years ago say it was easy.
    However. Not now. I figure WMP caused a lot of problems. Right - got that out the way. Fresh installs of XP SP2 is the way to go.
    I have also followed the instructions here:
    http://http://forums.creative.com/showthread.php?t=3478
    But, I keep going round in circles. Can't update firmware without driver, can't update driver without firmware.
    Any driver install I try asks me to connect the device to complete the installation, but, it won't recognise the device because there is no firmware. I try to upload the firmware, and it says there is no device (because there is no driver).
    I have tried multiple machines, with SP2 installed and only WMP9 (never had WMP0).
    I have tried USB , 2, hubs, front ports back ports, again on multiple machines.
    I've even used an XP install on VMware on a MAC (This was the closest to success).
    On the Mac, The player was recognised even in its flash problem state and I could actually start the firmware update. However, it failed to complete successfully.
    Has anyone actually managed to do a firmware update on n old Zen using a 2008 PC? Please help!

    If your player had PlaysForSure firmware, you'll need to download a PlaysForSure firmware version. That should resolve your issues since PlaysForSure does not use a Creative driver but rather a nati've Windows driver. But you will need to have WMP0 installed, WMP9 does not support PlaysForSure.

  • Zen MicroPhoto or Micro stuck in Recovery Mode? Can't update firmware? Try this

    I got these instructions from here:
    http://blog.opsan.com/archi've/2005/09/3/472.aspx
    This is the only thing that worked for me to get my broken Zen MicroPhoto up and running again. It was stuck in Recovery Mode and my XP SP2/WMP laptop wouldn't recognize when trying to load firmware or in Creative Media Explorer or WMP.
    To Fix any problems with broken firmware form attempted "playsforsure"
    firmware updates etc where your pc finds it as a 20mb dri've and it sits
    in recovery mode and does bugger all:
    1. Uninstall all creative software & drivers
    2. Uninstall Media Player and Media Player runtime (will require a
    reboot for each thing). This is done by going to add/remove programs and
    uninstalling (this will put your pc back to wmp0).
    3. Re-install the Zen Driver from the creative website and reboot (I just reloaded Media Explorer using my ZMP install CD).
    4, Plug Zen in.
    5, Make sure you have the firmware update ready, run it but don't click
    the language bit yet), leave the mouse hovering over your language
    selection. (for ZMP, just start firmware exe file, there is no language selection. You can get the firmware update from Creative's site, go to SUPPORT and then DOWNLOADS).
    6. On the Zen- select "reload OS" (on ZMP I believe it is Erase or Reload Firmware, something like that, don't have it in front of me).
    7. As soon as it flashes up "reload new firmware now via USB" click the
    language button
    8. Now the pc should find it and allow you to re-load the
    firmware. (it may take a few attempts)
    9. Once complete, click close and restart the pc. Everything should now
    be fine.
    0. Once all is working, you can re-install WMP and it will work fine.
    I hope this helps somebody.

  • Can't update firmware for Ipod Touch on my PC

    I have a 1st gen Ipod touch & windows xp. I have the latest itunes.
    It will not let me update the firmare, but I can sync fine.
    To update the firmware, I give it to my husband and he can do it from his computer. Then I can sync with no problems. It's just the updating firmware that causes the ipod to crash (1602 error, but occassionally other numbers).
    We thought it might have been that I didn't have USB 2 ports, so I bought a USB 2, 4 port card, and my husband helped me install it. Unfortunately this did not solve the problem and it still wont let me update. I thought perhaps because the usb 2 card came with driver disks, it might need a driver. But I checked the driver disk and it contained drivers for strange things I didn't have. Then I checked the internet and it said that with xp the drivers should be automatic with windows update, and mine is all updated, I checked.
    I've checked my devices manager list, and the list only contains one "enhanced" usb port, even though the card I have has 4 ports, but maybe I am not understanding how the devices list works.
    Just to clarify, have had the same problem with 2 ipod touches. My orignal one got a cracked screen (one crack so covered by warranty) and I received the replacement ipod touch yesterday, and I still could not update the firmware on my PC. My husband had to do it on his PC (vista).
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I really would like to be able to update the firmware on my own PC, it's geting extremely annoying.

    Because I cannot sync my music to my iPhone without updating on my PC which has all my iTunes. Where should I have posted my question to get the help I need?

  • Can't update firmware from 7.4.1 to 7.4.2

    I have an AirPort Express with 802.11n, working fine. Every once in a while, AirPort Utility pops up and tells me that it found that AirPort Express and "This AirPort Express should be updated to a newer firmware version. Current Version: 7.4.1 Available Version: 7.4.2"
    So, I click on Update Firmware... and it seems to do it - meaning that it takes a few minutes, reports success, and restarts the Airport Express.
    BUT - when it comes back up, it is still showing that it is running 7.4.1.
    What can I do to get 7.4.2 on this AirPort Express? What's wrong?
    Thanks!

    I write in this thread because I think my situation is related, even if a bit different.
    I had many problems with the update of my Airport Express. It started noticing I had to update the firmware to the 7.4.2 and but I've never been able doing it. As it worked fine even with the permament notification I didn't thought it was a great problem.
    Then I update my OS from the 10.4.10 to the 10.6 all in one and started having more problems with my Airport Express which was constantly asking to update to the 7.4.2 but it wasn't possible in any way.
    I checked this page in the Apple support
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3486
    and I updated the Utility Airport app to the 5.5.1 but it didn't help.
    The worst level of problem is that I tried to link another two people (one with a mac 10.5 and one with a pc) to the wireless net and there was not access possibility.
    After a reset of the airport the utility app was almost totally blocked and closed the access even from my mac notifing that my WAP password was incorrect.
    At this time there are no ways to change this situation.
    I'm trying to understand what's the real problem and - if someone has suggestions - how to solve it.

  • Can't update firmware on my early 2011 MBP

    I haven't been able to update firmware on my laptop. It will download and attempt, but when the computer restarts, it restarts over and over and over again on its own until I hard power down. Then when it restarts, it starts up like normal but doesn't install the firmware. I had installed Kingston memory at one point and when I presented this issue to the Genius bar, they kept it a few days and tested it with "known working ram" and they were able to update the last firmware revision. So I ditched the Kingston and put in Centon, which claims full compatibility. Now, firmware 2.7 is giving me the same issue. Is it really the RAM? Anyone else who used 3rd party memory having this same problem?
    Help!!

    Hello EveryBody To update your Nokia 2700, DON'T USE "nokia software update" directly. You'll have to install NOKIA OVI SUITE, then sign in with your account ou register. Afterwards update your 2700 via the update option of OVI SUITE. I just tested it and it works

  • 80gb Classic - registration loop and can't update firmware to 1.0.2

    I finally talked my dad into getting an iPod and now he regrets the decision.
    We downloaded the latest version of iTunes, set up his library on an external hard drive, and spent several days ripping his extensive CD collection to the hard drive. When the time came to finally sync the iPod, everything went well until I clicked "update" to update the firmware to 1.0.2. It downloaded OK, but when it tried to install the update, we got the following error message: "The iPod Could not be updated. You do not have enough access priviledge for this operation." When we disconnected and reconnected the iPod to try it again, we had to go through the registration process again. This has happened each time we try to sync the iPod. This is on a Vista machine, and my dad was logged in with administrator access, so we're kind stumped as to what the problem may be. We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, and resetting the iPod, to no avail. Any suggestions?

    We have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes again, and this time it seems to have solved the problem. Now we're having another one which I'm currently scanning the forum for solutions. Now he's getting repeated albums in the album list view. The same two albums are repeated on the iPod 13 times, where they are only in iTunes once. We tried using iTunes to restore the iPod, and we got the same "insufficient access priviledge" error message. AAAAARGH!!!
    But in answer to your question, Mobbie, I believe we have another computer we can use. Since the music is on an external hard drive, it shouldn't be too hard to try that to fix this new problem.

  • Can't update firmware 1.6 on my mid 2011 Macbook Air

    After I install this firmware, Macbook Air shows spinning icon forever and never reboot.  Only way to recover from there is to power off and reboot by aborting update.  Is there any clue on this?

    Is this going to be an issue
    As per Apple, no,  it will work.   however you should get the correct 45W charger.
