Can't update to 1.7 firmware

Hey Guys,
Having a little trouble, well I have been for awhile.
My Mac Mini does suffer from the well known HDMI issues but I'm unable to get the 1.7 Firmware to install. I've tried updating using the App Store as well as the standalone update direct from Apple. Am I missing something here? Everytime I try to install it, it's still there in the App Store as an available update. Every time. I've just installed the 10.8.3 update hoping that might kick it into life but no change.
I've looked around but can't see to find anyone else who's having the same issue. Could someone shed some light on it?
I'd be willing to go for a clean install if needed, just trying to avoid that where possible.
Thanks.

Wasn't sure what you mean so I had a quick search. Found this from Apple, is this the right thing?
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Thanks

    Well, you're timing is perfect then   Are you eligible for any upgrade pricing from your service provider?
    I skipped over the iPhone 4s, and I am eligible for full upgrade pricing in almost exactly one month from yesterday, so I will be moving to an iPhone 5 next month.

  • Why I can not update my E72 new firmware?

    Hi Friends,
    I have E72 with this specification:
    E72-2, RM 529, version 022.007
    I am trying to install new firmware version 31.023. Although I found out this version is released but my Nokia software updater just say my current firmware (22.007) is up to date! Is it possible? How can I install new firmware?
    Thank you

    Read my posts again. Your product has a product code like you would have known if you've read my posts. Nokia phones get productcodes to tell them apart from if it's branded, where it's branded, what country it is made for (language version), region and so on (simply explained).
    Like your E72 has a productcode, mine E72 I had a while ago had a different product code. Like in Norway there are two big service providers: Telenor and Netcom. an E72 from Telenor would most likely have a different product code from Netcom. Cause those providers will have to decide if they are going to let the users update or not. If Netcom approves the fw from Nokia, but Telenor don't then it would be not fair if telenor customers could update due to the same product code.
    So when you connect your E72 to nokia software updater, it will read your product code. And if you are allowed to update, you will get it, but If example Netcom has not approved it yet, NSU will tell you that there isn't a new update and that your device is up to date.
    The E72 I had is ment for the scandinavian market and has a product code which reflect that - it will give me an fw update containing amongst a few other languages - MY language.
    If All E72's had the same productcode but the code was function like it was today - the updates would contain all languages of the world...
    If your phone is not branded or something it might even be that Nokia is a bit late - that happens too
    I've tried to explain this to be easy, using some examples...
    So if you don't want to wait, go to a Nokia care point and ask if they could update it.

  • Problem I can not Update new Nokia X6 8Gb firmware...

    Problem I can not Update new Nokia X6 firmware Version V.21.0.005,
     can someone tell me where can I get new Nokia Software Update for X6 8Gb,
     I tried to update new firmware, but this is new version is not Aviable 
    where I can get new version in my phone serial number: numbers end
     in ( 2587 ) and when will update available for my phone serial number be
    Thank you 

    Reasons why a phone cannot update:
    1. It is a country variant - country variants often get the updates later, or have updates skipped altogether. A Turkish country variant product code for example, skipped v40 and updated from v31 straight to v50.
    2. It is network branded - phones acquired from network providers or these providers' stores SIM free are branded, and will not get updates until the networks approve and modify the updates to their liking.
    3. Special editions - These special editions are chartered editions and may never get updates unless taken to a Nokia Care center.

  • NOKIA 5610 CAN'T UPDATE NEW FIRMWARE 6.60&7.12!!!!...

    juz now i 've found tat there r 2 new firmwares available for download .BUT it is only for other country!!my software updater oso shown tat my firmware now(4.18)is the newest..y we can't update our phone's firmware while ppl from other country can????

    These questions come up time and time again. Two main factors affect this:
    (1) Updates are phased in around the world because there are numerous regional variants, it is not just a single softwarfe for any particular model worldwide. Some regional variations may lag behind others.
    (2) If the phone has operator-version software instead of standard Nokia software, Nokia must await the approval of the network before it may release updates.

  • How can I update the firmware all at once

    I'm a tech support in a school, approximately our school has over 500 laptops, how can I update the firmware on all laptops at once?

    Apple Configurator is the software you want - and it's free from Apple. However, I'm dubious that firmware can be updated all at once.

    my  ipod touch is 3rd gen how can i update my ios from 4.2.1 to 5.1.1 when i shift + restore and load the ipod3_5.1.1.ios its always say your firmware is not compatible

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

    Did you make sure it was the exact file for your device and the latest version? I just downloaded the latest file for my iPhone4, put it in the folder I mentioned above and it ran the install versus downloading the file. This problem where it times out after downloading is a big Bug within iTunes that has been there ever since IOS 7.0 was released. I wished these apple developers would just fix iTunes. There are a ton of complaints about this issue. I sure miss Steve Jobs running this business, I really feel like it's gone down hill after he left.
    I hope this helps!

  • HT4972 I can't update my Apple iphone. Its model firmware is 4.2.1. What can I do to update my iphone.

    I can't update my Apple iphone. Its model firmware is 4.2.1. What can I do to update my iphone.

    Probably because you have an iPhone 3G and 4.2.1 is the latest update that you can get for that phone - it is too old to support anything further.
    If you have an iPhone 4, then connect the phone to iTunes to update it and ensure that you have the latest version of iTunes too.

  • Erased Firmware can't update since PC won't recognize pla

After i loaded it in, /2 of my songs and all the photos inside were erased. IN addition, the computer did not recognize the mp3 player, i am trying to find the old firmware to try to reload it back in to see whether it works, but i cant find it. Can anyone help?

  • Can't Update Airport Firmware

    Hi...I am having the same issue that this guy did:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5652287
    There is no button that says "Update" on my mac with Airport Utility 6.3.1  How do I update the utility??  I am running OS 10.8.5
    Thanks

    a brody...thanks for the reply.  Unfortunately this still leads to a dead end.  The support article says: 
    Make sure you are connected to the Internet.
    Open AirPort Utility. (Navigate to the /Applications/Utilities folder, to locate it.) AirPort Utility will display a badge to the right of the name of any AirPort base station in your network that has a firmware update available for it.
    Select the AirPort base station you want to update.
    Click the Update button.
    I have no "Update" button...it's just not there.  So how can I update if that button is not showing up?
