Cannot upgrade an AP1242 to LWAP using the upgrade tool 3.4

I have installed the tool on an XP laptop.
If I configure the tool to use an external tftp server then I get upgrade failed.
"Unable to Load the LWAPP Recovery Image on to the AP"
If I use the built in tftp server I get a msgbox with "C:\Program Files\Cisco Systems\Upgrade Tool\images\c1240-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11JX1.tar - LWAPP Recovery Image is not a valid one".
This is the log output

I see from other posts that JX image is required but it is not working for me. Can anyone help?

If I try to extract the tar file direct to flash I get this:
Loading c1240-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11JX1.tar from 10.1.1.1 (via BVI1): !
%Tar checksum error in fd 0
ERROR: Failed to extract from archive file tftp://10.1.1.1/c1240-rcvk9w8-tar.123-11JX1.tar
Maybe the files are damaged but I have dowloaded them all from cisco.com yesterday.

Cannot upgrade an AP to LWAP using the upgrade tool on Windows 7

Hello,
I have two Windows 7 computers and neither one will successfully upgrade a 1242 AP to LWAP. However, I go to a coworker's XP machine and run the tool without issues. On Windows 7 I keep receiving the error message of ACL or Firewall is blocking. I have added rules and then even tried disabling the firewalls completely on both computers and still no success. Help!
Thanks,
Kristen Woodard

As an aside here, if the AP are newer, manufactured after 6/2005(Has a MIC and not a SSC), you can do a normal archive download command to run the upgrade to the recovery image. Can even be scripted to run multiple times via shell/cron

I have just upgraded to the new OS X V. 10.10.3 but cannot access my iCloud Drive documents using the resident Pages and Numbers software on my MacBook Pro. Help needed.

I have just upgraded to the new OS X V. 10.10.3 but cannot access my iCloud Drive documents using the resident Pages and Numbers software on my MacBook Pro. Help is needed to access those documents using the resident software on my MacBook Pro rather than the Beta software on iCloud.com.

I have iCloud Drive set on the Finder sidebar and use that to open the Numbers Spreadsheet on iCloud.

Best.

Since then I have facing this troublesome issue. Thanks

Uninstall the other AV software. They are not needed. All they do is cause trouble like you are having now.
If you have been forcing the Mac to shut down with the power switch you may nave corrupted your disk. You should repair it with disk Utilty to remove any corruption the shutdwons may have cased.

I upgraded to 20gb iCloud but it isn't enough to back up. I get constant error messages saying there is no backup space and I've not been able to use the upgrade. Apple promised to refund then didn't. Please help is there anyway I can use this space?

If you were told they would refund the price for the iCloud storage - Contact AppleCare and ask to speak with a senior advisor. Have the case number for the promised refund available.
If you are trying to update your device, but you don't have sufficient space to download and install the update, you need to delete content from your device. Buying storage in iCloud does not add space to the device which is what you need.
You can always update using a computer with iTunes installed - this method is faster, and will allow you to make a backup on the local computer (Local backups restore faster than iCloud backups).

Correct. You don't use iTunes to get photos off the iPhone.

Thank you for the answers so far, but I'll make one correction: I said earlier that the Boston Globe website, boston.com, does not have a mobile site, and I would need to visit their regular website on my iPhone. Actually, I just found out that boston.com has a mobile site, so I'd obviously use that instead of the regular site. By doing that, I'd save a ton of data (I think). Does that change your answers?

I use photoshop CS3. Shortly, when I try to use one of the tools, they react only with the eraser. So I cannot use the other tools. I tried to reset in general preferences all warnings. Then I can use the tools again, but with the next picture I get stuck

Have you tried resetting all tools?

I cannot use the type tool in Photoshop CC it goes black. Why?

What goes black?
What OS version are you using?
And have you updated your video card drivers from the GPU maker's website? (bugs in video drivers being the most common cause of display issues)

HSL Panel cannot control individual colors in the photos. Using the target tool and the colors change in the entire photo.?

HSL Panel. When using the targeted tool I cannot control individual colors in the photo. In Luminance the entire photo is changing not just one area?

Yes, that's the way it works. The target tool is simply a way to pick a colour to modify, but all colours like that one, no matter where they are in the image, will be modified.

Using the upgrade option ...

I have already upgraded my MacBook to Leopard - I used the clean install option and backed up all my files ... my brother is now interested in upgrading but does not have the time to backup everything on his computer, if he uses the upgrade option will it keep all his preferences and everything? ... he basically wants to be able to install Leopard and then continue using his Mac without having to redo anything he already had setup on it (if that makes any sense), is that possible?

If you don't have time to make a full backup, you don't have time to install Leopard.
A backup takes less than an hour. A bad install takes forever to recover from without a backup.
People who don't have time may make mistakes. And never upgrade a system that you need on a day-to-day basis unless you really have the time. And a backup.
Theoretically, on a well taken care of machine, you can do a simple upgrade (I did 2 - one on each of my MBPs - but I still had a backup) and it might work. If it fails then the option is an archive and install but the archive will be over a failed install - it won't be a virgin archive. If that fails you have to do an erase and install and without a backup you have saved nada, zip, zilch.
There's an old saying that if you take a shortcut, leave plenty of extra time.

I have Elements 9 Mac do I have to use the upgrade addition for Elements 10?

OK I am a little confused regarding my plugins installed in Elements 9 Mac after installing Elements 10 Mac. How do I get my plugins to work with version 10? Will this happen automatically after I install 10? I am using a full version of Elements 10 not an upgrade.

No. Regardless of whether you use the upgrade or the full version, each version of PSE is a complete, standalone program. You will need to reinstall third party content, although for actual plug-ins some people have had success in just making an alias of the plug-in folder from the older version and putting that into the plug-ins folder in the newer version. But layer styles, effects, etc must be reinstalled in the new version.

After I used the migration tool to transfer contents of my previous MacBook Pro I cannot log in to my new MacBook Pro. I have tried using old and new passwords but to no effect. I cannot use my Apple ID. How can I re-set my MBook to factory setting pls?

I have been a proud owner of Apple products for many years. However, this problem is very frustrating! Any help will be appreciated. I used the migration tool to transfer the contents of my old MacBook Pro to my new shiny MacBook Pro Retina! After migration finished I tried to access my new MacBook Pro retina. However, when asking me to log in it refuses to accept the passwords from either the new MacBook or the old one! I do not have the option of using my Apple ID either.... Please help! Unfortunately, I am past my 90 day Apple Support!!

Restart holding down the CMD+R keys, launch Disk Utility and erase the HD, quit DU, and restore the OS. On first boot, use the Setup Assistant to do the migration. Details in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide.
