Early MBP and latest firmware updates...

I got my MBP on Apr 13...I can't remember if I did the 1.01 firmware update...
How would I check to see if I did that update. Software Update does not tell me which updates have been installed.
Current SMC version is 1.2f7, would I need 1.01 or just install new MBP SMC update that Software Update alerted me to today???
Thanks!!

To check to see if the firmware update has already been run, follow the instructions in this thread. The older firmware update is not included in the SMC update.

  • Anyone NOT having problems with ITunes 8 and latest firmware update???

    I have really been put off updating to ITunes 8. The firmware update appears to be doing well. Is there anyone that uses a MacBook like myself who have had absolutely NO problems with new Itunes and firmware update? Answers on the back of a £50 note....

    Not having issues now that I have updated all i(hardware) firmware to version 2.1, two phones and an iPod Touch, all work fine (So Far) (knocking on wood). As far as iTunes goes I have mixed feelings. It's a bit faster and more stable, however they removed the "Burn CD" ability from the software. That blows a bit as I would make CD's from some of my play lists to play in the car. Yes I can dock my devices in the car, but as a matter of convenience it's easier to fire up the CD when your in a rush.

  • Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

    I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Actually, I think it'san early 2006.

  • HT3728 Does factory reset go back to latest firmware update.

    I have resently updated my airport express to latest firmware. The airport express is configured as an extension to my wifi with an Extreme as main device.
    Shortly after the firmware update (1-2 days) the express stopped working and status light turned yellow.
    I have since then tried to do factory reset several times without getting the device up and running again.
    When doing factory reset the status light turns yellow after releasing the button and stays amber with short interval with green (1 second every minute or so)
    I have not been able to discover the express from my iPad, iPone or iMac again.
    Could the reaons be latest firmware update?
    Any advice to get it back to normal?
    Thanks,
    Per

    Does factory reset go back to the latest firmware update.
    A Factory Default Reset will not affect the installed firmware.
    Shortly after the firmware update (1-2 days) the express stopped working and status light turned yellow.
    A solid amber light is unfortunately an indication that the internal power supply inside the AirPort Express is failing, or has failed.
    I have since then tried to do factory reset several times without getting the device up and running again.
    The AirPort Express has failed, and will need to be replaced.
    When doing factory reset the status light turns yellow after releasing the button and stays amber with short interval with green (1 second every minute or so)
    This is yet another confirmation that the Express has failed, and will need to be replaced.

  • Attempted Iphone 4 update to latest firmware update "failed"

    Ive attempted to update the Iphone to the latest firmware update  and it has failed 3 times, the final time it looked as though
    it worked but stopped and went into new mode to go-back to Restore to old  setting. Now it is locked up and asking me for the  admin backup password
    and everything I've tried is not working..  Not sure what to do at this point.
    The laptop I'm using is a Panasonic CF29 and running Windows XP with SP3 installed.
    I'm  open to any ideas at this point.
                Thanks Artman

    Then it's pretty hopeless. Normally the error message remains displayed until you click "OK", so it's surprising that you didn't see it. You can try the shotgun approach; just try a bunch of stuff in the hopes that it will work. But first I suggest trying to update it again, and this time watch it. The following list covers the most common causes of update failures:
    Open a Command window and type the command "netsh   winsock   reset"
    Reboot your computer
    Disable your antivirus and firewall
    Launch iTunes
    Connect the phone using a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub
    When the phone is recognized in iTunes click on it, then click Restore
    If the phone is NOT recognized in iTunes, disconnect it, the hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for exactly 10 seconds until the screen goes black, then release SLEEP but continue holding HOME while you connect the cable and continue holding HOME until iTunes recognizes a phone in recovery mode
    If the update completes you are in business
    You mentioned being prompted for a backup password. If your backup is encrypted you will need to know the password to complete the restore; if you don't know it you will have to restore as New and manually add your content back. If it is encrypted you really did enter a password for it once, whether you remember doing so or not.

  • Zen Touch latest Firmware Update...player not connec

    I tried installing the latest Firmware update for my Zen Touch (released 2-09).
    The player is connected and recognized by Windows and the Media Explorer. However, when I try to install the new Firmware it keeps saying "player not connected".
    I tried d/l two different language packages cause I wasn't sure what counted - player language or operating system langauge. Anyway, that didn't make a difference.
    So what do I do? I have no idea where to start. It's firmware for the correct device connected through Windows XP.
    I have made a firmware update before, which worked fine. After that I updated the media explorer software.
    Help is very much appreciated! Thank you in advance.

    Perhaps it's worth making sure no software is using the player, so reboot the PC, and turn off the Creative Detector. Then try again.
    Are you trying to upgrade to the .0.03 version?

  • How to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3g or gPRS on safari with an iphone 4 and latest software updates

    Please can someone help me to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3G or GPRS on safari with an iphone 4GS and latest software updates. I have tried resetting the network and phone settings. I have restored the factory settings on itunes and still the problem persists.

    All iPhones sold in Japan are sold carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked by the carrier. If you unlocked it, it was by unauthorized means (hacked), and support cannot be given to you in this forum.
    Hacked iPhones are subject to countermeasures by Apple, particularly when updating the firmware. It is likely permanently re-locked or permanently disabled.

  • Help trying to download and install firmware updater 1.0.2

    When I click on Apple's link to download and install the latest firmware updater, this is the message that I get. Look at the link, and let me know where I can find the latest firmware updater for the headset to work. Thanks!

    Okay. I uninstalled AIR, downloaded the current version and re-installed. I thought maybe a full install with the current version would help. CS4 setup seems to be working until it gets stuck at 'installing Adobe AIR.' I uninstalled AIR again and let CS4 setup install it but it still dies when it tries to do so. When it gets stuck, It will not let me CANCEL, instead I have to 'force quit' -- even thoght it doesn't show up as crashed. One great thhing -- I no longer have the big bang game popping up.
    Thank you so much for you answer, One step @ at time...

  • Latest firmware update and startup problems

    Hi I have been reading all about this so-called firmware and its importance in keeping updated on my new macbook pro. Therefore I have been diligently trying to keep it updated over my dial-up connection. I installed the latest firmware as my automatic update suggested. Now I get the spinning startup circle of death. Tried booting in safe mode to no avail. Help? (I also have version cue installed.)

    Hi jbell,
    Firmware updates are not availible in Software Update, only sofware updates are. Did you Repair Permissions prior to and after updating software? You always should. Go to Applications-Utilities-Disk Utility, and highlight Mac OS X in the left hand column, then Repair Permissions below. Firmware updates are available here....

  • Latest firmware update and more problems with 30" external displays?

    Hello,
    New macbook pro user since a few weeks, so first post here.
    I'm aware of various issues with the displayport to dual-dvi adapter, especially with 30" 2560x1600 monitors. All threads I've found on are 1-3 years old though.
    I got my 17" macbook pro a few weeks ago and I've had very few problems running my 30" dell 3008wfp as external screen. I had issues at times getting it to work after boot up, with blackout and various errors (problems I've read about in older threads), but once stable it would work without issues for days.
    Yesterday the macbook found and installed a new firmware update, and wow, all **** broke lose. The external screen won't run at 2650x1600 for more than a minute before blacking out or suffering major graphical errors. Ironically one of the key points in the firmware update is better support for external monitors...
    It will run nice and stable mirrored at 1920x1200, but not at 2650x1600.
    Is anyone else in a similar situation after the latest update?

  • Latest firmware update 6.3 and dead airport express basestation

    My Airport Express basestation (aebs) is 13 month old. It suddenly went dead. No light, no reset, nothing.
    And maybe a coincidence:
    It happened only 36 hours after I loaded the new 6.3 firmware update.
    I wonder if anyone had the same experience regarding a dead aebs due to firmware update 6.3. At least - compared to the posts here - a dead aebs is not such a rare incident as one might wish it would.
      Mac OS X (10.4)  

    Exactly the same has happened to mine, although I don't recall doing a firmware update. Yesterday I just downloaded and installed iTunes 6.0.2 & QuickTime 7.0.4. However, when I came home from work this evening my Airport Express had no LED on as normal. It was cold and had obviously been off for sometime. The fuse it OK and it's just one month after the 1-year guarantee period. Sounds suspiciously like a plot to me....
    What has Apple done to kill my Airport Express???

  • Mavericks upgrade and Thunderbolt firmware update?

    Hi Guys,
    last week I installed mavericks to an external hard drive and am currently using my early 2011 MBP as a dual boot using Lion and Mavericks. The main reason is because my audio software is no longer being updated in Lion.
    My next purchase once I start using Mav full time, will either be a belkin thunderbolt dock or the akitio thunder dock. So I can run my hard drives, tv etc from the thunderbolt port.
    Problem is, I'm unsure if I can update my thunderbolt port in my machine, and both docks will only run on thunderbolt two.
    in about this mac my information is this:
    Model Identifier:     MacBookPro8,2
    Boot ROM Version:     MBP81.0047.B27
    SMC Version (system):     1.69f4
    If I install the firmware updates here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
    will I be able to update the firmware for my thunderbolt port from
    Firmware Version:     22.1
    Port Micro Firmware Version:     2.0.7
    to whatever the latest one is, because I saw a post saying the latest frimware version is 25.1
    any advice/ideas?
    Cheers Iain.

    I emailed Akitio and got this reply.
    "The AKiTiO Thunder Dock is using Thunderbolt 1 but it's compatible with  both Thunderbolt 1 and Thunderbolt 2, so you can use it on earlier  machines as well as the latest Thunderbolt 2 machines. However, the  minimum system requirement is Mac OS X 10.9, so you will need to use  Mavericks.
    Regarding the EFI and SMC firmware, it's good to use the latest version  and we usually recommend to update it as part of our troubleshooting  process. The page you provided is the one I would have suggested too, so  you can follow the links there and update your machine.
    Keep in mind that this will not upgrade your Thunderbolt port as you put it, it only updates the firmware of your system."
