EFI 1.1 update doesn't fix 2GB limit in XP 32

Hi Guys,
I was hoping this would fix the 2GB limit but I still have it.
I wish apple would fix this one, maybe it is not possible.
Cheers
Andy

Stupid Q? here but have you tried to get updated drivers and using the *.inf to install them / manual add hardware if they do not wish to run the setup completely.
Likely Dell drivers for a similar spec machine might *.ini work after the r1xxxx file extracted and complained about it not being a Dell.
Should be in dell forlder on C: drive .
Also you can try a Demo of VMware or buy it and run it as it would give you direct hd / hardware access and then install windows onto vmware .
If it does the same = firmware if not then ??
You could also unplug all card except the video ram cpu etc. you get the idea and try to run install again as IRQ's are extremely poorly coded in any microsoft product and some graphics / sound drivers does interfere with it if bios is unwilling to comply.
Either way hope this helps.

The iOS 7.1 update doesn't fix the Wifi issue on iPhone 4S!

My wifi greyed out since iOS 7, the hair dryer did fix the problem for a day. But it greyed out again after a day, and now the 7.1 update doesn't fix that ****???

Have you followed the steps listed in iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim - Support - Apple?
If not, do so immediately. Also, try: iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device.
The software update is not the cause of the problem. It is possible, however, that your hardware (i.e., the wi-fi chip) had a hidden problem, probably with heat tolerance, and the heat generated from the iOS update (the processor creates more heat the harder it works) pushed it past its tolerance.

Photoshop CS5 update doesn't fix artifact problem in the menu bar !

Hi to all,
I've installed the new update (december 7) recommended by Adobe, but that doesn't fix the Artifact problems in the menu bar !!!
More, with my Windows 7 Pro (French language), Photoshop CS5 video pilot create artifacts in the menu bar in several situations.
With Windows classic Theme chosen, theme management disabled:
1. Opening a photo and applying a filter (especially Noise Reduction).
2. Opening a photo and changing some preferences.
3. Opening a photo with Windows 7 File Explorer working cause the pilot to crash with a black screen, ans followed by a message saying that Win 7 has recovered the video pilot.
To suppress most of the problems, I need to Activate "Themes" and choose an Aero theme or the Basic Theme.
I also need to activate some items that slow the PC !
Very strange !
Could someone help, me please ?
Have a Nice Day.
Thierry

Yes, I've an Asus ENGT220/G/DI/1GD3, tried Windows default pilot, 2009 Asus pilot "nv19045_Win7Vista64.zip", and 2010 latest version "nv25919_Win7Vista64.zip", no change !
More, I've exchanged the video car by a "monster" ENGTX465 with it's driver, NO CHANGE !
So what to do ?!
Help, please !

Server 10.5.2 update doesn't fix SUS wonky listing

Well, I updated a couple of servers yesterday to v10.5.2, in the hopes that Software Update Services might work a little better (or at least, somewhat predictably!). While they may yet be much improved, one thing that appears to still be hosed is the listing of updates and their descriptions. If you change sorting of the list to anything other than the default (and I have no idea what method the default listing is-- seem random), the descriptions no longer match up w/ the updates listed. I'm quite surprised that this rather glaring bug wasn't addressed. Is everyone else seeing the same (flawed) behavior still?
Fred

You're right, Mike...sort of! I am indeed administering from my PowerBook, which is running non-Server Mac OS X Leopard. I have updated it to v10.5.2 as well, but as far as I can tell, this doesn't update the Server Admin on my machine. And I'm not aware of any updaters...at least, Software Update doesn't show one.
If you look at the version # in Server Admin, it shows the same (10.5, build 279) on both a 10.5.2 server in question and my PowerBook. However, the server's Server Admin shows the listing correctly, but my PB does not! So, with a little more digging, I looked inside SA's package contents, and discovered the SWUpdate plugin is v10.5.1 and newer on the server than the v10.5 on my PowerBook. There's the answer, apparently.
Now, I'm not sure how you properly update the remote Server Admin program (my PowerBook in this case), aside from the dirty way of copying the actual binary. Then again, maybe I've overlooked some Server Admin update somewhere. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Fred

Not a hang - no misty screen, no hourglass, no 'Not Responding' - but it doesn't respond and updating doesn't fix it.

Was on some prehistoric version of Firefox as I only update when I have a problem with an old version. It started to become absurdly slow, so I updated to 19.0.2 as advised by the window that came up. However, if anything it's got worse. It starts with a blank window, then the 'Restore Session' page comes up, then it just doesn't let me click on or type anything at all. As I've said, if a hang is when the screen goes misty, the cursor becomes what used to be an hourglass but is now a circle and the words 'Not Responding' appear in the title bar, then this is not a hang because none of those things happen, but I can't do a damn thing with it. I've tried shutting it down through Task Manager, even though it's not using anything like the level of memory where that is usually necessary, and then restarting it, but to no avail. How can I get it working again?

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 19.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

10.7.1 update doesn't fix my internet sharing problem

I've updated my Macbook (late 2008) to 10.7.1 today. I'm disappointed to find that the internet sharing issue still exists. I can ping websites through it, but wget never work. Google.com is accessible while other sites don't load on my iPod touch and Palm Pre Plus. But it did work fine within seconds after internet sharing was started. And internet sharing on my iMac with 10.6.8 works perfectly.
I'm using PPPoE to connect to the internet. I guess there are some problems with MTU (maximum transmission unit).
Don't tell me to change wifi channel or set password, it doesn't help.

Internet sharing worked on 10.7 after doing 1 tweak, that is by changing my Computer Name in internet sharing to something else other than the default one... however after upgrading to 10.7.1, the upgrade would mess up with the same tweaks again. It brought my Computer Name to its default, however when I clicked on edit it would give the changed name... I noticed that it has something to do with the IP Address but in any case I did the following and it works again for me on 10.7.1:
1) Go to System Preferences>Sharing and click on Internet Sharing (don't 'tick' it yet!)
2) After upgrading to 10.7.1, the Computer Name displayed on the Internet Sharing Screen would revert to the original, i.e. YourName's MacBook Pro. However, upon click edit next to the space where you can enter your Computer Name, it would give the name I had given while I was on 10.7.
3) Now you just have to make sure that both names are identical (do not use the default name YourName's MacBook Pro). Please see snapshot below (yes, my Computer Name is 'Network-Error', so don't be surprised:))!
4) Once you have confirmed that both names are identical, you are set to go and you may 'tick' the Internet Sharing option
5) An arrow facing upwards will appear instead of the wireless icon on the top tray and your device such as an iPhone should connect without any issues (an IP address will be given).
Note: the other options that I have kept in the Wi-Fi Options tab are as follows:
1) Network Name: should be identical to the one you have entered above
2) Channel: 11
3) Security: 40-bit WEP
4) Password: I've entered a five-digit password that contains numbers
To confirm that its working for me, I've added a screenshot from my iPhone below:
It doesn't work for me. Thanks anyway.

Update doesn't fix missing help menu?

Downloaded the latest update hoping to find that the missing help menu had been fixed, but I guess not. It seems that this should be available to those that downloaded Aperture 2 (.0.1 now) just like those who got the box. I have downloaded the help manual pdf, but don't know how to get it to show up in the program help menu.

10.5.1 Update doesn't fix iChat/Photobooth video issues.

I didn't really think it would since there were a lot of lower level OS items to repair before working on particular hardware issues.
That being said, I'd like to make it clear that video is broken for iChat and Photobooth on my MacBook Pro. I get a black screen whenever I try to use the built-in iSight camera.
If I fire up Skype, the video works fine as it uses a different method to grab the camera image.
So for Apple folks perusing the forum, please add this to the list of issues. Thanks.

You're welcome, steve.
The difference between Software Update and standalone is explained here. The article also explains recovering from possible installation process interruptions, which can be the cause of some strange problems.
Be sure to repair permissions after the update. The 10.5.1 update installer left many permissions needing repair on my PPC Mac.
If the standalone installer does not help you, consider Possible hardware or software conflicts.
Once you eliminate potential conflicts, and if you have problems only with the two apps, those two apps may have been damaged somehow. Perhaps reinstalling the two apps will correct your problem?

10.0.2 Update - Doesn't Fix Titles

10.0.2 Still has the same problem with title bubbles. They may not revert to a "default font" but they randomly default back to saying "Title" instead of whatever was typed into them.
What a piece of crap FCPX is.

Have talked about this in the past and my experience up to now has been that projects started in 10.0.2 were ok. Not true anymore. Had one today where titles revert to default. The default can be the title or substitle line or the postion you left the title can go back to where the default postion is located. Seems to be limited to one title in project, but just as a test, quit several times and get various results. One occasion both title and subtitles defaulted, had one each and one where only the position switched. MacPro, 4 core, 16gb memory, working with Panasonic TM700 footage.

After updating to ios 5, my calendar sometimes freezes when entering a new event. I have tried syncing but it doesn't fix the problem. Are there any bug fixes for this? Any ideas would be great thanks, I don't really want to have to reset everything!

Try to reset the iPod by pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.

Unable to text after update. Also, the dock buttons are frozen. I've tried restoring, but it doesn't fix problem. Any suggestions?

Just delete it from the Applications folder, and re-download it.
If it still says installed when you go to Purchased in App Store, click somewhere else, and option-click Purchased. That allows you to redownload already installed software.

EFI firmware update doesn't show up?

Wondering why the EFI firmware update doesn't show up for me in Software update? My firmware is: MP31.006C.B03
Supposedly after the update its supposed to be: MP31.006C.B05
Does this mean that I don't need the update?

CapNemo wrote:
Thanks for all the replies. I guess the problem is that I haven't yet installed the Leopard Graphics update. Since everything is running so well right now I didn't want to mess with it.
So what's the story, should I or shouldn't I install the Leopard Graphics Update and the EFI Firmware update? I've never experienced the wake from sleep problems because I have Energy Saver set to "never" sleep.
It might be wisest not to, but then it's hard to say. The
firmware update might address some nasty issues we don't know
about. Or it might be targeted specifically at the reboot issue.
How can we know? There's very little information on the download page.
It's a gamble, sorry to say.
One thing: I'm not super convinced you'll need that graphics
update after the EFI update has been applied. It would be surprising
if Apple made the machines reliant on something not included with
the original install disks.
You might try this very risky (caution: possibly dangerous; at your
own risk only) thing: applying the graphics update and then manually
reverting it from a backup after installing the EFI update.
Note this though: the EFI update is essentially irreversible.
In a couple of months, graphics update 2 will likely be available, if
history repeats itself. You might wait until then, and take that risk
instead

Corrupted video, why is there no EFI 1.5 update for BootROM MBP22.00A5.B07?

I'm still experiencing the problem that apparently the EFI 1.4 update corrupted the display (flickery blue pixels) when using Windows or Linux via Boot Camp. I found this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1318149&tstart=15 about the problem, and finally it seems that the EFI 1.5 update fixed this issue for many people.
Unfortunately, I have a Late 2006 MacBook Pro with a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 with 128MB SDRAM graphic card. The EFI update tells me that my computer does not need this update, so I'm still stuck with the 1.4 version.
Now, here we are in June 2008, and I get the feeling that Apple has "forgotten" fixing this problem also for the late 2006 models. Does any of you have more information about this? Will there finally be a firmware update for my MacBook Pro?

I can confirm that the issue was at it's most noticeable moving the cursor over iPhoto events too.
Also that connecting it to the mains seemed to fix it, and disconnecting it would appear again.
Just set the sleep to Quick using the Deep Sleep widget, and it seems OK so far.
Not sure if I'm getting too picky, but the display does still go slightly off / fuzzy when scrolling - noticeable in Safari at least - eg black text on a white background. The text doesn't break, but when you scroll, I guess the best way to describe it is as though there's some pressure on the text, and it kind of resists the direction of travel slightly.
Not sure now if this is normal, and it hadn't bugged me before, but only is now because of the more serious issues?

Late 2013 Keyboard / Trackpad still unresponsive AFTER EFI 1.3 update

I thought I would start a new thread / discussion since the previous thread here seems to be riddled with "install the update" suggestions and off topic assistance such as battery life questions. I have also logged detailed information regarding this issue on my professional blog here.
Anyway, here is a short, condensed version of my story. I have had two brand new late 2013 Retina MacBook Pro's with the 2.4/16GB/256 configuration. Since the config I chose is a CTO, this problem has been going on since the day the first model arrived (December 10th, 2013). The EFI update was preinstalled on both systems and I can verify that because the boot ROM version is MBP111.0138.B03 (the boot rom prior to the update ended in B00 or B01). I am also an AASP and an ACMT meaning that I am certified and employed with a company that allows me to fix all Apple hardware under warranty. I am well-versed in technology and Apple hardware and I have never seen anything quite like this.
Here is the quick summary of things I have attempted and I have been able to re-recreate the issue:
The system will not mount the root device when I boot via a known good external hard drive running 10.9.1. Verbose mode and Single user mode reports a still waiting for root device error.
The system (rMBP) will not boot from another system (late 2011 MacBook Pro 13") when said system (late 2011 MacBook Pro) pushed into target disk mode via thunderbolt.
My system, rMBP, will boot up with the internal SSD but will not allow the keyboard and track pad to function. The caps lock key will not illuminate. The keyboard and track pad will work OUTSIDE of 10.9.1, however. I have installed a clean internet recovery version of Mavericks over 4 times.
If I put my system, rMBP, into target disk mode and connect to any other computer via thunderbolt and boot it on the other Apple systems, the operating system running on the internal SSD of the rMBP will work just fine -- keyboard and mouse included (again, as a target disk mode thunderbolt connection to another host).
If I use a remote agent to connect to my rMBP such as LogMeIn or vnc, the keyboard and mouse will work just fine from the remote system which leaves me to beleive that this is not a software issue nor is it fully a hardware issue since the keyboard and mouse work outside of mavericks.
I believe we are still dealing with a firmware issue here. It took several tries to create a bootable device for the late 2013 rMBP since NONE of my other up-to-date and verified working external drives will boot but I finally created a bootable USB stick. When I run the system from the USB stick, the keyboard and trackpad will work but if I touch the keyboard and / or trackpad in 5 second intervals, I will receive the following error:

I had actually created a system log query to search for the above. The search string includes "the USB " and any entry after 1/1/2014. The above error should only present itself when waking an Apple system from sleep and instead it happens on every touch after, at least, a 5 second period of non-use.
When I remote into the system using LogMeIn, VNC or even use an application called ShareMouse which shares the keyboard and mouse of my Windows system with any other computer on the network presuming they have ShareMouse also installed, I can use the system as I would expect, without continuous error in the console log. When I check the system information, Bluetooth is completely disabled and the USB hub does not report address information. Since the keyboard, track pad, Bluetooth peripheral and USB ports all sit on the same USB stack / hub this leads me to think there is a firmware / driver failure occurring after Mavericks loads. The only two errors I see when I am using a remote keyboard and mouse via a remote service is as follows:
1/5/14 6:58:16.000 PM kernel[0]: The USB device HubDevice (Port 1 of Hub at 0xfa000000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (2)

Bottom line: Even for those of you who have installed the EFI 1.3 update and have verified that your freezing issues have ceased, for the most part, could you check your console log for the above error. My guess is, you will still see the error repeated there in 5 second intervals if you touch the keyboard, put your hands up for 5 seconds, touch the keyboard and / or track pad again. My concerns is that this is a product line issue since it has occurred on two brand new systems and the log errors appeared on another model on display in an Apple store. (The display model was logged into an Admin account so I took the liberty of checking the console log.)

I'm tired of this message. Bought a Mac 13" retina from bestbuy that was shipped to me on December 24th. The finder took a long time to load 'All My Files' with three to five second delay. My older macbook unibody (late 2009)was instantaneous. My wife's macbook aluminum (2011) also loaded the files instantaneously. Sorry I digressed but while I was trying to research that issue, I was caught up in the console and multiple of these,'The USB device Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad (Port 5 of Hub at 0x14000000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (2)' kept showing up whenever I touched the trackpad in intervals of 6-7 seconds.
Called up apple, used screen sharing and after spending an hour was transferred to the second tier tech. The second tier rep troubleshooted and told me it WAS an issue and asked me to go to apple store to run diagnostics and that most likely I'll receive another notebook in exchange since it fell within 14 day period. I told him the internet was filled with this discussion and asked if it was prevalent. He said it was the first time he has come across this issue and most forums on the internet may not be addressing my specific issue. I wasn't convinced and simply returned it at best buy.
The unfortunate thing is I sold my macbook unibody and having owned 2 macbooks for last eight years I caved and ordered another 13". After a week and a half I received it today and guess what, I see the same message filling up my console.
I noted the following,
* Use guest account and you'll never see the message,'The USB device Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad (Port 5 of Hub at 0x14000000) may have caused a wake by issuing a remote wakeup (2)'. All admin accounts created will throw that error.
Though off topic I'd like to state what happened with the Finder's 'All my files' issue:
1. Once I upgraded my older macbook unibody to mavericks, the 'All my files' took longer to load as the new macbook pro.
2. I was able to replicate the same slow load times with macbook aluminium(2011) when I upgraded it to mavericks.
Oh, I also showed the slowness to the representatives and all they tried doing was reindex spotlight which did no good.
So much for 1799$ notebook and the "free" OS. Very disappointed.
