Failure to Upgrade the software of my AIP-SSM-20
Dear all,
I have failed to upgrade the software of my AIP-SSM-20 on the ASA. The AIP-SSM-20 had an Image of version IPS-K9-5.1-7-E1.pkg and I tried to upgrade it to IPS-K9-6.1-1-E2.pkg but after the upgrade the AIP-SSM-20 became unusable. I can no longer log on to the IPS Module from the ASA. When I initiated a connection to the module with session 1 command, the systems says card in slot 1 did not respond to system request. I decided to restored the system image from the ASA by using the hw-module module 1 recover configure and hw-module module 1 recover boot commands but has so far failed.When I issued the command hw-module module 1 boot command, the status of the IPS shows recover and would be in that state even for days.And my TFTP server shows that it is transfering the images to the IPS.
I don't know where I have gone wrong and I would be very happy if somebody can give me a procedure that would help me to re-image the software of the IPS.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Halijen has already send you a link to reimage,let me briefly answer what a system image and upgrade files are and the difference between them
The System Image files are meant to be used only when a complete erasing of the sensor's image is needed. This is generally because the installed files were corrupted, or so old that it would be easier to start over and make it look like it came from the factory; than to use the standard "upgrade" files.So in case you are doing reimaging than use .img files which are system reimage files
In more than 90% of the cases, most customers will want to "upgrade" rather than do a System Image. The "upgrade" is done from within the sensor itself, and will both load the higher version as well as convert your current configuration to work with the newer version.it uses .pkg files
A usual poblem with the System Re-imaging process is that the card winds up in a boot loop because of an error. When ROMMON detects an error it reboots and tries the same steps again which usually winds up with the same error which causes a reboot, etc.....
So determining if the card is in a reboot loop, and what the error is would be the next step in your debugging process.
Execute "debug module-boot". Enter "hw-module module 1 recover stop". Wait for a few minutes, and then enter "hw-module module 1 recover boot".
The output from ROMMON on the SSM will be seen on your ASA connection.Look at the configuration being passed to the SSM's ROMMON and look for any bad entries.Watch to see if it able to download the System Image file, or if it continuously reboots.
If it continuously reboots, then look to see what error message is seen just prior to the reboot.
Some common problems:
1) Typos in IP address, gateway, tftp server IP, or system image filename.
2) If the tftp server is on the same subnet as the SSM's IP Address, then try leaving the Gateway address blank since it is not needed.
3) Remember that the IP Address is for the external interface of the SSM. So be sure you are using an address that is applicable for the network where you are pluggin in the SSM's external interface.
4) If the TFTP Server is on another subnet, then be sure there is a route to the other network. If having to route back through the ASA, then ensure that the ASA will allow TFTP packets to pass through the ASA. (The ASA could wind up blocking the TFTP packets depending on the ASA configuration)
5) Be sure the file can be downloaded from the TFTP server. Check the file permissions, and the directory where the file is located. From your desktop try to downlaod the file from the tftp server. This will ensure you are using the correct directory and that the file has correct permissions. Once common problem is that the file may be /tftpboot/sensorfiles/IPS-SSM_20-K9-sys-1.1-a-6.1-1-E1.img. But because the tftp server automatically starts in /tftpboot, you may need to NOT specify it for the file and instead just use: sensorfiles/IPS-SSM_20-K9-sys-1.1-a-6.1-1-E1.img
6) Check to make sure the file is not corrupted by running an md5sum and checking it against the value listed on cisco's web site.

I phone not working after upgrading the software
I am having an unlocked model Iphone which was presented to me by a friend who lives in USA. Since I am in Sudan, I started operating it in Khartoum and was working OK. Now recently, when I connected my Iphone to Itunes, there was an option to upgrade the software, and so I did it. After successfully upgrading the latest version of software, My Iphone does not support the carrier sim card. Now I want to go back to my previous version of software. What should I do now?
I'm sorry but no one here can help you. The TOU of these forums does not allow discussion of fixes for hacked phones. You'll either need to contact whoever did the hack or use Google to find alternate help.

Try pulling down the spill level and reducing the spill tint. You're probably going to have to tweak the color selection manually. -

i have an iphone 4 with 4.3.2 version, i want to upgrade the software. but my phone is not getting synchronised on itunes and not getting detected. also there is no update software tab under settings.please help me
If your phone isn't being recognized by your computer, you need to follow the steps in this article to resolve that
Also, some basic isolation needs to be done. Does it show up in itunes on any other computers? do you have other cords you can test with to see if it might be the cord? if the phone doesn't show up on any computers, it's likely your phone has a hardware issue

I bought my iPad off a friend and it is hacked. I can't upgrade the software to iOS 5.1 it says unable to update. And something about me not being eligible. I need help please
If the device is jail broken - and the message is that the iPad is not eligible for the requested build - there are tons of articles on the internet that discuss how to fix the iPad. Use Google.

I want to upgrade the software (currently I have Mac OS X 10.6.4) but when the mac is downloading the new version i get an error message and is not possible get the most updated software: Mac OS X 10.6.8 or either the most recent itunes why?!?!?!
Then you either have a network problem or a hardware problem or a corrupted hard drive. You might try:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
You can also try downloading from another computer on a different network connection. -
Trying to get my TV to mirror my iMac Screen. Have Yosemite 10.10 , purchased the latest AppleTv and upgrade the software. Both are connected to my network through an Ethernet connection and Wi-Fi. Why cannot see the icon and connect to Apple TV?
Hi tallsweet,
The article linked below is a great resource for troubleshooting Airplay Mirroring issues, like the one that you’ve described where your iMac isn’t showing the Airplay icon.

I just updated my itune on my PC and now it doesn't start. There was no error in installing/upgrading the software but once I rebut the computer the icon appeared but it wouldn't start the program. Did I loose all my music and data? How can I fix the problem? Thanks
Try this from MacFixIt as well:
In the case of drive directory damage or problems with permissions, the solution is usually to use Apple's Disk Utility to repair the disk. Of course, you won't be able to perform this operation normally (simply launching the Disk Utility application, located in Applications/Utilities, and initiating a disk repair) if your system will not startup. So two options exist:
* Insert your Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) media (DVD or CD) and restart the computer while holding down the "C" key. Once the computer has booted from the installation disc, select "Utilities" from the menubar and open Disk Utility. Repair the disk, then quit Disk Utility and restart your system.
* Alternatively, you can repair the disk while booted in single user mode if you do not have access to a retail Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) DVD/CD. To startup in single user mode, hold down the "Command" and "S" keys simultaneously at startup. Once properly booted, type the command fsck at the prompt. Repeat these process until no errors appear.
