Firmware help please

Now, I have tried to get my AEBS N2 installed and no luck. I bought it from the Apple Store on Monday 4/13. I give this info because in the Airport Utility it shows the firmware version as 7.4 NOT 7.4.1. I have tried to rollback to 7.3.2 by using instructions from this website, but I am given the option of finding a firmware version on my HD thru the Windows Open dialog box or "Current". The airport utility can see the AE when I connect via ethernet and when I first tried to set it up, I did so manually to a green light, but no intenet connection. I am stuck, can anyone help, please!

Never mind, finally got it. Tried to access it from Google's 'Chrome' browser, which was nice enough to show me the URL it was unseccessfully trying to get - used an FTP tool to dl it, installed no problem...

Stuck, No Open Firmware, Help Please

Alright guys, got new ram, airport card, pram, and harddrive online from this powerbook g4 a1106 I was given.
I have all the hardware and was looking to get into the open firmware menu.
I hold command option O F
nothing happens, just goes to this white screen and sits there forever.
I dont have leopard yet but am assuming i could still get into that OF menu.
Please Help
Thanks

Ok sorry for double post,
I found out you just hold the power down or 5 seconds, did this, no change, cant get into open firmware, just white screen

Problem free ibook now can only boot 'open firmware,' help please!

I reasently went to play with my ibook, just opening it from stand by mode and it popped on but everything was frozen for some reason. So i ended up forcing it off and rebooting it only to find that it only wants to boot open firmware. I tried reseting the nvram but that didn't do anything either. What should I do?

You could see if it will boot into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

Rebuild screen freeze - unable to update firmware as not docking. Help please

Hello, I've got an 8gb Zen.
Always worked fine til I tried one of those hand crank chargers, since then I turn it on and it will freeze on the rebuilding screen.
Ran scandisk on it - no joy.
Wanted to try and update firmware to see if that helped but it will not connect to computer via USB. It will charge from the usb but just not connected, nothing.
Any help appreciated. Thank you

QRe: Rebuild screen freeze - unable to update firmware as not docking. Help please? So, it freezes on the rebuilding screen after formatting? It is very odd. Just to make sure... you have formatted (not cleaned up) the device from the Recovery Mode menu, right?
My only suggestion now is trying to mount the device on another computer (try one with a BSD or Linux operating system) and format it from here. With some luck, you should be able to see it as a new USB dri've. I am suggesting one of these operating systems, as you have a chance to mount your player on them even if it does not boots up properly. (I did it to recover mine just before suspecting there was a discrepancy on the FATs stored of the filesystem.) In your case, you will have a chance to format the device (using a FAT filesystem, of course) from these operating systems. I am, however, surprised to see that the Recovery Mode format function does not do its work on your player.
If your device does not boot up and freezes on the scanning/rebuilding processes there is a chance you have a problem with your filesystem instead of a fried USB port. So, there is a chance you can fix this device yourself yet.

I was restoring and updating my Iphone 5 to IOS 7.0,6 and during the process after completing more than 50% of the process my phone is stuck at "Restoring Iphone Firmware". Please Help.

Hello nishit.kadia,
It sounds like your phone became unresponsive when you attempted a restore of the device. Try resetting your device with this process:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
I would try putting the device in to recovery mode, and attempting the restore again:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

Why does my hard drive keep dismounting...help please I am going bonkers...

Brand new AEBS ver7 firmware
Works fine on the network and to the gateway for the internet.
Plug in a Lacie320 drive tot he USB, it sees it, it appears to work (but slow) for a while. Leave it to backup and when I return the disk has dismounted? Gone
Cant look at logs as I cannot reconnect without rebooting the router at which time the logs all are deleted.
If I try to reconnect it gives me an error connecting to Airport.
Only way out is to reboot AEBS.
If I try to delete files from the hard drive when connected it hangs, computer has timer going round forever message box is open but is not scanning files to delete, it is as if it can't see the drive and is searching...plus it has a small message box I cannot read (half off the screen), only way out of this is a physical reboot (hold power button down for 4 secs)
Now I have the drive on the USB direct to the machine, works great. So is this a firmware issue on the Airport unit?
Help please, I have spent days messing around with this and am about to give it up.

If you look in the iTunes folder on your original hard drive you should find a lot of files named "Temp File". These need to be deleted. I have not figured out what causes these or how to stop them from being made. If anyone knows the answer it would be greatly appreciated. When I delete mine it takes a very long time for them to delete, not the 2 minutes that countdown clock claims!

Former pc user converted to mac..ipod not recognised? help please

I have just changed my operating system from windows to mac osx. I plugged in my ipod and it only recharges,it doesn't recognise ipod. I assume this is becauseI need to reformat the ipod.Can anyone inform the the process involved,I have looked through endless pages of mac support and can not find a definitive answer. I have downloaded the latest ipod updater and still nothing. Help please.

Adrian
Here's a few suggestions to try.
1. Restart your Mac then plug in the iPod. Open "Disk utility" and see if your iPod shows up. Sometimes the "spinning beachball" icon may show up, give at least 15 mins before you conclude that the Mac is locked up. You can also try hitting the Mount button. This may cause the iPod to show up.
2. If that does not work, go to the Apple menu and select "About this Mac", click "more info" and go to FireWire. See if the iPod shows up there.
3. If #1 and # 2 does not work then download the latest PC version of the iPod updater. Instal on your PC, restore using this which would wipe the iPod. When this is done, connect to your Mac. If it shows up in Disk Utility then your can Erase and format "Mac OS extended". If this step is not successful, hit the "security options" button and select "zero all data" and try again. You may then need the Mac version of the latest iPod updater to update firmware.
Hope one of this works for you.

Mega 865 DVD RW drive - HELP PLEASE

Hello again been a long time since i have been here. Anyway the reason im back is that my DVD RW (NEC 2500A) is getting "Power callibration" errors when burning .. tried all the new firmwares etc so looks like the drive is dead..
Now my question is .. what drive can i get to replace is .. i.e is the NEC 3550A good etc... or is there better onces...
I remember about a year or so ago there was a list on here but couldnt find it ( i did try and search)
Any help please
Thanks

"Power calibration" errors can be caused by a failing drive, or by using bad media. also, have you tried using a DVD head cleaning disc, in case the lens is dirty?

No internet connection(help please)

I have the model---> Linksys WRT54GL Wireless-G Broadband Router
As I connect the ISPs dsl cable to router the internet light doesn't turn on! Also the phone became "dead"! when i put out the ISPs dsl cable the phone is well again!
The problem isn't the phone but why the router does not connect to the internet!
please help me!
thanx in advance

Please state the make and model of your modem.
I have tried to access web data on your OTE system. Since I don't speak Greek, I have only been able to find some basic information. Do you know what kind of "Internet Connection Type" you have from OTE? Common types include: Automatic Configuration - DHCP, PPPoE, Static IP, PPTP, L2TP. Also, do you know if OTE requires a "Host name" or "Domain name"?
Since you have already tried to setup the router a few times, you should reset the router to factory defaults, before trying to get it to work.   Please use the following procedure:
1)  Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4)  Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key.  You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out."   If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, I would suggest that you simply try using the router the way it is, at its factory defaults. To do this, power down the entire system and unplug all devices from the wall. Connect an ethernet cable from your modem to the "Internet" port on your WRT54GL. Power up the modem and allow it to fully boot (1-5 minutes). Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes). Power up your computer. Test your system. Can you get an Internet connection? If not, power cycle the entire system, then try to get an Internet connection again.
If it still fails, then power down your system, and disconnect the modem from the router. Be sure the modem is disconnected from the router before you proceed. Then try the Easylink Advisor (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
If you need additional help, please state the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know what happens.

My Apple desktop computer, 2.4 GHz Intel duo core, OS 10.6.8, stopped recognizing the WD My Book connected via firewire. It works fine with the USB port so it's not the drive. Help please.

It can be the bridge. It could need firmware update. or the FW ports may be an issue. LaCie seemed to invent the phrase/tip 'resetting firewire ports' due to the issues with their drive cases.
You can try an SMC Reset.
So far I have avoided name-brand and tend to see them mentioned. Often with a new OS (though you are on 10.6.8, but when 10.6 came out there was a common complaint and thread of users: FW or USB worked but not the other interface).

HELP PLEASE!!! Macbook not working AT ALL

So this afternoon I updated all the software on my Macbook. After updating, I chose to restart my machine - which took FOREVER and I ended up doing a hard reset. This resulted in a message having to do with the "firmware" I think?? I followed the directions on the screen (shutting down and restarting) to the best of my ability. This resulted in nothing more than a blue screen - another hard reset. Another blue screen. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Decided to disconnect the battery and reconnect it. NOW, I don't even get the startup sound the machine makes - just the little power light comes on and the hard disk doesn't even run.
Other than buying a new machine and never getting anything that was saved on my Macbook back again - which would be devastating - any ideas? Its been like 5 hours now... HELP PLEASE!
