Firmware update fails

I have a L7580 and the firmware ver is R2011NxNxcN0.
The new download ver is R2011PxN.exe showing to be a later ver.
I have tried to flash fw to new ver by network and usb connection.
When flashing the printer fw should display (Firmware flashing will begin. CAUTION! Do not interrupt the printer during the upgrade process.) but it shows printing and only prints network config page at the old fw.
I have uninstalled firewall antivirus and opened router for ipadd and mac add.
Can get to printrer web add page.
Has anyone run into this problem, or have a solution?

downloaded and tried again, worked fine.

Zen Micro - firmware update failed so now "dead"

I have a firmware problem with my Zen Micro. Can anyone help?
The series of actions I have taken so far are these:
I got my Micro in January 2006. I now want to run Audible software to listen to their books so I downloaded the firmware update L6_2_2_02.exe from the Creative support site which is stated as providing the Audible?facility.
I backed up the Micro contents using Creative MeadiaSource Organiser. I then ran the firmware update from my Win XP PC. This started OK and I got a series of messages about what was happening. Then it stopped with the progress indicator bars about 2/3 across. I left it for half an hour and nothing changed so clicked to stop the update.
I checked the firmware version on the Micro and it said 2.2.02. The update?looked OK and the FM worked but of course I had no music content.
I opened my Creative MeadiaSource Organiser (v 3.0.09) but it said no device is connected so I was unable to reload the music. My XP PC recognised the Micro as connected and I checked Device Manager which showed the "device is working properly". I was also able to synch music to the Micro using Windows Media Player and this played OK. I tried another computer and could also synch using Windows Media Player but I wanted to reload my music from the backup.
I looked on the Creative site for the steps to take when a firmware update fails. The Zen Micro is not on the list as supporting the MP3 Player Recovery Tool so I did not use that. I followed the Reload Failure recovery instructions and ran Clean UP, then Format All, but this did not fix it so I ran Reload Firmware on the Micro. This was a big mistake!
Now when I try to run the firmware update from my Win XP PC, I select English then I get the message "Your player is not connected, please connect your player". I checked again and XP still recognises the Micro and the device is working. It is no longer recognised by Windows Media Player but just? appears to XP as an empty storage device.
The Micro now shows the firmware as v 0.0.65, but now it is stuck in Recovery Mode. I have contacted Creative Support but their reply is that this player is now over 3 years old, reached its end of service life, so there is no support other than on their web site. Following their web site recovery instructions got me into this mess so I guess?no extra help is offered from Creative.
The player is now essentially dead. Unless there is some way to get the firmware update program to recognise the device as connected, then I don't know how to fix this. This is a shame as it is a nice little player for my music collection.
Can anyone help as I don't know what to do next?

I have the same problem. I put the screenshots below and the errors that happen to me.I can not put him the firmware because I do not recognize the device.

Firmware update failed - how to resolve remotely

I bought my father an Apple TV so he could subscribe and watch MLB. Everything was working fine until the Apple TV attempted to update itself. Apparently the firmware update failed. I need to know how to remotely resolve this for him. I can access his PC remotely so I read some info that you can update Apple TV via iTunes. I also need to confirm that the USB socket on the Apple TV is a USB Mini type. I'm assuming you can just plug the Apple TV into a USB socket and then from iTunes initiate the firmware update, much like you do an iPad. He's not very technically savvy, so I need to do this for him or have him call Apple support.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

If he hasn't done so get him to do the old fashioned trick of unplugging teh mains power to it and restarting.
If it restarts correctly the update can be reattempted.
If it's truly bricked then return to Apple or restore using itunes will be necessary.

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.

SSD Firmware update fails

In my T61p [6457-BQG, BIOS 2.29] I have the Lenovo version of a Samsung 830 SSD [MZ7PC256HAFU-000L7]. It is recognised by the firmware update program [fwss29.iso] and I am offered the chance to update from CXM72L1Q to CXM75L1Q. But when I try to run the update process I get a big red error box with UPDATE FAILED. I removed the HD password before trying the upate.
Any ideas?

Hello,
Have you tried changing the SATA drive access mode from AHCI/RAID/SATA (name might vary) to Classic/Legacy (again, name might vary) and then performing the firmware updateon the SSD?

HELP! Firmware update failed, need to extract data from unreadable iPod

Please HELP! I have important data on my iPod that I need to preserve. Here's what I did:
* downloaded newest iPod software and used the iPod Updater. It assured me the the "Update" process does not touch songs/data on my iPod
* clicked the Update button. The update failed, citing error writting data to disk.
* now my iPod will not boot up (folder icon), on top of that it will not mount even in Disk Mode (claims it's unformatted).
* iPod Updater now offers only the Restore option
I absolutelly NEED to get the data of my iPod if I am to restore it. The data should still be on the disk (even if the firmware is damadged), it's just a matter of gaining access to it.
Any chances?
iPod video Windows XP

Good luck.
Sounds like a problem I had with a camera card - and I lost the pictures, and I have yet to restore the camera card - it's still dead, won't even format.
Take it someplace where they specialize in data recovery - for high fees....

P1102w firmware update failed

Hello.
I was trying to update the firmware for HP P1102w, and it seemed to be failed. After waiting for a long time, it ended up with the error message, "restart the power cycle and try again" or something like that.
After that, it did not appear in my network, and I lost the web interface and print capability. My rounter does not show its presence. The printer has solid purple lights on WiFi and triangle light.
I tried to way to do factory reset, but I could not find it.
I understand that firmware failed is critical. Does anybody know how to fix it?
Thank you very much.
This question was solved.

2.28 Firmware Update Failed

I have tried twice to manually install the 2.23-2.28 Firmware update for the MIFI 4510L and both times got the message"403 software failed. Any advice or help would be appreciated

The simple answer is to try the update from another computer, preferrably a Windows computer.
Its also a viable option to bring the MiFi into a VZW store and have them perform the update for you. That way if your MiFi is bricked they can replace it for you on the spot instead of having to wait for one in the mail.
There may be other tricks and tips in this thread:

New Bluetooth Apple Keyboard - Bluetooth Firmware Updater fails

Hello,
I want to be able to use bluetooth to wake my MacBook Pro, I am told by the instructions I need to use the Firmware Updater, so I installed that off the CD provided but when I launch Bluetooth Firmware Updater and click update, I get this error:
Missing Firmware
This version of the updater is missing the firmware file. Cannot proceed.
Can anybody help me with this? I'm not sure how to proceed from here.

Hello,
I have checked the settings and they are correct but it is still not waking up properly - watching the light on the front it does look like it is trying, as it stops pulsating and goes solid but it doesn't wake up, I don't get anything displaying on the external monitor nor can I use the remote to start playing iTunes.
I wonder if this is a different problem, not just the keyboard failing to wake it up?

Zen Micro Photo Firmware 'Update Fail

Ive tried several things, several computers. The Zen will only boot to the firmware screen if not docked. If Docked the Zen can update but at the end, it will always say, 'Update Failed!'?I was wondering if this is the Motherboard, or the Hard-dri've. I dont hear any clicks or sounds from the hard dri've.

This all started a few days ago, the Zen was playing a nice track and then it turned off, I turned it back on thinking wtf. It came on, played for about sec then said, 'Overheating Shutting Down'?so I tried a few more times and it said the same thing, it was rather Cold outside, wierd. I went home, let it stay infront of a fan for a few hours and thats when it wouldnt even boot after that. Then I couldnt recharge the battery for some odd reason, and the update didnt want to install, So i had my old BROKEN ZEN MICRO which has the same EXACT PROBLEM, anyways, I took that battery and used it cause it charged unlike the ZEN MICRO PHOTO Battery. After that, then I installed the update, but then it gave me that problem of Update failed, so here i am now...

Thunderbolt firmware update failed!

My config: Early 2011 MB Pro 13" 2.7 GHz i7 / OSX 10.7.1 Build 11B26
Last week I installed "Thunderbold Firmware Update version 1.0" on my brand new MB Pro.
It was connected to power, the update started, rebooted and showed the progress dialog while installing.So far so good. Almost at 100%, the progressbar stoped moving for at least an hour!!
At that point i discovered that a mobile HD was still connected to my MB (stupid off course during FW updates) and I disconnected it in the hope it would solve the pause. I waited again for at least half an hour and finally decided (was forced, against all advise) to reboot my MB.
The next boot, was a scary one :-). While everything seemed to work at first glace, I discoverd that my external displays did not work anymore. When using my minidisplay->VGA converter, no displays are detected. When using my minidisplay->HDMI displays are detected but giving "no signal". I've tried at three diverent screens that are all working on my (older) mac mini using the same adapters + cables.
Anybody experienced the same problem so far? I called with Apple Care but they "only" could advise me the SMC and PRAM/NVRAM resets. None of them helped. I also tried to install the thunderbolt fw-update by hand but a "Your computer's thunderbold port does not need this update" message is shown. The software updater shows that the system is fully up to date.
When looking at my system report the following is shown for my thunderbolt:
====
MacBook Pro:
Vendor Name:    Apple, Inc.
Device Name:    MacBook Pro
UID:    0x0001000A1B402220
Firmware Version:    22.1
Port:
Status:    No devices connected
Link Status:    7
Port Micro Firmware Version:    FFFF.FF.FF
====
The FFFF.FF.FF worries me a bit. Anyone knows what is shown after a successful update? Any known tricks maybe to force the FW-update again or skip back to the previous version?
I desperately need my external big screen again for software-dev.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards, David (Netherlands)

I did it on my 2011 MBPro on Aug. 24.
It normally causes no problems to run a FW update if you check first, that there are NO external devices connected during FW update and the charger is connected and powered.
If it fails under this circumstances, it's mostly a hardware fault causing that. For that do it while your system is still under warranty.
Anyway, you can also try to roll back a failed firmware update.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2213
Sooner or later you must have it as a precondition for a upgrade or to get different hardware to work.
Note also that the next Thunderbolt FW update is rolled out now.

Airport extramem firmware update failed....

...but I was able to fix it. I thought I would post this in case anyone else experiences the same.
I initiated the firmware update (7.4.1) when I started airport utility. The update seemed to go well and I got the green light on the device. But, it didn't work-my computer could not connect to the wireless network-the network was not found. I tried to change the settings on the airport extreme and this is where I found the error - could not find configuration file. After trying several things, what finally worked was to "restore default settings" under "base station". I had to provide the device name, network name, and a few other things, but it now works fine.

Hi iBrian;
I was having the same problem, hence the reason I knew where the answer was so quickly.
I attempted to reset my AEBS numerous time without any effect. Finally when I was ready yo call Apple the reset decided to worked. I had to restore my setting and I am not working also.

Xserve Firmware update fails (5.1.7f1)

Hi I have an Xserve G5 another dept. donated to mine recently that has not been used for sometime. I'm trying to update it to the latest patches etc. however the firmware update refuses to take.
I followed all the instructions:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93980
and have tried via both the GUI and ssh method. Also after default install (10.4) and after combo updating to 10.4.4 however nothing works and it stubbornly remains on 5.1.7f0.
the only other things to mention are that I can see in the system log each time (which seeem normal):
Jan 26 18:19:14 drkw-osxserve2 authexec: executing /Applications/Utilities/Xserve Firmware Updater.app/Contents/Resources/CopyFile
Jan 26 18:19:14 drkw-osxserve2 authexec: executing /Applications/Utilities/Xserve Firmware Updater.app/Contents/Resources/SetUpStartupItems
Anyone resoloved this issue before?

I'm having the same problem ... and IIRC, my son turned the xServe G5 off while the machine was rebooting . Since then, Software update constantly flags the firmware update as needed, but it never takes root.

N73 firmware update failed but still working?

Few days ago I saw new firmware for N73 is out. Downloaded program, stared to update firmware.
After cca. 90% of progress bar I heard same sound you hear every time you plug in/out your phone over USB cable. My heart almost stopped since I heard stories you must not unplug phone during firmware update, that it will not work after that. Suprisingly software offered me to repeat update process!
I clicked OK and it started all over again.
Once again after reaching about 90% progress bar instalation stopped with same un plugg sound. This time there was no repeat update offer. I tryed everything but update din't work.
I plugged USB out of comp and phone and tryed to turn on phone. I wasn't able to turn in on! Then I took out battery, put it back in and turned on phone.
All worked, menu was in english, but I had option to change it back to croatian again. Installed old programs and they all worked. Voice dialing working, camera working... all working.
What the hell happened?
Why installation stopped on 90% and my phone is working without problems on NEW firmware? Bug in Nokia Firmware update software?

I've understood it's quite normal that the update prosedure may seem to stop even for some minutes and then go on again. The connection between the phone and computer will also break and then reconnect couple of times...
Are you sure, you did wait long enough before unplugging your phone (at least some minutes)?
But if your phone has the new firmware now and everything is working fine so I hope there is no problem!
