  • Firmware Update Notifications From Other Peoples Devices!

    HI
    I have a MacBook Pro which backs up to a TimeMachine at work running under 10.5.4. This works great.
    But my machine (Airport Utility) sees many other Mac devices somewhere else in the building ... an AirPort Express and an AirPort Base Station among others.
    Right now I regularly get automatic pop ups asking me to download firmware updates and configure these other devices, which of course I can't... I don't have passwords to access! My Time Capsule is up to date.
    Any ideas on how to stop this happening ?
    Thanks
    Lee

    HI
    I don't run it. It just runs itself! As soon as I open the lid of my laptop Time Machine usually starts a backup since it hasn't done one all night. The Time Machine drive mounts on the desktop and data starts moving. The the Airport Utility pops up with firmware update notifications...
    Maybe there's some auto update turned on somewhere...

  • My macbook pro screen remains grey after latest firmware update

    i just had the update notification for the latest firmware, proceeded to do so, and the screen remains grey, its been more than one hour and still grey, since its a firmware update i don't want to disturb it, but could it be that is taking so long?

    Reboot it by pressing the power button down hard to force a shutdown.
    If your still having problems, take it to Apple. I hope you have AppleCare becuase if they can't fix it, it's a new logicboard.

  • After the most recent iOS update, notification center doesn't show messages from people who are on "do not disturb mode". Anyone know how to fix it?

    Originally, even if I had some messages on the "do not disturb" mode, I would still be able to preview them in the notification center. After the latest update about a week or so ago, the only messages that appear are the ones that aren't on "do not disturb". I've tried taking them all off the DND mode and turning it back on, messed with the settings, even turned my phone off and on, but nothing is working.
    Any ideas?

    Follow-up to my earlier post that iPhone 6 Bluetooth not working correctly.  I purchased a Jawbone MiniJambox to use as a speaker phone in my office.  Everyone in our company thinks they are the best.  However, it is experiencing the same issues as with all my other Bluetooth headsets.  Everything works except cannot answer or hang up calls pushing the buttons on the Bluetooth devices.  The Bluetooth patio speakers in our courtyard also have the same issue.  However, my colleagues using iPhone 5 and 5s who did not update to iOS8 are using all Bluetooth devices without any issues.  Apple says it is a problem with my Bluetooth device.  Come on Apple.... This makes 7 different Bluetooth devices with different manufacturers.  You cannot possibly believe the problem is with the Bluetooth devices when iOS7 works perfectly fine...
    On another issue, my iPhone 5s worked perfectly fine in my vehicle entertainment center connected via USB.  The vehicle entertainment center had complete control of my iPhone and iTunes.  However, now I plug in my new iPhone 6 and it no longer communicates with my vehicle entertainment center.  Again when I called Apple, they said my vehicle entertainment center needed a firmware update.  Are you kidding me...  That is a bunch of BS...!!!

  • Firmware update 1308.0001 for lumia 620 rollout

    i would like to know what the regional distribution order is for lumia firmware updates. I have a lumia 620 from hongkong and i live in australia. no update so far . and i make sure to check like twice a day
    has anyone in australia or in any other region received the 1308.001, or the latest ones for the 820 and 920 that are supposed to come in the same rollout ? they have all been anounced mid-march.
    an official statement about this would be great as well.

    What was announced was that the now shipping (from manufacturing) devices have the new firmware and an OTA update would start at a future date. Since there have been no further announcements it would be safe to assume the OTA update has not started yet.
    There is no need to 'check multiple times a day' you will get a notification on the phone when the update becomes available to you.

  • Thunderbolt display firmware update 1.2 won't install correctly

    On Friday 11/13/2014, I received a Software Update notification in OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 that there was an update available for "Thunderbolt Display Firmware Update 1.2". I tried installing this several times, but every time it tells me "The Thunderbolt Display Firmware Update could not complete." Now I have 6 failed install attempts showing in Software Update, plus still the still to be installed update itself.  
    If I click on the "More info" button in the failed installation message, it takes me to this page: About Thunderbolt Display Firmware Update 1.2 - Apple Support
    On that page it suggest to check the "About this Mac" info for Thunderbolt Display, where "The Firmware Version should be 26.2 and the Port Micro Firmware Version should be 2.0.7 after the update." 
    My Thunderbolt Display is currently on Firmware Version 22.2, with Port Micro Firmware Version 0.0.21. Why won't this update install?

    I had a similar problem: The "Thunderbolt display firmware update 1.2" kept reappearing in AppStore, even though the uppdate seemed successful.
    According to Apple[1] the update was successful when the the Firmware Version is 26.2 and the Port Micro Firmware Version is 2.0.7 (visible in About this Mac -> SystemReport).
    Above versions were correct in my case, but the update still kept appering in AppStore... (probably I did download and install the update manually after the first failure, but I don't remember ...)
    To get rid of the annoying update in AppStore I used the softwareupdate command[2] on the commandline:
        softwareupdate --ignore TBdisplayFWUpdate1.2
      [1]: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204450

  • Macbook Pro Firmware update 1.5.1

    So every single time I have done a software update I have gotten this Macbook Pro Firmware update. I always have the firmware update checked and it never goes away.
    My current firmware boot version is: MBP31.0070.B02
    the software update says this:
    This update fixes several issues to improve the stability of MacBook Pro computers.
    After the firmware is successfully applied to your Mac, your Boot ROM Version will be:
    MBP21.00A5.B08 or MBP31.0070.B07
    So the firmware never gets installed. Whats up with this?

    Please excuse me if this seems a stupid question but I am a little confused by the various Apple software upgrades, I take the automatic upgrades as and when I receive notification. It is the firmware upgrades I do not fully understand, am I correct in assuming that this is a manual upgrade by the computer owner ? I own a 1st generation MBP the Boot rom ? version I have is MBP11.0055.B08, I would like to know if the new version 1.5.1 is suitable or a requirement for my machine or only for more modern versions of the MBP ?

  • MacBook Air SMC Firmware Update v2.0 update available again and again.  How do I fix it?

    I have installed MacBook Air SMC Firmware Update v2.0 three times and I still get an update available notification asking to install it again.  This is a mid-13 MacBook Air running OSX 10.9.3.   System info lists the SMC version as 2.13f7.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

    Hi,
    - Are there any status or error messages in /var/log/install.log
    - The Firmware version it should install is 2.12f137
    - If there isn't anything in the log try:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    and/or About NVRAM and PRAM
    and check whether there is installation.
    If no install, try OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode
    then reboot normal, try the install again.
    Hope this helps

  • How do those who don't watch boards find out about firmware updates?

    Since 'Software Update' doesn't alert users to firmware updates, I wonder how those that don't monitor these boards and other 'Mac news' sites find out about firmware updates?
    Yes, Boot Camp made headline news in many major newspapers and those who wanted to install it found they needed to update the firmware first.
    But, had I not read about it elsewhere earlier, I would not have known about the second MBP firmware update (which, apparently, solves some of the 'whine' issues - I've had no whining but I like to keep my firmware, in particular, up to date!).
    Just as a note to Apple - you've a database of all who have registered their MPB's (at least those with AppleCare if not those who simply run set-up with new Mac purchases). If firmware updates aren't included in the 'Software Updates' procedure, shooting off an email to those with machines that might be in need of firmware updates may save a world of grief to overworked phone support techs.

    Yes, I'm familiar with the support page but my point is that not all (in act, likely very few) are familiar enough with that page to go to "Top Downloads" to find firmware updates.
    On page 25 of the MacBook Pro Users Guide, Apple DOES suggest, in the next to the last paragraph, suggest "For support information, user discussion boards, and the latest Apple software downloads, go to www.apple.com/support."
    But if a new user is having problems he or she is more likely than not to pick up the phone first - and although there's the 90-day phone support and 3 year phone support for those who purchase AppleCare (which new users may not - particularly if buying from, say, CompUSA or other stores who push 'extended warranties' even with the purchase of products whose manufacturers already provide LIFETIME warranties) Apple has thoughtfully provided automated Software Updates (which Windows switchers understand all too well!) but no automated way to be lead to firmware updates. It's my feeling that if firmware notification were included in SU notifications, or via email, it might reduce the number of phone calls and result in happier computers.
    While I enjoy reading all the Mac news on a daily basis, a lot of users don't and there may be an even greater number who don't know the wheat from the chaff (or even know where to find the wheat!).
    Some firmware updates are critical, some of minor importance, and some (more and more of late, it seems) just a bit cryptic (for instance, 1.01 says "This firmware update is for (MacBook Pro)/iMac (early 2006) computers with Intel processors only. It now runs on localized systems that use languages that read right to left." and then lists the languages supported - which do not include Hebrew or Arabic, two "languages that read right to left".
    The only reason that I brought this up is that there are a number of sites that reported that the firmware update alleviates some of the 'whine' that some MBP users are reporting (and now I am reading of 'hum' issues - forget GarageBand! An hundred MBP's could replace a symphony!). Now is that true or not? Apple doesn't say - some users report yes, some no. And as there are no whine or hum issues on the iMac, I doubt 1.01 would 'solve' any of those problems with that machine (and interesting, too, that the "iMac (early 2006) Firmware Update 1.0.1" isn't in the "Top Downloads" section as is "MacBook Pro (early 2006) Firmware Update 1.0.1": what's up with that? Are there really more MBPs out there than Intel iMacs? Or are MBP owners running Windows in Arabic more than Intel iMac owners? Or just hopeful that the update does, indeed, help with the whine problem.
    I keep getting off topic (sort of)...
    ...my point is that it would be simple to notify, and simpler for (in my opinion), Apple to notify customers of firmware updates.

  • When is N73 firmware update due

    I called Vodafone (UK) to ask what I can do with my 8 week old N73 that repeatedly dies on me - whilst idle, on a call, or writing a txt. They said they were aware of issues in the firmware but that they didnt know when these would be fixed. *#0000# = V 2.0628.0.0.1 10-07-2006 RM-133 Nokia M73 (39.01) Is there a planned release date for the update? How will it be available? Are there any automatic notification methods? Many thanks

    This is a user to user site appearantly... So no Nokia people here (atleast, don't count on it).
    There is a minor firmware update available (from .0.0.1 to .0.0.3) but I don't think that will solve your problems.
    Nobody knows when the next big firmware is, although we all think it's near. There is a AsianPacific (APAC) version of a 3.x.x.x. firmware but noone knows anything about it. We're all waiting for it
    Updating can be done at a Nokia Service Centre or, when the N73 is added, through the Nokia Software Updater which you can get on their site. This updater already lists a number of other models (N70, N80, N93 and more) but unfortunately no N73. The only way to know about a new firmware is checking the threads on this forum and others I'm afraid.
    Btw, you don't happen to have 3d ringtones on (and especially not in combination with 'say callers name' option) since those seem to cause MANY problems.
    I'm on the same firmware as you but no problems here, not those anyway. Hope to help

  • Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0 does not install

    I just got notification from Software Update that a firmware update for my Apple Aluminum Keyboard was available. I attempted to install it and after three attempts, I got "Unexpected Error (3:4)". That's it. Nothing else. I didn't find any further information associated with the download and no other documentation. I did go as far as removing the keyboard from a KVM switch and USB Hub and connected it directly to my G4 Mac Mini. Still no success. Does anyone have any clue about software/firmware updates for peripherals that fail in this way? I've had the keyboard for about 3 months.

    I also had the error "An unexpected error occurred (4:3)" when installing the Keyboard Firmware Update. I resolved the matter by unplugging my KVM switch (and all other USB devices) and by connecting the keyboard directly to the computer.

  • Mifi 4510L Mifi Hotspot...is it the network? and what about the firmware update?

    I have spent several months trying to seek a solution on the repeated and frequent disconnects from the Verizon wireless network using my Mifi 4510 L.  No success.  I have conversed with Verizon Wireless "experts" on this matter and have basically been ignored, since they do not have a solution. It has cost me a pretty penny in wireless costs due to lost connections in downloads, etc...for which I do not get any credit from Verizon on my wireless bill...go figure.
    I have even been accused by Verizon that the problem is my computer and hardware, even though I have ran several hardware, software, and "real-life" connection checks on other wireless networks with no issues at all.  I even have been getting better connectivity when I use my Verizon USB UML290...but I hate having to switch moving my SIM card from the USB Modem to the MIfi4510L...one of these days the SIM card will fail. Verizon has checked the signal strength at my home and work locations (which I already knew as good), but never heard back from them.
    Anyway,  I have verified that my wireless network adapter works just fine on other wireless networks (no dropouts, etc).  I have even upgraded to another Windows Operating System - Windows 7...which is more superior than Vista in dealing with wireless communications.  I have implemented quite a number of the solutions provided by other great Verizon Wireless Community members, but the connectivity problems continue to occur.
    When I did a review of my wireless hardware logs, I noticed that when I was encountering problems, the dynamically assigned address given to me on the Verizon Wireless network changed quite a bit, even when I was using the same web site. When my wireless connection worked fine, the dynamically assigned address was consistent.  This seemed to change when I encounter peak network load times. 
    I would appreciate a straight answer from Verizon Wireless on what is going on with the network.  I live in a solid 3G coverage area...but just far away from 4G to benefit for the increased throughput.  The closest 4G location footprint is about 40 miles away from me.
    Finally, what about the Mifi 4510 L firmware update?  I have yet to see any notification about this firmware update, either through normal e-mail channels or even through my Mifi configuration site
    http://192.168.1.1/mifi.cgi
    What gives?
    I realize that I am sounding a little perturbed about this matter, but it has been almost 4 months now...and Verizon is not living up to their part of the bargain on providing good tech support on the Mifi 4510L.  When they do not have an answer...they ignore the customer.   Not good business!!!

    The firmware update was released a few weeks ago and there were multiple threads in this forum for it:
    Software Update: Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi™ 4510L
    The firmware update primarily addresses a problem with the MiFi switching from 3G to 4G and back.  I would not expect it to resolve a connection issue for anyone in a 3G only area.  Work through the firmware update instructions included in the link above and see if it helps. 
    There were no email notifications but the MiFi should have been redirecting you to the MiFi homepage every time you tried to browse the internet.  The firmware update is mandatory so if you have not already completed the update then there might be something wrong with your device. 

  • /Applications/Utilities/MacBook EFI Firmware Update... Missing?!

    Hey folks, I've done a search of the forums but to no avail. A Google search has turned up precisely nothing like what I'm experiencing here. I have no idea if it's normal or if my wee 'Book's playing up.
    Basically, in checking my RSS feeds, I was informed of the release of a new firmware update for C2D MacBooks, available via Software Update. I ran Software Update and... nothing. I decided I'd check in Apps/Utilities and use the EFI Updater to manually update my computer's firmware, but the utility seems to be missing altogether. Anyone else experienced this, or have any idea what's going on? It used to be there, and I can't really think of anything that might have made if go 'poof!'
    I realise this isn't exactly a major issue, but I can't say I'm at ease with the disappearance of bits and bobs from my Mac.
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    Gray.

    Well if it's any consolation Leopard seems to have thrown over the generic EFI Updater that used to fly standby on my MacBook, but apparently left a new one or left the newer one that may well have been abandoned on my iMac after that rather disconcerting task was deemed necessary a few months prior.
    Seems that the updater app comes with the new image whenever and however the time to update becomes a pressing concern so maybe space saving has something to do with the policy.
    There does seem to be a colorful spectrum of issues surrounding the ins and outs of EFI firmware notifications and techniques from platform version to another but
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303364
    clears up any confusion pretty much and
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
    seems to nail down which chicken goes in which pot. Nonetheless I picked up a bum steer at Apple Support Downloads yesterday over that shiny new "iMac EFI Firmware Update 1.3" delightfulness recently trotted out as better than sliced bread for something they refer to as an iMac!
    So joyful I was at the thrill of being ahead of the line I I dropped everything, downloaded and installed it, but only to be politely informed that my unit was lacking any of the discomforts it was intended to relieve. It's nice to get something for nothing but I kind of wish I could say the same :P

  • Xperia Z2 Firmware Update via PC Companion = FAIL!

    I appologize if this is a duplicate post.  I searched the forum before posting but it seemed similar posts weren't exactly the same issue(s) I'm experiencing.
    I'm getting the notification that there is a firmware update for my Xperia Z2 tablet but that I am required to use PC Companion to download/install it.  However, for some reason PC Companion refuses to detect that my tablet is connected.  I've tried multiple usb ports and two different computers.  Under device manager it doesn't show any device driver issues and the usb drivers are installed and up-to-date.  However I constantly run into error message after error message.  The tablet is set to MTP mode and connected via the included Sony usb cable.  I've followed every wizard, prompt, guide, etc. but in the end PC Companion still says there's no phone/tablet connected.   Would be so much easier if it would just download the update to the tablet like EVERY other android device I own does.

    Did you take a look at this?

  • Automatic app update notification in Store not wor...

    I had to reset my Lumia 720 two months ago after a failed attempt to update to Amber left the dreaded spinning cogs on my phone for more than two weeks. I managed to reset it and update it to Amber. Afterwards, i realised that the auto update notifications which usually appear in Store has seized functioning. It has hasn't worked to date though manual checks reveal app updates occasionally. Pls help me resolve this. Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi mui2g6,
    Did you installed a firmware via software? It seems to be the problem.
    Regarding the cogs, this is the solution, taken from another forum:
    ==========================================================
    After spending 8 hours trying to recover from spinning gears following a hard reset, of all the methods I tried, this is the one that worked:
    -Phone was showing spinning gears
    -Battery was low
    -Took Sim card out
    -I logged into find my phone and erased my phone using the on-line feature:https://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/my
    -Let it sit for 1 hour then turned it off
    -Press and hold the Volume down & Power buttons until the phone vibrates then release the power button but keep pressing the volume down key for approximately 10 seconds until you see a low battery on the screen.
    -If you don’t get the low batt and you get the Nokia lego then press the following buttons in this order;
    --Volume UP
    --Volume DOWN
    --POWER
    --Volume DOWN.
    -Your phone will now automatically reboot and try again till you get the low batt
    -When the low batt shows up do nothing, it will turn off by itself
    -Let sit for 1 hour and turn back on
    -Press and hold the Volume down & Power buttons until the phone vibrates then release the power button but keep pressing the volume down key for approximately 10 seconds until you see a low battery on the screen.
    -Plug your phone into the charger when you see the low batt
    -If you don’t get the low batt and you get the Nokia lego and go back to the spinning gears of death then press the following buttons in this order;
    --Volume UP
    --Volume DOWN
    --POWER
    --Volume DOWN.
    -Plug your phone into the charger when you see the low batt but not till you see it
    -Now press the following buttons in this order;
    --Volume UP
    --Volume DOWN
    --POWER
    --Volume DOWN.
    -Your phone will now automatically reboot it will show the spinning gears again but within 10 mins it will start up as a new device.
    ==========================================================
    Remember you have to download official upgrades from your carrier, otherwise the phone won't be able to show some features.
    Kind regards,
