Firmware updates through Logic, how ?

I need to update the firmware on my Logic Control. The Mackie read me says:
"Import the MIDI file you just downloaded from the Mackie web site into your audio software application, and make sure the Mackie Control/Logic Control is the target midi device on channel one."
How do i set this target device and channel ?
Thanks
Faisal

Assuming you're MCU is connected to the MIDI port on your computer labelled "MyPort", then go to the environment window, New -> Instrument, and set it to "MyPort" and channel 1.
Assign that instrument you just created to an arrange track, and drag the MIDI file onto that track. Now, the MIDI contents will be sent to the "MyPort" MIDI port on channel 1.

HELP! Frozen mac due to firmware update crash. How do i restart it?

I have had my Tiger 10.4.7 Mac for 4 months, no problems, but when computer done a firmware update, it got part way through and I lost power to computer. Now when I try to turn on all that happens is a black screen with the white power dot on constant. I tried to install the OS X install disc but I cant get that out now as none of the keyboard buttons seem to work. I tried the support phone line, but they just told me to download a firmware patch. I lookedon the site but have no idea which one they suggest to try, and how would I get it to recognise it anyway? Any ideas please?

There is a download for restoring original firmware on the Apple download page, for each computer.
You need to download it, burn it to a CD and follow the instructions.
And never do a firmware upgrade on any computer unless it is on a UPS. Sometimes it is not recoverable and requires factory service to repair.
But I suspect that the restore firmware CD will work for you.

Push firmware update through BES 4.17 SP7 - help please

Hi,
I've been asked to update the firmware on all my companies devices from our BES 4 SP7. From reading, I'm not sure whether this means the device software (version 5 the latest I think) or the OS (version 7 the latest I think). is required to be updated? What is the difference between these?
I was wondering where I get the software from, how I can add it to the BES and how I can deploy it wirelessly?
I imagine there are many old devices which the new firmware is not compatible. How can I find out which are compatible and which are not?
Thank for any help.

Firmware update through Software Update

Hey guys, I have a Mac Pro with RAID setup, and as such I can't install the firmware update unless I load it onto an external device. What I'm wanting to know is where the Firmware Update file is located so I can move it, and stop the dialog box popping up whenever someone logs in. There are multiple users on the machine and I don't want them screwing around with firmware stuff!
Cheers

Hi,
usually Firmware updaters are apps placed inside /Applications/Utilities and are called something like "MacBook Pro EFI-Firmware-Update.app".

I'm having trouble downloading the firmware update through iTunes...

For three days I've been trying to get iTunes to download the update. I get anywhere from 10% to 80% of the file downloaded, then get a time-out error. When I resume the download, it starts over from the beginning. I must have downloaded the first 100 MB 20 times now.
My internet connection is strong and stable, but I have not been able to get this download through iTunes.
Is there a direct download available somewhere? Is there a way to have iTunes save a partial download and continue where it left off?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Go HERE for the direct download links.
Once you download the update file, you simply connect your iPhone, and press the option key (Mac) or the shift key (Windows) while clicking the Update button in iTunes, and you'll be prompted to locate the file you downloaded.

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.

Help: Stuck in an infinite loop with firmware update

Need some help here.
I have a 2013 21.5" iMac, running Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.
Recently, during a firmware update, my kids pulled the cord (they claim innocence). Now, when I boot the machine, it goes to the white firmware update screen, does the full progress bar, and then shuts down.
It doesn't restart itself.
When I power it back on, it does the firmware update again.
How can I fix this? I have access to other Macs, USB keydrives, Firewire cable, etc. Just need to know exactly what to do. Tried searching the web, but didn't find an answer for this situation. I'd rather resolve myself than truck it down to the Apple Store.

You can try this:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
If that doesn't work, see below.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

Canadian firmware update

I just got my first firmware update through Service Station. My Thrive has gone from 0003 to 0006. Still seems a long way behind the US firmware but maybe it's just named differently in Canada. Hopeful that this may have some positive effect on my SOD and random reboot issues.

A few days ago I held my breath and upgraded my Canadian AT100 to Android 3.2.1 using the built-in Toshiba utility, was running 3.1.03.5.0006 and now running 3.2.1.33.5.0003. No real reason to upgrade because it was all working fine before. Knock on wood, I haven't had any major problems..
1. I don't really use the SD Card for anything much.
2. Update took a really long time (10-15 minutes) and I thought it had locked up when it was booting for the first time.
3. WiFi seems a *little* less consistent than before. WiFi light often stays on when its sleeping AND it occasionally doesn't seem to connect up so quick after sleeping; under WiFi options it will say "Error" a few times before connecting. Battery life doesn't seem any different either way.
4. A few applications (Evernote, Gallery, RoboForm) seemed to temporarily break after the upgrade, fixed by going to Applications, and Clearing user data.
Screen response seems slightly faster since the upgrade but it might be my imagination. After the first month of wondering and debating if I'd bought the right tablet and finally giving up on the idea of returning it or selling it, only then did I really begin to enjoy my Thrive. Was concerned that Netflix and video on Skype would never come but now I'm happy they did. Wasn't really too bothered about the upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2 and I'm not really bothered about the upgrade to 4.0 (ICS). While it's always nice to have the latest and greatest, I don't really see any killer features added.

Apple TV Firmware Updates

I want to make sure my box doesn't get a firmware update automatically. How does the Apple TV get it's updates and can I make sure an update doesn't come automatically?
Thanks in advance.

you're not disabling anything in the settings menu.
the update menu allows you to a manual update. it doesn't give you any option to disable updates.

Firmware update for n91

My nokia software updater tells me there are no available updates for the n91(current versio 2.00.052), but i heard about a version 2.10.013. This version has issues with a few 3rd party tools which the later version does not. My product code is 0537293.
I have an n91-5 RM-158 model. Is the firmware update out, and how can i update it?

That is very strange.. I have the phone from India and the code is RM 43.
And as of today the 2.10 is not yet authorised by Airtel atleast.

having trust in Apple has run software update on blind date basis, ie, just pressed the button to update everything what was proposed .
i did not have a look, what was proposed to update, unfortunately ...
apparently, some firmware update have been loaded and started by default... my lovely mac book pro restarted with grey screen and progress bar
which looks as usually available only while it's updating firmaware . It took one try, did not work out, tried once again and then just switched mac down.
i've tried to restart it once again, unfortunately it always the same story, ie two tries and then shot down.
i was trying to look on the net for some information , what sort of firmware update Apple proposed recently, and what kind of trouble i could run into,
but no information related to my case available.
can anybody help me, how can i fix the problem ?? any shortcuts, to stop this update and return back to onld firmware ??
i just can't boot my computer normally, cause its bump into this update once and once again and fails to go through it..
thank you in advance,
Vladimir

Just yesterday I managed to rescue (on the last ditch attempt) a strawberry iMac DV (400MHz) that had exactly this problem. I read through the documentation suggested on this thread and discovered that it had moved all the way through to the 'Stage 4' issue; it would automatically power down about 6-7 seconds after the welcome chime. Before reading the docs I'd zapped the PRAM and removed the battery multiple times thinking I was doing the right thing, so it was well and truly stuck.
Luckily, before it died I had updated to OS 9.1 and run the firmware update, but of course you need to reboot for the update to actually be written to the chip. I'd actually given up and put it on the recycle pile, only to find myself with a spare half hour in the afternoon. This is exactly what I did to get it back to life. Note that the battery had been out for a couple of hours prior to trying this.
1. Put on desk, upside down with all panels open, not connected to anything.
2. Remove everything (which in this machine was just RAM - battery was already out and it had no Airport card).
3. Put battery back in. Very old battery, so no idea if it had much charge.
4. Pressed internal PRAM reset button once, briefly (no more than 1 second).
5. Waited for about 20 seconds.
6. Put a 256MB card into slot J13 that I had just pilfered from an old PC. It previously had in it two 64MB cards.
7. Plugged into a monitor, then the mains and turned power on.
8. Waited for about 20 seconds.
9. Pushed in the programmers button and held it down while tapping the power button.
10. Released programmers button when the evil beep sound happened.
I was then very surprised that it not only stayed running, but actually started the firmware update! I guess I was very lucky in that I'd managed to run the firmware application in OS 9.1 before the machine got stuck, otherwise you'd need to boot into Mac OS, run the app and then reboot a second time to get it to apply the update.
Best of luck - this iMac DV is now off to a new home instead of the bin. I was pleasantly surprised with how well it copes with OS X 10.4.11.

How do I install the firmware update for LinkSys E900 router?

Hi,
I'm using Mac 10.7.5 and a few months back had purchased the E900 wireless router. It has firmware 1.0.03 installed and I noticed there is a 1.0.04 update. I downloaded the update, which is a .bin file, but I do not have a CD burner nor access to a Windows machine. How can I install the firmware update?
Thanks, - Dave
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Simple, with your wired computer (never wireless) just access the GUI in the router and perform the firmware update. Just point to the .bin file and away you go. Make sure to hard reset the router and reconfigure it after you are done.

4GB upgrade now needs Firmware update - how?

Just updated my 15' Macbook Pro unibody (bought early 2009 - so maybe late 2008 model?) 2.4Ghz.
My MBP now seems slow? even though the RAM seems to be recognised (from Crucial) as :
4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
I spoke to cruical about the memory and they said that sometimes it may need a "Firmware update" after installing RAM?? - Can anyone give me steps on what or how this is done?? is it under 'software update'?
I am still on 10.5.8, and thinking of backing up and re-installing a full 10.6.4 and moving up to Snow Leopard.
Would this cure it, and maybe update the firmware in the same instance?
Thanks for any help!

Poor computer performance is one of the symptoms of bad RAM, a great first step is to run the end-user diagnostic called the Apple Hardware Test (AHT), as detailed in your MacBook Pro manual, and also by removing the RAM and checking performance when running the laptop with the RAM supplied by Apple.

Firmware for the MacBook Pro is obtained via software update or by download from the Apple Support Website.
I am still on 10.5.8, and thinking of backing up and re-installing a full 10.6.4 and moving up to Snow Leopard.
Moving to Snow Leopard is a good move generally, but it won't solve a hardware issue such as bad RAM.
Would this cure it, and maybe update the firmware in the same instance?
It is always advisable to run the latest version of OS X and firmware on your Mac.
