Has latest firmware update killed y TC?

Hi all,
I have recently purchased a Time Capsule to back up y MacBook Pro and my iMac. All worked well after a bit of trouble with initial set up, but then a few days ago I got a message telling me to run a firmware update for the TC. Since running that I have been unable to get it back on line. I have reset it a number of times but still my machines do not pick it up when running the set-up through the Airport Utility.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Frank

Well I did the very same upgrade and now the airport utility cannot find the time capsule ? What a pain in the *** is apple aware of this? How can I get Airport Utility to 'not' scan so I can manually reset the firmware on the time capsule ? It took days to back up my G5 and iBook and in the end ethernet was the only way. Anyone know how to fix this mess ?

Latest firmware update killed my network, HELP!

so.. I updated the firmware about a month ago when it was first available.. My device is completely stock and i'm not really ready to root nor factory reset it. I reset it before due to an error on the backup assistant screwing with my external sd card (the real issue was the copy and paste error some devices were faced with). I've been through about 4, 32gb externals and the latest sandisk just sent me.. is bad too. :/
But, that's not the issue i'm getting at. Since the lastest firmware update with caller ID, etc.. I've had little to no signal, dropped messages in my house, completely dropped 4G LTE while using GPS.. horrible due to some areas I was in.. slow or lagged device to the point where i've had to restart my device 3-4 times each day in the last week...
Can someone either tell me if there is a quick solution to this or what the next step should be in this process. because this whole "we've retracted the update but are looking into a fix" ** isn't very settling. Since, on Verizon's time.. I'm afraid the next update won't come for a few months..

I am having the same issues described by everyone else (dropped 4G, worse signal, etc.) after the update to MD3.
My wife's phone is identical but without the update and it works fine (like mine did before the update)
WHAT is the resolution to this issue, Verizon? I really don't believe I should have to go down the root-my-phone route and find third party sources to fix this issue. Why can't you just push the old firmware back to my phone?
I am quite disappointed that what was my best smartphone experience to date has been ruined.

HT3728 Does factory reset go back to latest firmware update.

I have resently updated my airport express to latest firmware. The airport express is configured as an extension to my wifi with an Extreme as main device.
Shortly after the firmware update (1-2 days) the express stopped working and status light turned yellow.
I have since then tried to do factory reset several times without getting the device up and running again.
When doing factory reset the status light turns yellow after releasing the button and stays amber with short interval with green (1 second every minute or so)
I have not been able to discover the express from my iPad, iPone or iMac again.
Could the reaons be latest firmware update?
Any advice to get it back to normal?
Thanks,
Per

Does factory reset go back to the latest firmware update.
A Factory Default Reset will not affect the installed firmware.
Shortly after the firmware update (1-2 days) the express stopped working and status light turned yellow.
A solid amber light is unfortunately an indication that the internal power supply inside the AirPort Express is failing, or has failed.
I have since then tried to do factory reset several times without getting the device up and running again.
The AirPort Express has failed, and will need to be replaced.
When doing factory reset the status light turns yellow after releasing the button and stays amber with short interval with green (1 second every minute or so)
This is yet another confirmation that the Express has failed, and will need to be replaced.

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.

Internet stopped working on MBA after latest firmware update. Help please!!!

Internet stopped working after installing the latest firmware update. WiFi still connects to router, our other mac desktop still connects to internet as usual (same network). I can't even re-install the MBA OS since it needs an internet connection!!!
Any ideas?

FIXED.
I swapped our wireless router for a newer one, internet seems to work fine again (we were sent a new one by our internet provider which we never set up until now).

Zen Touch latest Firmware Update...player not connec

I tried installing the latest Firmware update for my Zen Touch (released 2-09).
The player is connected and recognized by Windows and the Media Explorer. However, when I try to install the new Firmware it keeps saying "player not connected".
I tried d/l two different language packages cause I wasn't sure what counted - player language or operating system langauge. Anyway, that didn't make a difference.
So what do I do? I have no idea where to start. It's firmware for the correct device connected through Windows XP.
I have made a firmware update before, which worked fine. After that I updated the media explorer software.
Help is very much appreciated! Thank you in advance.

Perhaps it's worth making sure no software is using the player, so reboot the PC, and turn off the Creative Detector. Then try again.
Are you trying to upgrade to the .0.03 version?

Mid 2006 iMac Boot Problem (Since latest firmware update)

I have a Mid 2006 17" iMac. Ever since the latest firmware update in early December, about every other startup I've been having boot problems. After the white screen with the Apple Logo and the spinning wheel it goes to a blue screen like normal, but instead of the 'Loading Mac OS X' white window popping up it stays blue and the spinning loading wheel starts. I've left it loading for quite a while before and nothing changes. I have to do a force shut off by holding the power button. and then I start it up and it will boot normally.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Actually, I think it'san early 2006.

TC issues after latest firmware update

Here is the skinny, my TC went through the normal firmware update a bit ago. Wednesday my Internet stopped working, when I use the Airport Utility app it showed the TC online, at first, then it gave me the error that the TC did not have a valid IP. Thought might have been a problem on my ISP's end so I grabbed another router and set it up Internet no problem. Has to be the new firmware right so I pushed the firmware back 3 versions, and still the same thing no valid IP but connected to the Internet but no HDD (Yes it said not a valid IP but connected to the Internet on one wireless PC). Everything else in the house would not connect to the TC they could see it but when you went to connect never asked for a password and I got the spindle of death type deal. I saved my settings and did a hard reset with the button on the back of the TC, started over and rebuilt the connection, same thing happened not a valid IP. I have read that Apple released 3 different firmware updates supposedly the last one works, it doesn't when I load the firmware I get the same error TC does not have a valid IP. I need some help, I have cycled through power down and power up situations over and over. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Need some more info.
What is the modem.. make and model?
Is it both modem and router or just a modem?
What is the actual model of the TC.. the number from the base.. A1xxx where the x are numbers.
The latest firmware is an issue.. that is 7.6.4 and you should go back to 7.6.1
But it does seem hard to get rid of properly.
I want you to do a factory reset not just a hard reset.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Please redo the setup using all SMB names.. that is short, no spaces and purely alphanumeric characters.
eg TCgenx (use actual gen if you want) for base station name.
TCwifi for wireless name. (or TC24ghz and TC5ghz which is well worth naming both bands so you can test more carefully).
Please download and install a v5 utility on a computer if any of them use up to Mountain Lion.
Tell us what OS the computers are running and I can tell you how to install the old airport utility.
Test the TC in bridge to your other router is also a good alternative.

Latest firmware update 6.3 and dead airport express basestation

My Airport Express basestation (aebs) is 13 month old. It suddenly went dead. No light, no reset, nothing.
And maybe a coincidence:
It happened only 36 hours after I loaded the new 6.3 firmware update.
I wonder if anyone had the same experience regarding a dead aebs due to firmware update 6.3. At least - compared to the posts here - a dead aebs is not such a rare incident as one might wish it would.
Mac OS X (10.4)

Exactly the same has happened to mine, although I don't recall doing a firmware update. Yesterday I just downloaded and installed iTunes 6.0.2 & QuickTime 7.0.4. However, when I came home from work this evening my Airport Express had no LED on as normal. It was cold and had obviously been off for sometime. The fuse it OK and it's just one month after the 1-year guarantee period. Sounds suspiciously like a plot to me....

After latest firmware update, AppleTV2 no longer sends signal

So I updated my AppleTV2 with the latest firmware, and now it no longer sends a signal out.
Has Apple stated when they're going to fix this?

MicroUSB cable doesn't fit in AppleTV2. Try again.
Edit: Apparently the MicroUSB cable I was trying to use wasn't 'micro' enough.
I'm now trying again with a MicroUSB cable used to recharge my Xbox 360 wireless headset. Heh... the irony is amusing.

Latest Secuity Update kills twain support in Photoshop

After installing the latest security update, Photoshop Elements 3 crashes at launch when it gets to "Building Twain Menu..."
Others have had the same problem and I found a work around on MacFixIt: move the twain plugin out of the Plugins folder. This kills the Import From Twain Device function so you'll have to use ImageCapture, EpsonScan, VueScan or another utility to scan.
iMac 2.16Ghz 20" Intel Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.4.8) Epson CX5000 All-In-One

I don't think this is specific to the security update. The Adobe TWAIN driver is notoriously buggy and ditching it has long been one of Adobe's solutions for when the program won't launch at all. Most scanners that allow you to do this have their own scanner plug-ins (Like canon) that supersede this one anyway. It's really no big deal.

WAP4410N wireless traffic locks up even when running latest firmware update

I maintain multiple buildings, and each building has anywhere between 1 and 4 Cisco/Linksys WAP4410N access points. The problem is that at random intervals, the access points just stop sending and receiving wireless traffic. Every day or two, I have to log into every single access point (either via HTTPS or SSH) and reboot them in order for them to start working again.
In short, here are the config details:
They are all version 2 hardware (either WAP4410N-A V02 or WAP4410N-E V02).
They are running IPv4 (IPv6 is disabled) and get static IP addresses via DHCP.
When there are WAPs with overlapping signals, each WAP is on a different non-overlapping channel (1, 6, or 11).
Each WAP has two SSIDs (with spaces in their names). One is secured with WPA2. The other is unsecured.
There are two VLANs on the Ethernet interface. Each of the two SSIDs are assigned to a separate VLAN.
There is a DHCP server on the network, so the WAPs do not actually assign IP addresses to clients.
All of the WAPs are running on PoE switches. However, some are gigabit and some are 10/100 switches. Brands vary (Dell and Linksys) and models vary.
Cisco finally recognized this issue as:
CSCtx62203—In certain environments and traffic model, the WAP4410N may lockup after some undetermined time. Workaround: Reboot the device.
As such, the workaround didn’t really offer anything new. Rebooting every WAP ends up being a very time consuming process. It’s awful. And since you have no control over when this issue surfaces and can’t put any safeguards in place, I get calls about it at various points of the day almost every day.
Supposedly the most recent firmware update (2.0.6.1) claimed to fix the issue, but it only seemed to make it worse. So now instead of a WAP locking up every day or two, it locks up anywhere between every 15 minutes to 4 hours when in use.
The firmware was updated and the following issue was fixed in firmware version 2.0.6.1: CSCtx62203—In certain environments and traffic model, the WAP4410N may lockup after some undetermined time. (A protection mechanism was added to guard against sporadic problems with client association that could occur after six to 24 hours.)
As for troubleshooting, there are no error packets. On access points running firmware 2.0.6.1, these messages appear:

These log messages appear on both WAP4410N-A V02 and WAP4410N-E V02 devices.
I noticed that when the “beacon stuck” message appears, wireless traffic locked up 10-15 minutes prior to the message’s appearance in the log, and the SSID drops for 4-6 minutes after the message appears.
Is there anything that can be done to address the issue?

1) LAN port speed doesn't appear to have any effect
2) Forcing a connection type doesn't seem to have any effect. This is also rather impractical.
3) I don't have that option (though there is a TKIP/AES mixed option). Either way, I'd rather not have to resort to using a weaker encryption method.
4) No effect.
I did manage to find some information about the error message (older versions of firmware didn't even offer that clue).
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Advanced_wireless_settings#Beacon_Interval
I ended up increasing the beacon interval from 100ms to 500ms under Wireless > Advanced Settings.
The wifi analyzer app on android seems to keep dropping the SSID when the beacon interval is set that high, so I might have to adjust it to find a good balance.
However, while it was set to 500ms, none of the access points went down for two days.
[edit]: I reduced the beacon interval incrementally down to 300ms. It started locking up at 250ms.

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.

Nokia N95 8gb latest firmware update 21/02/13

Hi, I have had a problem whilst updating my N95 8gb and now it appears, I think, that the firmware version I have is an older one than I had previously, but there isn't anything newer showing as availaable. I have 35,0.001. I am sure that the last time I had a problem, after it was "flashed", the firmware I had installed by the shop was this and then when I got home and went to restore my files, there was a new update available on line. The rreason I say this is that the icons and colours etc are like the version installed by the shop, about 1 year ago and when I updated the software everything was different. If what I am saying is correct, does anyone know if this newer firmware update has now been withdrawn or can anyone throw any light on the subject as I am a little confused! Thanks

If your N95 8GB is RM-320 the last available firmware for all product codes is v35.0.001. Using restore via Nokia Suite can only reset your individual personalisation settings.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0
