I receive a software update for Thunderbolt firmware update 1.2 daily

I'm receiving a Software Update daily. It is the same one. Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2. I've updated the MacAir while plugged in and continue to get it.

I don't love it, but I don't dislike it either.  Between the two, at least initially, I think I prefer the previous interface.
I know that will be the case for me.

The new one is a little more Apple-like with icons instead of lists, but I liked having everything right on the screen before and now I have to scroll down to get to the icons below the tv screen view.
The old interface wasn't perfect but logical - as you say the icons are for the iPhone and iPad crowd, and as i see it will entail more scrolling and button hopping on the remote.

I do like the icon look as it is more like the iPad, iPhone, Dashboard, etc.
Quelle surprise......
It's a bit like the redesign of these discussion fora - the new layouts are designed for the younger generation but far too much scrolling and hard work to find what you want compared to the old format.
I HATE SCROLLINGTO FIND THINGS
Sorry, rant over.

  • App store shows an update for Thunderbolt Firmware.

    I don't run any Thunderbolt Firmware.  Do I have to download this update?  How do I ignore it?

    What is Thunderbolt?

  • Stuck on Thunderbolt Firmware-Update 1.2

    App Store is permanently showing that there is a new update.
    Thunderbolt Firmware-Update 1.2
    When i click on update, it asks to restart the computer, i confirm.
    After that it says installing software update 2 mins, then it restarts the computer.
    After restart it shows a light grey screen, apple logo in the middle and a filling status bar on bottom.
    When the statusbar is full, the MacOS is loaded and all work.
    After a while the AppStore shows a new indicator and tells me there are new updates ..
    Checking which ones shows it's the **** Thunderbolt again.
    Its a brand new Mac, so whats the right way to get this fixed without losing a lot of time, money, the data on disk or the waranty?
    Would have written a mail to support, but only found an option to call them during hours I'm at work.

    The grey screen with statusbar shows for around 10-15 mins each time.

  • Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 / Thunderbolt: No hardware was found.

    We purchased a 2012 27" iMac at work which I connected to a 23" cinema display via a MDP->DVI adapter. It worked for a while, but then stopped working 1 day. Thinking it was the monitor or the adapter, I connected a 27" cinema display with a direct MDP connection - still didn't work.
    After doing the typical SMC/PRAM reset, I noticed that in System Information under thunderbolt it said "Thunderbolt:          No hardware was found." I also noticed that the App Store listed a Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2. So, I updated that, restarted, it flashed the progress bar for a second but didn't move before restarting again and booting. The firmware update was still listed in the app store.  I tried downloading the DMG for the update on the Apple Download site, install seemed to go well, but did not install.
    Then I found this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4579. I ran through that process (also reset SMC/PRAM again). Still no go. After calling Apple support, they recommended that I reinstall OS X. Still didn't work after that. I called back today, and apparently my only option is to carry it to the closest Apple Store, which is an hour and a half away (we have a closer authorized dealer, but they are closed until July 8th for some reason). I also asked if they could send a box so I could ship it and they said that wasn't an option.
    Is there anything else I can do without having to wait until July 8? I am extremely disappointed with Apple right now, and I'm hoping I can get this resolved without having to run all over the place.

    It sounds to me that you've gone through all the possibilities as regards software and that your iMac has a hardware issue. If so, then taking it to an Apple Store or authorized Apple service provider is going to be necessary.  Apple typically does not provide ship-in service when they have authorized service in your area. You'll either have to wait for the service center to re-open on the 8th or drive to the Apple Store.
    Regards.

  • Thunderbolt firmware update 1.2 won't install

    I can't find a way to get Thunderbolt firmware update 1.2 installed. I need this update because my external display won't work without it. Machine is late 2011 13" Macbook Pro running OS X 10.9.5. Other updates install without problems, only this update is keeping coming back. Installation seems to go fine, however it doesn't actually install it and update re-appears to App store.
    Stuff I've tried already
    Install update on AC & fully charged battery
    Download & install update manually from Apple website
    Install update with & without thunderbolt connected
    ...with these combinations, App store update log shows 8 installs for that update (and it's still not actually installed)
    Anyone had similar problems? Any ideas how to get it installed?

    Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.

  • Thunderbolt firmware update 1.2 continues to fail on MBP

    For months I have been repeatedly asked via software update to run the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2. The update gray screen shows up, but before the status bar can complete, the computer restarts. Other users have gotten relief with unplugging their usb and thunderbolt devices but I have no such devices attached to my computer. Anyone else?

    Hello there terrie_808,
    If the update still seems to not be taking for your Thunderbolt Display, I would like to recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2: Keeps reappearing and Thunderbolt ports and Target Display Mode may not work
    After installing Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2:
    Thunderbolt ports may not work.
    Target Display Mode may no longer work.
    The update may keep reappearing as available for download. 
    This occurs when a self-powered Thunderbolt device (other than a directly-connected Thunderbolt display) is connected to a Thunderbolt port while installing the update.
    To resolve this issue:
    Shutdown your computer.
    Disconnect all Thunderbolt devices.
    Wait 10 seconds.
    If you are using a Mac mini with a Thunderbolt display, reconnect the Thunderbolt display directly to your computer via the Thunderbolt port. Do not connect other Thunderbolt devices at this time.
    Restart your computer.
    If the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 is offered, download and install it and restart your computer when asked. If the Thunderbolt Update is not offered, the update has installed correctly.
    Reconnect all Thunderbolt devices.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • 27 inch thunderbolt display blacks out after Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2

    Bought 2 new 27 inch TB displays for two different machines and after a couple of days the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 appears on my Mac Pro with one of the displays installed. So I install the firmware update.  Now my display blacks out periodically and I keep getting Graphic Display Errors with a request to sent the errors to Apple. Running a 32 GB Mac Pro (late 2013 circular style) I have three monitors connected (two 20 inch cinema displays and the new 27 inch display). This machine is supposed to be able to handle three 4k monitors or 6 standard TB displays.  I've seen the posts about the blacking out with this monitor but I didn't have any problems before the firmware update and now I've got them pretty regularly.  I had the blacking out problem on an earlier monitor and took one of the monitors back and Apple gave me another one and this is the replacement.  Same problem, but this one only started after the update. I'm hoping someone from Apple reads these messages and can let me know what's up.
    BTW, I also have an older 27 inch Apple monitor that ran perfectly on this machine so I'm disappointed that I spent all this money and now get the blacking out issue.
    Mac Pro (Late 2013)
    Processor 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5
    Memory 32 BG
    Graphics AMD FirePro D300 2048 MB

    I have my Thunderbolt display connected to my MacBook Pro and have been experiencing the same issue, getting worse over time.  The folks at my local Apple store did not know what to do about it.  So, I looked around and tried different thing.
    The one thing that seems to be working is to System Preferences > Build-in Display > uncheck “Automatically adjust brightness.”
    I hope this helps.

  • Computer keeps shutting down when trying to update Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2! But says I have installed it 4 times already.

    Hello All,
    Today I updated my MacBook Pro Early 2011 from Lion to Mavericks. I then went onto my App Store and it says I have an update that I need to install. This update is the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2. Everytime I press update, it says that it is downloading, but suddenly my computer just turns off with no warning when the download hasnt even started. I'm worried that this will damage my computer! What I don't understand is that App Store says that I have already installed this update 4 times. But if so, why is it still saying that I need to update it?
    Any help will be most appreciated!
    Celine

    Unfortunately after that I have no other suggestions... if it was my computer I would reformat the entire computer but you need a good backup to do that something is obviously corrupt and not acting right otherwise if you have another computer that you can use to update..

  • I just recently installed mountain lion and an update for SMC firmware to install power nap. Everything is working except for the menu bar, the icons native to the system do not respond, and features like the clock and battery meter freeze.

    I just recently installed mountain lion and an update for SMC firmware to install power nap. Everything is working except for the menu bar, the icons native to the system do not respond, and features like the clock and battery meter freeze.
    When I mouse over the icons, the rainbow appears as if it was processing something. The problem is eliminated when I restart my computer but it comes back after a while.
    I guess I cant make a backup copy and restore the whole disk because the copy would be made with this error.
    Can anyone help me? Anyone with the same issue?

    Update: I was able to test out the HDMI adapter as well and the same issue occured.  I'm stumped.  10.8.1 maybe.

  • Formating flash drive for tv firmware update

    How do I format an 8GB flashdrive to FAT/FAT16 format on my MacBook, so that I can use it for a firmware update on my TV?

    "FAT" means FAT32, which is MSDOS in Apple Disk Utility
    You need a MBR partition map too, so make sure to use the Partition tab and click the big box, options> MBR format MSDOS and click Apply.
    You can use all 8GB, but the file size is limited to 4GB sized files.
    Traditionally USB's come from the store already formatted FAT32 with a MBR, you shouldn't really need to do anything unless you changed it.
    You may need to use a PC to erase the USB and install the TV firmware update, because Apple places a lot of extra crap on drives, ds store files, hidden trash etc that may be interfering with the firmware update.
    And another thing, I think Microsoft stopped the autorun ability that one could hook up a flash drive to a pc and it would just start a program, so if the firmware depends upon that you'll need to find a alternate method.
    Use a PC, format the USB again, call the the TV maker or consult thier web page.
