ISight Firmware update error 9:233

Has anyone had this problem? Trying to update iSight firmware on a 22" cinema display attached to a Mac Pro. Consistently comes up with error 9:233. Any help appreciated.

Hi guys!
Just returned from a quick client visit. I did a PRAM Reset first. Then followed your directions to get a log of iChat starting up (see below). Sure enough, it does not see a camera. The display is connected via its multi cable cord, whose USB cable is then connected to the back of the Mac Pro. The wired keyboard is connected to the USB port at the back of the monitor. Mouse is wireless. I neglected to check for the firewire cable - presumably the iSight is FW like the stand-alone iSights? I guess if the camera is FW and not USB 2.0 and if the client did not plug in the FW cable, that's the problem. (They are not concerned about the iSight and so I didn't dwell on that problem.) However, I did verify (by feel) that the other cables emerging from the multi-cable cord were plugged in.
This is not a high priority, and I'll take another look when I am next there (in Feb). Thanks again for your help - both of you!

IPod problem - firmware update error. Disk write error.

I need your help! Ime just bought a new iPod 60 GB photo (with color display) but when I connected it for the first time to my PC (with Windows XP Home Edition SP 2) using USB 2.0 I got the message: iPod not readable. This iPod needs to be reformatted for use on your PC. Of course I decided to do that. The system had launched iPod updater. It asked me if I wanted to update or restore iPods software however the operation update was inactive (grey). So I choosed restore. Then a new window appeared: Firmware update error. Disk write error. On the iPods display a normal menu was replaced by exclamation mark. I tried to reset iPod, updated iTunes and iPods updater to the newest version and nothing. It still doesnt work. A folder with ! mark comes up. I try to restore once again and it says: Firmware update error. Disk write error.
Please help! What should I do to solve my problem? I want to add that my iPod is properly recognized by the computer system.
Unfortunately, its rather impossible to give back my iPod to the store. It was bought in the U.S.A. and I live in Poland.

b Firmware Update Failure Possible Solution
-- Disconnect the iPod
-- Right click on "My Computer"
-- Select "Manage"
-- Select "Device Manager"
-- Expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers"
-- Right click on "Enhanced PCI to USB Host controller"
-- Click on "Disable"
-- Click "OK" to accept changes
Run the Updater software (Start==>Run==>iPod) and wait till it says to "Plug in an iPod to update it"
Plug in the iPod and wait (for a long while). It takes awhile because you are now running at USB 1.1 speeds. When it finally shows up, do the "update" or "restore", which ever you were trying to do.
You can try to re-enable the "Enhanced PCI TO USB Host controller" after you are done running the Updater software and try to copy your songs and pictures to the iPod. This may or may not work. If not, revert back to USB1.1.

NSS6000 "Firmware Update Error: The firmware image file is corrupt."

Hello All,
I've recently run into a problem trying to update the firmware on our NSS6000 to either 1.20.1 or 1.21.0. We are currently running 1.16-3.
Each time after I click "Upgrade Firmware", the upgrade fails with the same error: "Firmware Update Error: The firmware image file is corrupt. Obtain another copy of the file and try the firmware upgrade again".
I've tried re-downloading the NSS6000_FW_1.20.1.tar.gz and NSS6000_FW_1.21.0.tar.gz several times from multiple PCs, and using multiple browsers. I've tried several combinations of Windows Server 2003R2, Windows Server 2008R2, Windows 7, and Firefox, Chrome, and IE 8/9.
The downloads all appear to be fine, and they all can open/extract with 7-zip without issue. The file sizes are always the same.
No combination of OS/Browser yields a different result on the upgrade attempt either.
I tried renaming NSS6000_FW_1.21.0.tar.gz to NSS6000_fwupgrade_0121.tar.gz to match the convention used in early versions (thinking that the extra "."'s could be the issue) but no luck either.
I was able to successfully re-apply the NSS6000_fwupgrade_0116.tar.gz firmware without any issues at all.
A strange thing I noticed, though, was on the "The system will reboot now. Please close your browser." window, it shows the device as an "NSS2000 2-Bay Gigabit Network Storage System" (please see attached screenshot). I'm chalking that up to a simple reusing-the-same-web-code issue rather than the root of the problem, but thought I should mention that as well.
Has anyone else run into this issue, or have any suggestions for workarounds in order to successfully upgrade the FW on this device? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi,
Not sure what is going on i haven't see the issue you are having, can you try downloading both images at a different location; instead of behind your router. Also upgrade to .20 and then .21. Im pasting the release notes upgrades step.
When upgrading the firmware from v1.12 to v1.14, v1.12 to v1.20.1, or v1.12 to
v1.21.0 the Configuration GUI displays a "Programming images.." message
for more than 12 minutes (the time it takes to upgrade the firmware is
usually 5 to 10 minutes).
The workaround is to wait at least 15 minutes to complete the upgrade and
then power cycle the NSS by removing the power cord. Do not try and
access the Configuration GUI during this time. (CSCsx17923) When upgrading the firmware from v1.12 to v1.14, v1.12 to v1.20.1, or v1.12 to

Getting firmware update error. disk write error message

i installed the lastest ipod shuffle update and when I try to restore ipod shuffle I get the error message "firmware update error. disk write error" have no idea what to do. ipod does not show up in itunes

ok, someone else with similiar problem, I just opened the box 5 days ago, installed iTunes (the June 2005 version) that came on CD with it, ran iTunes, downloaded some music, plugged in Shuffle, goto download, fails, no device found, can see it under XP ok, goto apple.com to find support FAQ, I then ran up Ipod Updater, thinking that since it was new, firmware must be recent (little did I know ) so I thought do the Restore straight off, it started, then failed with the "disk write error" and havent been able to talk with iPod Updater since, then tried installing iPodUpdater to another PC, no luck, then downloaded later versions of iTunes and uPdater, installed on a 3rd PC, same deal, unable to communicate to Shuffle, rang phone support, spoken to two different support people, finally they agree its faulty (something I figured out 4 days ago) and suggest I return it to Apple for replacement, and fill out a Service Request form, which opened a can of new worms, like there is no "Warranty Replacement" option, lots of questions like Credit Card details and nowhere to actually define that I have a "faulty" or "dead" or Shuffle to return and they obviously did not read the comments, that were requested, as they simply sent docking station in the mail, so now back to square one, trying to lodge a Service Request to "replace" a brand new, dead shuffle. Not having a nice iPod experience here !!, but Itunes is good, although expecting it will take a couple weeks all up before I get a working Shuffle to actually download to. Tried again phone support, to sort out this mess, waited in queue, then line goes dead. Oh Well ... I blame my daughter for this heartache, she insisted on having an iPod.

Nazeer

@lalit_205
If you have a valid warranty you could go to a Lenovo service center to update the phone or flash/install (at own risk) the latest S062 update.
If you decide to flash the latest firmware->
Download and unpack the latest S062 firmware and follow the installation instructions from Message 2(refers to a different model but the driver and flashing procedure is similar.The S660 battery is removable....You do need to remove the battery to install the vcom/sp driver.Also the firmware installation is done with the battery removed in the S660 case).
I suggest to select ''Firmware Upgrade'' instead of ''Download Only''(DO NOT SELECT ''Format All + Download).
Alternative instructions link.
Hope this helps.

Error while downloading iphone firmware update (error code -3254)

Hey guys,
I am using the German versions of iTunes and the iPhone. When I connect the iPhone to my machine, iTunes starts up and proceeds to inform me that a new firmware update is available. After the license agreement is confirmed, nothing seems to happen for a few sceonds. Then, an error message pops up which tells me that "an unknown error has occured". The error code is -3254.
I searched Google and these forums for variations of this problem, but couldn't find anything suitable. The error code is not mentioned anywhere.
My iTunes version is 7.6.1.9 (running on Windows XP)
My iPhone has firmware version 1.1.3 (failed while upgrading to version 1.1.4)
I found out that similar errors can be caused by firewall misconfigurations, but the built-in iTunes diagnosis tool didn't report any connection problems (I also temporarily opened all of my router UDP ports, didn't help at all).
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm having the same problem. The download finishes and then it says an unknown error occurred. It says it has something to do with my network connection, but I don't think that's the problem.
Did you find a solution yet?
I tried to reinstall iTunes but it didn't work.

Firmware update error in 2 minute old ipod

Having just received a shiny new ipod back from apple service....i plug it in and it says it needs to be restored so i do!!
Now all the restore program says is firm ware update error after a very short time and the ipod shows the folder icon
Im seriously p*ssed off cos this has come straight from apple directly!!!
Is this an ipod problem or has my computer got some form of ipod virus or anti ipod problem???
Help Please I don't want to wait another 2 weeks
Dave

To save Mitch from alot of trouble trying to fix the error.
Go into 'My Computer', Right Click on any blank spot, Hit Properies. Click on the Hardware Tab, click the device Manager button, scroll down to Universial Serial Bus Controllers, click the plus. Do Any of them say 2.0 or Enchanced, if not, the firmware failure might be related to USB 1.1 .
If it does say Enchanced or 2.0 make sure the ipod is plugged into the back.
Firmware Failure Diskwrite Error(maybe a Update in there), is a somewhat of a general error, Can be connection issue related to how its connected, or it could be a problem with the iPods hard drive.
If still not working, time to test it on another PC(Or Mac) If you don't have one, go here:
http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service.html
Type in your Zip Code, It will list the closest Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Providers.

Firmware Update Error/Unable to Format/ HELP PLEASE!

I have happily been using three 3G ipods with Windows XP via firewire for 9 months or so until recently....
1. Installed 250GB external USB HD to house music and lost previous library files in the process.
2. On connecting my 40GB ipod, got request to update and then "Firmware update failure-Disk write error" and the dreaded Exclamation mark folder.
3. Returned ipod to Apple Service and bought new 60GB Colour ipod the day before going abroard for a month. This works OK although seems slow to be recognised by itunes and update.
4. Got home today and plugged in my Son's 20GB 3G and got the same problems as above. Tried formatting as suggested in these pages but get "Unable to complete format" message.
5. Apple due to deliver my repaired/replaced 40GB tomorrow - am I likely to get the same problems, and again if I plug in my Daughter's 20GB. It seems unlikely to get 2 faulty ipods within a month with the same symptoms.
Any ideas anyone? I've reset, attempted updates and formats umpteen times and have itunes 4.9 and the latest updater. New 60GB seems OK. Many thanks, Nick.

After running a permissions repair, I ran a disk verification and found that my disk does indeed need repairing. However, I am not currently near my Install disc to perform a disk repair... I will post the results of my disk verification here and ask if it is possible to repair using the 'fsck' alternative. If not, I will attempt to track down my install disc and attempt to repair from there. Thank you both for your help!

Pantech UML290 firmware update error wmc802

Firmware update check for the Pantech UML290 using VZAM fails. The error is WMC802. Does anyone know what this error means or how to do the firmware update check? Thanks, Paul

SammuelP, I am having the same issue with my Verizon UML290 with the firmware error: WMC802. In the VZAccess Manager program dialog box, under Options, Preferences, Firmware Update, pressing the "Check for Updates" yields the WMC802 error some of the time, with the UML290 card connected or not connected. Were you able to solve this error for the first user in this thread? Thanks.

DesignJet T2300 firmware update error

When trying to update the firmware i get the error message: Firmware update manifest file is wrong. Firmware update has been interrupted. Firmware Version is IG_02_00_15.1 Any suggestions? (just unboxed this plotter today!)

Never mind...updated to latest firmware using a USB thumb drive instead of the network. All is well.

Conflicting information from support pages about firmware update error

I recently opened my Macbook to see a firmware update. I followed the instructions to install it, however when I went to shut down to complete the process, I got an error: +"unexpected error occurred (0); unable to upgrade firmware"+
After several tries, some digging through the support articles yielded this information:
+Firmware updates for Intel-based Macs require a GUID partition scheme+
+Firmware updates will not install on an Intel-based Mac if the computer is using a non-standard partition scheme, such as an fdisk scheme. You may see an "unexpected error occurred (0); unable to upgrade firmware" error message, or your computer may start normally (after a single beep if the power button is held) when attempting to install the firmware update.+
So I followed the instructions to determine which partition scheme I had. It was "applepartitionscheme". I read further to see how to correct this, assuming I should to make sure I had the latest updates on my computer. After seeing that it required backing up data, and potentially my install disc, I decided to put my Service Plan money to work, and have Apple Support walk me through it, as I am still a rather novice Apple customer.
I admit I was frustrated that the man on the phone did not seem to understand that I already had a grasp on my problem, and that I bypassed a lot of the diagnostic steps already. I realize that tech support has to follow some step by step manual when talking to a customer, but sometimes I hate being patronized. (Yes, my monitor is on, yes I am connected to the internet. I am not stupid.) I explained I recently had the hard drive replaced. He walked me through "Repairing Permissions" using my install disc. This did not fix the issue. He explained that the update was probably not needed. It wasn't compatible with my computer, and that the techs who put my new drive in probably installed any updates I needed at Apple Care.
But, am I just really not educated enough in this? Wouldn't my computer say then if it had the most current update? When I check my version it reads : MB....B02, 1.13f3 but when I check under the list of latest update for Macbook it reads, MB...B07, 1.4f12. Is my new hard drive is indeed updated, but my "About This Mac" still thinks it has an older version? Am I going to have this problem with every update?
I find it hard to believe that after reading this highlighted tech support article:
+An Intel-based Mac's hard disk must be formatted with the GUID partition scheme to apply a firmware update. Intel-based Macs are shipped this way from the factory. If you have reformatted your hard drive, you should check which scheme your hard disk is currently using before applying a firmware update.+
that I don't need to fix this incompatibility. Can anyone help with this?

At that point say you are not satisfied and you would like to A: talk to his supervisor
or B: escalate the problem.
Trust what "System Profiler" tells you, not what "Software Update" tells you.
You DO need to resolve this update.
* backup your data
* repartition the HD using GUID
* reinstall MacOS
* install all updates
* restore your data

MuVo "device not connected" firmware update error

When I try to execute the plan given by Pook Kok Choy (below between "=====")
I successfully get MUVO_DRV_LB_00_04_250.exe installed.
When I move to step 2 I have the device attached to the PC but I get the message "device not connected to the USB port".
This happens, with the device connected and on while trying to install:
MUVOAudible_PCFW__40_2_L4.exe
Apparently, I am not alone in having this problem.
Apparently, this happens to others - using XP - specifically when trying to do this firmware upgrade in order to play purchased WMA, DRM protected music.
The PC recognizes the MuVo 28.
It assigns it a dri've letter when it is plugged in.
The install procedure for the *Audible* firmware does not see it.
Please help.
Tbanks,

JLRtist,
After you have installed the latest downloaded driver, did you run the player into recovery mode? Try this,press and hold the PLAY button, continue holding the button while inserting the player into the USB port for about 0-5 sec. Run the firmware update file.

IMac Firmware update - ERROR

Hello all,
I'm trying to update the firmware on my Core Duo 2Ghz iMac but it dosen't work. I follow the instructions, holding the power button until the power light starts flashing, I hear the long beep, and immediately after that the startup chime. After a few seconds it goes to the gray screen, apple logo and it boot's normally. No progress indicator, no firmware update. Any suggestions?
Thank you!
iMac 2Ghz, 2GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Did either of you try to install the onmac XP dual
booting solution? If so, you have to completely
reformat your drive. If you plan on trying the
bootcamp solution, when you partition it, make only 1
partition, otherwise bootcamp will not work.
Glor
Fortunately that is simply not true Glor... I put the onmac.net XP dual boot solution on my iMac and I got around it by booting to a Firewire Hardrive that had 10.4.6 and applying the firmware update from there.
If you have partitioned your hard drive this firmware might fail .. while it does not say so from my experience with other Apple firmware updaters it usually writes a firmware file to the HD and then when the computer is booted holding down the "programmers" button as they used to call it - the open firmware would look on the first partition of the first hard drive ( the default place for the OS) and read the firmware file from there.
In the case of having re-partitioned your drive - such as installing the XP solution - or other reasons this firmware would fail...
Again there are other ways than erasing your computer to fix this though such as the firewire boot device I described above.
good luck.

5800xm-FIRMWARE UPDATE-error!!!!

Hey ppl i've got a new 5800xm and one of my buddies also has the same. But he has a firmware v11.00 etc etc..
Whereas im havin the v10.00firmware....When i used the nokia soft. updater to check for the updates, It indicated that there was no firmware updates---"Please note that your mobile operatoror carrier may not have approved the latest nokia device firmware available"how can i update it????? Is ther any alternative for the firmware update?????...

If you got your phone from your operator, or it was part of a phone+SIM package, then there is a good chance that your phone has the operator's customised version of the phone software rather than the standard Nokia software. If this is the case, the operator reserves the right to approve software before Nokia is able to release it.
