New Firmware Upgrade Not Needed

I tried to download and install the firmware upgrade posted today (v1.4), which is supposed to take my BootROM to MBP31.0070.B03 (it is currently identified as MBP31.0070.B02 in System Profiler). However, when I run the updater, it tells me I don't need the update.
Any thoughts?

The santa rosa chipsets (2.2s and 2.4s) may not need the firmware ?upgrade. If my 2.4 had needed the upgrade, it would have shown up in Software Update, and it did not.
I don't mind this at all. Firmware upgrades could be problematic and I love to avoid them where possible. All of the iLife and iWork upgrades came up on software update for me and installed and are working fine.

Officejet Pro 8600 N911g new firmware will not install.

My printer: Officejet Pro 8600 N911g
Current Firmware: CLP1CN1416AR
My problem: Downloaded the latest firmware update (Version CLP1CN1322CR). When I go to install it, my printer shows as listed, but in the STATUS cloumn, it is listed as "Not applicable".
I turned my printer on/off.
I tried updating via network, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
I tried updating via USB.
I tried updating via the LCD panel on the printer, and when it checks for an update, it states there are no updates avaiable.
Is there something wrong as to why this current firmware will not install?
Thanks for any help.

New Firmware (CLP1CN1416R) was installed automatically (Printer was set for "Auto Update"). Prior to new firmware install, printer has performed flawlessly...no problems. Immediately after printer updated it's firmware automatically I began to have multiple problems.
First, it kept asking me to perform an "Alignment" which I dutifully performed only to have message come back that 'Alignment Failed". Printed sheet looked fine, and printer printed fine but now before any page will print the "Alignment Recommended" message comes up which I have to then override (Click 'Do Not Align' button at bottome of 'Alignment Recommended' message box. This is getting really OLD!! Simply unacceptable for a business class printer!!
Also, the printer randomly has started giving other messages such as "There is a problem with the printer or ink system" AND "Cartridges are Missing" ("when I've just recently put in new catridges and levels are OK!!) AND "Paper Jam" (when there is no jam!!)
None of these problems have occurred prior to the automatic firmware update. I believe the reason HP hasn't posted the new firmware update to their Customer Service website is that they know there are bugs in it and don't want to compound the problems the new version has already created. I seriously question why an automatic updating of firmware was done with equipment set to "Auto Update" and yet that same new firmware is not available to those who might have had their printers set for "Manual Update".
HP Customer Service - You need to issue a statement from the company as to what has happened with this firmware update. If there are problems, take responsibility for it and make it right. HP knows who it sent out auto updates to. These printer owners should be immediately notified and the situation made right. It is not real assuring to have your front line staff not know why the new firmware is not on the website. I do not like the idea of having to pay for a Support Call when the problems with my out of warranty printer are directly tied to the Auto Updating of said printer with apparently defective firmware.
I'd really appreciate a response back from someone in HP Customer Service.

Why can't I send my files. Asking me to upgrade, but upgrading not needed. Even if i do try to upgrade it won't advance. What's up??? Is your system down???

Hi anthony yerger,
Please let me know what Acrobat and OS version are you using.
How are you trying to send your PDF files?
If possible, please share the screenshot of the error message so that I can analyze it at my end.

PETITION: This is what I would like to see in a new firmware upgrade for the MTP ZEN TO

FIXES:
-Ensures correct playback on the player of Zencast audio content that has been transferred using Zencast organiser. Remaining time is displayed correctly, and rewind / fast-forward functions can be used
- Allows users to transfer tracks between folders on the player when using a program such as Creative Mediasource [THIS IS NEEDED FOR ALL MTP PLAYERS]
- Allows charging via USB when the player is not being used by a program or is low on battery [THIS FEATURE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY MTP UPGRADE]
ENHANCEMENTS / ADDITIONAL FEAUTRES [I HAVE LISTED THESE BY MY PERSONAL ORDER OF PREFERENCE]:
) Allows the playback of Audible content types ,2,3,4 on the player, via a plug-in in Audible Manager
2) Adds bookmarking feature to the player
3) Adds SmartVolume EQ feature to the player
4) Adds DJ menu to the player
5) Allows user to partition a section of the player for data transfer
6) Allows user to synchronise tasks from Outlook to the player

Late 2009 Mac Mini EFI 2.1 Firmware update not needed/already factory installed?

Here has been my issue of trying to figure out if Mac Mini can handle (and fully use) 8GB of RAM with my current EFI version.
I want to upgrade to 8GB on a LATE 2009 Mac Mini that currently has Boot ROM MM31.00AD.B00 and was told to update with EFI Firmware update 2.1 but it does not install saying "This update is not needed on this machine".
I found various contradicting posts saying that I need my Boot ROM to be MM31.0081.B06 or my machine won't utilize the 8GB fully
and will slow down in performance and/or crash after the Apple recommended 4GB.
But here's what I found interesting. Some users have mentioned that the Late 2009 Mac Mini's shipped with updated firmware and don't need this update but could not find a concrete answer as to yes it did ship with it or not.
Apple doesn't even list a Late 2009 Mac Mini as needing a Firmware update in this list of Firmware updates: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237 . Should I just assume that my machine shipped with said update and is capeable of the 8GB? I use this for Logic Pro 9 as a somewhat portable workstation that I can take with me so maxing out the RAM would be ideal for me.
Any help or clarification would be greatly apprishiated,
Nelson

Actually a Late 2009 can take 8GB of RAM and only the Early 2009 needs the EFI update.

Graphics firmware upgrade not working

Hi, I have a 24" iMac 2008 it requires a graphics card upgrade for installing windows 7 i have 10.7 lion running, but it says on checkingavailable disks that it cannot be installed on this disk as it needs 10.6 any ideas the update says 10.6 or later

I see where you are making an error, the advice letter you pointed to refers to:
Download and install the Graphics Firmware Update 1.0 if you run Microsoft Windows 7 using Boot Camp on your iMac (with NVIDIA GeForce 7300 or 7600 GT) or Mac Pro (with NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT or Quadro FX 4500) computer.
The early 2008 iMac uses the ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB of GDDR3 memory per
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP485
Therefore your system does NOT need the graphics update you're attempting to download.

WRT350N firmware upgrade not working

Hi, I've just been given an unused WRT350N router.
I've had a few problems getting it setup on my MAC (OSX 10.5.6), but it transpired they were problems using Firefox which were resolved when I started using Safari. However, I still have one outstanding problem with upgrading the firmware....
I want to upgrade the firmware from the original 2.0.10 to the latest available of 2.0.19. I have downloaded this from the Support page, which gives me a readme text file and a .IMG file which i presume is the firmware file (all instructions I have found imply it should be a .BIN file)
I have connected my router to the MAC using a wired connection and followed the firmware upgrade instructions (selecting the .IMG file), followed the rest steps (including using the hardware reset button, and the software factory defaults option), but when the router comes back up it still says its at firmware 2.0.10.
I get no error messages, and have noticed that at the end of the upgrade it does NOT display the "Upgrade is sucessful, rebooting.." message.
I have been through this several times with same results. Any ideas please ?
Thank in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have this same problem now with firmware for WAG54GS   the zip file produces a .IMG file after running winzip
This file is not acceptable to the firmware upgrade as a .BIN file.
The firmware is expecting a .bin format.   It does not like this .IMG file.
The documentation all refers to .bin.
Just renaming the file as .bin causes the linksys to abandon the upload.
I am on a Windows XP.       .BIN is UNIX/LINUX terminology.    Do I have to do the firmware upgrade on Linux?
Tried to get some software to checkout the   .img file but nothing likes it.
WAG54GSv1-E1-AnnexB-ETSI-ML-1.01.05-code.img is what my winzip gets.
What am I supposed do with this file to get it into the right shape for the     WAG54GS?
It wants   .bin file    not this?

IMac w/firmware upgrade not connecting thru chooser

Grade school iMacs (crt style) connect to library search software by selecting an alias on the local iMac that is for the program on the shared volume on the library Mac. This share is Read Only to everyone.
Any iMac running OS 9.x that does not have the firmware upgrade for OS X is connecting fine as they always have. Click the alias, brings up the chooser to do the STUDENT logon to the library share and begins the execution of the software on the local mac.
Some used iMacs that were added to the library have had their firmware upgraded for OS X. When these select the same alias - they get an error saying they do not have execution rights to the alias. But, if you manually go to the Chooser and log on to the libary share - then execute the actual program file - it works just fine.
So it appears that the firmware update has glitched the machine's ability to log on to the library share and execute the search program via the alias.
iMac iLamps (flat screen with round base)seem to work fine. Switch to OS9 via Classic, go through the Chooser and run the library search software. So seems our problem child(ren) is/are the CRT iMacs with the firmware upgrade.
Ideas? Anyone else run into this?
Thanks,

You didn't indicate how long the iMac was running without problems, before you decided to upgrade the memory. It's possible that the display's degraded picture quality is not directly related to the memory installation, since that procedure is relatively non-invasive on a slot-loading iMac. The board could have had a problem that would manifest itself after a sufficient period of ON time, that went unnoticed, prior to its sale on eBay. Sellers often buy pallets of computers in unknown working condition, that are stacked on top of each other and wrapped with plastic. Because the cases often have cosmetic damage, they're parted out. If the computer powers up and everything appears to be working fine, it's shut down and disassembled. If the unit were left ON long enough, perhaps any problems that it had (prior to being pulled from service) would eventually surface. I'd suggest trying the other board that you bought.

New blade = new firmware upgrade?

Hello,
I'd like to know whether a new blade server purchase means forcibly an upgrade of the existing UCS infrastructure to the newest UCS Manager release?
Thanks a lot,

CIMC's can by updated without interupting blades. I preffer updating CIMC's first, and have mixed 2.0 and 1.4 Bios and Mez card without any trouble a few times. Best to control CIMC, Bios, and Mez card code level with Firmware policies.
The 2.0 code has new OS drivers so be sure and check that out. Have mixed 2.0 and 1.4 a few times both ways and never made a difference. Due to a lazy SCCM admin ran 2.0 OS drivers on 1.4 blade firmware for a few months. Didn't make a difference. This is all with Windows 2008R2.
Over time have found that this is the best order for updating code levels on Cisco UCS. This way the UCSM keeps communication between itself down to the CIMC through the update process. Note that the IOM’s wait until their FI reboots to reboot and update code level.
This is considered the “Bottom Up” method. Some prefer the “Top Down” method but I have found it much less smooth and harder to recover from if something goes wrong.
Always backup configuration before upgrading code levels.
Should go
1)      CIMC
2)      IOM (which will wait until the FI’s update)
3)      UCSM
4)      FI X (Which ever is the current passive FI)
5)      FI X (Second FI)

Zen Touch: Firmware upgraded, Zen unavaila

Hello,
I was done the firmware upgrade to 2..0 on my Zen Touch. Everything gone well. The player seems to work fine.
The new firmware should not need driver (PlayForSure tech.)
I removed the old software and drivers from pc, and reboot.
Now if I connect the ZenTouch to PC, It went recognized by "system configuration" but don't appears in Explorer or MediaPlayer0.
I have try also to use RegClean to clean registry. I have try to reinstall original driver disk but the Zen is not recognized by old software/driver.
I have try to connect the Zen to another computer, Everythings OK.
How I can recover my PC? I don't have any Recovery Point in my pc.
I believe that something happen to MTP driver, or some System Services.
Does Creative have some "diagnostic tool" ? or MTP driver istallation?
Please Help.
Joefalk
(greeting from Italy)
P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

There's some advice for the Micro, most of which is also relevant for the Touch, see the link "problems with connecting using MTP firmware" in the FAQ post.

Can't upgrade to a newer firmware.

Hi everyone.
I noticed that there's a new firmware upgrade for the N95-1 RM-159 (31.0.0.14) but when i load the nokia software updater, it tells me that my firmware is the latest firmware upgrade (30.0.0.15). why is that ? How can i fix that ?

V31 was pulled from NSU a couple of days after it was released. So, the latest version available to anyone is indeed V30.
