New XFi-2 firmware (1.20.08); install?

The only enhancement listed for the new .20.08 firmware is to support a new 64gb model.
As I don't have the new model is there any good reason to accept the update?
My unit is working well as is, and I don't want to risk disruption if there is no benefit.
Has anybody installed it's How did it go? Did you notice any improvement?
I see? [url="http://forums.creative.com/t5/MP3-Players/XFi-2-Latest-firmware--20-08-has-caused-some-issues-on-32GB/td-p/554470" rel="nofollow">one thread [/url]iindicating possible trouble.

I thought the European firmware doen't have volume restriction. Maybe that's the difference?
Also, firmware .20.08 only adds support for 64GB players. So there's no need to upgrade if you have .2.08 installed on a 8 or 6 or 32GB player.

You can simply update your iphone or you can restore your iphone as new, or you can erase all content and settings.
iPhone User Guide (For iOS 5.1 Software)

Can't install new 2.1 firmware

Here are the steps that lead up to my problem.
- I synced my iphone 2G with itunes 7.7
- updated to itunes 8 (and rebooted macbook as instructed)
- repeated the iphone sync
- rss news of 2.1 firmware availability arrives
- begin another iphone sync
- I click on UPDATE button
- 2.1 firmware downloads but extraction fails with error (-19)
- sync aborts because iphone dropped out of sync mode ("Sync in Progress" goes away on phone)
- unmount & unplug iphone from usb
- reconnect iphone to usb
- itunes alert that new firmware (2.1) available
- I select to install the new update
- iphone never goes into sync mode (no "Sync in Progress" on phone)
- the backup prior to 2.1 install fails with -19 error
However, if I choose NOT to install the new 2.1 firmware, the iphone immediately goes into sync mode and a successful sync completes. I'd like to install the 2.1 update but that means the iphone won't go into sync mode and the update subsequently aborts because of it.
Any ideas?

Problem solved. Here's what I did.
- Completed a successful sync with 2.02 firmware / itunes 8 (slow!)
- Kept the iphone plugged in (i.e. did not unmount it)
- Clicked UPDATE in itunes
- Upgrade to 2.1 proceeded just fine this time!
So, once I completed a sync then the trick (for me) was to not unplug the iphone and then re-plug it in again for another sync/update attempt. It seems that clicking on the INSTALL button (itunes new software alert dialog) while itunes wants to just do a sync caused the problem. Why, I don't know. Saying no to the update, allowing the sync to complete (took ~1 hour) and then clicking on UPDATE does the trick for me.
2.1 is working fine for me now and syncs do happen much faster.

Mac Pro EFI Firmware 1.5 NOT installing (Yes, I RTFM)

Starting a new topic as the other one was marked 'SOLVED'.
MacPro5,1 2.8 Quad.
Firmware 1.5 does install before shutdown, but the progress bar doesn't appear when holding the power button. After the loud firmware beep, the chime follows immediately and the machine boots up. Software Update keeps prompting to do the update again.
Have been on the phone with Applecare for over an hour, who have no idea why this thing doesn't work...
Troubleshooting done so far:
-Zapped PRAM, Reset SMC
-Downloaded standalone installer instead of Software Update
-Freshly installed 10.6.4 on FW800 disk and tried installing from that install
-Disconnected all peripherals including 27" LED Cinema Display
-Downloaded standalone installer on another network
There is no progress bar appearing and the bootrom stays on version MP51.007F.B01.
Strange: in the Utilities folder there is a Mac Pro EFI Firmware updater app that displays a "file may be incomplete or damaged" error when trying to start it.
Applecare had no idea, second line support puzzled as well...
Any ideas ?

When you click OK for install, it'll do the little updater window, tell you it's optimizing, then shut down your computer.
You're in front of a shut-down MP 2010. You need to click *AND HOLD* the power button for a few seconds. It'll flash a few times, make a different tone and then you'll see the updater bar.
You cannot just power it up, you must click and hold until the little white power indicator light flashes.
Welcome to MP51.007F.B03
p.s., Why it drops the file Mac Pro EFI Firmware.app which is "damaged" etc, into /Apps/Util/ I dunno. It does that for me too, but firmware is updated. You should be able to hit Software Update now and not keep seeing the EFI update show up.
If you're clicking AND holding the power button AND see the white light flash multiple times (it takes a few seconds, keep holding down the power button), and it still doesn't work... then I dunno.

Any news in N80 firmware updates?

It seems very quiet lately
Any news on N80 firmware updates?
A version better than v4.0707.0.7
Im getting sick in waiting
The service command bug is really irritating

hi guys , am disappointed too ! lets kill some time imagining what will the new firmware contain lol
i have many suggestions many of it is stuped
1. i wish i can remove the 2 shortcuts (horisantal ) wich is : 1.wireless scanning + 2. calender , if there exisit some option to display/remove display of them
2. if there is a way to remove the themes painlessly
3. i want my special files pics/videos etc not to be displayed in the gallary that contain all multimedia files ( even though what i put in a seperate folder ) if i can check what folders only to be displayed in galary
4. optional autolock with each slide closing
5.simple way to connect the internet using wifi because sometimes am already connected using some wifi connection and when browsing it says ( connection needed ) but am already connected , make it unified
6.when i close some page in the net browsing it close the connection automatically , make this optional not mandatory
i got much much more lol i know it sounds silly , but these aint hard things and dont affect other customer because its all optional lol , and ah !
7. i have 2 GB miniSD so make the sound recorder record more than one minute depending on the memory size
8. optional call ending each slide closing
9. if installed themes/application can be copied/sent via bluetooth or sth ..
thanx lol common guys kill some time with expressin your needs in the new firmware PPPPPMessage Edited by mohsh86 on 13-Jun-200702:40 AM

New Creative ZEN Firmware 1.21.03" firmware does not work

>New Creative ZEN Firmware .2.03" firmware does not work This new "Creative ZEN Firmware .2.03, Filesize : 7.6 MB" firmware does not work.
All I get is : "Please make sure there is only one player connected" (See image below)
I have a CreativeZen 4GB player with Vista 64-Bit Operating system (Main System).
Yes, I have followed the instructions step-by-step, downloaded the new firmware first, then, connected my ZEN player, double-clicked the "ZEN_PCFW_L22__2_03" downloaded file.
Note : No other programs were running in the backround, even turned off installed firewall and anti-virus software. Also, tried this new firmware in a Windows XP (SP2) computer system and a Notebook Vista 32-Bit computer system. Yes! I only have one player connected. Same result (See image below).
I left it sit for one hour and did not move, same result (See image below).
I tried this in safemode (All OS systems), same result (See image below).

Re: New Creative ZEN Firmware .2.03" firmware does not work$ I updated my Zen 32GB using Vista x64 so it can work under some situations. Can't say my upgrade went problem-free but it did work in the end.
You might try some of the following (no promises they will help, but can't really hurt):
Re-download the firmware updater. Maybe you got a bad download.
Make sure your Zen is directly connected to a system USB port (i.e. not to a port on a monitor, keyboard, ext USB hub, etc.)
Try running the firmware update as Administrator if you aren't already
Try uninstalling the Creative drivers before the update.
In my case I got stuck on a message that another application was using my Zen. Turned out the simple act of hooking up the player resulted in Vista running a headless "wmplayer.exe *32" process. I had to manually kill it from TaskManager in order to proceed. Even then the first update attempt ended with the Zen reporting a firmware problem and rebooting into the Recovery Menu. I had to use Reload Firmware to erase what it had and then try again. Second time was the charm.
After all that I can't for the life of me see any changes/improvements in the new firmware. The forum is full of gripes and wishlists yet none of them complain about the radio functionality. I've used it almost every day for year without issue (aside from the rare Zen hang/crash when messing with the headphone jack and/or sliding the power switch). Thank goodness after waiting 0- months since the last update they got around to fixing something nobody noticed was broken. /2?:smileyvery-happy:

Need a little Help with my new xfi titanium

+Need a little Help with my new xfi titanium< A few questions here.
st question? Im using opt out port on the xfi ti. card and using digital li've on a windows 7 64 bit system,? I would like to know why when i use 5. or 7. and i check to make sure each speakear is working the rear speakers wont sound off but the sr and sl will in replace of the rear speakers. I did a test tone on my sony amp and the speaker are wired correctly becasue the rear speakers and the surrond? left and right sound off when they suppose too. Also when i try to click on? the sl and sr in the sound blaster control panel they dont work but if i click on the rear speakers in the control panel the sl and sr sound off. Do anyone know how i can fix this? So i would like to know why my sl and sr act like rears when they are not?
2nd question? How do i control the volume from my keyboard or from windows period when using opt out i was able to do so with my on board? sound max audio using spidf? Now i can only control the audio using the sony receiver.
Thank you for any help..

I'm unsure about the first question. Do you even have a 7. system and receiver? If you just have 5., you should be able to remap the audio in the THX console.
I do have a sony 7. reciever str de-995 its an older one but its only for my cpu. At first i didnt even have THX installed because it didnt come with the driver package for some reason until i downloaded the daniel_k support drivers and installed it. But it doesnt help in anyway.
I have checked every where regarding the first question and alot of people are having problems getting sound out of there rear channels and the sound being re-mapped to the surround right and the surround left as if there rear left and rear right.
I read somewhere that the daniel_k support drivers would fix this but it didnt for me and many others.
For the second question i assumed it would be becasue of the spidf pass through and that my onboard sound card was inferior to the xfi titaniums. But i wasnt sure and i was hopeing that someone would have a solution for that problem because i miss controlling the volume with my keyboard.

Qlogic what firmware version should be installed

I'm having trouble with a couple of new qlogic 5600 switches (the switch wants to assign my clients as target and not initiators). which firmware version should be installed on the switches? i'm having quite a lot of trouble with this upgrade and any input would be greatly appreciated. thanks

thanks for your reply Donald. I did manage to get the FC switch and hba cards working properly. I was aware of the device scan and streamgard settings on the switch, but the feedback i was getting from the switch was worrisome (some targets were listed as initiators on the switch and vicaversa). What solved the problem for me was to load the latest qlogic firmware 7.0.1...(i think), and it started giving the correct devices on each port. The new firmware also allowed me to log on to the switch through a web browser on my mac and not the antiquated "San Surfer" java app that came with the switches. I also had to set my hba to point-to-point and not automatic. I also set my arrays to point to point as well. I have 2 xserve RAIDs and a new promise array all set for "point-to-point". The old emulex switch we were using before was much nicer to work with than the qLogic switches that I just installed, and I found myself longing for the simplicity of the setup on the emulex.
Everything is working great now...I'm getting very fast throughput (250mb/sec).
The only remaining grief is that everytime I quit the admin app and relaunch it, it won't reconnect with my mdc's and i have to delete the xsan admin preference in my admin/library/preferences/ folder to reattach the admin app and administer my san. any ideas?

Has anyone encountered the same issue?

BCA creates the partition as FAT, which the installer needs to format.

Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.

You can also make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Run the cleaner tool and reinstall with sufficient user privileges and security stuff turned off. Your install went wrong because you didn't consider this.

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time?

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.

I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?

Unfortunately, adobe doesn't have photoshop elements 6 available for download, as far as i know, so your best bet is to either get an usb dvd drive or use an computer with a dvd drive and copy the contents of the pse 6 dvd to somethiing like
a flash drive and then copy the contents from that drive to your new computer.
Do you still have your older mac and it has a dvd drive?
You can share files between the two using airdrop or an ethernet cable.
