Problems updating firmware

hi!
I've recently acquired an Airport Express. I tried plugging it in to a network and it's working ok but....
I noticed on Airport utility that it's running version 6 of the firmware and it's recommending upgrading to 6.3. For some reason it won't let me upgrade to 6.3.
I can't alter any settings either. When I request info on the A.E. I get this response:
'Make sure your AirPort wireless device is plugged in and in range of your computer or connected via Ethernet and try again. (-6753)'
Obviously it's connected because I'm writing this now using the network!
I just want to be able to update and make sure it's working fine.
Thanks
Matt

Some more information;
I've manually downloaded the 6.3 updater to the macbook and I've tried installing it.
this is the current repsonse:
'An error occurred while attempting to communicate with the AirPort Express. (-8)'
Does anyone have any help with this?
Thanks muchly!

  • Problem updating firmware WRT54G v5 1.00.1 to 1.02.2

    Hi, I've been having an issue updating the firmware of my WRT54G v5 router to 1.02.2 ... the reason is because one of the previous firmwares solves some Bittorrent issues .. Anyway, I checked the tag and it reads v5 .. and the firmware is currently 1.00.1. I downloaded the right .bin file, I presume, which is 1.02.2.. when I choose 'Update Firmware' and select the .BIN file, I see about 1% of the progress bar light up and it immediately switches to a webpage reading 'The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.' which seems to be a default (Firefox) error. Ofcourse, when I re-enter the web interface, it still reads '1.00.1' as current firmware... any ideas?

    Ow, never mind... I figured it... tried some more last night but I couldn't even save the Configuration (error which resembles the one described above). Made screenshots of the configuration, then did a hard reset.. then immediately tried the firmware update which succeeed flawlessly. I could also make a Configuration backup again!

  • If you're having problems updating firmware and have Windows Media Player 11 B

    I've seen a number of problems with people updating their firmware with WMP installed and it turns out that's the problem. WMP has a bug in it that will not allow the firmware update to recognize the player. So, here's what to do to roll back to a previous version:
    These instructions will only work for Windows XP
    You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group to perform the following procedure.
    . Disconnect any portable music or video devices that might be attached to your computer.
    2. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    3. In the Category View of Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, and then click Remove a program.
    4. Click Windows Media Player , and then click Remove.
    If Windows Media Player is not displayed in the list of currently installed programs, then try the following:
    . At the top of the list, select the Show updates check box.
    2. In the Windows XP - Software Updates section, click Windows Media Player , and then click Change/Remove.
    5. In each of the two confirmation dialog boxes that appear, click OK.
    6. When the rollback process is complete (it might take several minutes), click Restart.
    7. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    8. In the Category View of Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, and then click Remove a program.
    9. Click Windows Media Format Runtime, and then click Remove.
    If Windows Media Format Runtime is not displayed in the list of currently installed programs, then try the following:
    . At the top of the list, select the Show updates check box.
    2. In the Windows XP - Software Updates section, click Windows Media Format Runtime, and then click Change/Remove.
    If you installed a non-US English version of Windows Media Player , the instructions in the dialog boxes that are mentioned in steps 9, 0, and might appear in English.
    0. In the first confirmation dialog box that appears, click OK.
    . In the second confirmation dialog box that appears, select the Do you want to continue with the rollback? check box, and then click OK.
    2. When the rollback process is complete (it might take several minutes to complete), click Restart.
    3. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    4. In the Category View of Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, and then click Remove a program.
    5. Click Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack .0.0, and then click Remove.
    6. Follow the instructions that appear in the Software Update Removal Wizard.
    If the Wudf0000 confirmation dialog box appears, click Yes to continue. When the software removal process is complete (it might take several minutes to complete), click Finish.
    If you are still having problems and all else fails, do a System Restore to before WMP was installed.
    *Note: If you remove Windows Media Player and the Windows Media Format Runtime, and then encounter error C00D27D ("A problem has occurred in the Digital Rights Management component. Contact Microsoft product support, you might be able to resolve the problem by installing the Windows Media Format 9.5 Runtime. For information about installing the Runtime, in the Microsoft Knowledge Base, see article 8922, "Update for Windows Media Digital Rights Management-enabled players."
    **You might not be able to roll back to a previous version of the Player if the hidden folder $NtUninstallwmp$ is deleted from your computer. Some non-Microsoft programs (such as CCleaner) delete this folder in an attempt to remove unwanted files from your computer.
    More information here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...ionofthePlayer
    Some people have found these instructions to be a solution to the "Player Not Connected" Error when trying to update the firmware. (Your mileage may vary)
    Note to Mods: This would make a nice sticky

    OK. I've been having this problem and have probably read every post there is on the net concerning it. But it doesn't seem to be only a Media Player problem. I was only running Media Player 0 when it happened to me. I found the solution somewhere, I can't remember where, but it worked for me and it was easy.
    Here's what you do:
    . Download BOTH ZenXtra_PCFW_LA__20_08.exe and enXtraP4SAudible_PCFW_LB_2_0_03.exe
    2. Connect the Zen Xtra to your PC.
    3. Run ZenXtra_PCFW_LA__20_08.exe. When the window comes up and says that your device is not connected DON'T do ANYTHING! Just leave it there.
    4. Now run ZenXtraP4SAudible_PCFW_LB_2_0_03.exe
    5. It told me that I already had this version on my device did I still want to load it's I said yes and it went through the whole upgrade and now it works fine.

  • Problems updating firmware on X6-00

    Since 2010 I am the owner of a Nokia X6-00.
    At first I didn’t have any problems with updating the system-software (firmware), but now I have a serious problem. How come?
    Recently I had to give my X6-00 a hard reset (could not add a internet access anymore after a hardware repair). The firmware version on my device is now; V30.0.003 from 2010.
    And now I cannot update to the latest version. According to your website for this mobile the latest version of the firmware, is version 40.0.002.
    I have tried to update in 2 different ways;
    -1. -
    Directly through the device. By phone management -> Application Updates -> search for application updates.
    Then I get the message that there are no updates available (and again, in 2011, before my hard reset, I have installed firmware updates severall times). So, this messsage cannot be wright.
    -2. -
    Via Nokia Suite, version 3.7.22.
    My Nokia is connected  to my PC via a USB-cable.
    Then Nokia Suite indicates that the installed system software on my Nokia X6 version is V30.0.003 (from 10-28-2010).
    If I choose to reinstall the system-software, then that process starts up. There are 4 steps within this proces (according to NokiaSuite, eg create backup, etc.).
    However, at the final step-4, I get a message an error occured. I have made a screenshot of this, attached to this mail. This message says that my Nokia X-6-00 is nog connected in the right way to the PC.
    But there are no problems with installing / updating mobile apps via Nokia Suite, so the connection cannot be the problem..
    I would like to update to the latest version of the system firmware. What to do?
    I appreciate your support.

    I agree, Nokia clearly say "Latest software release for Nokia X6-00 is 40.2.002"  but they are not making this widely available for some reason.
    My X6 is unlocked and not tied to any service provider and whenever I try to update the firmware the phone and associated software Nokia Ovi suite/Nokia PC Suite etc etc say V32 is the latest!
    I am tempted to move away from Nokia if this is not resolved soon as I am looking to upgrade and was considering to buy an unlocked Lumia 920 but if Nokia ignore their users with older models then perhaps I should try an IPhone or Samsung next time as I hear their customer service is excellent!

  • WRT54G v5- problem updating firmware

    alright, so I've been battling with my router a little while now. I've had it for a few months now, and randomly at about 11:30 a few nights ago, it just stopped connecting. I get Limited or No Connectivity whether I am trying to connected wirelessly or hardwired into the router. The only way I can access the internet is being hardwired into the cable modem (standard comcast motorola).
    I have tried unplugging the router, doing a hard reset by holding down the cisco button, and restarting all the computers that are having a problem connecting. Nothing. It's still a brick. I think it was actually trying to connect to the wrong IP address, because the properties said nothing about 192.168.1.1
    So, I read that there is a manditory firmware upgrade for the WRT54G v5. I went to the download page for the firmware, but it's trying to download a .bin file, rather than a .zip
    WHAT? Is that a mistake? I can't do anything with it. Are there any mirror sites that anyone knows of with the .zip file so I can upgrade my firmware?

    An update...  I couldn't get the TFTP to work.  However, if you hold the reset button for 30 sec and release, and then open a web browser and go to your ip http://192.168.1.1  It will have a page there for you to browse to your file that you want to upgrade with.  I did this, then held reset button for 30 secs again.  It took a little bit (minute maybe) for the device to fully boot up.  Once it did I could get into the device for configs via http.   You'll know when it's done booting because the orange wireless light will come on and the power light will stop blinking.
    Hope this helps...

  • Problem updating firmware using PC Companion

    I've been notified that my tablet has a new firmware update "17.1.2.A.0.314" which can only be updated via computer.
    But whenever I try to update the firmware using pc companion it is like the program freezes on approxemately one 5th of the progress of the innitialization process.
    I usually have the same problem when i try to update my Z1 compact via PC Companion which is why i usually update through the ´phone/tablet it self, but that is hust not possible this time.
    I have tryed to look through the forum ang found that the update service was the solution, but this service was shot down the 24th of July. http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
    Hope that someone knows how to fix this.

  • Problem updating Firmware?

    Hello guys, i'm using a Nokia C6 00 phone and i've heard about the v40 update so i tried downloading it. I typed with my keyboard *#0000# then it showed me my firmware version. I tapped on Options > Check for Updates. It loaded saying "Connection", then "Searching for updates" Then it said: Invalid Username or Password and A Dialog box opened. Which username and password do i have to put in? I tried my Ovi and Nokia Account but it didn't work. How do i fix this? thanks

    Maybe because it is more difficult to make an update to a Branded Phones. Just check and check your SW until you get it

  • Problems updating firmware to 14.3.A.0.761

    I am trying to update my xperia Z compact to 14.3.A.0.761
    However the Sony PC Companion app fail to update my phone.
    the error is "Sony Update Engine Failure (error 2003)".
    How can I restore my phone and be able to get the latest official updates from Sony?

    @mavaka - Your bootloader will still be unlocked and as such the PC Companion software will not be able to update your phone?

  • PROBLEMS UPDATING FIRMWARE CREATIVE VISIO

  • WAP610N updating firmware problem

    Hello,
    I have a problem updating firmware for an WAP610N access point.
    The thing is i tryed to update from 1.0.01 to 1.0.03 and the update freezed at 49%. The next day it was restarted but of course it didn't worked again.
    The question is can i reset it some how so i can retry the firmware update ?

    I want to share something related to updating firmware and I cannot create a new topic so I will add it here.
    Today I was reconfiguring my WAP610N, trying to get a little more out of it. I don't have any active b or g devices anymore so I set it to "n only" and walked around the house to see how my connection developed. Not bad at all, I had a fairly good connection all around the house.
    Being the tinkerer that I am, never satisfied until I screwed something up, I thought it would be a good idea to look for new firmware. My current version was 1.0.01 and what do you know? There was a brand new 1.0.05 on LinkSys's website!
    I installed it and... could not connect anymore. Neither with mij fully updated Samsing Galaxy Note II, nor with my brand new Samsung Galaxy Tab S. I tried everything, it didn't get better. I started looking for older firmware versions, wanting to get back where I came from. Stumbled upon FW_WAP610N_v1.0.00.832.bin and installed it. Fortunately the device didn't give me hard time telling me this was an older version or something like that, it just installed it. And I could connect again! Phew!
    Then I found FW_WAP610N_v1.0.01.094.bin , tried that, same problem. Put back v1.0.00.832 again, I could connect again.
    Apperently something was seriously srewed up shortly after v1.0.01.000 . My original v1.0.01 worked fine (which I lost), anything later ruined my WAP610N.
    So, if you have any issues connecting, Google for FW_WAP610N_v1.0.00.832 and install it. Then resist the urge to install the latest available firmware and just enjoy your WAP610N while it works.

  • Problem updating HP Laserjet P1102w Firmware

    In order to make airprint work with my macbook running OS 10.10, and with my iphone running iOS 8, I tried to update firmware from 20130703 to 20150114 released a few days ago. 
    First of all I have had a lot of troubles opening the app HP_Firmware_Upgrade_Utility, the only way to do it is via command line. Anyway I did it.
    When installing the new firmware, the tool installs the older version of the firmware (20130703), the one my printer already runs. 
    Did I make something wrong or is there an issue with the new firmware release?? 

    Hi,
    The Firmware Update utility on the HP site is incompatible with Yosemite, therefore it won't run.
    It is supported on Mac OS X 10.4 up to 10.9 or any Windows OS (XP up to 8.1)
    I suggest intalling the printer on another PC with a supported operating system for the firmware utility, be aware that the utility only support a USB connection and not a wireless connnection to the computer.
    Regardless, AirPrint should work with the 20130703 firmware version, I would ratehr suspect other cause as lack of Multicast support by the router as example which is a common cause for AirPrint not to work.
    Please clarify your router brand and model in order to better understand what may cause a such.

  • External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware

    External hard drive connected to my airport extreme will no longer open, when navigating to it in Finder, the Finder window quits and reopens, cannot access hard drive, it is visible in airport utility, since the problem began I have updated firmware on Extreme as well as both of my Airport Expresses. Hard drive is USB connected to Extreme.

    Reboot the USB drive.. assuming it is powered.. or unplug and replug a self-powered drive.. (you should not use self-powered drives on AE before the latest model.. always use a powered hub).
    Does the drive now appear in finder..
    If not reboot both drive and the AE.. it should now appear.
    If it doesn't work with direct connection try a powered hub.. that can help.

  • Problem updating Nokia N97 firmware over the arir ...

    OK here goes,
    I'm having some real problems updating the firmware on my white nokia N97
    I recently bought it of the web as a 12 month contract onto t-mobile (not there website though) in th uk
    After noticing some problems i googled and noticed a firmware update had been released on 1st july 2009
    I tried to get the firmwae over the air (OTA) via typing in *#0000# and selecting check for updates. I get no updates available for nokia and t-mobile (unsure what the difference is?)
    So i heard try using nokia software updater.
    i downloaded latest version 1.6.13 and installed it on a windows vista 32-bit home premium laptop ok
    i have also installed all of the stuff that came with the cd with the phone (ovistore etc )
    when i plug the phone into the laptop i get four options (PC, media, usb and something else) first time it ran it installed the necessary drivers and so therefore when i now plug it it just connects as expected.
    so the laptop is detecting the nokia n97 at this stage
    when i then load nokia software updater click next i put the phone into general mode on full charge with a sim card in it and click next again to detect the phone is pc suite mode
    after about 2 minutes it says it can detect the phone although i can go to my computer and traverse the folder view!
    i can even set it off looking for the phone pluggin it in and the autoplay options of vista will kick in in the background detecting the phone (ie outisde scope of nokia software updater)
    i have tried all different connections mode pc suite mode etc different profiles nothing. tried it onto different pcs with different windows version on it. tried reinstalling software updater
    my software version is 10.0.012 and my product code is 0587240
    interestingly when i goto the can i update on nokias website it says no i have the latest version when i supply this information. weird
    im kinda in catch 22 because there is a bug with pc usb detection of the phone in version 10 but i cant update to version 11 because of this bug
    its driving me nuts any help greatly appreciated

    It will break your facebook as you have re-formatted the C: drive of you phone. Was you facebook installed to the E: drive by any chance?
    Go to OVI Store and re-install it. 
    It may be work installing it from OVI Store then un-installing that one to clean off the mess you have been left with post formatt and then re-installing it fresh from OVI Store.
    As I always say. Before doing a re-format always  uninstall all apps/widgests before doing a hard reset or factory reset.
    I also do a this and a factory reset before firmware updates to clean my phone. Should really do a hard reset/format as this would be cleaner still, but tehn I would have to do a lot more set-up afterwards.

  • I have Lion on my 13" pro and have kept it up to date. Today I had a message about the need to update firmware. I pressed restart and there was language about the screen ging gray. I think it said for a few minutes.  It has been 3 hrs. is this a problem?.

    I got an alert to update firmware. When I click for restart a message the screen would gray and and it might ake a few minutes.  That was about three hours ago and it is still gray and sitting there. Is this to be expected? What could/should I do?  I am typing this on an ipad because the Macboob Pro is currently useless.

    With Firmware updates, Apple will usually offer instructions to complete the update, since they require an additional step to complete. It sounds like you haven't finished the Firmware update completely.
    Since it's your computer and investment, I wouldn't risk it and would visit your local Apple Store and let them solve the problem. In the meantime, read this link from Apple:

    You can try putting the iPhone into DFU mode and see if that will let you restore and remove the jailbreak:
    http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/24/iphone-dfu-mode-explained-and-how-to-enter-dfu-mo de-on-your-iphone/
    Some jailbreaks cannot be removed and in some cases will permanently disable your iPhone. If that happens to you, then you will have to buy a new iPhone; Apple will provide no support, warranty or out-of-warranty, for a jailbroken iPhone.
    You're on your own from here. We can provide no further help with a jailbroken iPhone in these forums.
    Good luck.
