The New G5 1.8 SP Firmware Update

I have a 1.8 Single Processor Power Mac. The only thing is it says "Late 2004". I got mine in late 2003 with the first batch of G5s. Are these 2 different types? Should I get the update? I went to software update and nothing came up.

Tyler,
Launch the System Profiler (About this Mac) under the Apple Menu.
Then click on "More Info".
Then click on "Hardware".
If one of the entries is: "Bus Speed: 600 MHz", then you have a "late 2004".
If the Bus Speed is 900 MHz, then you have the earlier version of the G5 1.8 Single Processor.

    I have an RVS4000 with V1.1.09 firmware... the firmware is too old to update to the new 1.3 how do I update my firmware
    Does anyone have an older version of the firmwre, as Cisco has conveniently removed all older releases of the firmware and only has a utility so I can not load the software via the router.

    You would need to contact SBSC and ask for firmware 1.1.14.
    Here is a historic thread about the firmware upgrade issue.

    How can i play my avi formatted movies with the new mac OSX 10.9.2 update?

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

  • New Zen 8GB crashed during firmware update; now I can't get it to reboot or connect to a compu

    I went and exchanged my "problematic white screen" ZEN 8GB for a new one this evening. When I came home, I attached the new unit to my computer and started to perform the required firmware upgrades. The upgrades downloaded fine, but after the installation started, they seemed to freeze. I waited for an hour before I did anything, but finally had to assume that the update had malfunctioned and would never finish on its own. At that point I clicked "cancel" in the window monitoring the upgrade installation, and thought I could just start the process anew. Unfortunately, my computer no longer recognizes the ZEN when it's plugged into a USB port.
    I rebooted my computer, just in case that was the problem, but it still can't find the ZEN when searching for devices to AutoUpdate. As for the Zen itself, I can turn it on and off, but the screen remains black (i.e., no info on screen). If I reset it, the screen flashes the word "Creative" only. If I try to do a Recovery, I can't get any text to appear on the screen. I can't even reformat the ZEN via my computer because they're no longer speaking. I assume that the interrupted firmware installation caused this problem, and that the ZEN just doesn't have enough of an operating system installed to work properly. Is there any fix for this that I can tackle myself Or, is it back to the store to return this one, too I have noticed a lot of white screen flashings as I've been working with the new ZEN, so perhaps this just wasn't meant to be. Any words of advice are certainly appreciated, however.

    Same happened to me and I only had the thing a few hours. I may leave it connected overnight to see if the battery needs charging but if nothing happens it's going back. I've tried plenty of suggestions. The Creative screen flashes on when I plug it in but then just sits there. Reseting does nothing and how can you do anything to it if it's not recognised by the PC. Vista did see it before the update attempt. Wondered whether to throw XP back on.
    Do I have to resort to the new ipod Nano
    OK I've done it. Somewhere on this forum it said to disconnect the Zen from the PC.
    Now at the same time, press and hold the play/pause button, put a pin into the reset button and hold down the on/off switch (yes all 3 in that order at the same time). Recovery mode came on and I tried to uninstall the firmware update from previously - it didn't do it but I updated the latest firmware again anyway and this time it worked. I guess the last attempt didn't take.

  • My new mac mini downloaded a firmware update. I saw this in apps but gave an error when launching. Now what?

    Yesterday I received a new mac mini (actually, a refurbished one that was originally released in July, sold from Apple).  It downloaded a bunch of stuff when I did the software update, including an EFI Firmware update for the mac mini.
    As far as I can tell everything ran just fine.  However, I noticed in my applications folder (possibly under "utilities" though I may be wrong), an item with the circle/slash through it.  It was the firmware update.  I tried to open it and I received a message that the application could not be opened because of a problem when downloading it.
    I deleted the file, hoping the software update would catch it again, no luck.
    This is a new system and I'm hesitant to start deleting receipts, library files, etc., on my own.
    I did unplug it and re-boot.  No change.
    I checked for firmware updates and looked at my system info and it looks like I have the current version.
    I tried to manually download the latest firmware update for my system and it told me that this software wasn't for my system, although I'm sure I downloaded the right file for my system.
    Why would that app have the circle/slash through it but looked like it may have run based on my system info?
    Should I do anything else at this point or just leave it alone?
    Thanks.

    I have a Mac Mini (mid-2011) with that same app circled out. I just left it as is in Utilities since I have no idea what it is and it's not hurting anything. Unfortunately, it won't show up in Installed Software.
    You said you deleted the app file from Utilities. Is the Mac mini EFI Firmware Update.app still in your Trash? If so, why not just put it back and not worry about it?
    As far as I know the firmware is installed. Check your System info by clicking  -> About This Mac -> More Info....-> System Report. Check the Hardware Overview and the Boot ROM Version:. It should be the same as my Mac Mini below if the EFI 1.3 firmware was installed.
    Here's the link where the download resides. Note that it's for mid-2011 Mac Mini.

  • What is the purpose and benefit of a firmware update?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Being able to provide a firmware update to a product is very beneficial. It allows the opportunity to enhance the functionality and operational features of a product, and can also provide service fixes for particular issues.
    With the ever-changing advances in technology, updating firmware to gain additional features and capabilities helps prevent a product from becoming obsolete and maintain its competitive value. As new products are released on the market with improved features, firmware updates for existing products may potentially offer the same improved features. Therefore, it may not always be necessary to purchase a new product just to stay up-to-date with current technology.
    As mentioned earlier, firmware updates may sometimes also provide service fixes. Updating the firmware yourself may eliminate the need to bring a product into a service center for an expensive repair. Although not every repair issue can be resolved with a firmware update, if one is available for a particular issue, it can save a lot of time and money.

  • Cannot upload photos to internet sites with the new Photo app (10.10.3 Update)

    I'm not a huge fan of the redesigned Photo app that came with the 10.10.3 update. So, I can no longer upload photos from my computer to websites with this app. It's like the pictures don't exist when the window pops up for what files you would like to select. I have had to work around by dragging the photos out of the app and to my desktop, then upload them via the pop up window from there; that works just fine. Now I have duplicates all over my desktop cause I need them so frequently. All my photos and albums do seem to be in the app correctly, I just can't access them from other programs and the Internet. I run the latest of Firefox. IPhoto is still showing on my dock too, does it need to be there now that it has been replaced with the Photo app? I havent tried opening it, but I do know I cannot select any images from the old IPhoto when trying to upload to the Internet, the app doesn't exist in that situation. Even beyond upload to third party sites on the Internet, I had the same issue when I attempted to put my logo in to Pages to create a binder cover last night. I had to go do my work around again and drag my logo out of the program to the desktop. I have restarted the computer several times and have shut down nightly since the new update. What is wrong with this app?

    Seems like a simple question
    How exactly are you uploading?
    And after you stated that you did not understand this simple question you answered it
    And of course until you answered no one had any idea how you were doing it - there are many ways including many incorrect ways so in order to help we have to understand what you are doing - many times the answer is as simple and providing the correct method to replace the incorrect method that one is using
    And iphoto of course still exists and is usable on you system - Photos was added - iPhoto was not removed with the upgrade to 10.103
    You are not "forced to use Photos - in fact many people are not - I am not yet sure if I will or not
    And the discussion on using the media browser is not at all irreverent - in fact  it still works virtually exactly the same as with iPhoto - which is why I referenced it of course
    And you spent so much time on weird and incorrect dribble that you failed to answer another critical question
    what happens that you can not upload them?
    WE can not see you and can not help unless you actually provide details and all requested information - you stream of incorrect statements and editorials not only do not help us help you, they create a major barrier to helping you

  • I have a new macbook pro running lion and want to update the software on my ipod touch. My old macbook ran 10.4.11 and won't update - but the new computer says I have to update on the computer I normally sync on or my music will be lost. Solution?

    I have a new macbook pro running lion and want to update to ios 5 on my ipod touch.  My old macbook only has 10.4.11 and can't be updated to lion - and won't update my ipod touch to ios 5.  But the message on my new macbook pro says I have to update on the computer I normally use for syncing or my music will be lost.  Is there any solution for this?

    try exporting your iTunes libary from the old computer to the new one

  • Will the Creative Zen Xtra have a firmware update for "driverless" operati

    Is it even possible? I contacted Creative Labs and they said they would put the suggestion on the possibility for a future implemented feature. I just bought the 30GB model for $79 off of Outpost.com [the cheapest I've seen online] without any rebates. It is awesome--sound quality, menu, and design. It is a bit large, but I don't care. This is my first mp3 player that actually has a hard dri've. I've wanted to get this one since last January, but kept putting it off.
    Anyway, is it possible for a firmware update for a driverless operation so you can add songs on any Windows XP/2000 PC without having to install the Nomad Explorer program? Thanks!

    Driverless support is supposedly coming for Windows Media Player 0.
    The reasons behind all this are discussed in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net http://www.nomadness.net/modules.php...Jukebox+Zen#34
