Updating the firmware on my Pana HVX200

I'm hoping to shoot with a 16gig P2 card and realized I need a firmware upgrade for my camera.
The Panasonic site is very confusing on exactly what I need to download and how to install?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

That's how you do it.
Follow it specifically.
Use at least a 64 MB SD card. Format it in the cam, not on your Mac.
Make certain you are using AC power.
Sounds intimidating; it isn't.
Most people who have problems don't follow these specific instructions:
1. Download the Driver Software file “VVVSI***.zip” from the P2 support desk.
2. Copy the file “VVVSI***.zip” to the hard disk of your PC and extract the file
3. Insert a formatted SD card into the card slot of PC.
4. Copy the whole folder “PRIVATE” in the extracted folder to the SD card.
NOTE: Do not change the construction of folder and the file name.

How can I update the firmware all at once

I'm a tech support in a school, approximately our school has over 500 laptops, how can I update the firmware on all laptops at once?

Apple Configurator is the software you want - and it's free from Apple. However, I'm dubious that firmware can be updated all at once.

Need help - Error while updating the firmware of Muvo Slim using the recovery t

Hi ,
While I am trying to update my Muvo slim firmware using the recovery tool it throwd up an error. And from then onwards if I am trying to power it up it won't.
If I again try to update the firmware, it throws up the error that "Unable to Write to Device: Device Time out".
I am afraid that my Muvo slim got bricked. Can you please help me in recovering the same.
PS: My PC OS is Windows XP.
Thank & Regards
ksraghava?

On my XP system, the last time I wanted to reload the firmware, I had to remove all of my Creative software programs,?and then revert my Windows Media Player back to 0 and then use The Recovery Tool. It is a bit of a pain, but does seem to work when you are getting errors with the firmware download.

Almost forgot. Make sure your player is fully charged or has a fresh battery before starting any firmware download.

Error while updating the firmware

I have X4500 running solaris 10 OS with software version 5.10. The ILOM version is 1.1.1. I tried to update the firmware but I cannot do that because I am getting an error. This is how I setup everything and I get the error mentioned below.
C H A P T E R 1 - Flash Upgrading Your Server to Software Release 1.2
I referred to the above link to do so. But, I do not understand what is the tftpserver that I need to mention here. I get an error message saying gethostbyname() failed. I also setup tftp server on my solaris machine using the following link.
A P P E N D I X C - Updating the Firmware
Please, help me.

ILOM <1.1.8 was pretty flaky. 1.0 was described to me by a Sun CSE as the worst piece of software they ever released. I beg to differ, having been forced to use YP and rpc.lockd in the past but I digress ...
o) Are you sure that you're getting the right firmware image? You want the x4500-specific images here: http://www.sun.com/servers/x64/x4500/downloads.jsp Be careful not to mix up x4100/x4200, x4100m2/x4200m2, x4600, x4500, etc. files as they are different
o) Do a "show /SYS/MB" before updating your firmware and stash the output. Updates from 1.x versions of ILOM have a way of wiping the system serial and part numbers. If you record that info first you can repair after the fact.
o) Do a "reset /SP" to reset the service processor before attempting the update. 1.x versions of ILOM, especially <=1.1.1, seem to upgrade more reliably when they're freshly booted
o) Be sure that /SYS is stopped before you update ILOM
o) You don't specify what command you're using to try to update, but I suspect that you're trying something like
load -source tftp://some.host.domain/file.ima
given the gethostbyname error. Give it the ip address of the tftp server not the FQDN.

IMac G3 won't boot after updating the firmware and upgrading the OS!

Hi! Everyone,
I have an iMac G3 333MHz (five flavors) which comes with 192MB of RAM and 6GB of hard drive. Originally, it was OS 8.5.1 installed, later upgraded to OS 9.2.2. Of course, the firmware has been updated by the appropriate method provided by the on-screen instructions before the installation of 9.2.2. After successfully updating the firmware and installing Mac OS 9.2.2, the system booted up and worked fine. However, after shutting it down and powering it up a few days later, I have encountered a critical problem:
1. At first, the iMac would chime and displayed a smiley-mac finder face.
2. No question mark appeared and the system halted because it stayed at the same screen for about 5 minutes! Also, the keyboard wouldn't respond. For instance, the LED signal light wouldn't light on when Caps Lock was pressed.
3. I assumed that this is just a typical crash and rebooted the machine via the "reset" button on the right side of the machine.
4. After restarting, well, no luck, the same condition. Therefore, I rebooted it again by using the method mentioned above.
5. The condition of sticking at the smiley-mac finder face occurred again! However, this time the iMac wouldn't chime and just displayed the mac face.
6. Another restart, well, it was getting worse... no chime and no smiley-mac finder face but a white screen.
7. I was frustrated then and shut the machine down forcefully by rebooting it again and pressing on the power bottom quickly before the screen appears. Also, I unplugged the power cord.
---------- After a few hours later ----------
8. Okay, I then plugged the power cord in and booted it up again, this time, it would chime but stuck at the white screen. => No smiley-mac finder face appeared!
9. Rebooted it again, the result was as same as step 8.
10. Another restart, the smiley-mac face finally appeared but still... stuck here and this time, no chime.
11. I then shut the machine forcefully by using the method mentioned above and let the machine rest for about a day with the power cord unplugged.
---------- After resting for a day ----------
12. I booted it up and it would chime, but no screen (the power button was orange, not green). I then forcefully shut down the machine.
13. Waited for about a minute and powered it up. This time, I tried to clear the PRAM, but no chime and gave me a white screen. => No luck! As mentioned, the keyboard's LED signal light wouldn't light on even though the Caps Lock key has been pressed.
*Note: The keyboard has been tested on the other computers and it worked. Also, I tried different USB ports to plug the keyboard in. => The USB ports were all in working condition， as I can know from the last successful start up.
14. Forcefully shut the machine down and tried to enter the Open firmware, no luck. It didn't enter and gave my a white screen.
15. Conclusion:
1) After resting for a while, the iMac would chime.
2) Rebooting too much times would cause the machine not to chime and leaded the screen to become white instead of the smiley-mac finder face.
3) However, rebooted the machine when the screen became white, the smiley-mac finder face would appear again without chime.
By the way, I could hear the hard disk spinning up so that means the hard disk is working.
Can anyone help me solve this problem? Is it related to the firmware update? Any suggestions will be appreciated! Thanks!
Andy

OK, I will try replacing the PRAM battery. Also, the PowerMac G3 and the other iMac 233MHz had the dead batteries. They are still working though... Should I replace them along with the iMac 333MHz? In case of not replacing, will they malfunction in future times? There are some symptoms on this two machines: 1. iMac 233MHz - No chime and no sound when adjusting system volume (the bi sound is not available), but iTunes and other applications can still use the audio device and output the sound via internal speakers; 2. PowerMac G3 450MHz - Will chime but sometimes hard to boot: 1) Chime but no screen; 2) No respond after pressing the power button => the power signal light won't light on. Every time I experienced this, I would open its case, pressing a small button (not quite understand what it does... anyway, just works if system halted.) near the PRAM battery and wait for about a minute, then close the case, and it boots. However, I have to reset "Date & Time"...

I updated the firmware to 5.0.1, then began a problem with my gadget I try to restore from a backup firmware, Itunes an error 3194, if I can, and if I do get to shsh ios 5?

Hi hrcpinfreak,
What exactly happens when you try updating your iPod's firmware? If you're getting an error message while syncing your iPod, then please quote what that precisely says.
You could try these five iPod steps, as a start:

Updating the firmware of an older airport extreme

I have an early version of the Airport extreme and, probably 1st gen airport express. Is there anyway to update the firmware on these devices so that they have the most recent firmware versions available to those devices. The only identifying info on them is their model numbers.
On the express it is Model# A1084 and on the Extreme it is Model # A 1034. I realize that these are older units and don't expect much from them, just would like to be able to do it.

The most recent firmware update for both devices that you mention was 8+ years ago, so you likely already have the most up to date firmware that the devices can handle.
5.7 would be the latest firmware for the AirPort Extreme and 6.3 would be the latest for the Express.
AirPort Extreme Firmware Update 5.7 for Mac OS X - Support - Apple
AirPort Express Firmware Update 6.3 for Mac OS X - Support - Apple

Updating the Firmware?

Can this be done on a Mac yet?
Or is it still a pc only option.. As i'd love to update my external pioneer drive firmware.. Come to think of it, i'd love to update the internal one too.. But Matshita never seem to update the firmware :o(
Regards
Chipster

Well if that was the case.. I would of had one by now.. The only time Apple updates the firmware for the superdrive.. If a problem occured.. The firmware updates corrects new types of media and so on.. or new types of dyes used in different media.. Something that shouldn't really concern Apple
But Superdrive makers.. It should concern them.. But they aint interested one bit.. Thats why when you contact them, you never get a reply.. But if you had a Pioneer Drive they are most aware that having the most up to date firmware is important, to both their drives that the users of their drives

Hi anyone. Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB. I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera. Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

Hello,
If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.

Temporarily disable antivirus and firewall on computer.

I have a late 2011 macbook pro and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated

I have a late 2011 macbook pro running OSX Lion, and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated. Im wondering what can i do to stop this or get it to update.

Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

I find Mail under Mavericks to be weird. Are others having this same difficulty. "Upgraded" to Mavericks last week, after updating the firmware to my WD external HD.

I find Mail under Mavericks to be weird. Are others having this same/similar difficulty? "Upgraded" to Mavericks last week, after updating the firmware to my WD external HD.

"Weird" needs further explanation.
Google's highly nonstandard IMAP implementation is weird, if you're using Gmail, though Apple bent over backwards to accomodate it. Other than that, what do you mean by "weird"?

Updating the firmware of a DVR-112D

I have been searching the discussions here and in other places trying to find a way to update the firmware that my DVR-112D uses...eventhough I am running Lion.
The actual Firmware that my original drive has is BC-14 / MMC-3 and I have read that there are ways to update the drive....but I wonder if anyone here can help me to solve this issue...
thanks

Hello mooblie....thanks for your kind answer but the fact of the matter is that doing it using a pc is a no go for me. I don't have one, and even more, doing the procedure in a pc requires first to get the driver out of the mac and then with the internal drive (which is without an external enclosure) somehow open, trying to connect it to the pc....it is both risky and it's a lot of work.
Wile searching for answers that could be implemented for the Mac, well, I even found the recipe as to hows athis can be achieved via Terminal. So as you can see, que purpose of posting this topic here has been hoping that maybe within mac there was another way of accomplishing the task without soo much strugle.
Cheers

How do I update the Firmware on the Quantum Router?

So the Quantom router is missing a bunch of features the old action tech router had. Advanced filteringis gone, I am hoping a firmware update would bring it back. I go to look to upgade or check for a firmware update and that isn't there either.
How do I update the Firmware on the Quantum Router?

The current Quantum firmware version is 0.26.29.
Firmware updates are automatically pushed by Verizon. If you have an older version, reboot the router and it should pickup the new version.
Enjoy.
