PowerPC :: How To Update Firmware On G4
Feb 26, 2007I've just got my hands on three G4 AGP Power Macs and in my rush to upgrade them to OSX I didn't upgrade the firmware. I now find that I can't use 512mb Ram as it only works with the current firmware update. But I no longer have OS9 to boot from so how do I update it? Or where can I find OS9?

Dec 11, 2008I get this error: "unexpected error occurred (0); unable to upgrade firmware". They refer me to this site: [URL]. I just bought this late 08 MBP and I have a bootcamp partition running Windows XP Pro 32Bit on a NTFS partition. Why is this so complicated? Macs have always been easy on me until this. They tell me to do a full reinstall but I don't understand how this will fix the problem since I don't know where this comes from. It says to go check my "Partition Map Scheme" and I have a "Master Boot Record". It says I need a "GUID_partition_scheme". How come I don't have a "GUID_partition_scheme"?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMac Pro :: Wake From Sleep After Firmware Update
Apr 30, 2008Before I purchased my Mac Pro on friday, I made sure to read these forums to make myself aware to some problems that could occur. When I got home, I made sure to do all the software updates and the Mac Pro is completely up to date, including the latest update from yesterday. However, this morning when I went to wake up my Mac Pro I couldn't get it to work so I had to do a hard restart. Should this be a concern for me? I put it back into sleep mode again and it woke up fine.. Could this have been a fluke?

Jun 22, 2009After the update, my MacBook Pro is extermely sluggish. Prior to the update, I was zipping along like most happy MacBook Pro owners. After the update, I constantly see the dreaded beach ball when doing almost anything with the laptop, Safari pages take longer to load, etc.
It's almost as if the udpate had the opposite effect and actually throttled down my WD 500GB HDD performance to a large degree.
Like I said, prior to the update all was good. I've been searching to see if there is a way to revert back to the previous firmware to validate that the update caused the problem but I haven't been successfull in finding anything yet.
IMac :: Unable To Update Firmware?
Jan 5, 2010When given a video card update (esp from using windows) it almost always improves the video card. Apple releases the flicker fix update and I don't have a flicker issue. No screen issues at all really.
I feel like it's Russian roulette. Update or not? I know some people will say don't fix what ain't broke, but what exactly is IN the fix? Is it exclusively for the flicker issue or does it update/upgrade other aspects on the card? Mine has the ATI card in it.

MacBook Pro :: Ram Not Working After 2.8 Firmware Update?
Feb 29, 2012Installed the 2.8 firmware update on my late '08 macbook pro and after restarting it, it would just beep 3 times and not start up. I pulled my 8 gig kingston ram out, repositioned back and still the same issue. Slapping in the original 4 gigs of apple ram, it will start up and work fine though. Is there a fix to get the 8 gigs working again on the machine?

MacBook Pro :: EFI Firmware Update 2.5 & Booting OS 10.6.x?
Apr 23, 2012Are there any known compatibiity issues with booting from an OS 10.6.x drive after installing EFI Firmware Update 2.5?I am running Lion (10.7.3) on my MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2010) but have held off installing the firmware update because being able to boot from a 10.6.x backup drive is more important right now than internet-based Lion recovery. If there's no issue booting 10.6.x (and running apps), then I will go ahead and install the firmware update, otherwise I'll wait awhile longer.

MacBook Air :: Recent Firmware Revision Update On MBA?
Dec 10, 2010I did the latest firmware update few days ago and went through that series of boots. It's a shame on me that I didn't jog down the ROM revision info before the update. According to the this link:
[URL]
The FM Rev should be MBA31.0061.B01 after the update.
My MBA 13 is still read MBA31.0061.B00 after I thought I did the update. Does that mean the update didn't go through?
