Have you checked in System Profiler to see what EFI Firmware version is
installed on the MBP, as in Carlo's 'Article 1' link?

Hi Jim,
I think that Ronni and her iPad are narrowing down the problem. From your last
reply you do indeed have a MBP 7.1 with outdated firmware. The most recent
version of the firmware is available at the link Ronni sent earlier:

1. Download this firmware
Thanks Jim for the information.
Well, the EFI Firmware Update 2.0 has certainly not been installed, as after
the update has successfully completed, your Boot ROM Version will be:
MBP71.0039.B0B … yours is still MBP71.0039.B05.
I'm just rushing out on jobs today, but one thing I suggest you
Hi Carlo,
That's what I believe Jim has done following my previous instructions?
I've gotta go, I'm running late for a client, I'll check later and hopefully
we have result ;-)

Any advice please peeplezzzI own a six month old Mac Pro.
For the past three months, my update has given me this message daily. And

Hi Jim,
I am not sure what is going wrong. You seem to be acting correctly. There are a
number of knowledge base articles on the subject and I will give you links
below.
Use Article 1 below to verify that you, in fact, need to update -- chances are
you do as the Software Update application
Hi Jim,
You MUST have the Power Cord plugged power your MBP.
Also good to have the MBP fully charged and into Power.
I suggest you follow these instructions:
1. Restart your MacBook Pro

hi
to those who do frequent backups: do you backup your important stuff to raid or
just a normal external hard drive/portable drive will do it for you?
i have my stuff backed up to a WD portable drive already, but thinking i can
ditch that for a raid, but raid is not as portable as my
Hehe,
Lots of different opinions on this, no doubt it all depends on the
importance of your info and your level of concern/paranoia from the
ultra-conservative:
Time machine backup to RAID+
Bootable Clone to Raid+
Rotating off-site backup+
Cloud storage back-up
All the way down to more
Wow that's some pretty serious backup. I'm not sure why you'd want to backup
to a RAID considering that HD mechanical failure is pretty rare these days and
the chances of both your main drive and your backup drive suffering a
simultaneous failure is pretty unlikely. Although RAID1 isn't a
Hi Ruben,
Maybe I didn¹t explain as clearly as I should the stuff on my raid is not
on my computer, or other backups it¹s for stuff I want to keep, don¹t
access much, not a REAL tragedy to lose but the mirrored raid gives a bit
of redundancy (over a single disc) - it was a good use for the
Ah that makes heaps more sense. The redundancy would actually be quite useful
since your not accessing those drives very frequently.
Thanks for clarifying
