Problems with new Firmware-Update MF Classic
Posted on: 05.08.2012 by Bernardina Reinders
Hey DJ Techtools,

I recently tried to update my MF Classic with the new Firmware-Update tool. It didnt work on PC (Win7, 32b) and also didnt work on my MacBook Pro (10.7.*i dont know the last number but its the newest version of OSX Lion*).

I took some research on that and tried everything i could find in these threads:

Unfortunately, nothing worked (or i did something wrong, i dont know). I've spend literally 4 hours now desperately trying to repair that littly buddy.

Both, PC & Mac recognize the MF in their system, so there is nothing wrong with the USB connection.

Another strange thing is how the LEDs light up when connected. I uploaded a little video for you to check it out:



I also attached 2 screenshots of the MF Firmware Tool. The second one shows an error on the buttom: "RtMidiOut::sendMessage: error preparing sysex header." Don't know what that means.1.jpg2.jpg

I would have sent it over to you guys to fix it but i'm from germany and it will be quite expensive to send it over and on top of that i will have to pay customs duty... So that will only be the final solution if everything else fails.

I need some HELP PLEASE! ..And sorry for my bad english!

THANKS!
greets from germany,
Max
