Re: New Release - My Book Live Firmware Version 02.11.12-060 (6/26/12)

that link lists the three fixed issues, and then says "other updates included".  but the release notes just list the same three fixed issues....so was there anything else?  or just time machine, 30000 error, and relay connection?

Those were the three issues. I'll ask them to reword the release notes to be clearer.

Note that there are three reports of failure of this upgrade under another thread this morning.

I am on the phone (hold) with support now.

The firmware was just posted... I don't see any threads with failures. What is your issue?

yes - upgrading from that version will still have a small chance to see issues with the upgrade. These issues were not fixed unitl 02.11.09-53 (the previous release). Once you are on 02.11.09-53,  the update issues will be less, but they are not completely resolved until 02.11.12-060. Sorry for the inconvience.  You should be able to retry the upgrade. Also, Downloading the firmware and manually updating will also help.

I udpated my previous post. Talked to the engineers and the issues though mostly fixed still could happen in the last firmware update. This version will fix it (yea yea - I know). You can do a couple things:

 

Either reboot and try it again, or if wait about 10-20 minutes (depending on the download speed) before re-trying.  Chances are the download is still in progress in the background.  If you retry immediately after the error, you may run into the 10% hang issue.
