Default Re: HD Native cant Update Firmware after installing PT9.0.5 Update

Quote:
If your computer is a recently purchased one that came with Lion on it you won't be able to load SL on it; something about Apple messing with the efi. Target mode - don't know if that'll work. Let us know if it does.
Although musicman691 is right that you can't Install an earlier version than the one that the computer came out with, my suggestion is to install a bootable OS onto an external drive and fire it up as a target mode which CAN be done (it was the fix i used)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but i'm not sure if your newly purchased SL copy will work either, Apple is known for updating its SL boxed in parallel to the download-able releases, so you might get in your mail a copy of a Full OS 10.6.8 installer which is again the version you can't use to fix the firmware.

Best regards
