EMI Firmware Update 1.3 problem

I'm having a weird problem with the 1.3 version of EMI Firmware Update.



After I restart my computer after installation, everything seems okay. But a couple of days later, Software Update prompts me that I need to install exactly the same firmware update again, as if I hadn't installed it in the first place.



Anyone else getting this?

    Didn't this update make you run the downloaded update file after the re-start if I recall.



    Have you tried updating again as per the request? Humour your Mac, it may be correct \

    It's taken me a while to get back on this thread, but I wanted to see if it dissapeared after installing 10.5.3 - unfortunately, it's still there....







    It has it listed as installed on the "installed updates" section.... several times over.



    This is the weirdest problem in the world, and quite frustrating. Any more ideas?

    Did you do the whole shut down, hold the power button, wait for the series of beeps, see the weird screen with the progress bar?

    No, but I've just realised WHY I haven't done that - it doesn't shut down for me. It just runs the script, and says it the firmware is install, without even the mention to shut down. It all seems done, until I check again for updates, and there's EFI Firmware 1.3 once again!

    Hi,



    I am having the same problem as Mambo06 has outlined above, and I am unsure what to do next.



    Yes, I click on the shut down option, but no, I don't get the funny screen and series of beeps. It just shuts down, and the next time I start up, it wants to do the whole thing again.



    Any ideas?
