OK, just checked the code.. even if it's already in boot loader mode it should attempt the update: if (handle->status == MP_STATUS_BOOTLOADER) fprintf(stderr, "in bootloader mode!\n"); int ret = minipro_firmware_update(handle, firmware); minipro_close(handle); So the fact that yours...

So you're saying as soon as you plug it back in the lights immediately start flashing? Without issuing any terminal commands?

Bootloader. Unplug and replug. It should recover after that.

Are the lights on? It may be stuck in boot loader mode from a previous attempt at a firmware update..

"No programmer found" means you don't have the TL866 plugged in.. I use "The Unarchiver" to pull apart .exe's.

In the archive I linked to the file is just "updateII.dat" - not sure where that one you have is from... minipro will tel you the version details when you try to use though. So, at the terminal you need to be typing: minipro -F /Users/jacobjanoski/Downloads/updateII_v10.71.dat (assuming I...

Very nice, although I don't think emoji's were "a thing" in 1991.. :) OMG - want to swap? I have 110 and need 240..!

The updateII.dat is in this: xgproV1205_setup.rar

Don't worry about those - they're just the source files. They have no bearing on the execution of the app once it's compiled - which it already is. You need to download the Windows application as the updateII.dat file is in there. It's not part of minipro.

It's not part of minipro. It's part of the Window's application installer package. If you have the Windows app you should be able to find it in the same directory.

If you right-click the folder containing the updateII.dat file and select "Services/New Terminal at folder" it should drop you right where you need to be. Then the update command should work just fine.

That error you're getting simply means minipro can't find the file in the current directory.. I get the same thing if I move to another directory..

Yeah, but you need to be in the same directory as the firmware file, or give minipro the full path to where it is.

Are you in the directory where the updateII.dat file resides?

What's the exact message you get? The firmware update function spews a bunch of helpful messages if it fails at any point..

I've got that one with original disks, but there was also a folder with blank disks for running the floppy tests with.

These are the docs that came with my unit for reference. The two floppies with introduction and reporting software are there, but I'm missing the blank floppies and its folder.

No water damage at all. Whew. @retr01 Apple did that slick video and there were mentions in various trade mags like MacWeek. But I’ve never seen a print ad per-se which is odd.

Right, I need to check if mine is water damaged too!

That case is @Elemenoh 's design for reference - it's pretty great!
