: HS-DHGL in Emergency Mode on MAC firmware update needed?
: buffaloyoda May 13, 2011, 12:58:08 PM

Hi

 

Here's hoping someone can help on this.  Got a HS-DHGL.  Was working a year ago on my old PC.  Have now got it on my MAC network but is showing as 'Emergency Mode' on NASNavigator2.  Is not showing up on my MAC as a drive. 

 

Seems a lot of people have suggested a firmware update so I downloaded the firmware.  However, all the files seem to be Windows files.  Am I missing something by chance?

You need to install the firmware from a windows OS, it won't work from a MAC.

Davo is correct. There is not Mac firmware update for this unit. It can only be done through Windows. Running Windows on your Mac might work, but I have seen some issues with trying to transfer the firmware that way.

Many thanks for the responses...I'll go find a friendly person who'll let me use their Windows PC!
