The fix above didn't work for me and I assumed it was because it wasn't running with admin priviledges, so for step 7 I ran the following instead:.
Enter your admin password and you're done. The lot code changed immediately for me, I didn't even need to reboot. Since last week my battery doesn't charge. I tried to install Batery Update 1. But my 'lot code' doesn't change, it's still I don't know if i'm doing something wrong, or simply my battery is dead and i have to buy another one.
Thank u for your answers! Lost your password? Powered by the Parse. After the battery firmware update is successfully applied, the Pack Lot Code is changed to Battery Update 1.
This means if you are running Snow Leopard and you buy a new battery from the Apple Store, your battery will not perform properly and will suffer the defects that Battery Update 1. It would be great if Apple would release Battery Update 1.
To resolve the issue, manually install and run Battery Update 1. I have a different battery lot in my MacBook than the affected model.

Sep 10, AM in response to Tmaxdog In response to Tmaxdog That update was released before Snow Leopard was released, meaning any necessary code from that update would be included in any Snow Leopard installation by default.
Actually, it was all normal after the Really frustrating. But if I can't resolve this I'll just have to call Apple and see what they say. I know that OS and firmware updates can cause hardware problems. I've seen it in the past with Powerbooks, for example, where updates killed RAM. Anyway, thanks again for your help. Will keep you posted. Do you mean the original system disks for the Macbook? Not sure I have those, will have to check. But I don't think they were for Is that okay?
And just to reiterate, I did already try to install from the Retail So I have already tried that. I was hoping for something I could do in the current situation. I've left it in FW mode while waiting to decide what to do.
And it also seems that the What about cloning my current working I was able to clone my working I shut everything down and went back to the 2.
Booted, but got 3 flashing lights, so bad RAM. Replaced the RAM, tried to boot, the Apple logo came up, the boot process started, the spinning cog wheel went on for about 2 minutes, then the screen suddenly went black and the Macbook went into Sleep. I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a Retail Snow Leopard DVD, it booted fine, then the screen went black at about the same time as before.
With the screen still black, I waited for the DVD to spin a bit more, then I hit Enter and it sounded like it was ready to install. I rebooted and then the external display received a video signal and I got to the Snow Leopard install screen. I went to Disk Utility and reformatted the new drive, then started the installation, which is now proceeding.
Why would the Macbook display work fine at boot Apple logo, etc. Does this sound heat-related in some way? I should note that while booting from the DVD and now installing Snow Leopard, the fans are going pretty fast. I just want to point out that this was an absolutely pristine, impeccable Macbook until these recent problems. It is in fantastic condition, none of the usual chips out of the top case and trackpad area.
After the latest fresh install of I don't know how much stock can be put in the firmware update being the cause of the problems, but the sequence here would bear that out. These are also somewhat unusual problems, at least in my experience.
Is there a smaller download possibly on some other site which would work? My question is different, because I wouldn't mind downloading and istalling parts of Xcode to get gcc, as long as it's reasonably large, say MB uncompressed.
Is that possible? Based on some answers below, I noticed that Xcode 3. This tool package includes make and gcc, I searched for a very long time, and finally, Apple released it. If you download Xcode 4. If you use Xcode, these tools are also embedded with the Xcode IDE, and can be installed on your system using the Downloads preferences pane with Xcode 4.
This package requires Mac OS X If you don't have Xcode on a system restore disk, retail copy of OS X, or as an optional installer on your hard drive, you will need to download the appropriate Xcode package for Leopard. Xcode 3. For When logged in, you should find it in your Developer Download and ADC Program Assets section of the Developer Connection website you may have to search a bit to find that, though.
Note the Apple-supplied GCC has a number of Apple-developed enhancements, particularly in the area of multi-architecture support, that some open-source projects, in particular, Python, depend on. You may be able to get things to work with a vanilla GCC but is it worth your time and hassle to hack around and test and guess?
Have you thinked about GNU-Darwin ports? There are many binary packages, gcc too, but i don't tried it on my own. This won't have the iOS bits, etc. The Xcode download is quite big, but if you really want things to work well, you should use it. GCC might be easier to get familier, and Apple version command line tool is fine to me.
