I upgraded my MacPro5,1 without incident. However, the subsequent installation progress just hung the computer when the progress bar was about 9/10 of the way through. (I left it on overnight and nothing else happened.) Hard rebooting it worked successfully. Maybe this was related to its conversion of my SSD to APFS? Who knows. Anyway, this isn't Cocoa-related, so we probably shouldn't be discussing it on this list. b ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Firmware upgraded to MP51.0084.B00 when installing macOS High Sierra. Starting computer from macOS Sierra Installer does not allow firmware to be upgraded. Must start computer from macOS Sierra then launch installer app and follow directions. Everything seems to be working fine. --Richard Charles ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

High Sierra Firmware Update
I have a 2009 Mac Pro with the firmware upgraded from MacPro4,1 B08 to MacPro5,1 B03. It has been running macOS Sierra flawlessly for 9 months. Now when installing macOS High Sierra I get the following message. "To install macOS High Sierra, a firmware update is required.” So apparently High Sierra upgrades the firmware on Mac Pro 5,1 models. https://www.macobserver.com/news/mac-pro-macos-high-sierra-firmware-update/ Question: Has anyone successfully upgraded the firmware an older Mac Pro when installing High Sierra? --Richard Charles ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
