    Default Cant get into bootloader mode...

    title says it all... cant seem to get my mf pro bm into booatloader mode. old updater says "the disk image can not be opened", and the new updater just gets held up at "putting midifighter into bootloader mode..."

    no idea what firmware version im running..Ive tried holding the four corners with no luck. is my only option taking it apart and manually putting it into bootloader mode with the red buttons ive read about?... then what do i do?

    edit: macbook pro 10.6.8 osx

    Heya,

    So first of does the unit work normally?

    Secondly do all four corner buttons generate midi?

    the mf pro bm operates as a mf classic, no fader, presets or filter knob response. its in 4banks mode, and all corners are responsive when used in traktor..

    Hmm it def sounds like the four corner method should work.

    One problem people some time have is that they are not holding the four corners long enough.

    You need to hold them not just as you plug it in, but until the snake pattern has finished and you get a checker board pattern on the leds (every other led is on)

    Are you getting the checkerboard pattern?

    yeah I have been with support looked at all forums for hours
    yes I get into the alternate blue bootloader pattern
    This thing will not update as said to remix deck firmware.
    I am pissed. not working
    And the closest to any answer that keeps coming up is to hold 4 corner buttons?
    I even watched a youtube video, But doing exactly what that person does. Still useless.

    Why even release this knowing it is faulty? If I don't get this working in another day I will never buy from djtt again. Sorry but the promo videos and hype got me here and now I have a paper weight?

    AWW man seriously! so basically there is no hope? four corner buttons is you hold down the four corner buttons while plugging it in and it will enter bootloader mode manually but.. that still wont work for me. Also Im with you man!
