Updates Sometimes Work, Sometimes Don't

    I put the .bios under the OS Update folder on a KPA formatted USB stick, and I have 2 of them.


    Sometimes it gives me the option to update, others it doesn't. It always sees the stick and allows me to import/export, but rebooting or switching sticks may not do anything, switching the knob to Tune then Browser, nothing.


    But then, all of a sudden, randomly it pops up the modal window asking if I want to update.


    Is there a specific procedure I'm to use to ensure an update? I've always been able to update, but I gotta play games to get it going.

    It's random. Are you saying the modal window comes up within 10 seconds or something?


    Sometimes it does. Most times it doesn't. The option to use the stick comes up as a choice in the main window, but not the update modal window.


    Maybe I'm impatient and need to wait? I typically wait a minute or two and then try doing something else. I switch between the 2 sticks to see if one was having trouble or not contacting well, but since I can import/export I know it's not that.

    I noticed the same thing db. I usually have my usb stick in when I power up, and for me I recycled power twice and it never saw the new OS, (however it did see the stick). Then when I unplugged it and plugged it back in while the KPA was already powered up, I got the "new OS detected" pop-up, and I was off and running.

    Ok, I knew that the same OS won't do it. Good to know you don't need to reboot, just swap the stick in/out.


    I don't see it as a problem until I can't do an update, but so far I've ALWAYS been able to do every update successfully. Just sometimes it works first time, other times, I gotta remove and replace the stick a few times. Each time though, the stick IS recognized as external storage, so it's not a problem with a bad connection.


    Will the Rig Manager ever be able to update the OS? That would be cool. I like redundant features.


    I chalk this issue up to the KPA being Moody. Perhaps CK created the first realistic Artificial Intelligence as a side-effect of Amp Realism! Who knew!
