[@kotschkano5356]

cheers Christian just updated my dim 850 after recent purchase its the same process as the dim 900 nexus

[@WKSABINE]

Something to add to this video. TURN OFF WIFI on your computer. helped me when it wouldn't connect.

[@johnnyvudu]

Thanks, this solved my issue of the firmware not loading

[@numerologylogic]

PIN THIS COMMENT IT WORKED!!!!

[@DarrylReesDJ]

Hey mate thanks for the video, i got to the DJM Firmware downloader screen but it just says "waiting for DJM 900 connection" and won't go any further, tried a different ethernet cable and connected everything properly but having no luck. Any ideas? TIA

[@vincelepeltier]

I'm having same problem. I have new macbook pro, but an ethernet adapter which i verify is working when hooked up to my router..however it's not turning green when hooked to the djm900, only yellow..

[@capeconsciousmedia]

@@vincelepeltier I have the same problem

[@MargoAusten]

@@capeconsciousmedia did someone figure this out already?

[@apollomedyabilisimteknoloji]

Run exe file as administrator and its done.

[@numerologylogic]

​@@vincelepeltier turn off your WiFi when you go to connect

Do you know what are the 3 buttons to get the service mode or test mode on the djm 900 nx?? thanks

[@alessandrodevoto5764]

hey man, could you do one for the 900NXS2? I'm looking at the manual and it says nothing on how to update...

[@TallestDJInUSA]

+Alessandro Devoto I learned how just by accident. Place the file on a usb pen drive and insert into send/return slot. Hold down the ON/OFF effects button + the Mid FX frequency button, then power up. It updates on its own from there. :)

[@PatPremier]

how do you get the mixer to link to the laptop?

[@zannyduko]

If you had a MacBook Pro, how would you update the firmware? Is it impossible or you need another cable?

[@Wouterferdinand]

Dj GG probably need a thunderbolt convert cable

[@Wouterferdinand]

Maybe usb will work as well, but can't tell, haven't got my mixer yet xd

[@anonash81]

i have a new macbook, and they dont have ethernet ports anymore. Is there any other way of connecting to the djm to update the firmware?

[@christianjackson]

No, this is the only way. Maybe borrow a friends? That's crazy that they don't come with ethernet ports!

[@zannyduko]

greggashley perhaps you should get a lan to USB adapter for the Mac.

[@numerologylogic]

turn off your WiFi when you go to connect

[@TheOfficialDayze]

I don't have the ethernet port on my retina? How I should do the update??

[@christianjackson]

+The Official Dayze get a USB ethernet adapter.

[@TheOfficialDayze]

+Christian Jackson USB ? Not the thunderbolt to ethernet adaptor?

[@TheOfficialDayze]

+Christian Jackson Ok thanks! :)

[@JayHTID96]

what wire is it from the mixer to Laptop mate ??

[@christianjackson]

Cat5

[@JayHTID96]

Christian Jackson ive got a mac and it has no cap 5 ethernet import

[@christianjackson]

Then you can't update. You will need an adapter or find another computer to use

[@Phen0mable]

Is the same procedure for djm850?

[@zannyduko]

Phen0mable you just need the usb a to b cable.
