K3S Firmware Update for Mac

stengrevics
I have downloaded the latest K3S Utility.  However, I don’t see an option for updating firmware on the Utility.  

I’m probably overlooking something simple.  Appreciate any suggestions.

73,

John

Fwd: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

stengrevics
Further to my earlier email:  The Utility does not run.  Perhaps incompatible with the latest MacOS Catalina?

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

Thanks Bill.  That’s really odd.  It won’t run on my MacBook Pro with Catalina same as yours.  

I assume you just double click it?

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

David Herring
I just downloaded the K3 Utility version 1.19.9.6 from the Elecraft website. I installed it on my macOS Catalina machine, double clicked it and it ran just fine.

Initially I thought I had recreated your problem, in that when I double-clicked seemingly nothing happened,  but I discovered that there is a “click to accept license terms and conditions” pane that appears under everything else on the desktop. Once I found that and accepted their terms, the app popped right up.

If you just installed this app, maybe dig around under things to see if it’s waiting for input from you somewhere.

Otherwise, a quick note to Elecraft support may be in order.  Also I think the author of the app may monitor this reflector and might respond at some point if we don’t get it going for you before long.

Hi David,

That box asking to accept terms doesn’t come up for me.

I’ve emailed tech support again (twice yesterday) - not holding my breath.

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

Elecraft mailing list
Just to make sure - you are trying the latest version of the utility, freshly downloaded from the web site, right? If not, then go to the website and download it. Only the latest version is Catalina compatible.

Now, exactly what happens when you install and try to run the Utility?

73!

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

David Herring
In reply to this post by stengrevics
John,

When you try to run the utility, has MacOS ever at any point popped up and warned you that you’re trying to run something downloaded from the Internet?

Also, will you right click on the app, choose “get info” and check that it is 22,545,264 bytes in size, and that is says it’s “kind” is “application?”

73,
David - N5DCH

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

In reply to this post by stengrevics
Hi John,
Does the K3 Utility menu appear at the top of the screen when you double click the app? Are you sure you’re clicking on the actual app and not the .ZIP file?
Have you tried a reboot? The most current version (1.19.9.6) should run fine on Catalina. 
David, W4SMT

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

stengrevics
Thanks to all for taking the time to help.  Here are answers to your questions:

Jack W6FB
Version 1.19.9.6
Several times it showed ”initiatializing” then nothing

David  N5DCH
Yes, warned about running something downloaded from the web.   I click Open, the app appears on the dock
Right click on the app:  Elecraft K3 Utility V1 19.9.6 -S/N 10755 on usb serial - A503xyao at 38400 bps

David  W4SMT
The K3 Utility menu appears but there is very little under it:  About K3 Utility, Services, Hide, Quit
I’ve rebooted countless times

Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

In reply to this post by stengrevics
What directory is the app located in? If on the desktop, move it to the Applications folder. In Catalina certain directories are restricted - you have to give permission to access files there. This sounds like the app is unable to access some of its resources.

By the way, you have two of us who are associated with Elecraft involved now. W4SMT is the application author. He knows the app inside and out.

73,
Jack, W6FB

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

That shouldn’t really matter … I just downloaded a fresh copy, and ran it straight from the Downloads folder.

Good to have the experts on board!

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

David Herring
In reply to this post by Grant Youngman-2
OK, from these answers we can deduce that the app is actually running. The question is where the pane is...

John, I’ve had this happen to me before on other things…so launch the utility, go up to the top and under Elecraft K3 Utility, and choose “About K3 Utility”

Does the “About" pane show up anywhere? And does it bring with it the actual utility pane with it, by chance?

Like I say, this has happened before where opening something else in an app makes the app show up. <shrug> Worth a shot.

Regarding location of the app, yes it absolutely should be in Applications, but I just launched mine from Downloads and it still works. But moving it to Applications would be well advised.

73,

David - N5DCH

The Utility pane does NOT show up.

Tried it from Applications but, same result.

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

David Herring
It feels like the utility pane is just simply “hidden” (one can do that with command-h, why one would want to I don’t know ;-). ) Anyway, when the Utility is running, is there an icon with a dot under it in the icon bar (presumably) at the bottom of your screen? If there is, click on it and see if that would bring the Utility pane up.

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

David,

Yes, the K3 icon appears on the icon bar with a dot beneath it.  Clicking it makes K3 Utility appear at the top of the screen.  Unfortunately, there’s nothing useful there.

Re: K3S Firmware Update for Mac

In reply to this post by David Herring
David,

If I try to click on anything in the Utility pane, it immediately disappears.

The lower box shows:

Elecraft K3 Utility OS X Rev 1.19.9.6
OS X Version 10.15.4
K3 MCU Revision 05.60. RS - 232 Speed 38400 bps

If there is, click on it and see if that would bring the Utility pane up.
