Hi, I got a long standing problem with the update MacBook Pro-EFI-firmware-updater 2.6 which is constantly offered in the App Store -> Updates
After doing the update (no error messages) and the necessary reboot the update keeps reappearing in the App Store Updates. This goes for both Lion and Mountain Lion.
Anybody have a solution?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion
I pulled this from the /var/log/install.log

Any luck on this?? I'm having the same problem
Unfortunately not.
But I've resorted to just hiding the update.
Here is a link on how to do that. Can't figure out why I didn't think of this one before :-)
