Q: I cant update superdrive to 3.0

Hello imhereagain,

Thank you for the details of the issue you experiencing with the SuperDrive Firmware Update 3.0.  I found an article with some useful information that I think might help. 

I recommend reviewing the full article below, but this specifically stood out to me for the issue you described:

This update requires that the following EFI Firmware updates be installed first:

iMac EFI Firmware Update 1.4

Mac mini EFI Firmware Update 1.2

MacBook EFI Firmware Update 1.4

MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 1.8

Note: Some USB and FireWire devices may prevent firmware updates from installing correctly; disconnect non-essential devices and use only an Apple keyboard and mouse to apply the update.

I also recommend reviewing the Additional Information section to find out if your Mac requires this update and if the update is successfully installed.  You can find the full article here:

I recommend continuing with the following article if the error still appears after following those steps:

Mac OS X v10.6.4 and later: Unable to Install SuperDrive Firmware Update 3.0

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Best,
