An updated firmware has been sent to Push. If the update went well, your Push should be asking you to press Select. Please do so and check whether Push is working as expected. If it is, you can now simply close this lesson.

If things aren't working as expected, the rest of this lesson shows how to deal with a failed firmware update. You can also read about Push firmware updates in a $Link knowledge base article. <http://www.ableton.com/articles/push-firmware-release-notes/>

If a problem occurs during the update process, don't panic. It is always possible to restore Push's firmware. In general, consider the following steps to reduce the potential for error:

-> Make sure Push is the only MIDI device connected.
-> Don't run the update on a computer with low battery.
-> Make sure you have a stable USB connection. The cable shouldn't be too long. It's best to connect Push directly to your computer, rather than via a USB hub.
