A friend just upgraded my QMX with his Mac laptop. ?He brought his laptop to breakfast and it wouldn’t connect. He took it home and used his older Mac Air and it updated easily. ?He can’t explain why but says this is not unusual. ?His newer Mac laptop works fine for his QMX. ?So keep trying. Maybe try a different lap top or a different USB cable.?

I spent ages trying to get mine going too. Couple of tips.
1. Can you see QMX on file explorer?
2. Can you hear pop in headphones when you turn it on?
3. If Yes. Go yo QRP Labs website, drag the latest firmware file across, unzip and place in the QMX folder in file explorer.
That worked for me but I don’t understand why the boot loader failed to function.
