Firmware and Software

Introduction

Here are some notes for people new to these ideas.  When talking about Bose products:

Firmware

This is software in the physical device (e.g. S1 Pro, ToneMatch Mixer, L1® Power Stand). 

For the S1 Pro system firmware updates can be downloaded and installed using a Windows or macOS computer from the Bose Updater

For ToneMatch Mixers and L1® products firmware updates can be downloaded and installed using a Windows or macOS computer from this Downloads site.

App

For the S1 Pro system this is software that runs on an IOS or Android device (e.g. phone or tablet) - The Bose Connect App

Download and install Bose Connect App

  • Unlock the full potential of your product.
  • Free app compatible with most Apple and Android™ systems
  • Easily connect your S1 Pro with your mobile device
  • Keep your S1 Pro up-to-date with the latest software
  • Use two S1 Pros in party mode or stereo

macOS Issues

[Filename] can't be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed

If you see "[Filename] can't be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed" message displayed

Mac OSX users may see this message when trying to install a Bose app. If this message appears, try the following:

Mac users may need to hold the Control key (Ctrl) when opening the file.

Various versions of the Mac OS cannot identify Bose as a developer. The Mountain Lion version of OS X (10.8) includes a feature called Gatekeeper to protect users from installing applications of non-Apple identified developers. The Mavericks version of OS X (10.9.5) temporarily cannot identify Bose as a developer as well.

To open the application, follow these steps:

  • Press and hold the Control key while clicking on the application icon
    • Note: Do not use Launchpad to do this. Launchpad doesn’t allow you to access the shortcut menu

In the menu that appears, select Open at the top of the list

A confirmation window will appear. Select Open

Without Control click:

S1 Pro System

S1 Pro  This information is applicable to the S1 Pro system

Please ensure that your S1 Pro System is fully charged and connected to AC power when you do the firmware update.

Bose Updater PC/MAC

S1 Pro System updates can be obtained by using your PC or MAC computer. Navigate to the Bose Updater. The update requires a USB cable.

USB A to Micro USB cable

Connect USB Micro USB cable to the Service port


If you purchased your S1 Pro System prior to May 10, 2018 (North America/Europe) or July 2, 2018 (other regions), you must update your firmware using the Bose Updater. Then you can connect to the Bose Connect App.

  • On your computer, open a web browser and go to btu.bose.com. Keep your web browser open throughout this process
  • Review the Bose Updater terms of use, then click "Accept and Continue" if you'd like to run the updater

  • Connect a USB cable from the computer to the SERVICE jack on your product
  • Click "Apply Changes." (Note: If no update is available, the updater shows your product is up to date)
  • Once the system has been successfully updated, disconnect your product from the computer
Trouble Shooting

We have had one report where the Bose Updater tool would not install correctly from the website. The customer had to temporarily disable Avast Antivirus Software to allow the software to run.
