IP Camera 4300 upgrade firmware

[hisham.khreisat]

Dears,

When I tried to upgrade the 4300 Cameras from 1.0.1 to 1.2.1, I opened the GUI of the CAM SETUP>>Administration>>Firmware>>> then when I upload the image and click upgrade, I got a message "ActiveX initialization failed", I tried to make it on IE8, Google Chrome, and FireFox. and I got same message on all these browers.

If anyone has an idea about a solution for this tell me please.

Thanks,

In your internet explorer go to Tools>options>security>Custom and allow all active X options. Due the upgrade then reset the security options back to default.

Also you can upgrade it direcly if you  are using version 6.3.0 or 6.3.1 , from VSMC you will find the path to upgrade Cisco IP cameras.

Thanks,

Hi Hisham,

I have seen this active x message when upgrading in the past.  Please try adding the camera URL http:// as a trusted site under IE Tools -> Internet Options -> Secturity -> Local Intranet.

If this has answered your question, please mark the question as answered.

Thank you,

Jim
