FRDM-KL25Z Wont firmware update, doesn't appear as a flash drive (Mac

Morning all,

As the title suggests, when I connect my FRDM-KL25Z to my mac or win7 pc it doesn't appear as a flash drive anymore. It will appear as bootloader if I hold the reset button whilst plugging it in. This happened after I tired to load my code on to it via the mbed website. The code was a basic keyboard I.E. push button it types a character.

It is running firmware 1.09 which isn't the newest. But when I follow the instructions on the info link thats in the flash drive to update it. It doesn't update the firmware .bin file just disappears on reboot.

Can anyone suggest what else I can try to get it updated and running correctly.

Regards, Hughesy
