how to update prusaslicr when fw flashed from a different computer
I have Mac and Ubuntu systems. I wasn't able to see the usb port on my Mac to update firmware, so I used the ubuntu box to update firmware.
Now when I slice and generate gcode on my Mac (saved to SD card), my MK3S says that the g-code
is sliced for a different printer. How do I get my mac copy of prusaslicr in sync with the firmware version installed on the printer (3.9.0)

I think you have to start by using the right section of the forum (you are in the Prusa Mini section) secondly click the button in PrusaSlicer and marked by the red arrow and select the right printer (MK3S)

AFAIK PrusaSlicer neither knows nor cares what version of firmware you are running, it just wants the details of your printer is bed size, max acceleration etc.

For recent versions of Prusa Slicer and those that have been updating the built in profiles the start gcode section in Prusa Slicer will contain (for Prusa Printers MK3 models at least) something along the lines of :-
M862.3 P "[printer_model]" ; printer model check
M862.1 P[nozzle_diameter] ; nozzle diameter check
M115 U3.9.0 ; tell printer latest fw version
This coupled with additions to the MK3 Printers firmware, allow the printer to warn if gcode has not been sliced for that particular printer/nozzle combination and if the firmware is out of date.
If you want to remove such warnings you can save a copy of the printer profile with those lines removed or commented out and use that to Slice with.

Ooops, "M115 U3.9.0 ; tell printer latest fw version" didn't know it could do that.
