Can't update Firmware on KDL-40EX503

[Bluefusion]

I thought my sony TV would update the software automactically, but on checking My sony KDL-40EX503 Tv is currently running out-of-date Software version PKG4.025EUL-01061, so I am trying to update this to the current version PKG4.085EUL-0108 shown on the Sony website,

I am using an Apple Mac and have downloaded the software update using both Safari & Firefox.

I download the sony_tvupdate_2010_0485_eul_.zip file and this unzips to make a folder called: sony_dtv0FA00A00A0A0_0002010 and inside this is a single file: 00020100_01e50000.bin

I move this folder to my USB stick which plays my movies and other files fine on my TV, but when I insert this into the TV I keep getting the message - NO APPLICABLE UPDATE DATA WAS FOUND.

Any ideas!

I have exactly the same problem mate.

alos using a MAC and getting the same files extracted.

I'm using a Kingston 4GB USB memory stick and it says its FAT32 formatted (file get info from finder menu).

I will try reformatting my memory stick or using another if I can find one and let you know how that goes.

ha - my mistake, I was already on latest firmware.

subsequently used the USB stick to play media (AVI files) with no problems.
