Can you get to another computer and try it all over again? A lot of us have updated with no problems...a s you are having an issue directly with both the M8 AND M9 in terms of using a image transfer by card, I again think it is a computer issue. One additional question.... and I am not a Mac user..... YOU said you also have some model of Canon camera. Can you read THOSE image files on this computer? Lastly... have you ever tried to save some file ( makes no difference what, except not an image file, say a file from a word processor) to your card from inside some application? Does THAT work to both save it and read it back? The 512MB card is a SD ( NOT HC) card, and should work in any reader. More lastly.. try a new card... it may be that this particular SDHC card is having a problem all by itself...and making us think it is some other fault.... YOU can format the card in the computer, but format it again in the M8. More and more lastly,.... someone suggested that your memory card is in the locked position.... have you checked that? Most problems are understandable... if you look in the right place..... The problem is to find the place-.....

(This process still does not work for me with either of the SDHC cards.) Then, I follow Leica's instructions and drag the unzipped (my Mac automatically unzips this file) m8-2_014.upd file to the mounted disk, i.e. the M8 formatted 514MB SD card. However, a Finder message pops up saying: The item "m8-2_014.upd" could not be moved because "NO NAME" could not be modified. NO NAME is the disk (card) name. Any ideas what to try now?
