Sony Video Software For Mac

Sony has released Mac OS X Driver Loader to enable firmware update compatibility with Mac OS 10.13 High Sierra. Mac 10.13 users must run this driver loader BEFORE connecting your camera. Please Note: Mac OS 10.13 users must run “DriverLoader_1013” prior to ALL firmware updates. Run Mac OS X Driver Loader for 10.13 High Sierra 2. Once Driver Loader is finished Open the Firmware Update and follow all directions. Connect the camera via USB when the firmware instructs you to – and NOT before.

I tried to update my A7RIII version to 1.01 from 1.0 and I tried to download the Driver Loader for OS High Sierra (10.13) as the software indicated that I needed to before updating. The Driver Loader didn’t work on my MacBook Pro and I was able to update to 1.01 in spite of not being able to make the Driver Loader work. The problem I have still have is that I cannot see the small icon images of the A7RIII RAW files in the preview of my OS High Sierra, I have to hit the space bar and wait for each individual image to open in Preview to see what the image is. This is very time consuming obviously when dealing with hundreds of images.

Visual studio versions list. No problem for my A7RII Raw file images. Many thanks for the quick reply! This is my third a7 camera, so I am not unfamiliar with the firmware updating process and have done it successfully many times in the past.

I followed the steps that Sony lays out for High Sierra users (), carefully being sure to connect the camera, turn it on, and start the updater all in the right order. But when I do it that way, the updater (rather inexplicably) tells me that the camera is on and I need to turn it off. And when I do turn it off, and then on again, the connection is lost. I rechecked your Bulletproof guide, and I don’t see anything I’ve missed.

I’ve tried changing the order of connecting, turning on, and starting the updater, but when I do the connection is never recognized. I appreciate your optimism, but no matter what I’ve tried, I can’t get it to work. I just wish Sony would follow the example of every other camera manufacturer and stop requiring system level access to update a camera. It’s totally unnecessary and just causes problems — like this one. I am a new owner of the a7r3, so first time trying to update a Sony.

I’ve read your bulletproof guide and unplugging an external harddrive was the only point I needed to apply. However Ive not yet been able to begin any update.

Referring to the Sony instructions for installing the updater () I get to the point of pressing OK in the dialogue box once Ive connected the camera, and a folder should appear on the desktop. Internet security for mac os x 10.4.11. Only PMHOME appears when the camera is connected by no folder appears once I click ‘OK’.

Thank you for any ideas on what might be the problem Brian. Hi Brian, being on 10.13 High Sierra I have struggled a bit to achieve the updates. Indeed, good old habits made me believe the camera had to be unplugged before the firmware update. On High Sierra the process is slightly different: The DL110_1712a needs to be launched first, the camera needs to be on mass storage before clicking OK. Then without unplugging the camera the dmg with the firmware update can be launched (this is where my old habits failed me) I have updated the LA-EA3, SEL2470GM and SEL55f1.8z from an A7RII.

I hope this will help other users. Thib, I would greatly appreciate it if you could be more precise in the steps you are describing; specifically when you attach the camera, when you turn it on, etc. (In particular, your statement that “The DL110_1712a needs to be launched first, the camera needs to be on mass storage before clicking OK” is unclear as to exactly when the camera is connected to the computer and turned on.) So far, if I connect the camera and turn it on before running the firmware updater, it tells me I need to disconnect the camera and won’t proceed until I do. Which, if I understand what you are describing, doesn’t happen to you.
