I have been trying (and failing) all morning to try and download some apps onto my a6000. Couldnt get anywhere with the direct method via the camera itself (it keeps asking to adjust the time/date etc) so i thought i would try the Mac.

No luck there either.  After updating the firmware on the camera, i attempted to download the 'download' tool, which was fine - but then it fails to verify the camera, even though it is connected etc. The verify page just refreshes and i cannot proceed to the next stage.

I am rapidly losing faith in this...any ideas?

4 simple steps it says.....lol
