RX10M4 download problem with imaging edge desktop

[EricRX10M4]

I have updated RX10-M4 to V2 firmware.

But when my camera's WiFi attempts to connect to Router address, it never makes it.

I don't see any way to specifically pair camera with Imaging Edge Desktop (IED), which is probably the cause of the problem, nor can I see anything in writing online.

What am I doing wrong?

Where/how can I update IED to latest version?

What version of Image Edge are you running? I'v only recently downloaded and mine is ver:1.0.00.12040 which is probably the latest.

Download here:

Mine is V1.0.00.12110. Probably not a lot of difference on W10.

This might help...........

I just cannot see/read how to make the RX10M4 shake hands with Imaging Edge Desktop.

Have to agree with you Eric, the most annoying thing I have tried to do in years! It seems so complicated and like you I cannot get the camera to recognise anything or anything to recognise the camera even though it says it's connected to my WiFi.

And as for the PlayMemories thingy, I downloaded it and found that after a three day "trial" I would be billed £12 a month for it!! Who's kidding who around here?

Please Sony, get some decent instructions out there that Mr Normal can understand and follow.

I am using the helpguide.sony.net/  which also lack clarity on the subject.

Oh and this Forum is a pain to have to sign into every time with the idiot boxes! Why can't we stay signed in??

There, moan for the year!

Further to my last post, the Sony PlayMemories Home should be downloaded from Sony website  not from the App Store which is a Chinese, payable chat/video thingy!! Free for three days then. £12.99/month!!

Thanks for the warning about the Chinese website.

I think I'll give up on Imaging Edge Desktop for now, as it is irritating.  Previously, when I was V1, I downloaded Play Memories from Sony, only for it to gather up all my photos from my hard drive, and take up a massive amount on my 'C' which is SSD. So I scrubbed that, upgraded to V2 and tried Imaging Edge Deskktop - to no avail.

One of the attractive features of the RX10M4, for me, was the ability to transfer the files by WiFi - my hopes now sadly dashed for the time being.

What other non-Sony options are there to consider, I wonder? 

[cheddarman]

Huh, I'm thinking of giving up the RX10Mk4 as I am really struggling to get decent bird close-ups!!

Yes I have found that with the PlayMemories, very annoying, and also can't get anywhere with Edge!

Sony seem reluctant to help😱😱

Hi

Does anyone out there have any information on Capture One Express, as Imaging Edge is a complete let-down?
