My A74 is on version 2.0 firmware. I have tried to update to V4.0 but when I try the following message comes up
'There is no media inserted in Slot 1 (there is), there is no update file in the media (there is), or the file is damaged' I have downloaded the firmware twice and same problem.
To confirm:
SD Card has been formatted in camera.
File is exactly the same file name
File is in the root directory of the card
I have had no problems previously as I updated up to version 2.
Think I must be doing something obviously wrong but just cannot figure out what.
For info, file downloaded on a MacBook
THose are the file hash calculated with the file I've successful used to upgrade from 3.02 to 4.00:

If it's the same, try another (quality) SD card.
Otherwise I don't know.. with sony, sometime a factory reset work without any reason, but first save all your settings.
