I wish we had a camera store

I'm afraid I am just going to give up. I have downloaded the file at least a dozen times, using two different internet browsers. I have download the file directly from Nikon website. The file will not open. I get a message to close all my applications, restart windows and try again. I have done this numerous times all with the same result, I am unable to open the file and nothing will extract. Thanks for all your help. Mike

As I recall, I bought the P1000 used. It already had the 1.4 firmware installed. I downloaded the file and I could not open that either.

The problem is that I can't open the file after its downloaded onto my pc.

The trick is, after extraction, copy the entire firmware folder to the SD card you are updating from. Normally you would just copy the update file to the SD card but the P1000 is different.

Thanks, did that at least 10 times. The .exe file won't open at all.

Do you have experience doing Nikon updates? It can be tricky. I have Nikon DSLRs, but no problem with updates - yet.

Not until this one. The program just won't extract. Any suggestions?

Anyone, besides me had any problems extracting the firmware from the dowloaded file from Nikon?

Gov. Greg Abbott didn’t have an answer for how he would eliminate all rape in Texas, but he did say that he wouldn’t sign an a******n exemption for rape or incest.

An absolute waste of humanity. Get rid of him, he's toxic!!

So you graduated elementary school, and got no further and now you are bragging about it as if it was an accomplishment.... Had you gone further, maybe graduated middle school then maybe you could keep up and the thread would make a bit more sense to you.

I have 4 degrees how many do you have?

This is the dumbest group of morons I have ever had the displeasure to interact with. No wonder bone spur got elected. Did any of your i***ts get past the 3rd grade??

Software

What is the best stand al one software? I do not need to catalog or do any heavy duty editing of photos. The Photoshop Elements that I had will no longer work and says it had to be updated. I know what that means- buy a monthly subscription to it. I do not do enough editing for that.

Don't laugh, but I downloaded Picasa 3 from Google years ago and I continue to use it now. It isn't very sexy, but for my use, it is perfect. You have to understand that Google does not update it, but the cost is right, free. Good luck.

Bridge Camera Recommendation

You can't go wrong with the Sony RX10 MIV. In fact, I sold all my Canon gear in order to fund the purchase of this camera. At 76 years old I am no longer comfortable carrying around a bunch of gear. Good luck!
