Is this another time that we have to do everything manually again?

I downloaded the firmware and put the files is Connectivity folder under Firmware in the sub-folder marked PrimeG2.

The connectivity kit looks there for the updates.

Note: Ensure that you also DL the companion Connectivity Kit for the Firmware update (there is also a Virtual Calculator update too).

I apologize up front for my continued dumb-ness in this situation.

I finally jumped through all the Mac OS hoops to get the latest HP Connectivity Kit installed. I am now successfully running with HPCK 2.1.14425 (2020 1 16).

If I use the HPCK to check for updates, it reports that no updates are available.

Based on the advice quoted above, I returned to the HPCalc web site and looked here:
https://www.hpcalc.org/prime/pc/

I see there an entry for HP Prime Firmware 2.1.14425 (2020-01-16) right under the entry for the Mac OS HP Connectivity Kit. However, the contents of that .ZIP file are:
Code:

---------                     ------- 
 38882663                     14 files

These files appear to be the files for the Prime G1 calculator. There is no HPPrime_OS.img file, which I believe would be the one for the Prime G2 calculator.

Am I missing something? Is is that the update for the Prime G2 has not yet been posted, or has been removed? Any advice or comments would be very welcome!
