I just received my new A9 in the mail. It has v5 firmware installed, so I diligently download the latest firmware updater. I got it going on my MacBook (which has the latest OS), connected the camera when asked, but nothing happens. The USB screen comes up on the camera, but nothing else happens. It’s really got me stumped. Any suggestions?
