Updating HERO3+ and HERO4 Camera
Software from a Memory Card Reader
The following explains how to update the camera software in your GoPro HERO3+ or
HERO4 camera using a memory card reader rather than a USB cable. You’ll need a
memory card and a memory card reader.
Step 1 – Insert your SD card into your HERO3+ or HERO4 and then power on
the camera. This initializes the card for use on a GoPro camera.
Step 2 – Remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into the memory
card reader.
Step 3 – Plug the memory card reader into the computer (unless it is already
plugged in or built into the computer).
When GoPro Studio recognizes that the SD card a window will appear instructing you to
reinsert the SD card into your camera and then connect your camera to the computer via
USB.
With the camera connected via USB, click the OK button.
At this point, if you have a HERO4 camera the update procedure proceeds as described
previously, in the section called, “Updating HERO4 Camera Software
”.
If you’re updating a HERO3+, you’ll be taken to the GoPro Support website, where you’ll
be guided through the rest of the camera software update process.
