    FIXED!!!!!! For those who's Hero 3+ still doesn't update:
    This was the most AGGRAVATING thing ever, but I figured it out...
    1. Download the Update.zip file (pref firmware & wifi update)
    2. Unzip the Update.zip file
    3. Copy the 4 separate files you find from the Update folder into the SD card
    4. AND!!!! Copy the Update folder (containing all 4 files) to your SD card
    Seems redundant but it worked for me after weeks of troubleshooting. Hopefully that works for you!

I switched to my wife's MAC and did the update manually for the firmware and WiFi and it finally worked. I don't know exactly what was going wrong but I'm sure it had to do with the file extensions.

    Hi rapidtronics! I am having major issues with updating my Hero 3+. I have followed your instructions in the video, but when I go to GoPro's website, their pages through the process are not acting like what's seen in your video. I have been trying to update it all day and nothing is working.
    I have deleted and reformatted the micro sd card, I have tried hard resetting the GoPro, and completing the wifi/password and firmware updates separately and nothing seems to work.
    If I do the request to update the wifi/password and firmware seperately, the download optional will turn blue and let me download the files, but if I try to do the update with both options selected the download button remains greyed out and doesn't do anything. When I do it separately and put the files on the sd card and insert it into the GoPro, the update picture never comes up and the GoPro just goes to the main screen like I'm about to use it.
    I've tried calling GoPro customer service 5 times today and each time was about 30-40 minutes of hold time, with no luck in getting in touch with a tech support rep.
    What am I missing? Anyone, please help!!

      I had a problem with mine too but I figured out that I deleted the update folder in go pro/sd card and when you have your unzipped files called update do not move the folder called update take only the insides of this folder and transfer to go pro do not put in a folder just moved over in sd along side of the other folders

      3-Click on Product Updates
      4-Look for Hero3
      5-Click on Update your camera manually
      And that should change it to 15-digit.
      Hope it works
