Of course I spent over 6 hours waiting for the download, converting it to two of my USB sticks, reformatting my USB's and finally going out to do the update...still errors when I put it in the vehicle. Now this morning I cannot re-download the update...:explode:

*edit*
Of course I think its an issue of not reading instructions...forgot to put the licence file in the Sync3file on the USB. Was outside. So I guess tonight after work I get to have some more fun...Still is odd we cannot download the update, or did Ford only allow one download?

Go to the email you received about your order and there is a link to re-download the files.

Had the sam Error 05 happen to me today. Can’t count how many hours I have spend downloading, unzipping, reformatting, etc. Super frustrating and no updates. I downloaded the file again tonight after getting the initial 05 error. Unzipped it and downloaded it to the thumb drive. Got the same message as before. Any ideas??

OS X or Windows? What does the file structure look like on the USB drive? Make sure you didn't un-TAR any of the individual packages within /SyncMyRide.

I tried it both ways. Tried OS X first and then Windows with same result. Other than copying the files from the computer to the thumb drive I did nothing to corrupt them.

Looks like somehow I am one of the lucky ones with the update already installed. Build date was early April

Did you format the flash drive with exFAT file system?

That I did not do. Could that be the problem?
That is likely one of your problems, In addition I don't see the license file in the SyncMyRide folder (XXX-14G424-XX.TAR.GZ ) .. That's the "Error 05 " message... One last thing, its best to use a 32gb USB 3.0 stick as a 16gb is cutting it close..

I am using a 32 Gb 3 thumb, but will look into the missing file and redo the format again. Thanks for your input.

I was able to load successfully this morning. I just checked the file names and sizes and they match exactly Josh's from the first post in this thread. If you get your stick to match his, you should be good to go!

Did the exFat format and made sure the license was in the file and it seems to work now. I don’t have time to actually do the update tonight, but it has recognized the update and asked if I wanted to proceed so it looks like it works. Thanks for your input and guidance.

Is there a way to do the update without actually having the truck run, like in accessory mode?

How did you keep it from shutting off after 10 mins or so?

I did mine when driving back from the beach last weekend. I was surprised how long it took.
