    For my MAC users. Max sure you reformat your flash drive to FAT. Not EXFat. Also when you reformat you have to erase everything on the flash drive so save the individual files, reformat to FAT then move the files back onto the flash drive.

    I had so many issues now fixed. 2014 Jeep Cherokee, stock software . Trying to update Jan 2024. Initially tried using my 256g flash drive with software loaded. The Jeep wouldn’t recognize it. Found an old USB 2.0 sandisk cruzer glide 16 gb. Did a quick reformat to fat32. It errored out 3 times. Asking me to
    Remove and reinsert flash drive.
    I had to do a long full reformat that took multiple hours. While that was going on I turned off the car .
    When the flash drive completed its long reformat I directly exported the zip files to the usb stick. Started the Jeep beck up and after a couple min it asked me to put the flash drive back in . Put the freshly reformatted USB flash drive with the directly exported zip files into the usb port. Updated first try no issues. Hope that helps

    I loaded per guidance updated from 18.43.01 to 18.45.01 things were fine. Decided to get the new HERE map program. Once that loaded which took a couple of hours to complete seemed fine on a neighborhood drive. Wife then drove her Cherokee to a store 25 miles away and had issues with some of the Apps that were on the system prior to the upload. The Travel link system seems to be the app with the most problems. The Fuel Prices does not run anylonger, and when she was on the interstate system told her speed limit was 45 MPH. Back to the drawing board..

    I tried to go to the website but it says my car is up to date, I went into the dealer screen to check and it is not 18.45.1 but an earlier version. Is there anyway to find the download for this version? Left a like on the video hopefully I can find this download soon.

    I have been trying to get this update on my RA4 radio for the longest time. Neither uconnect nor my dealership could find the update as the uconnect website says that my radio is up to date even though it’s on 17.11.07. As expected, I still have the navigation and clock issues. Do you by any chance have the files for the 18.45.01 update? You would save trouble for a lot of people.
