Cannot Update Emulator's Firmware and Connectivity Kit

[brickviking]

Me too, it would seem. I have 32-bit Vista, I'd downloaded 20161208, installed it, and decided to try upgrading the firmware, but I found the same problems as the OP. Clicking on "Check for updates" in the emulator gave me immediate "Can't connect ....", presumably because of ftp issues. Firing up CK at least got me latest firmware, for all the good that was going to do. In addition, I noted that my Virtual Prime didn't turn up in the "Calculators" window in the Update window. I had a feeling this could have been part of the issue, as I don't have a physical Prime. Hey, I've got a 50G, what do I need a Prime for?

So, if I wanted "whatever's in the latest firmware" installed in my 20161208 emulator, I'm out of luck?
