Hey everyone, 

I hope you can help me. I've just recently inherited a Leica M9 and M6 and a few lenses. I'm having issues updating the firmware to the most recent. It currently is on 1.138 and my MAC does not like trying to add the file to the SD card to update the camera. This is just one issue.

My main issue is this:

Taking photos I get the following image previews:

When I take the SD card out and look at on my computer, it shows there are files but they all show up as 0kb files. 

Any ideas?

Welcome here,

Had you formatted the SD card in your M9 ?

I would first look to and start with the card being the issue. What brand and size card were you using? Next I would simply try a 8 or 16 MB card, after formatting in the camera.
