I have a Nikon D-700 I downloaded the firmware version 1.04/1.03 to a formatted card with the .bin file but when I go to the menu to update, I have the yes button and I can see the previous and newer firmware versions but the menu will not allow me to select it. I am stuck in the yes bar and it will not go any further. Is the camera damaged or is there another way to update this?

Just wondered if you actually formatted the card on the camera first and not via a computer.Card needs format via camera only.Then add the bin file.– jomicoJan 27, 2019 at 12:53

I formatted by camera then copied the .bin file and I tried formatting on the computer (FAT32) and neither method worked.– James GilmanJan 28, 2019 at 16:34

The right hand side selector does work for other menu options, just not in the firmware upgrade options– James GilmanJan 28, 2019 at 18:02

You should not be pressing the selector button. It's asking you to press the OK button, and that is at the bottom left.

Formatting cards works the same way, you can click the select until the last step, then you have to click OK. Prevents you from mindlessly clicking and reformatting a card.– MikeW ♦Jan 30, 2019 at 2:04
