When trying to transferIget a message "There are no devices selected for transfer. Select at least one device in the transfer dialog".There is nothing to select in the transfer dialog. Communicationhas been proven as i updated the OS on the panel using the USB master to master cable. Anyideas?

The attached document says that comapability is not tested it think. I may need to do a reinstall since removal of SP1 is not an option on this PC.

Select at least one device in the transfer dialog." Also after attemting once, all of the transfer menu is greyed out.To try again I need to close the project and re-open.See screen shots. Thanks.

Here you can select desired cable (method of transfer) etc. But also at the left, you see the panel (project) you want to transfer. In your screenshot this is a white empty box. just wondering, can you try to start a new project. Can you download little test project to HMI? Perhaps the following link might help: how can you reset WinCC flexible to the original status of the last installation? Try to go to Options -> delete temporary files and then compile project and try to download. Best regards, Wizard

Just for check. Go to device setting and please ensure that firmware is the latest revision set in the project. I know that if you set older firmware versions download also is not possible.
