Trying to upgrade PW 11 gen to 5.16.4

I have always downloaded and installed updates manually to my PW 11th generation. I have 5.16.3.1 on it now. Never had an issue.

It will not take the new update, 5.16.4 either by the MTP Android protocol software or by dropping the file in the root of the Kindle. I get an error either way.

Currently my Kindle still shows on my Mac as a separate drive.

Amazon help solutions are worthless.

Any suggestons?


UPDATE: I was trying to install the wrong version of 5.16.4. All is well now that I downloaded and installed the correct one.
