Will that upgrade from 2.0 to 2.2? From what I read this will not work for me. :(

I downloaded the file and the readme.txt says:

READ ME

THIS UPGRADE IS FOR NORTH AMERICAN 2016 FORD/LINCOLN MODELS WITH SYNC3 V1.0 OR V 1.1 FACTORY NAVIGATION ONLY.
THIS WILL UPGRADE FROM VERSIONS 1.0/1.1 TO VERSION 2.2
YOU WILL NEED A FAT32 OR EXFAT FORMATTED 2GB OR MORE USB FLASH DRIVE
USING A WINDOWS BASED COMPUTER UNZIP THE UPGRADE FILE TO THE ROOT FOLDER OF FLASH DRIVE
YOU WILL END UP WITH AUTOINSTALL FILE AND SYNCMYRIDE FOLDER IN THE ROOT OF THE USB DRIVE
TAKE FLASH DRIVE TO YOUR VEHICLE AND REMOVE ANYTHING PLUGGED INTO THE USB PORTS
START YOUR VEHICLE AND INSERT UPGRADE FLASH DRIVE
UPGRADE PROCESS WILL BEGIN AND TAKE APPROXIMATELY 15-20 MINUTES
ONCE UPDATE IS DONE (A MESSAGE WILL APPEAR) YOU MAY REMOVE THE FLASH DRIVE AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF
LEAVE THE VEHCILE OFF FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES AND RESTART
YOU WILL SEE THAT YOU NOW ARE RUNNING VERSION 2.2
THE BUILT IN NAVIGATION MAY TAKE SEVERAL MINUTES TO START BACK UP

THIS IS USED AT YOUR OWN RISK AND YOU TAKE ALL RESPONSBILITY FOR ITS USE

NAVIGATION MAPS DO NOT GET UPGRADED WITH THIS UPDATE

Yes, it will work to go from 2.0 to 2.2. I did it on my 17 and on a 17 Edge. Both worked without issue. Jason didn't officially test it, so therefore he doesn't certify it, hence the statement in the text file. Like I said before, there are small fixes between 2.0 and 2.2. No major features added. Personally I noticed a slight improvement in voice prompts in the Sync Voice Command. Not as big of a change as there is when going 1.0/1.1 to 2.2.

Forgive me for this. I just bought a 2016 Expedition with 1.0 (no navigation). How do I go about getting CarPlay on it? Thanks so much. I've searched and think that I am just missing some information.

Please take a picture of your radio and post it. The Non-Nav's can be a little more tricky. Need to confirm what radio you have before I can give you the correct info.

Also, there is a possibility you might need a new hub. That has not been confirmed yet. Waiting to see what mdntblu's results are after his update.

As requested.

Also when reading the read me file attached to the download, it says to use a windows based computer. Is this possible to use with a mac?

DO NOT USE THE DOWNLOAD I posted above if you do not have Nav. It is for NAV only equipped vehicles. Sorry, I assumed NAV because you said Limited. Most Limited have NAV that I have seen. My bad.

Several people have had no issues doing it from a Mac, but far more people have done it from PC's. Same stuff applies. Must format FAT32. Read the Text file.

Sync 3 2.2 NON-Nav Update Install::
