    Default USB required to find JB update?

    I updated to the latest version of Kies.
    I started it on my S3, then typed the displayed URL with port into my web browser.
    It asked if I wanted to create a shortcut, I clicked yes.
    It never said I have an update available.

    When is it supposed to?

    Just for fun, I turned on USB debugging, and connected the USB cable while kies was running.
    Likewise, it didn't tell me JB was available.

    What am I missing?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Are you using Kies Air? You shouldn't be typing a url into your browser.

    Just hook you phone up directly to your computer, use the regular Kies, not Kies Air.

    It looks like I was missing that there's a kies for PC which is different than kies on my android.
    Sorry.
    I'm downloading that now.
