It depends on the update and region, most major update like from ICS to JellyBean is compulsory to use PC companion in my region (Singapore/Malaysia), while some minor update sometimes allow OTA updates. So far I face no issue on the PC companion, try to reinstall your PC companion or reinstall your phone driver on your pc.
" Xperia ZR can recognise a 64GB MicroSD card? A shop assistant told me if I put a brand new 64GB card in, and the phone asks to format, and clicking OK, the phone could recognise it"
Yes, currently Xperia phone only support 32GB max for NTFS format and 64GB max for FAT32 format. But you will be only be able to store maximum 4GB per file since it is the limitation of FAT32 storage, which means you will not able to store any file that is larger than 4GB size in your 64GB SDcard.

AnonD-79514, 31 Jul 2013it's better than they did not waste any money on a fail! An... moreWhen Xbox first came in against Nintendo and playstation, that's what people thought, why develop games for Xbox...
Today things are different.
Windows phone has been around for very long and it was a leader in innovating the smart phone worlds through windows mobile, but they were never truly user-friendly oriented... And this is why they couldn't compete.
LG and Sony are not making a smart choice or a dumb one, they are simply focusing on mass production and offering what they think the masses want...
Once windows phone and windows for pc will have unified stores and once they polish and address the interface issues customers want, then you will see their market share rise and become a decent 10-15% in most markets... Not because it is a war for or against an OS, but simply because they have the potential to provide us users with decent quality software and hardware, and the simple diversity of our tastes will do the rest.
