Skybox F5s Usb problems

[dmmacvicar]

Have just received a Skybox F5s and im having trouble transferring my .list file into the box. When I try and upgrade by USB it says no file found. Tried two different sticks but same problem. I have also tried the LAN program but for some reason when I transfer the updated file over and view it, it shows up black. Has anyone experienced this problem before? I have done similar with S9,S11 & F3 so don't understand why this will not work on the F5s. As far as I know it has the latest Firmware installed.

If its saying file not found its usually an error with the name or file extension. Try entering manually.

1 On your pc click on the start menu
2 When the menu comes up, type computer in the search box and press enter
3 In the top left hand corner of the new screen that appeared click on organize
4 Now click on folder & search option
5 In the new menu that appears click on view
6 Scroll down the menu till you find Hide extensions for known file types and remove the tick next to it, then click apply

Now check the file that you was trying to upload to your box doesn't have a double file extension.
If the file does as I expect, then change it and upload it to your skybox now.
