Difficulty with loading version OS2

losackmd2 · Post by **losackmd2** » Sun Jul 09, 2017 11:50 pm

I have downloaded 2.59 GB of data to my IMAC OS 10.12.5
from the KORG PA4x download of version 2
Pa4X/Operating System version 2.0 PKG divided version (for slow connections)
I have a fast connection so where is that link???
I downloaded the items
this is the folder
Pa4X_OS2_UPD
inside it is
Pa4X v2 User Resources
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd
Pa4X_v200_documentation
I shut down the PA4x
I pressed intro1 and start then calibrated it till complete
I dragged the items above UPD not PKG
but the Message on my KORG said something like awaiting PKG files!!!??????
on Mac OS 10 the PKG is an exec file and does nothing
I inserted the USB that has the 3 upper mentioned folders
Pa4X v2 User Resources
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd
Pa4X_v200_documentation
I hit OK
I went to the lower left corner and got my USB F and opened it
the folder
PA4x_OS2_UPD is there
I open it
the three folders above appear
Pa4X v2 User Resources
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd
Pa4X_v200_documentation

if I hit the top folder I get 2 folders
I get KEYBOARDSET &
STYLE
if I press on either I get empty space
on both

what now????????????

why is this so badly explained

please help as I am irate
thank you

it looks like you may have selected the wrong download?..

my pa4x required pkg, i downloaded the pkg update and the files all have the .pkg extension...

perhaps you should attempt another download..?

please someone
give me the right download link for OS2

Korg makes this almost impossible to find

am I supposed to open keyboard style
folder which gives me
USER01.PRF
USER02.PRF
USER03.PRF
USER04.PRF
USER05.PRF
USER06.PRF
and STYLE gives me
FAVORITE01.STY
FAVORITE02.STY
FAVORITE03.STY
and drag these to the USB flash drive?

or
the second folder gives me
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.001
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.002
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.003
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.004
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.005

Hi GL

It doesn't matter if you download the update as 5 individual zip files or one large zip file (all downloads are on the same Korg web page - see links below) - the end product is the same - when unzipped you get:-
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.001
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.002
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.003
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.004
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.upd.005

That's all you need - DON'T OPEN THESE

Copy these to USB
Then follow the enclosed instructions (PDF) line by line and all will work fine.

Note: if your keyboard doesn't recognise these UPD files during the update you will need the PKG version (we all had to determine this) in which case you will get:-
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.pkg.001
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.pkg.002
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.pkg.003
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.pkg.004
Pa4X_OS_and_Resources_v200.pkg.005

If you are unsure about where the instructions are - they are also here:- http://www.korg.com/us/support/download ... /516/3615/

Full download link for UPD:- http://www.korg.com/us/support/download ... /516/3616/
Full download link for PKG:- http://www.korg.com/us/support/download ... /516/3617/

Get back to us if you still need help.

Cheers

Pete

Only the second folder has the update files.
I don't have a Mac, but I'm assuming the procedure is identical.
Of course you do have to de-compress the files, using a program like Winzip.
I put the files on the root directory of the USB drive, inserted it into the 4X.
Then Hold intro 1 and power on, until the calibration screen appears.
Everything else, expect a reboot later on is automatic.

Woops, Pete and I posted at the same time. At least we said pretty much the same thing.

Yeah - thanks Don

GL:- Just double-click the download ".zip" files and the Mac will unzip them.
