    when backing up your data select your backup type,,,,,,,,,,,
    1: add new file
    2: name the file,,,,,goto save icon and save file name
    3: now select the filename you created,,,,,,,,you will be asked " are you sure to backup to the file " ,,,, press ok,,,,,,,your data will be backed up to usb.

    hi guys im trying to load new patch, im still having problems saving my channel list!! i wiped my memory still, reformatted to fat 32, i put memo into sb 6000 goto s/w/back up, user database, go down to usb0 (root) then go over to add new file i save it under (channel list which i typed in) then go to the save icon (floppy disc icon) but the file name doesnt come up to save?? so i cant
    ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SAVE....the only way i get file name is to exit go back into s/w back up and file name comes up but when i save it says BACK UP FAILED! am i doing this wrong? or maybe memo stick is faulty even though i can record on it plus save other stuff on it ie from laptop etc.

    please help as i need to update also i saw this morning that all the films on iptv have gone and now theres a new list after updating the iptv list, is that the end of the films?

    kind regards

    Did you create the channel list with the channel editor, if so it would be named User Database with the date you created the list, ? and it would be in the channel editor folder, that would then have to be extracted and loaded into the USB Stick to put onto the receiver, so when you come to do a channel list backup, you would just have to highlight the User Database file then backup to it, any modifications that you may have made will then be stored in your backup list, you can then load your channel list onto your desk top, open it with the channel editor and see your channel list with any changes that you have made, you can also delete any channels that you do not use, in readiness for the next time you need to install your channel list.

    I think you need to try another or a new good quality USB Stick? some makes are rubbish, keep to a well known branded name.

    Is there not a user database file in the folder containing the channel editor, it could be that the channel list in your s/w dl section may have a different suffix to that required by the spiderbox 6000, your database file should be something like this User Database 05-06-14.SSU, check that against the info your s/w dl section file, and if the last 3 letters are different change them to .ssu, and see if you can now load it to your usb stick.

    Try the advice given in post 13 and try re-formatting it first, I have had this problem with poor USB sticks.
