Did you extract them first, they are zipped when you download them.

Did you format the USB stick with the M3?
If not it can be a little strange, so I'd give that a go then put the files back onto the stick from your computer.
I've had some funny things happen with sticks formatted using windows, where the M3 can't see/read folders, but can see/read individual files and write to the stick no problem.
For the most trouble-free operation I'd definitely try formatting it via the M3 itself, but rememer to back up any other files you may have on there to your computer first!

Re: Problem with upgrade
You can not load the files one at a time. First you have to upgrade. Global menu, then upper right corner menu select "update system software". You do that twice!geomyk wrote:I downloaded the korg xpanded upgrade for m3,i put the files into the USB drive and i connecte it to korg.But,it says that it cant find the files.When i go load them one by one it says'' illegal file type''.

After the update your M3 is expanded and will load/recognize the *.kep files.
There are no stupid questions.., only stupid answers..
