I originally posted this in the 2500 section but was recommended I post it in the JJ section. I am copying it here with no changes..

Quick advance: apologies if this is an obvious question that has been answered many time. I've looked long and hard in these forums and followed the advice found in other threads, all to no avail, thus my posting here.

I am using JJOS free (v 3.10).

The problem:
I hit mode/2, then F4. Rather than giving me the option to turn autoload on or off for a specified program, it gives me the option of highlighting either "Hard Disk" or "Programs" ("Programs" being the name of the only folder I've created) and the only F keys are F4 (cancel) or F5 (enter). Hitting F5 does nothing but return me to the previous "Load" screen. Scrolling does nothing when highlighting either "Hard Disk" or "Programs". So effectively I can neither turn autoload on for any programs, not turn it off for any.

Advice is very appreciated in advance.

Greetings again,

I've figured it out. Wholly smokes is it ever ironic that such a wicked piece of hardware has some of the most unituitive software ever. What I've learned, and haven't read elsewhere, is that it seems only one folder can autoload. My problem was trying to autoload multiple folders. And as pointed out to me in the 2500 forum, only folders, or folder, can be autoloaded and you have to put any programs in that folder (which also is super complicated when it should be super simple).

Happy beats to you all!
