If you experienced a problem with the AirStash. Please follow the instructions below;

1. Email customerservices@maxell.eu to get a copy of the firmware update file and upload onto the SD card that is being used with the AirStash.
2. Insert the SD card into the AirStash.
3. Plug the AirStash into a powered USB port (either a computer USB port or a USB charger)

Immediately upon inserting the AirStash into a powered USB port, the LED on the AirStash will begin to blink rapidly, alternating between green and yellow.  It will go through a series of blinks, there will be a pause, and then it will go through another series of blinks.  Leave the AirStash plugged in to the USB port until the rapid blinking completely stops.

At that point the AirStash will be updated.

Venture USB contains two partitions – one named ‘Public’ and the other ‘Secure’. Unfortunately we have noticed a compatibility problem between these drives and some computers running Windows Vista. In these cases only one drive is showing in ‘My Computer’ – usually the ‘Secure’ drive. As a result you are unable to access the user manuals and software which are in the ‘Public’ drive and cannot alter the partition sizes to allow access to the entire capacity. Please follow the instructions carefully to resolve the problem.

Please follow the below instructions to resolve the problem:

1. Connect the USB to the computer
2. Please unzip and run the attached program
3. After completion please unplug the USB
4. Re-insert the USB to the USB port
5. You should now be able to access both drives.
