Step 2. Create association of Awave Studio with PSION files
If, despite the installed application, the PSION file does not start in the Awave Studio application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Awave Studio application as the default for handling the PSION file.
Step 3. Update Awave Studio to the latest version
If, however, after binding Awave Studio with Psion A-law Sound there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the FMJ-Software page and install.

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PSION file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PSION file. However, remember that not every infected PSION file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PSION file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PSION files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PSION files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the PSION file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PSION file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PSION file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
