Cut and paste the entire link into the command line of your browser and it will work:

http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/CDA/KnowledgeBase/KnowledgeBaseDetail/
0,6401,CNTID%253D26227%2526CTID%253D401640,00.html?

Looks like XGFactory is in need of an update -the old links no longer work. Try this link
instead for the stand alone editors:

Okay, here's how it works: the version of XGWorks bundled with the AN200 is actually
XGWorks Lite, not the full XGWorks v3.0. You need to download the updater for XGWorks
Lite, not the full v3.0:

Scroll 3/4 of the way down the page and you'll find it under the section header 'Updaters'.

Yes, AN1xEdit will work with the AN1x, PLG150-AN and AN200.
