Hello Forscan team!
Today I saw the newest version of forscan and I wanted to update my Sync3 APIM firmware.
Details:
Focus mk3 FL 2018
Sync 3.0 updated to 3.4 with CyanLabs solution.
Viaken STN 1170
And it doesn't work - result is as on picture - forscan cannot find any available firmware.
Please help

I am having the same issue with my MY2017 Fiesta... (see attached image).
I am using an OBDLink EX updated to the latest firmware, and already updated my Sync using the CyanLabs installer.
Initially I thought this was due to me having only the free extended license, so I bought one. The problem still persists. I cannot have the latest version available already installed, as I do not have Calm Screen with my updated 3.4 Sync.

So I wrote to the Forscan guys, they replied with this, after I mentioned I upgraded to 3.4 Sync through the Cyanlab Forddownloader.
"No, it means FORScan was unable to recognize your assembly because of it this didn't offer updatre options"
They are looking into a fix

same for me... Sync 3.4 - Forscan do not find any updates for APIM (even though I have not yet updated it to get radio logos).
