BrightAuthor-Connected not recognizing JPGs and other media

Hi there, 

I'm wondering if anyone can advise on how to solve an issue related to adding content to a presentation. When I select "open" within the content tab in order to select JPGs or other media files, the software seems to not recognize any file format... not JPGs, not JPEGs, not MP3s - nothing shows up... anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks for any help you can give!

    I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your presentation software! This issue can be frustrating. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve it:

    Check File Associations: Ensure that your presentation software is set as the default program for the file types you're trying to open (e.g., JPG, JPEG, MP3). You can do this by right-clicking on a file, selecting "Open with," and then choosing your presentation software.

    Update Software: Make sure your presentation software is up to date. Sometimes, updates include fixes for issues like this.

    Unblock Files: If the files were downloaded from the internet, they might be blocked for security reasons. Right-click on the file, select "Properties," and check if there's an "Unblock" button at the bottom. If there is, click it and apply the changes.

    Reinstall Software: If the above steps don't work, try uninstalling and then reinstalling your presentation software. This can sometimes fix issues with file recognition.

    Check Compatibility Mode: If you're using an older version of the software, it might not support newer file formats. Try opening the files in a different program to see if they work there.
