1) is your microSD card fat32
2) Use USB install tinfoil is preferred over goldleaf
3) use the latest atmopshere files
4) get the sigpatches for how you are launching, either hekate sigpatches or fusee-primary sigpatches

  1. Delete the atmosphere folder from your SD card
  2. Download the latest version of Atmosphere and put it onto your SD card
  3. Download these signature patches and put them onto your SD card
  4. Boot the system using fusee-primary (found next to Atmosphere download)

sigpatches are required for atmosphere to install/launch nsp files

Are you launching with fusee-primary or hekate?

What is the specific error message you're receiving? It sounds like you might have installed just the update file, not the base game. Also, make sure you look at my steps in my previous post.

Did you ever add the signature patches I included in my earlier post?
