Hello,

I downloaded my Genome over globus as a BAM file. Whenever I go to open it, I recive this error "No sequences found in /Users/connorstager/Downloads/CMSGenome.bai.fai". Do you know what I can do?

Looks like you loaded your BAM file via the Genome menu - it should be loaded via the File menu. 

The Genome menu is used to select the reference genome. You should load or select the same reference genome that was used to align your sequencing data when the BAM file was created. Do that before you load the BAM file itself.
