Uno and Geeetech Yun Shield

Hi, I have just got a Geeetech Yun Shield, got it onto the wifi network, problem now is that I can not update the boards menu even with the board manager so that I have Uno - Yun Shield,,,, I have followed many different guides from the net including the official Geeetech detup guide, can not get in to edit the text file like it says for the board to be seen. HELP....
