Re: embroidery problem
As long as the fabric has not been removed from the hoop, you should not have a problem. Just replace the hoop and touch the - (minus) key until the needle is back to the point of the first removed letter. Then push the START key. ---In janome12000@..., <mel2sew@...> wrote: I was in the middle of embroidering a quilt label ( small square hoop) when the bobbin thread became too loose and messed up the stitching.

Re: embroidery problem

It's easy you judt go hook it back up to the machine and the machine will ask if you want to start where you left off and press I believe cancel and it will start all over!

I use Stitch Buddy on my Ipad and my Apple laptop. I easily transfer the designs with a USB memory stick. ---In janome12000@..., <onlinesewing@...> wrote: I like the StitchBuddy app. He did a good job on it, and you can put designs into it via DropBox. In fact, for most people, the free 2GB DropBox account could hold your entire design "stash" and it would be safe in the cloud in case of hard drive crash or other disaster. There are just two flaws in StitchBuddy: 1. You cannot send designs from the StitchBuddy app to the machine, even via an external USB device. This might be changed in an update, as other companies now support sending designs from the iPad to the AirStash. 2. At $30 it's one of the most expensive apps. It's worth the price, but I think the price might scare off a lot of potential purchasers. Poor sales means it's less likely to have updates in the future.

Jim--
Thanks for your help! Looks like I have a 'project' for myself to get upgraded to MBX. After all, I've only had that upgrade sitting in it's box for a year!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sandy in NM ---------------------- Jim wrote: <1. We've been using MBX 4 in a Windows XP virtual machine with no problems. As long as you have a good video card and monitor you should be fine on XP. 2. Unfortunately the Corel software is tightly bound to MBX and you don't get to choose to leave it out. You may find it useful, as you can do more with images using the Corel side. 3. MBX 4 is a major upgrade to Digitizer Pro with lots of added features. Each iteration of Janome's Digitizer series brings it a little closer to the full Wilcom product. It's well worth upgrading. > ____________________________________________________________ 1 Easy trick FIGHTS carbs 1 EASY tip to increase fat-burning, lower blood sugar & decrease fat storage http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/528257a4142c757a47d40st04duc

Re: Counter
Tony Coley
Ms Pat,
Not sure I understand your questionabout the needle. I use 75/11 or 80/12 both sharp point and ball point depending on what I'm sewing. I move up to a 90 on heavy fabric or leather and down to a 60 for small lettering.
Happy sewing.
Tony

I remember many, many years ago before the stitch intensive designs we have now, that I believe one of the other companies decided that "X" amount of stitches was the "life" of the machine... too bad the machine they made was more durable than they imagined!
Tony, as long as you're around. I just broke a needle (LOL) what is the needle system I'm look for? It doesn't say on the package and currently my manual is buried under a mountain because I'm trying to get my sewing room set up for the new (12000) baby :)
Thanks in advance!

Re: Counter
Tony Coley
You should be able to ask your dealer. Almost all Bernina and a few Janome machine have counters of some type I haven't looked(my failing) at the 15000 but it has some type of counter. The 12000 does not have a counter.
Happy Sewing.

resequence tool bar
VLS
Because messages are not posted right away I continued to try to figure out how to turn the resequence toolbar back onto the right hand side of the screen, I was finally successful in doing it, and I bet I never forget in the future if it ever disappears again, how to turn it back on.

MBX tool bars
VLS
I
just got MBX and when I open a design in easy design my resequence tool bar is
not there. Im watching the first of the lessons by Trevor that came with
the software. He is explaining the resequence window but like I said I can
not find mine. I do see on the menu bar the view option but when I
go to the drop down menu resequence is not listed so what else would it be
called so I can turn it on. Vicki

I have a couple of questions about installing the update from MBDigiPro 3 to MBX 4. 1) My laptop has XP. The MBX 4 box only lists Windows 7 for an operating system, which is why I haven't installed it yet. Will it run on XP or do I need to upgrade the laptop? 2) I understand there is a bunch of Corel stuff in the update. Is it possible to install just MBX without the Corel stuff??? I doubt I would ever use the Corel parts, or are they an integral part of MBX now. 3) For most of what I do, I have had no problems using DigiPro with my 12000, as I am able to make any size hoop in the program, and have added in a 230 x 230 and the 230 x 300 as hoops for the Other Machine category. Are there any new "special gotta haves" in the MBX 4, such as there were when MB superceded plain old DigiPro?? Thanks for your help and expertise!!
