It's been 24 days since this thread was started!!! Beta test began for CCR February 2011....ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO.......... I think it's time that PC step up to the plate and give the users some feedback! This entire experience has been so one-sided!

I use this program almost daily.

PC........NATHAN.......Doesn't it make any sense at all when you came here weeks and weeks ago to tell us PC ENGINEERS (nonetheless) would be coming on here to monitor THIS forum to help out with the problems users are having! It just seems to reason THAT ONCE PROBLEMS ARE RESOLVED, PC ENGINEERS....or, you, NATHAN.....would come BACK and do a QUOTE on the specific problem being RESOLVED to let EVERYONE on here know AT THE SAME TIME (in case there are a myriad of other users having that same problem) HOW THEY CAN RESOLVE THEIR CONFLICTS? Granted, maybe the user might have to call you guys back, but you could let them know and at least they have a glimmer of hope that the particular problem you're addressing might actually be resolved!!!!!!! THE WAY IT IS.....and, the way it has been for a long time.....it seems NO PROBLEMS ARE BEING RESOLVED WHATSOEVER. It's very disheartening for those of us who love our PC products so much. I'm not speaking for me (I have very few problems), but I'm speaking for the many, many users on here who have genuine problems. It doesn't seem like they ever get resolved. I mean, come on. I agree it has been all one-sided up to now. It's hard to believe PC runs their customer service in this way. Nathan, you came on to give us all hope.....but, once again, the hopes are being dashed, minute by minute. We used to all have a lot of hope...but, I'm afraid it's fading fast.

Why come on here dangle a carrot in front of all our noses and then never come back to even say "Our engineers are working on some of your issues, thanks for your feedback" NO just ANOTHER ploy of PC tryiing to make us believe they care about their customers and care about improving communication and customer service. I use CCR all the time and I love it WHEN it works! Yes I use it with my Imagine and we all know those issues. I can get through a project and cut it about two times with no problem, then the next time I go to cut something, it either turns off my Imagine, loads the mat but never brings it forward then starts cutting when there is not a mat there, or it just plain SPITS the mat out. I am sure if I used my Expression that I would not have these problems but I like using my Imagine and with the way my room is set up I can not have them both set up at the same time. I guess it could be because I got so frustrated that I bought a Cameo and it is taking up my Expression spot. But if CCR worked all the time with my Imagine I would use it as I do kind of like the handiness of cartridges plus I have so so much money invested like everyone else has. Besides that it says right on PC's front page CCR works with ALL of their machines is this false advertisting. You know I would really hang in there and keep working with it IF I knew PC was actually trying to make things works, but after this long of absolutely no word from anybody at PC I seriously doubt they even care. If they did they would hire people that knew how to write a computer program and make it work instead of suing the ones that do. Don't get me wrong I love love love my Cricuts - I have a Create, An Expression, a Imagine, a Gypsy and tons of cartridges but it makes me mad they WE have all been so loyal and love our BUGS, but PC doesn't seem to give a (fill in the blank) about us.

I had to spend a great deal of time with a customer service rep to get the older version back. It is doing OK so far (Knock on wood). Now I have to decline the upgrade and new drivers EVERY time. I can't use a Gypsy because the screen is so small and my vision is so bad. I love the large screen of my laptop. Why do they issue upgrades before they know they work????? IMO Provo Craft is ALL BLOW AND NO SHOW. They say they care but their actions say they do not. They keep "creating" new stuff with out bothering to get the old stuff fixed. New machines come out instead of fixing the ones they have already built. Crafters are left with things they can't use (Imagine) Do they think crafter's pockets are bottomless? FIX THE MACHINES AND CCR. If the IT people can't get the job done, fire them and hire some who can. They could manage to fix it so 3rd party programs would not cut other images, but they can't get their own programs to work with their own machines. GO FIGURE!! OK PROVO CRAFT GET IT TOGETHER.

I would love to be able to plug my machines into CCR and know CCR is going to work correctly every time and any time we want to use it with all our machines.......... I love being able to work on a large screen....... but i just dont see that happening. I wish my gypsy-linked carts could be linked in CCR........... I have to drag them out all the time. I would love my Imagine to perform as hyped, but after 2 years, I don't see this happening either........... I wish that CCR had one-click shadowing like all the other cutter softwares do....... I wish CCR had the alignment tools that other cutting softwares have........ but I don't see my wishes being answered......... Ladies, it's like hitting my thumb with a hammer over and over again.......... It feels so good when I stop......... It's best to move on to the tools that do work as promised and enjoy crafting and not spend time troubleshooting and fiddling...........

The message board is BLOWING UP with unhappy folks using CCR after this latest update...yet no one, including you, is addressing or acknowledging the problems and challenges with it. Simply put: this is unacceptable. WHY would PC put out such a FAULTY update that is so filled with bugs and kinks? And then - IGNORE our pleas for help? This is NOT the way to conduct business. Don't know if that will help at all, but at least MAYBE he'll read it and pass it on to the "so called engineers."

I wanted to see how long this process would go on for........ 2 hours and the demand for each cart rotated thru CCR......... and never a cut......reboot the machine, CCR and the E2........... it never worked..........never a cut!

Your companies continued silence and ignoring of the promises unfulfilled, problematic programming and failed equipment are only angering me beyond belief...to the point that I am considering my options for forcing you address these issues since you will not willingly do it....You have had plenty of time to be open and honest with us, I believe the politically correct terminology nowadays is "transparency" with the issues so we can work on a mutually beneficial resolution, this unpaid beta testing we are being subjected to once your programming enters the mix and being constantly told "we are working on it" doesn't cut it anymore. It will look better for your company if you admit that there is a problem, willingly do an immediate recall of the defective machines and reimburse customers (no Cricut.com credit) or replace them with machines that function as advertised (3rd party if need be). There is too much dissatisfaction out there for you to be able to continue in this manner. I'm in this too deep with all the products that I have purchased from this Cricut Line, if I have to leave for another system because of your programming issues it will most definitely be at your expense....What's the going rate for 321 cartridges, 15 or 18 digital cartridges, one of each machine that you make, (2 new mini's), a jukebox, 2 design studio programs, 12 new ink cartridges, 8 Blades, 12 Mats and a gypsy....Obviously my faith in you has been badly misplaced...Why doesn't your company return to its roots and admit that you are not digitally inclined, we will totally understand because we have lived it. You should return to what your system started out as and functioned well at. If it ain't broke quit trying to fix it. Freda

Just send me a message and I will be glad to help. I will be posting the fix as I have to type it out. I was so happy that I got it!!!! I received a document from Cricut with step by step instructions but it was not for the Nortons 360 it was for another Nortons. So I had to figure it out, but I finally got it after all these months, lol

All because the program kept freezing up on me. And there was an hour where I couldn't even load my project because the program was freezing out. I bought this I don't have 4 hours to waste when I'm trying to quickly get things cut out for my classroom at work because my one year olds only sleep for 2 hours. And alot of my cartridges are in digital format because you can't seem to keep the cartridges I need in stock EVER. So... this needs to be resolved. And it would be nice to not have to depend on an internet connection.

I used is successfully last weekend and starting using it again yesterday. It's pretty slow, freezes and hangs, but it gets the job done. Half way through a cut I realized I needed to stop the machine and my Cricut completely froze. Now it will not turn back on. The power light comes on, but that's it. No chirping, no movement, nothing! I called PC and was advised to do a reset; which was probably the 20th time. Then I was told to do a firmware update; which is completely impossible because now the computer doesn't recognize my device. So, it seems to me CCR killed my Cricut. Unfortunately, it's out of warranty and I don't suspect they will fix this even though it worked fine until I hooked it up to CCR. What really irritates me is that I bought $200+ in digital cartridges that I won't be able to use.

If you go to the Craft Room Application forum (using the dropdown at the bottom of these threads), Narelle has some suggestions to help with WINDOWS 8. You should see a few threads concerning WINDOWS 8 in which she has detailed explanation that might help you out. If that doesn't help, I would call ProvoCraft for help. It will work with WINDOWS 8 if you have all the other requirements that are specified for use with CCR. Char

Sometimes when I hope the program it will crash immediately. If not it will say "ACCESSING YOUR ACCOUNT" and continue there for more than 20 minutes. Is there a solution to this?

If not it will say "ACCESSING YOUR ACCOUNT" and continue there for more than 20 minutes. Is there a solution to this? You might see some titles in CRAFT ROOM APPLICATION Forum (use the down arrow at the bottom of these screens to get to it) that will be helpful to your situation. Ask the question there and give a little more info: E.g., what computer you're using, what machine you're working with, etc.! Also, have you installed the drivers to the machine you're using? In CCR, go up to the HELP menu and click on the machine you need to install the drivers to, if you haven't already done that. ALSO, make sure ADOBE AIR is installed on your computer. It should have installed when you downloaded CCR, but occasionally, if we go out of the screen too quickly after the download, you don't get the prompt to install ADOBE AIR.
