Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! WOO HOO!!! Have fun! Feel free to ask questions. There are several BUG GUIDES who come on and give us what information they can from time-to-time. Some of the rest of us try to help out, too. Be sure to give FEEDBACK in CCR (on left hand menus) on everything you CAN and CAN'T do. They will appreciate it. That's what we're here for. Char

I got in too. I just try every now and then. I can't believe it. I didn't get an email. So will it cut for me. I also didn't get to finish adding my carts. And now I can't figure out how to add the rest. But I don't see where you can look at just your carts. I'm so excited but I don't know how to do anything  Still excited though, Chiquetta

For the heck of it, I tried again and I am in!!!!
Just did a few things so far. It doesn't seem to show you as much of the Mat as DS though. I can probably deal with that once I play around a bit. I am sure that having used DS for a few years, I should be able to figure this out.
I'll give feedback if and when I find something that doesn't work correctly or that I don't like.
First I need to update it from 48 to 50.
Do I have to do anything before I can cut with my E2. I haven't used it in a couple weeks but it was update when I first tried it out.
Do I have to sync my E2 with the CCR? Guess I need to do a little more research.

I'm so excited but I don't know how to do anything Still excited though, Chiquetta Chiquetta - If you have a CUT button in the upper right corner of you mat, you might be able to CUT. You can ADD your carts, by going to OPTIONS on the left-hand menus and click on Craftroom tab. There you can go to Bookmarks and add in the cartridges you own. I think you actually have to REGISTER your cartridges with CRICUT before the system will recognize that you own them, though. Bookmarks (when you add your owned carts) merely helps the system work faster when we're working in CCR and helps the system know we actually have those carts and will bring them up for us faster when we work in them on the mat. I think I'm telling it right. Go to FEEDBACK and go through all the menus to see what all the various functions do and how to use them. Hope this helps. Char

You can minimize the IMAGES/OVERLAY tab by clickin on the down arrow, after you add your images/letters to the mat. This lets you see most of the mat to do other things you want to do. I can probably deal with that once I play around a bit. I am sure that having used DS for a few years, I should be able to figure this out.

First I need to update it from 48 to 50.
Do I have to do anything before I can cut with my E2. Be sure to go to OPTIONS and under the PROJECT tab, show which machine you have hooked to your computer and the size mat you are using I haven't used it in a couple weeks but it was update when I first tried it out.
Do I have to sync my E2 with the CCR? Guess I need to do a little more research. GO TO THE HELP MENU AT THE TOP OF THE CCR PROGRAM AND see if you need to install drivers for your machine (WARNING: This may cause your machine not to work, so you may want to wait to see if others are having good luck with it. ADDITIONALLY, to SYNC your E2, you will automatically get a message, when you go into CCR with your machine turned on, to do a SYNC. AGAIN: WARNING: This may cause your machine not to CUT if it was CUTTING before. Many of us are having issues with this right now, even though we could CUT just fine before we did the SYNC. [b] Good luck; hope some of this helps you. Char
