Imagine that you purchased your embroidery machine and software several years ago, and now you want a new computer. You purchase your new computer and now your embroidery software doesn’t work with that new computer. All too often the senario above is precisely what we hear either over the phone or when a frustrated customer comes into the store. When you purchased your embroidery software, you spent quite a bit of money on it. With the new computer you are left with few options. You can #1, keep your old computer just for your embroidery software, or #2, upgrade your software.
Bernina/OESD Software Compatibility Name of Product Windows XP Windows Vista 32-bit Windows Vista 64-bit. EXPLORATIONS V1.4 Yes No No No No.
Sometimes if your software is too old, upgrading your software is not an option, and you are left with option #3, purchase new software. (Sigh!) A Special Deal For You Bernina has announced a new promotion that is similar to the promotion they had going when they announced their V6.0 embroidery software, but the new promotion is way better! The “Trade in your Dongle” promotion from Bernina begins on September 3th, 2010, and includes options and possibilities not offered during the original Trade in your Dongle promotion. The additional possibilities cover nearly everyone who has embroidery software. This is a great chance to purchase Editor Plus or Designer Plus at a discounted rate. Here is the deal: Bring in a dongle from your old software, regardless of brand, including eXplorations and eXplorations lite, or bring in your dongle from the older versions of Bernina software – (V2.0, V3.0, V4.0, or V5.0,) and take advantage of the Bernina Trade in your Dongle opportunity. If you have a new (or a newer) computer and you are frustrated because your older version software does not work with that new computer, the Trade in your Dongle program is exactly what you want.
The offer also applies to all of you Editor Lite people who would like the additional embroidery capabilities of Editor Plus or Designer Plus. This promotion will last until October 31st, 2010. Bernina prohibits us from publishing prices on the internet, so come in to visitand don’t forget your old dongle! Hi Debra, Bernina's Embroidery Software V6 Update will not work with old V3 type dongles.
You do have a couple of options. First, you could try using a virtualization software to run a guest operating system on the new computer. I've used this method before. Microsoft has a virtualization software called Virtual PC, and I've also used one called VirtualBox. You'd have to have a custom computer/motherboard that has the old LPT type printer port if you go this route. Your only other option would be to wait until Bernina has another trade in your dongle event.
And I have no idea when that would be. Well, that's not entirely true. If you can obtain a V4 update package, you could then update your V3 dongle to V4, and then buy a V6 update package and update a second time. Unfortunately, you will need to find an old computer that has a parallel port so you can do the dongle update. There is no way around it. I wouldn't buy a new computer just for that, but if you do, you won't find any new computers with a parallel port. Actually, many motherboard manufacturers, such as Gigabyte, still over the port connection on their motherboards, but you would have to build your own computer, or have it built for you.
If you go that route, make sure the motherboard has the port connector, then you just have to buy the actual port and plug it in. It probably won't be configured to work by default, but if you go into the system BIOS, you'll find a setting to enable it.
Hi, we live and work in Saudi Arabia. I bought the Bernina Aurora 430 a few months ago. The nearest Bernina retailer is more than an hours drive from me and to be honest, the men that work there do not seem to be experts.
They gave me software with the machine, V1!!! It is useless to say the least. I can not import any images to edit because it is so outdated and the software that i think is suppose to convert pictures from jpegs to art is not included. I would like to know if it is possible to purchase the new V6 online and download it to my PC.
Or if you have any suggestions on how I can make my software work until I can buy new software? Thank you so much for your reply.
Mydesigns
I went back to Bernina here in Saudi and I was pleasantly surprised that the other man that served me did have knowledge on the products that I needed and on your advise I purchased the new software designer plus v6, dongle and all at a great price, the last of his old stock, ( I must add, I did not receive a dongle with my machine, are they suppose to sell them with your machine or only with new software?) I hope my questions to not seem dumb, I'm still figuring things out. But anyway, my software works great, download anything from the net! Thank you again! After my dongle broke a few months ago I tried to buy a new dongle thru Bernina. Not a chance! I have the original box and the original receipt in MY name.
The only suggestion / help? I have had is to buy a new software for almost 1000 pounds. I am utterly disappointed and there is no way I will do that. I own this software - I have paid full wack for it once.
And don't need an upgrade to v6 (mines v4) until I win the lottery. In desperation I handed my dongle in to a PC repair place and it was thrown away as non repairable. If anyone know how to get my program up and running again PLEASE email me! Hi Lena, I am so sorry but they don't help in Canada either.
I - like you had a broken dongle but before I could call them it was lost. I wrote on the chance - I have heard about this poor after purchase service before but thought it couldn't be true. Their audacious reply was to buy the new version 6. I was embarrassed for them even further when I tried to respond to their dismissal to discuss a more reasonable resolution and they responded to say they couldn't discuss the incident with me because I responded from my other email address - even though I had posted the incident number in my subject line!! They made me feel they have had great practice dismissing us - after all we are just dumb women.
I am convinced if men were buying home sewing machines at the price we pay - this type of practice wouldn't be tolerated. Shame on Bernina. Great product but not that special if the service doesn't match.
I am going elsewhere now and telling anyone who will listen to beware of this type of practice. Money isn't the issue - it is the principle isn't it? They could keep us happy an no cost. Instead they can now spend more money to try and acquire new customers and hope those folks don't read true customer experiences like ours before they decide which brand to purchase. I just wish I knew this sooner - before 1967 when my mum purchased our first Bernina. We have been brand loyal since then and have spent $20,000. It's their loss - not mine.
I was searching You tube and came upon a man who was showing how to use a USB to serial adaptor for a 180e, I do not know if this could help you. I agree that when a dongle is broken stolen what ever the situation, and that dongle has been registered with bernina, bernina should provide a replacement, makes good business sense. I have V3 designer plus with the old dongle, I am buying a new computer and trying the virtual PC, and then use the adapters, if this doesn't work I am selling my machine and going with Singer quantet, Futura. It is their newest machine, the size of 830 and comes with ALL the software, Check it out on HSN. I recently heard that my Bernina design software 6 was not going to work on my windows 8 so even though I didn't like windows 8 I was a little afraid to change to windows 10.
After awhile I decided to go ahead and make the change. That was about a month ago I believe. I was finally able to take the time to get back to my designing. I now find out my software will not work. In fact I cannot even find the designs that came with it. I cannot get out of one screen. What can be done to fix this?????
I certainly hope something can be. It was a dream to get this program and I can not afford to replace it. Please help.Beth. I have a newer laptop that does not support the dongle for V2. I upgraded to V4, but it won't install unless I put the dongle in for V2.
Such a conundrum! I wish Bernina would help the consumer by letting them upgrade to a newer version and then give them the FULL version, so we don't have to keep putting the old dongles in and having issues with newer technology!!! What advice to you have for me. I've already spent well over 2,000.00 for these two softwares.
I even bought an adaptor to use with my 170e machine. Now that I have the 730e, and a new laptop, I really need to have the 'full' newer version, not an upgrade. I'm stuck with expensive software and no way to use it. Products we sell:. Janome Machines & Accessories.
