  1. I've been cutting for weeks without fail. But all of a sudden yesterday it's stopped responding to flexi. It goes through the process of cutting just not responding I can send a cut and it says 100% finished but like I said no response . I'm using a USB connection with flexistarter 8.5. Any ideas static?
  2. my cutter has started cutting dashes not all over the design just in a certain direction I think any ideas how to stop it cutting dashes instead of straight lines. weeding is a knightmare
  3. I've recently bought a mac and wondered what is the best software to use with us cutter pcut ct630 cutter. i was using flexistarter on windows but its not compatable with mac mavericks anymore, shame. and most of my cuts were done on flexi and can't transfer them now so its a matter of starting fresh i don't really want to run windows on a mac i.e parallels. any software recommendations would be great please, even better were to find

  6. I could do with upgrading some time soon, but thanks for your help guys I'm sure ill be along some time soon lol
  7. I also tried all the other things aswell but changing the baud rate done it for me
  8. Got it going now guys I dine a fresh install and downloaded the drivers all again but was still doing the same thing grrrr!! Came across a post somewhere else about the baud rate has to be at 9600 and mine wasn't set at that, so I changed it to 9600 and hey presto back in business. Just baffled to why it worked for so long before, don't know if it changed for some reason

    where is the bitmap option in flexi

    I recently watched a great tutorial video, amongst other things one part stood out for me. had the ability to change a bad bitmap image into a perfect bitmap ready for cut in just two or 3 clicks. it had the bitmap toolbar option at the top but I cant find it on my version? I have flexi8 starter version 8.62

    Cutting position

    So it's all done on the cutter itself, doesn't matter where my design is positioned on flexistarter 8 it will alwYs cut from the starting point I set on the cutter?
