Oh, Margarett;
You're too kind.  I agree with the old sayings,..  "Knowledge is Power", "If 
you don't know,.. Ask", & "If all else fails, read the directions."

I have a question for all you wonderful folks out there in "Amaya Land"...
Have any of you been faced with the dilema of what to do with the kids while 
attending the ISS show 8 hours away from home when family members and overnight 
baby sitters are not an option?
I have two older kids, ages 7 & 9.  
I think I remember there being child care services at the ISS show but I 
believe that was for babies and now I'm wondering if I'm confusing this with 
some other event.
I'll check their website but just wanted to see if you all have any creative 
ideas.
Last year we doubled up with another couple with two kids. The four adults 
played "daily tag team" in order for everyone to see the show - while the kids 
and one guardian would go swimming, to the mall or park.
It was kind of tight and the wife and I only got to see the show one day each - 
and not even together.
So just looking for ideas and past experiences.

Thanks,
Ed Orantes

Thanks Ed!!  That is the first time the issue has ever been explained in 
layman's terms so the average person can understand!!  The Amaya manual sure 
didn't say it so eloquently!!!  You always jump in at just the right moment!!!

Subject: [amayausers.com] Force Download - Yes or No???


Hey guys,
Allow me to shed a little light on this subject, because it seems to be causing 
some grief.

Force Download is a feature in software that is intended to used to get the 
machine/software out of a "stuck" situation.  It should be turned "OFF" under 
normal circumstances.
You will find that when the computer and Amaya machine is booted up ( turned 
on) ....  whatever the last settings were in software and in the machine's 
memory will "reload" themselves so that you can "pick up where you left off" 
from where you were last sewing.  For example: this could mean either after a 
storm knocked out your power or if you have to sew 100 shirts and only finished 
50 last night and plan to do the remaining 50 this morning.
If you happen to encounter a "bug" or "corrupt file", -  and turning the entire 
system off and then on again doesn't fix your problem, the "Force Download" 
feature might be able to help.  What this does is reloads from the computer to 
your Amaya machine all of the essential files that were originally installed 
the first time you installed software or the last time you upgraded your 
software.
The downside to leaving this feature "turned on" all the time is that whatever 
design you were sewing before the lights went out or whatever you were sewing 
last night will not be there waiting for you when the machine finishes booting 
up.  Simply because those "essential files" were "Forced Downloaded" to the 
machine and overwrote the files from the last time the machine was on.

If you choose to leave "Force Download" on all the time, it won't hurt 
anything.  But if you lose power during sewing, you will have to spend a bit 
more time trying to figure out how to "pick up where you left off".  And that 
is another subject for a different post.

Good Luck to you;
Ed Orantes

Debbie I sure can't advise on this matter.When we got our machines the trainer
set it all up for us, what he did was in the settings tab , checked the first 
one there
that is about the Force Download, which means it will force the design to 
return to
the origin.

Now I've heard both opinions about force download.  Some say check it, some say 
don't.  I read my manual again, and I was to check it when I first  loaded the 
OS, but I swear it says to be sure and uncheck it after the system is loaded??? 
  Can you advise?

Yes it is on its network & computer. I'm not sure about the Force Download
being checked. Where do I find this?
