SS4 is now out of beta https://www.silhouetteamerica.com/software
release notes here https://www.silhouetteamerica.com/so...ease-notes/466
Thank you Shirley, I have been enjoying playing with it for a couple of weeks now and find it quite nice to use. Thank you for doing all of the beta testing. :thanks:
lol I just put the Beta one on last night does that mean I will have to go download it again today?
Thank you Shirley I've corrected the post I put on last night. I noticed it's smaller than all previous versions of 4.....this one is 183mb the others were all over 200mb so hopefully it will be ok
It's been fun doing the testing Sue and I think it will be an ongoing thing as they want to introduce new features with - possibly - being able to save in svg format - not available yet though !!
Thanks Doreen, I've now added the download link to my original post. Am just downloading so will try installing later !!
Shirley do you know how i set up the bluetooth for the V4?
Sorry Helen I mentioned it in your other post, when you are ready to cut go to the Send Panel, select your Material and Actions then press next and you will get to the screen where it says Add Bluetooth Machine, click on that and you'll get a pop up screen asking you to select your device, it should then start connecting.
Oh yes the print and cut worked fine, now i am going to try the pen tool and cut ;)
Keep us posted Helen:)
Ok the pen tool and cut did not work. It started do all the ramdom things again and nearly ended up cutting through my cutting strip again. So back to usb connection lol
I am having right trouble trying to get the cameo to register on my computer now that i put it back on the USB. Should this be saying this or should it be saying cameo 3?

I have it working now on the USB, still shows up as above, but it is working. It is being really slow with the sketch pens though. Is anyone else's like that? When i say slow i mean like really really slow worse than snail pace :unsure:
Right i think i might have worked out the slow problem. Inside the send is an advanced cog, in there is something called "Minimize Roller Movement" so i unticked that and ticked "Maximize Speed" instead, it seems to have speeded it up now. Lets hope i don't get anymore issues lol :comp:
I am just trying to install V4.0.623, but I aborted because I had a message saying it needed Bonjour, I had closed that window earlier as I thought it was something to do with ITunes. Please can you tell me if I need to let the Bonjour file install. Thank you. pat
I didn't have that message but Bonjour is already on my pc. This is what Google says Bonjour Service provides a general method to discover services on a local area network. The software is widely used throughout Mac OS and Windows for iOS devices, and allows users to set up a network without any configuration. It is used to find printers and file-sharing servers. so it shouldn't be any problem
I've just started the install of V4 again, but it says it needs to install the Bonjour Installer. The next page is the licence agreement which reads all about Apple Inc . I haven't gone any further at the moment. Thank you again. Pat. X
Thank you Doreen, I had typed the last message before seeing your reply. So hopefully it will be ok to go ahead with the install. Xx Pat
Bonjour is safe to install. Studio uses it for Silhouette Link I believe, so it is nothing to worry about.
I've just downloaded Studio 4 and can't get it installed. When the download file unzips I don't see an .exe file or an application file to initiate install. Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong <_<.
Below is what my download looked like I just double clicked the icon and installed it

The Divot (that's me again) had only downloaded the Mac version to my Windows PC - DOH:wacko:
I am trying to download Studio 4 to my laptop to try it out before putting on my p.c. but it does not want to know. My laptop is oldish so is this the reason I having problems? It has a Pentium 1.73 GHz dual core processer with 2 GB memory.
The Studio file is a DMG so I downloaded 7-Zip software to open it, but when I did try to open it there is no autorun to run it.
Think dmg may be the MAC version
Shirley I thought I did click on the windows version. I ended up using Google Chrome as I.E. would not download it at all and Silhouette Store told me on every screen that my web browser was out of date.
I am thinking of getting Windows 7 from the bay to update from Vista. Used the Microsoft checker and it says my laptop will run it but the H.P. drivers may need updating. Why is it software and hardware become outdated so quickly?
Duh!!! I forgot to click on the arrow to show Windows. I did go to the list further down the page and clicked on the Windows one which is a smaller size and it's the right one.
Thank you Brian, I have now installed it onto my laptop, still have to use it with Cameo 3 though. X
I am trying to load the new version on to my laptop but it gets to 21% then stops, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong please
Ann the first time I installed it on my aging laptop lunchtime today the shortcut was missing, so something went wrong. I downloaded and installed it again and it worked the second time. It seems to run on Vista o.k. so far but I did not have time to check it out properly as we were going out.
Try downloading it again like Margaret had to Ann.
Thank you ladies for your help.
I tried four times last night to download it and it downright refused, today it decided to play nice so I am up and running and me and my laptop are now friends again :D
I have given up trying to download V.4. The first time I downloaded the Windows version by mistake so deleted that and tried the Mac version but it fails part way through every time. I PM'd Brian but he didn't respond so I'm stuck with V.3 for the time being. I wonder why so many people have had problems downloading it.
Shirley
Thank you Doreen, will get around to doing that sometime. Not doing much crafting at the moment, just got fed up with all the technical problems I've had of late so giving it a rest. I think technology is moving too fast for me these days, my brain is having trouble keeping up. Computers are like cars, when they work they're wonderful but when they don't they're h..l. Having a cooking and baking phase for a change of creativity.
Shirley.
