Need help with inserting memory card
Comments (7)Thanks for the info Isbellpro, but unfortunately that didn't help. We have found a way to make it work. Select the samllest hoop size (100 x 100) and then load the desired patterns. Write the patterns to the card and then use the card in the embroidery machine (Brother PR190D in our case). If a larger hoop size is used (say 130 x 180 which we have) then the process does not work and we get the message "This card cannot work. Turn off power and change to embroidery card. " I assume the real problem, in our case at least, is that the pattern is enlarged by the PED-Basic software depending on the hoop size specified, and that the pattern becomes too big to load into the machine OR the PED Basic s/w genertes erors in the pattern file for a 130 x 180 hoop size. So... we are now going fine. It would be really nice if Brother would 1) acknowlwdge this problem, 2) put information in the brother web site FAQs about it and how to work around. 3) put a meaningful error message on the embroidery machine 4) fix the PED Basic s/w Let's see what happens....See MoreDon't I need to write a thank you note?
Comments (10)Sorry....I can see the scenario....your MIL has been talking non stop about the new grandchild...to these friends you don't know....so they brought over gifts to her for her new grandchild.....theyw eren't thinking of you at all, these were gifts for her grandchild. And, naturally they wanted to see her reaction to the wonderful things they brought, so told her to open them, and she did. Then of course brought them to you. She thanked the giver, because of course they were really for her grand child, and thinks that's all that's necessary. But if it were me, I would write them a note saying how thoughtful they were to send a gift, and mention how thrilled Grandma was and delighted when she bropught them over. I am sure they won't expect a thank you....but it's the nice thing to do....and don't worry about who sent what, just mention a baby gift. And remember.....these were first of all gifts for your inlaw's new grand child, not necessarily your baby. Linda C...See MoreNeed Help With Birthday Card, Please

Comments (10)It's not an invitation, though -- it looks like the OP is asking how to address an envelope with a card for the couple. I don't know whether she means to mail the card or hand it to them. If she's going to hand it to them, she can write "Mary and John," or for that matter, she doesn't have to write anything. If she's mailing it, she should use either "Dr. Mary Jones and Mr. John Smith" or "Mary Jones and John Smith." I don't think she doesn't know that. I think the real question here is whether she can find an excuse to address Mary as "Mrs. Smith" or "Mrs. John Smith" instead of "Dr. Jones." It seems like she is uncomfortable with Mary's and John's choice about their surnames and is looking for an etiquette excuse to ignore it. Believe me, that is exactly what they will conclude if you insist on disrespecting their wishes; they won't buy that you thought you were following some (nonexistent) etiquette rule about calling married women who you know have not changed their names by their husband's names. They know there is no such rule or convention, and they won't believe you if try to protest that you thought "that's how it's done" or "that's what I thought you told me you wanted." Her being a doctor is irrelevant except that she is styled "Dr. Jones" instead of "Ms. Jones" -- the rules are the same for any woman who kept her name, not just professionals. Some people use one name professionally and another socially, but this couple haven't given any indication that Mary intends to use Smith for any purpose. If they had, or even left room for doubt, the OP wouldn't even have posted; she just would have addressed the envelope "Mr. and Mrs. John Smith" (I assume; she actually said she would ordinarily write, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," which sounds more like it referred to an envelope she was planning on handing to them, not mailing). Anyway, the point is, they made their choice, whether or not it is one the OP likes, and the correct, polite, and respectful thing to do is to honor it. But if you are going to hand the couple the envelope, you have a perfect out (at least for this occasion): just put their first names only or nothing at all....See MoreLyban zone 4
