You save to the glide just like a memory stick ,
1 put the glide into a USB on your PC
2 right click on your design and click send to then scroll down to where it says cruzer glide and click on it. ( it may say USB , or removeable memory, you may need to ID what you PC calls it)
your design should be on the cruzer glide!
You can now put it in your sewing machine and follow the directions to sew
Hi,
you may need to rotate the wheel a little by hand to raise the needle to the top of the stitch position, if this doesn't let the machine acknowledge the pressure foot being raised you may need to power cycle the machine so that it resets.
Try making it smaller, the only time my machine dose that it is one of 3 problems 1 I sent the wrong file type to that machine , 2 its to big , 3 it's a bad pattern. If changing the size doesn't fix it contact your digitizer and have them resend , the file may have a problem.
When you insert your USB stick into your computer it gets assigned a drive letter. Open that drive letter. Now locate the file you want to put on the USB stick . Now click on it to get the drop down menu and clock on copy. Now open the drive letter of your USB stick . Click on the window and choose paste. Your file will then transfer to the USB stick.
Install a brand new needle. Change the type of thread you are using (avoid old thread and bargain bin thread). Quite possibly the thread and needle are incompatible. Here are some guides that may be helpful:
All About NeedlesHow and Why to Bring up the Bobbin Thread
BEFORE threading the upper thread, be sure to RAISE the presser foot. This releases the upper tension disks so the thread will seat properly. Confirm with your owner's manual that you are threading the upper thread in the proper sequence.
Also, may need to adjust the upper tension. Usually, if globs of thread are accumulating under the fabric, the top tension is too loose and/or it is threaded incorrectly. Tighten the upper tension. Correct tension should have the upper thread and bobbin thread meeting in the middle of the fabric.
If there are still issues, there could be a burr or knick in the bobbin area that is catching the upper thread.

by default the machine always start with the hoop centered so make sure you have the center of your design in the center of the hoop then when your machine starts it will move the spot where the digitizer started the design. If you do this and hoop size is correct it should stich out fine. you can use this link to download the manual.

First, check your thread to see if it is too old. Yank on a strand; if it breaks, throw it out. Have a pro check and clean your machine. This is good to do even if it doesn't seem to need it. The person who does this can answer questions about the problem you are having, also. Good luck!
It may be the number of stitches in the design. Each hoop size has a maximum number of stitches it can stitch, even though the size seems ok. OR, perhaps there is just one stitch that 'infiltrates' the border area that is necessary around each design in the hoop. Check with Brother.com
check to make sure the top thread is coming off the thread spool ok, sometimes the thread can get caught on the notch that's on the thread spool. also make sure it's moving smoothly thru the top tension area, sometimes it good to use some unwaxed dental floss and use it between the tension disc, always remember where the tension dial was set.
Try these suggestions
1. Change the needle--use a needle that's for the fabric being sewed
2. Rethread the machine--top --make sure to use every thread guide
3. try a different bobbin--make sure bobbin is inserted correctly into the bobbin case, & make sure the bobbin is turned the correct way in the bobbin case
4. make sure the thread has not come off the thread take up lever
5. Clean under the needle plate & in the bobbin area for lint or threads
The needle thread breaks
1. the needle thread is not threaded properly
2. The needle thread tension is to tight
3. The needle is bent or blunt
4. The needle is incorrectly inserted
5. The needle thread & the bobbin thread are not set under the presser foot when starting to sew
6. the threads were not drawn to the rear after sewing
7. The thread is either to heavy or to fine for the needle
