I have 2 computers, one is a lap top I have with me when I am watching tv and the other in my office. I have downloaded patterns on both and need to transfer some patterns from one to another, is there an easy way to do that?

just use a flash drive or network the two together and transfer your files to a directory with a different name. Then open that file in the designer program and re-save it to the favorites folder in designer.


Good luck

Look into a program by Microsoft called SyncToy, it's free. Great utility to sync files on 2 computers, simply connect both computers to a network, run SyncToy and it will compare the files in the folders you select updating files on both computers depending on which are newer.

Thanks Jeff, I forgot I had a flash drive sitting in my desk and didn't even think about it. I did a search for all PTN and MPC files and transfered them to the flash drive. Didn't even think about that til you brought it up, thanks.
