Busy Bug Babble... Gypsy Update Nov 2010!


Hello Crafters,  I hope this reaches you all in time.  I just wanted to let everyone know that because ProvoCraft had technical difficulties yesterday they have extended the Gypsy Update until tonight.   You can still get the 6 free cartridges uploaded onto your Gypsy! 
 Free cartridges include:
Smiley Cards (new and exclusive to this promotion) 
Tags, Bags, Boxes and More (not available in retail) 
Christmas (not available in retail) 
Blackletter (not available in retail) 
Printing Press (not available in retail) 
Indie Art (not available in retail) 


 I had a hard time updating my Gypsy with my Mac, so I used my PC instead.  Also, you have to use the Cricut Sync, not the Gypsy sync.  If you don't have the Cricut Sync Icon on your desktop,  go to Cricut.com, and in the Custom Search bar on the top right of the web page, type in CRICUT SYNC.  Then go down the page and click on SUPPORT CRICUT......Then click on PC DOWNLOAD.  Then follow all the instructions to RUN the program.  It takes a little while to download.
 Here is a little of what you will see as you are Updating the Gypsy....

Install Cricut Sync

I Agree
Connecting to Device, this is where you need to turn on your Gypsy and connect it to the PC.
Connecting to Gypsy
Checking for updates
And go on from there.
Good luck.
Bug Hugs!!
