Your machine only has a 4x4 embroidery field so make sure the designs you are trying to transfer will fit in the 4x4 hoop. Your machine should have come with a USB cable to hook your machine directly to your computer. When you have the machine hooked up to the computer the machine will show up as another drive. Most computers have two drives, usually a C and D drive. The embroidery machine might be an E, F, G., etc. Once you have your design selected on your computer save it to the "E" drive which is the embroidery machine. Make sure you save it in the PES format, your machine has to be turned on while you are sending the design to it. It should then be in your embroidery machine. Please read your manual for more instructions, or sign up for a class with your dealer. You will be very happy if you do and life with your embroidery machine will be so much easier. If you are not computer savy I'd suggest taking a basic computer class.
