I am making this post again as some of you read via email. I always make changes to post lol so better to read on my blog. I know I am impatient and just post and then go back and add and edit even though I have an editing blog. Sassy keeps reminding me to use it. But.... as I said I am impatient!
Well anyway here is the gist of the update again as this update is causing some confusion as seen in the MB
so here goes
"
First keep your G connected to power.
It should first download data files and green bar moves to 100%
and then it says updating or uploading and then again another green bar - 100% .
At this point check if G says connected.
After that 2nd 100% if nothing happens after 10 mins then close cricut sync. It's ok to do so. Then restart cricut sync.
But if message says do not power off G (and G says connected of course) then allow it to continue. This will take anywhere from 10 - 15 mins.
After that cricut sync goes to show files.
At this point close the cricut sync (only then G will show the icons again or else will show connected) and check G's version should say 0206:0214.
Also try opening cricut sync - just because ! lol
It should now show - no updates (or something like that)
Then check if some of the new cartridges are there and you are good to go!
I had to try 5 times before I got it.
When traffic is less you will have better luck sometimes

Thanks for the heads up, I still get skittish about updates thanks to the really bad one in 2009 lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you, mine updated on the first try!
ReplyDeleteI have just wasted the afternoon trying to get it to update. At the very end, the adobe bridge program throws up and it won't take the info. I haven't updated in a long time (gypsy only) - I'm at 0206:0200. It's really frustrating!!! I don't dare touch the imagine...just want to SCREAM right now! Hugs, Joy
ReplyDeletethanks pam. i will wait a few more days to update just because ;p
ReplyDeletehope your back is behaving :)
Mine worked on first try also. TFS!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pam for doing this before most of us try it! :D Plan on doing the G update but I think I'll now wait a little longer on the I one.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the big update!
I just got a Gypsy. I registered it and could not figure out how to get the five free carts that Provocraft advertised. Any ideas?
