Does PC Stitch Pro 9 run on 64bit Win7?
My XP Pro Laptop screen died last night & I am forced to use this hateful Win7 LT. ...and now my Registration has expired. What a way to start the week! Grrr.

PCStitch 9 (Pro or Standard) is the only version of PCStitch supported under Windows 7 AND Vista. PCStitch 8 was supported under Vista but not 7 (it came out before Windows 7 did).

| I just purchased a new computer with Win7 64bit. I installed my very old version of PC Pro (7.0), but now it won't update past 8.03. When I request an update, it says that it has the most recent version. I need 9.0 to see the patterns I created. Any ideas on how to get the program to update? |

Major updates are not included in the automatic update procedure. It only updates within the first digit of the level (7, 8, 9 ...).
You must PURCHASE the next level update. When a major level is released, there is usually a time where users can upgrade to the new level at a reduced price. I do not know if that is still allowed as 9 has been out for some time now. You need to check with customer service on that issue. Once you update, you can again use the auto-update for within that major level.
When you buy a license for PCStitch, you do NOT receive unlimited free updates - just those within the level you have purchased.
Only PCStitch 9 is designed to support Win 7 (32 or 64 bit). There never was a pro for level 7. Level 7 became known as "Standard" when the first "Pro" was released as level 8. The two variations are now within level 9 as the only currently supported version of PCStitch.

| Okay...confused for a moment. I checked my email and I did purchase version 9.0....in November 2008. So, how do I go about loading it onto my computer when I don't have a disk with that version? I only have PCStitch Pro 8. (I thought it was 7...guess not). |

If you have purchased it, then you should be able to download the full version. Your email should have the unlock code to activate it.

My Windows XP desktop died about a year ago. I purchased a new laptop Windows 7. Today I "redownloaded" the PCPro that is on the Home Page. During the download, my 2008 date came up and said that I didn't need an upgrade. I was never asked for my Pro Unlock key. I assume I'm OK now.
So, just download from the Home Page and you should get through fine.
Hugs, Joan |

Joan,
That will work only if you were already using PCStitch 9. If you were using Pro 8, it would not work.
