I have Babylock's Palette Version 6 on my computer .. Does anyone
know if Brother's PE Design version 7 upgrade can be used to upgrade
the babylock software to version 7, or does one need to use the
Palette version 7 upgrade?

me

(Own and using Singer PSW version 2.00A -&- Babylock Palette version
6.08 -&- Autodigitizing version 1... Help, I still need a dongle
override patch for my Autodigitizing program, my dongle got ruined!)

Palette and PE Design are identical; your problem isn't any
Brother/Babylock conflict, but ...

I thought that PE Design comes with a card reader, not a dongle ...
but ...

You will have to replace your ruined dongle or card reader with a new
one. This may take some serious negotiation with a dealer or the
parent company (Brother or Babylock). It's highly unlikely (I estimate
a 0% chance)that any dongle override patch that works on V6 would
continue to work with V7.

The upgrade package does not include the necessary card reader, a full
package does.

Hi;

There seems to be some unintentional confusion here, (Maybe I
confused things by having two entirely different issues in one post,
perhaps?)... My reader-writer(dongle) for Babylock Palette Version 6
is fine (As is my reader-writer(dongle) for Singer PSW Version
2.00A)..

It is my Autodigitizing Version 1 dongle that has been destroyed, and
that is the program I am looking for an dongle override/replacement
patch for.

So...

1.) My Babylock Palette Version 6 is working fine. As it is my
understanding that Palette and PE Design are more-or-less identical
programs (other than the name displayed), so I was asking if I bought
a Brother PE Design version 7 "upgrade", would it work correctly with
my Babylock Palette version 6 "dongle" (reader/writer), or do I have
to purchase a Babylock Palette version 7 upgrade? (In other words, are
the Babylock and Brother programs truly identical to the point of
working with each other's reader/writer ?)

2.) My (Inspira) Autodigitizing Version 1 dongle has been
accidentially destroyed, and I need a dongle patch for this program so
that I can use it again. Neither Inspira nor Husqvarna are supporting
this software anymore at all.

OK, got it straight now :)

In the past I've been able to use Palette patches on PE-Design with no
problem. I can't vouch for the future, but they've been bit for bit
identical. Why not use the Palette upgrade - Babylock tends to be
less expensive than Brother for the same thing ... that's why we have
the Babylock machine.

Sorry, can't help there. It's been completely discontinued. I do see
used one on e-bay, in the box, with dongle, for a 'buy-it-now' price
of US$150 and US shipping from Dallas TX of $25.

I do seem to remember that a dongle-free (cracked) version of
Autodigitizing Version 4 was posted on alt.binaries.crafts.pictures
4-5 years ago. It wasn't Inspira, but name changes don't mean much.
Whether this is the same as yours I don't know.

The Babylock Palette vs Brother PE Design upgrade: The reason I asked
this question is precisely because of the widely varying pricing out
there.. If I can get the Palette upgrade for less money than the PE
Design upgrade, I will do precisely that. I am shopping completely
online for this item, as we do not have a Babylock dealer here anymore
at all, and even the nearest Brother dealer is 3-4 hours away (which
makes getting my Esante serviced a real chore).

"Autodigitizing" was produced by Inspira for H.Viking. There were a
total of 4 versions released. It is my understanding that the company
(Inspira) broke up, and the main people involved have gone on to work
on "Generations".

Why do I use so many different digitizing software packages? Probably
because I can't decide which system I like best, so I keep investing
money in different ones, hoping to find a clear winner.

Thanks for your response..
