I have a Janome 9500, Magic Box Elite and a Dell laptop with Vista. I cannot get the magic box to work. While at a sewing expo today someone suggested that perhaps it is not compatible with Vista. Anyone else have this problem? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Right now I have very expensive dust collectors.

You should probably get in touch with the manufacturer of the Magic Box to see if they can help.

You don't really need the magic box to transfer designs to the 9500. You can do it with CF cards, a card reader, and an adapter as shown HERE.

I used to have a Magic Box and used Magic Box Elite running on my Vista 32 computer. Just make sure that Windows recognizes the box. You may just have a USB recognition problem.
