visit this community: The Wonders of new MasterCook 14 at http://community.cookinglight.com/archive/index.php/t-153395.html Thought it's for version 14, there are 2 great ladies there that can probably help you out, one of whom is a MasterCook support person.

As I recall, there was a significant change in the file format from Mastercook 4 to Mastercook 5. I'm not certain if version 11 can import from version 4. I just took a quick look at the forums and it seems that it will work just fine reading files from as far back as version 2. You just need to open the cookbook file (.MCF) with version 11. There is more detail available at www.mastercook.com, look under "import and export".

Importing Recipe ML, MasterCook MXP & MX2 and Meal-Master files To import a file: Using MacGourmet, choose File &gt; Import... Choose the file you want to import and choose the appropriate file format, RecipeML, MasterCook MXP & MX2 or Meal-Master. This is copied from MacGoumet Deluxe's help. I like it.

Sure! Just transfer them with the little cable that came with your phone. Plug it into your computer, navigate to the right folders, drag and drop! Simple!

I'm not all that computer savvy Wayne. I just dragged and dropped the files which obviously was the wrong thing to do. I think I did copy them to DCIM. How do I copy the files to the root directory?

Not really sure, but if I had to guess, it be in the early 90's. I have all the master cook cd's, downloaded all of them to fix there many mistakes and/or creator. I switched over to a new site called COOK'n and they are on version 11. Much better program than master cook who I think let the update's go. They were focused on there games which brings in more monies. COOK'n is far better program, but has it's problem's. They do take your questions, suggestions and work on the fixes. I have emailed master cook many times and never received a response from them. Good luck

No. The PC might have come with a short-term trial version (I don't recall) but you would have to buy or import a copy for permanent use. (I loaded my old copy onto the new PC, and it works fine.)

If you can scan your recipes into your computer you can cut and paste the document into the new recipe option of your account at Key Ingredient. It is really simple to copy the whole recipe into one of the blocks on the template and then cut and paste them into where they belong. On many of the recipes I have from magazines and books I was able to find an identical recipe or one that was close and I used the Cookmark button from Key Ingredient that is in my Bookmarks to import the recipe to my account. I typed the rest in myself. Hope that helps.

There is a cook book already loaded. You can make your own adding recipes or purchase other digital cookbooks. The home page provides new recipes all the time that you can save easily. I have found this software very easy and love finding lots of new recipes everyday. Easy to capture recipes from almost any source.

Can't tell you about the warranty, but DEFINITELY NO USER GUIDE. You're on you're own. I paid $100 to have my info transferred from old computer to new, and they tried to make it as much as possible like Windows 7, with start buttons, etc. Still getting used to and trying to find old programs I had. I'm a chef and love to cook: over 400 recipes. Took a long time to find them (under "recent places") but unable to access them. Error messages, or some strange code. Guess we will be going back to computer shop to see if they can solve.

I'm having exactly the same problem. I can get the menu to display (the DMPort menu), but no video or pictures.Interested in any feedback from anyone who has tried this.

Since the recipes are easier to type in on the computer using the KeyIngredient.com website, I simply Google the recipe and locate it online, then use the Cookmark bookmark to add it into the website then sync. That's it. Just go to keyingredient.com, and go to the Cookmark part under your account, and move the Cookmark bookmark into your browser's bookmark bar. It really is that simple.The worst thing that can happen is that you might need to do a little proofreading to be sure you don't post extraneous comments into the directions section, and you might have to highlight, copy and past the ingredients in if they show up blank.

Yes indeed, you can put any recipe you want in it. I had alot already saved on my computer (I too keep my recipes electronically). I just copied the recipes and pasted into the recipe reader. You can add your own picture or one from the internet (with the URL). I absolutely love mine. Because it is WiFi, after you add them, you just have the reader update from the internet. You can share your recipes with others or keep them private (you pick the setting after adding the recipe). You make your own cookbooks and can put the recipes into those catagories, so easy. If you daughter gets one I hope she enjoys it as much as I do. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Yes indeed, you can put any recipe you want in it.

Good Question, I haven't had the opportunity to test it out. I'm not sure if the file type will be support. I'll test it and send out an update. Bobby

Normally you would select them by pressing the control key and clicking on each song you want to transfer. If you want to transfer ALL, select the first in the list and hold the shift key while using the Down Arrow or End key to highlight the entire list. Right click on a selected title and select "Copy" or Drag & Drop the list into the desired folder. Much easier said than done! :-) Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. - Mike
