My Cricut Cake makes a loud noise when it starts up &amp; it doesn't change from the startup screen - says something like "Cricut v2.31.."? Please help!!!

Mine did the same thing. It made a grinding sound and would never go back into the start position. I called support...everything, they couldn't/wouldn't help. They were going to give me a small credit to buy another one. I declined since this one had broke within a year. I decided that since it was broke anyway and I couldn't use it, that before it made 'in position' beeps to start, I would manually move the cutter all the way over into the start position(while it was making the grinding noise). There is a trigger in the start position that tells the machine that it is ready to start. I did this SEVERAL times with no success. Machine was useless. Then I tried again and I must have had the right timing. It has worked ever since...no grinding noise. It's all about timing and I don't guarrantee my fix will work for you. I figured the machine was a waste anyway, so I might as well try it (even though in my mind I figured I would break the gears by doing this. Didn't matter...it didn't work). If you are ready to write it off or throw it out the window...give it a try.

I have the older Cricut Expression and it doesn't work connecting it to my Mac. Very disappointing. My computer can't find the cricut when I try to connect the two.

The Cricut Imagine has special mats that it is able to read. They are the only ones compatible with this machine. You can identify them by the black line around the grid. Hope this helps!

Honestly, I do not know. I irdered the cord because I wanted to get into the Cricut craftroom, but never have been able to. :(

This embosser is the current model but NOT the NEW ONE. That one is called New Blue Cricut Cuttlebug. It was just released there IS a new Cuttlebug and according to this new link they can be pre-ordered at Amazon and available Nov 1 2013, but I cannot find that option on Amazon's site???? http://www.4-traders.com/news/Cricut-Introduces-New-Blue-Cricut-Cuttlebug-Embosser-and-Die-Cutter--17332113/ The current model hasn't been out very long (a few years maybe) and was not as nice as the original model they replaced it with. Maybe this new one will be better! Longer plates and loading shelf would be nice!! That's all I know! Mine broke in earlier this year and I went out and got a Tim Holz Vagabond which is WONDERFUL and much more versatile and only about $139 last I saw here at Amazon with free shipping. My choice hands down to Cuttlebug, and if I wanted a manual machine again I would buy the Sizzix Big Shot which interchanges with all the Vagabond plates etc!

Call Technical support. They have been absolutely wonderful with me on every occasion! and, the only other thing I would suggest is with the new cartridge of black in place, disconnect your printer from the electrical outlet and shut down your computer. Then, restart your computer and restart your printer to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise, call KM. They are wonderful! And, these printers are wonderful although a bit "sensitive."

When it is idle, it doesn't make any noise, it goes into a sleep default mode. It can sit for days without any noise, until I send it a job, then it rumbles awake and makes a lot of noise. When I rotate the carousel, it also makes an inordinate amount of noise as it cycles through each color.

Yes, the only thing you need to make sure of is that your Cricuit firmware is 2.43 and below. This firmware is typically found in the older, original Cricuits.

I had this same problem. I have two of these humidifier and had them for two years. Both of them started make a grinding sort of noise after two years. I researched online and was ready to buy a new one, but wanted to know if there was any way of fixing it. The answer is yes!!! Check out this video and this could solve the loud noise your humidifier is making: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjRDjOL8nCY. I followed the video and it fixed the noise problem and humidifier works great and quiet!!! Very grateful for this video!

Hello Tatiana, what do you mean like a sponge? Also what brand of fondant are you using, not all brands works with the mat.

Mine did that too from day one. The box it came in was damaged and I assume that is what caused the weird noises. It wasn't worth the time and money to ship it back so I just used it until it started giving me uneven heat. Then I junked it.

No it doesn't make noise but the teaser can clip off. You could try slipping a bell on the line then reclipping the teaser back on.

I believe I just changed my screen saver . I had this computer a few months ago and returned it because of the high pitch ringing noise . Hopefully yours is working out well for you .

I have this same problem. It's loud and I can't for the life of me figure out why it started or how to stop it. I'll have to buy a new machine (not this one).

The first time I used it I did get a beep, but the second ( last ) time I used it I noticed also that there was no beep?! So I just had to try to time it and "peek" when I thought they were done. Sorry that I'm not much help! Same problem here....but I do think I'm making the best waffles I've made and can do a lot quickly when I have visitors.

Missing colours sounds like a clogged printhead. As for the cartridge...I don't know why

I made a loaf last week in mine and it was making a loud noise which it hadn't done before. The dough looked too dry so I added water a little at a time, and the noise did go away.
