How do the recipes load in sleeve? Top or side?

The divided sheets that hold recipe cards load from the left side. Full page recipes load from the top.

The recipes are available to download in e-book format, they do not come in the box- if you check your email form Sunsella which you received after purchase with tips the link to download is described there- otherwise contact Sunsella through Amazon and they will tell you how to download.

I open the side and then the pouch can stand up on its own. I use one hand to help hold the slot open and either just pour (as the slot is on the long side) or use a spoon to spoon in the food. For example, I've used a large jar of apple sauce and just poured it in fairly easily without a spoon.

There is an Import function on the File menu. You select the file used by Master Cook, then choose a cookbook or create a new cookbook. The Help function gives details for different versions of Master Cook. Go to the Index tab and type "Import", then hit enter. Master Cook appears on the list of items to be imported.

I keep the in the box they came in. It is a form fitting sleeve and fits right in my drawer.

I just leave the top I open when I scan books, and it works fine. You can save a default with your preferences, so I'd guess you can set it to economy (grayscale). I've never tried though. I usually use color.

The cardboard sleeve it comes I has a Velcro closure to reuse. I keep it in that so there are no accidental slices. Works great.

The disk was snug. If you had the notes you may have to scan them reduce the size a little bit then print on card stock. This may be the best way to do that.

Yes, they all load from the top. Unless you put them in upside-down...then they all load from the bottom. Pictures (and coupons) fall out that way, so you discover your mistake pretty quickly.

You can't. That old version is no longer supported. It will NOT run correctly on the latest versions of Windows either. It fact it usually makes people's recipes completely disappear from the program as explained here: http://support.mastercook.com/entries/22055813-Recipes-Disappear-from-Cookbook The current version of MasterCook is designed and compatible with the latest versions of Windows. It can use all of your files from version 9 too as explained here: http://support.mastercook.com/entries/22017556-Transferring-Recipes-and-Files-from-a-Previous-Version

You don't. This is a really annoying aspect of this slicer. If you look at the picture, the slats on the back half are about half the width of the slats on the front half. If you want a loaf of uniform slices, you have to move the bread or you'll get half wide and half skinny slices. It bugs me.

By the way, I found a notebook at Walmart that will also fit these particular recipe holders. It is in the photo album section and made by Pinnacle Frames and Accents. It's only $6.

We may not be on the same page. The device doesn't actually store recipes. It provides measurement conversions and allows you to scale up a recipe, but it's really quantity-by-quantity. So for example, if you had a recipe that said it was 8 people, and used 3 lb. of chicken, 2 cups chicken stock, 1/2 tsp pepper, and 2 TBS of garlic, and you wanted to scale it up for 15 people, you'd store the conversion factor, but would then have to perform 4 separate calculations, one for each ingredient, and write each one down as you went. That's really what it does best. It will also convert, e.g. TBS's to cups, etc. Hope that helps. We may not be on the same page. The device doesn't actually store recipes.

Yes. There are two plexiglass sheets, one above and one below the cookbook, and they just lift out of their slots.

The keeper is spiral bound. I can't see how to add more pages. There are 35 plastic page protectors. 70 recipes if you use front and back. I got these for my daughters, so it is as if I gave them a "family favorites cookbook" when they married. I got one for myself as well and use it for holiday traditions.

My favorite sources of recipes are (free) Email/RSS feed subscriptions & Twitter for: Kalyn's Kitchen; SkinnyTaste.com; Once Upon A Chef; Food52. After that, do a Google Search for specific food items, entrees, food ingredients and look at a few of the plethora of recipes that will be presented. 'Save As. . .' these recipes into a folder in your computer 'Documents' library. I also print the recipes I like. There is a 'print' button in most recipes. OR, for practical prints with pictures-- I copy/paste the text into a Word Document taking each little section of text at a time. Some pictures will print to a reasonable size but most will take up whole pages of paper. 'Copy' or 'Save As' them to a working folder in your 'Pictures' library; use a picture editor like "Paint.net" (free download for individuals/personal use) if you do not already have a suitable editor to resize them. I find most pics can be reduced 50% or sometimes to ~30.0 KB and the final print will be easy to put on the print-out page so you can have a picture. Double-spaced text (Ingredients?) can be single-spaced, other editing done, a By-Line added so you will know later where the recipe originated. Comments that add to the recipe can be included this way with much editing to eliminate waste space and items. Then 'Print' the final version you made in Word, 3-hole punch the page(s) and store in a 3-ring binder. Most of my personally edited recipe prints take up one or two pages (printed on both sides of a sheet of paper) complete with one or two pictures and the comments that provide tips & variations. Clear package-sealing tape can be used on one side of these multiple sheets to hold them together in the binder. Punch holes after taping. The tape also reinforces the edge for the holes if needed. If you do not have Word, "Open Office" is good and it is a free download; be very careful where you download it from.

I use only the top tier with the little squares in it- I but a bento band around it and then I put it in a BYOB bag so it sits flat on bottom- those bags are stretchy-- ;)
