Is anyone else having trouble downloading free patterns on here? I never have before, but can't today! They all come up as "cfm" files, not "pdf" files, so all I get is script. Never has happened before. I have a Mac & my adobe reader is upgraded & all that. DH is a techy & checked everything, & still the same, cfm files? So wanted to let you at CT know, so hopefully, it can be fixed soon! Thanks in advance!

Cindy, where do we find that page? I honestly looked, all over this site, before I posted here, & had no luck finding it! So, if you let me know, I will gladly post there too! Thank you so much in advance!...
Comment by Cindy on January 28, 2013 at 8:08pm when you have a problem, go to the admin. page and send them an e-mail so they can fix the problem. They really do appreciate it when we let them know when something is 'off'.
Comment by Barbara Graham on January 27, 2013 at 4:54pm Yes, Carol, thank you for emailing the pattern. It's funny how some computers like the files and some don't. My computer (don't tell it) is not as smart as I think the newer ones are.
Comment by Carol Vickers/OH on January 27, 2013 at 12:31pm I've had problems with that before too. But if I do the "save as" and then open with Adobe, it seems to work. Hope you got what I emailed you Barbara.
Okay, just played with it some more after reading Cat Lady's post, thank you. I click to download, then told it open the file, using Adobe Reader app, & it opened right up. Then, went up to file, & clicked on "Save as" & that worked... I have a Mac, by the way, so this worked on my Mac...
DH also said, they probably have someone new, & young, doing this now & learned in school to save everything as cfm files, & that person needs to be told by CT, to save them as PDF files, for ALL of us. Hoping they read this & fix the problem soon, so we can all go back to printing from pdf files, like we always have here...
Comment by Cat Lady--MO on January 27, 2013 at 6:57am I was also able to download the files. They do come up as a cfm file, but if you hoover at the bottom of the page you should see a line of icons appear that will let you save or print the file.
Comment by Carol Vickers/OH on January 26, 2013 at 10:14pm Barbara, it downloaded OK for me. If you send me your email address, I'll be happy to forward it to you. jcvic@frontier.com
Comment by Barbara Graham on January 26, 2013 at 6:32pm I have tried several times to download one of the patterns. I don't know if it's my computer or a problem with the link. The one I have been trying to get is Minnesota star or something like that. It's the picture that advertises the free patterns.
Comment by Carol Vickers/OH on January 26, 2013 at 6:31pm I just tried and it worked fine....maybe it's fixed now?????????
Comment by Shannon, ON on January 26, 2013 at 1:24pm yes I am having trouble too. :o)
