Hi everyone,

I have restored the MPD server and MPD applications should now be able to be activated. Please message me if you don't know your password and I will send it to you.

You should also be able to redeem pattern credits. Please let me know of any issues.

Thanks,
Craig

Redeeming pattern credits does not work for me.

Craig, the computer that I have my Livingsoft products on is unavailable right now. Can I download the updates from a different computer with Windows or can I download from a MAC?
Thanks,
Andrea

Craig,
I think it might be user error. I was hoping to shop for a pattern online and purchase it with my credits. Am I mistaken?

Craig, Thank you for what you are doing for us.
I have been able to activate some of my precious unused credits.

Does this mean that MPD has life again? I can't imagine that Kaaren wouldwant it to be inactive.

If you haven't been following MPD website was almost completely shut down, then the Facebook group started & Craig eventually found so we could have our failing pattern credits and reistrations fixed. This might only be available for another year.

Oh, I was hoping that someone had purchased MPD and that it was now going forward again.

So what is exactly the status. I paid one heck of a lot of money for software and patterns that I needed and have actually been sewing with them for years. Now, as I'm having a problem, I discover not one word was sent to steadfast users of the software, and if I'm reading this correctly, I don't have any actions left unless I buy Dress Shop? I just checked the price, and I hope someone is kidding. While it isn't as much as I spent with MPD, it is still far out of my wheelhouse. I have better things to spend my money on. Taking a class on altering paper patterns is one.

I can't really help you with MPD issues. However, I thought I had seen in passing that the MPD server is back and that MPD users can use their MPD stuff again.

As for Dress Shop App, yes, I agree that the pricing of Dress Shop 9 Pro is not for the faint of heart . However, I believe that features- and capabilities-wise, Dress Shop 9 Pro is without peers.

Yes, it was frustrating, but for the moment we still have activation, and MPD is working & allows us to use up any pattern credits we have owing - it is just that MPD has now moved to facebook.

Now if Micropain & HP would just create the drivers to do banner lengths of paper in Win 10 I would be a happy pigeon - (Mac Drivers still work)

Do I understand that MPD it totally dead to activation?

I was Beta tester for Kaaren and have all the patterns etc. but am facing the need for a new computer.

If I can't activate MPD all my patterns and the ability to print will be lost.

Is there any way the value can be transferred to Dress Shop so I could get everything?

Check the My Pattern Designer Facebook page. They have the installation master posted. It should work with your old password. You just can’t get anything new.
