First Thank You for this great video AGAIN. Now my question is this. I am helping a friend set up a new computer, we transferred Historian 4 to the new windows 10 computer. No problem, We transferred A4 and A5 to new computer and set it up. The problem is this. She purchased some new Forever Artisan Kits, they went into the download file OK. And did not go directly into her Commercial Art Kit. We had to manually copy and paste the new kits. She is not computer savvy to do that on her own. I have looked around and check all my resources and this video is the closes to addressing the problem. How do we get them to go directly into her Commercial Art Kit folder and appear directly on A5? Thanks Laureen
The auto installer that automatically puts the kit in the commercial art kits folder is not operating properly. The developers are working on a fix. In the meantime, you have to import.
OMG thank You sooooooo much Tameka. I have been looking, reading, researching and trying every thing to a windows 10 problem to trying to see if there was an answer here on P2p. Thank you I will let her know and just sit tight till that fix comes out. Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You, Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,Thank You,
Thank you, Tameka! Love the video and ALWAYS love your Ta Ta at the end!!!!
THANK YOU A MILLION! These videos are so well done and so helpful!
Thanks, wish I had come here sooner ! perfect explanation
I thought I watched a video on importing content from various designers (not pakit form) but I can’t find it anywhere.
Thanks
There was no video Gloria, but this tip might be what you’re thinking of.
I downloaded 2 fonts to artisan. I’ve activated the codes. I can see they are part of the kits, but I am unable to see them under the embellishments. any ideas?
You’ll find the fonts on the Insert Ribbon, under “Fancy”. (I’m assuming you are referring to Alphasets?)
I have imported “Border Maker Digital Edges” from CM (.sbkit) into my software and activated it. I can see it in Windows Explorer and in my SBC4 Library, but when I am in a project, it does not show up when I click on the Content tab. Why does the program not see it? It’s in the same location on my computer as all of my other gazillion packages! Thanks for the video, but it didn’t help my predicament.
The Border Maker Digital Edges won’t show up in the content panel. They are edges, so you’ll find them when you try to cut an edge, for example a shaped edge on the cut and fill ribbon.
Thank you, sooo much! Just when I thought I was making learning progress here!

I am not sure if I was logged in when I posted earlier so, I am VERY confused on were my content is going I watched you video and it did help. However I have 8 Kits all C.M. at this point I can see them all under All Kits however there is 2 in Commercial Art Kits in one in Creative Memories folder and none in personal. Now that I am going to be purchasing other types of kits I would like to get organized. But I do not know how do I just create a folder click and drop or do I need to move it from a folder inside the computer? Also on back to basics I seen someone view their kits under library in alph. order???
Thank You SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much in advance
Click the Green Plus symbol just above your “all files” folder to add another folder. Check out Segment 6 of this portfolio as well: https://www.pixels2pages.net/bluegreen-portfolio-getting-started-with-storybook-creator-4-0/
Thanks Tameka, it showed me some new ways of importing my kits. What if I have saved my commercial art kits in various folders like Digital Kits, Embellishments, do I have to save them only in the Commercial Art Kits, or can I put them in the folders that I already have broken my kits into?
You can save them exactly as you say. I have mine separated by Power Palette, Overlays, Alphasets. I have several Library folders, so you are not limited to just the commercial art kit folder. I just limited to that folder in the video so as not to confuse many people. 🙂
Thankyou Tameka you explain it so clearly.
