Bobbin won't wind on Singer futura CE-100

I've done everything correctly as per instructions, but the bobbin will not wind. It doesn't turn at all and beeps after a second. It does this twice, first when I press the foot pedal and then when I release it. It has worked properly in the past. Thanks

My singer hasn't wound bobbins for years and I don't care because I use a Side Winder bobbin winder. It's much easier than takining the thread off the machine anyway. Available from Hancock, Jo Ann or even Wal Mart for about $30.

SOURCE: singer futura ce-100 wont start

Do you still have the embroidery arm attached? If you do, the sewing function of the machine won't work.

SOURCE: I have a Singer Futura

Go to singerco.com and see if their under their frequently asked questions may have your answer. You can also order a manual for your machine, for $15. They have a great customer service staff, try calling them at 1-800-4singer. Good luck, hope you get sewing again with your machine. One time my girlfriend found out the beep meant all was good, so hopefully you are going to have a good laugh over the problem, she did.

SOURCE: beeping

I have had the same problem with my machine as well. have you tryed, keeping it hooked to your computer while sewing, even if you are not using your embroidery unit it still needs to be hooked up, that seems to have helped some with the beeping.

When I go to fill my bobbin spool, the machine just beeps at me. I've tried everything. Please help!

If you try to wind the bobbin with the embroidery unit on, you need to send a design to the machine before trying to wind the bobbin. If the embroidery unit is off, you should wind the bobbins without any problems

My singer futura ce100 bobbin case (the metal part that actually holds the bobbin) keeps popping out. I do not know how to put it back in correctly in the seat. There is no diagram anywhere for that. It...

It may be that the silver square object in front of it is to tight. I had this happen and I loosened that up with small screwdriver and put bobbin case back in and it helped. Had to play with it for a while. Or It may be that the bobbin case has chip out and need to replace that.

I have a Futura CE-100 and got a new laptop with Windows 7 and can not get the software to install. Gets to 100% and won't complete. How can I fix this?

First, there's a Windows 7 update available at www.Futura-support.com. Click on the lefthand side, then on CE100/150/250/350, etc, etc. Follow the directions CAREFULLY. First, be sure the uninstall ALL Futura software you've attempted to install and reboot your PC.

If for some reason this doesn't solve you're problem, I've posted a set of instructions at http://www.fixya.com/support/r8955271-use_machine_windows_7_or_vista that will allow you to run the software under XP on your Windows 7 machine. This is a bit more complicated a solution, but if you follow the instructions carefully, you should be fine. Try the Futura update first, though.

I hope this solves you're problem. Happy embroidery!

Bobbin case futura singer sewing machine came out

The opening fits on the right side, toward back. There is the silver ring with the slot in it for the bobbin. That slot is facing the sewer.

Singer Futura 350

Dear Wendy,

The E4, error message means the safety device is activated. Machine is locked up due to thread entangled with the bobbin case. Remove the needle plate and bobbin case. Check for any thread around the hook area. Also check your handwheel. It should turn freely. Good Luck
