If the top tension is on 0 I suspect the problem begins in the bobbin, make sure first of all the bobbin is turning anti clockwise in the bobbin case, when you pull the thread through the bobbin case there should be slight resistence, if it is too loose turn the screw on the bobbin case clockwise about a quarter of a turn to tighten, if it is not making muh difference you may have fluff stuck under the spring on the bobbin casem take a fine sewing needle and slide it under the spring to see if you can get any fluff out, top tension about 4 or 5

Your space is not formatted correctly to the size of the hoop. For example if the hoop is 5x7 your design has to fit within that space, and the space cannot be bigger than 5x7. Strange but true and it will fix the reboot and shut down issue.

The issue you're experiencing could be caused by a few different factors, including a bent needle, incorrect threading, or a malfunctioning bobbin case .
I would recommend checking the following:

Check that the machine is threaded correctly and that the thread is not tangled or caught anywhere.
Inspect the bobbin case to ensure that it is properly installed and functioning correctly.
If the issue persists, I would recommend contacting a Janome dealer or repair center for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose the issue and provide a solution .

I've been trying out a New Home, Janome 641 for my granddaughter. It will only sew backwards.
A new old machine for you I assume.For older mechanical only machines, reverse stitch is an exaggerated long stitch length that changes the angle and contact time of fabric to the feed dogs. Try setting stitch length to minimum and straight stitch. Check feed dog up/down is functional (if featured). It could also be the reverse linkage is simply stuck and the machine is in need of a thorough clean/lube.I looked for a manual but so far have not found. I'll append if I find.
Janome Mystyle 22 skips stitches on the buttonhole function
If your Janome Mystyle 22 sewing machine is skipping stitches specifically when using the buttonhole function, there could be a few possible causes for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Needle: You mentioned that you have already changed the needle, but it's worth double-checking that you are using the correct needle type and size for the fabric you are working with. Ensure that the needle is inserted correctly and tightened securely.
2. Thread tension: Improper thread tension can cause skipped stitches. Make sure the upper thread and bobbin thread are properly threaded and that the tension settings are adjusted correctly for the fabric you are using. You may need to experiment with different tension settings to achieve the best results.
3. Buttonhole foot: Check that the buttonhole foot is attached securely and positioned correctly. Ensure that it is clean and free from any lint or debris that may be affecting its performance.
4. Feed dogs: The feed dogs underneath the fabric may not be gripping the fabric properly, especially when working with lighter fabrics. Ensure that the feed dogs are clean and free from any obstructions. You can try using a fabric stabilizer or placing tissue paper under the fabric to provide more traction for the feed dogs.
5. Lubrication: While you mentioned that the machine was recently serviced, it's possible that the buttonhole mechanism could benefit from some additional lubrication. Consult the user manual or contact Janome's customer support to inquire about lubrication points and recommended lubricants for your specific model.
6. Stitch length and speed: Adjusting the stitch length and sewing speed can sometimes help improve buttonhole stitching. Experiment with different stitch length settings to see if it makes a difference in stitch quality.
If you have tried all these steps and the issue persists, it may be best to consult a professional technician or reach out to Janome's customer support for further assistance. They will be able to provide specific guidance and recommendations based on your sewing machine model.
