it sounds like the machine needs to be serviced & the top tension needs to be checked

yes, but since you said the machine is 7 years old, & used extensively, thenI suggest to have to machine serviced if it has not been.it could be a computer problem or mechanical problem

Mine did this, after service it was fine. But it certainly depends on the fabric you are using, and the stabilizer.

this website sayd it has them
have you tried looking on line ? And often ebay has the 9000 discs

In the instruction book, it does not say that you need to oil your machine, but most dealers suggest oiling once every 8-10 hours of sewing.

You can put one drop of oil on the wick that is located under your bobbin case. If you don't have any get a bottle of sewing machine oil from your dealer or any sewing machine dealer close to you. Remember, you only need the smallest amount of oil.

Please let me know if this was helpful to you by rating my solution.

Have a great day!

yes it should be in your manual. Moving parts need oil, use only clear machine oil no 3-1

I have had the same thing on my 11000 Janome. Asked the repair guy, but did not get an answer perfectly. It could be the mother board from what I gathered, it happens very infrequently but you loose everything and have to start over again. Very frustrating if you made any alterations to the pattern-I have learned to save everything in case it happens. Then I just start over but it is at least saved.

You had to transfer the design into your memory card from your pc.
now,you can use your pc card adapter to transfer that design into your machine.

1 thing more understand that you transfer nothing into a thing like pc card adapter , you transfer it into memory card and make this memory card read to your machine by pc card adapter

i have checked and your machine supports .jef format so there is no compatibility issue.

see, The actual process is this

1.Included is a 256MB CompactFlash memory card to store your embroidery designs.
2.With the USB CompactFlash Reader/Writer, you will be able to download designs from the internet and save them to the memory card.
3.With the PC Card adapter, you will be able use the designs on the Janome 9500, Embroidery Machines.

this will solve your problem.
Please accept this solution if you are helped.
Thanks

hi,
judging by the picture, it loolks like the machine is the same as the 9000 and 8000, in that there is a slot for the disc roughly near the on/ off button. When the disc is in all the way, a button pushes out and that;'s how you get it out again

i think you have something catch on the tension guides. Try to clean out anything you can see and pull a thread towards the needle. I have done this with a small knot to snare anything but be gentle. Also, rethread carefully.
Try cleaning the bobbin case too

the bobbin case will fit in easily when you have it in the correct position; the bobbin part in to the front, turn slightly to the left then push down. look at the manual, they are easily found on line if you have lost it. you need to take the metal plate off first by removing the screw, which is how you get the case out in the first place
