Cura not working on Fusion 360

I've never had a problem designing parts on Fusion 360, clicking on "3d Print", selecting the part, clicking "Cura" as the print utility and hitting "OK". Cura then pops up and I slice it and save it on my Ultimaker SD for printing. Now Cura won't even pop up after selecting the part and clicking "OK" like it always did before. I've uninstalled Cura and reinstalled it twice with no luck. I even upgraded to 4.7.1. Any suggestions? Jim

    Does it work when Cura is already open? I am on the Mac and for it works only when Cura is open because Fusion is not allowed to start a new application.

    Sorry about the delay in responding to your answer but no-it still does not work when Cura is open

    You need to integrate Cura manually as with each new major Cura version the place where it is installed is changing. Once you told Fusion where Cura was installed it will find this specific version. ... up to the next version :)

    Sure it did. I use it quite often and did it just a few minutes ago.

    It did for you-not for me. I was enjoying this hobby until the new Cura upgrade . I haven't been able to print since.

    Hi @Jim8163,

     

    as you did not tell us what kind of op system you use, Windows, Apple or perhaps Linux?

    This and the version of the one you're using.

    Could be a number of things preventing this to work.

     

    However, there might be one not so known..  Did you renew your Fusion 360?

     

    If not, -you would not be able to send any stl file to your printer -but you might still be able to make drawings..

     

    Thanks

    Torgeir

    Sorry I didn't became an email from the forum.

     

    @Jim8163,

    that's correct, our systems are running quite good and this is why I gave you the hint in good faith.

    Anyway, please ignore my comment.

    Have a nice day,

    DD

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
