Cricut Maker subscription is a paid plan, popularly known as Cricut Access, offered by Cricut on the Design Space app. It offers thousands of ready-to-make projects. In other words, the Cricut Maker subscription is a paid version of the Design Space where you get unlimited fonts, designs, and templates. However, sometimes, it can show unexpected problems, such as technical glitches. You can notice Design Space freezing or lagging while working, or it doesn’t allow you to access the paid designs and fonts. If you’re stuck on these issues, let’s find quick solutions to them. 

Problem 1: Design Space Fails to Access Paid Content

In this problem, your Design Space doesn’t allow you to access the paid designs, fonts, or templates even though you paid for Cricut Access. So, when you click on any paid design, it says “Buy” and shows a price tag. It can happen when you’ve signed in to the wrong account, for which you didn’t pay for the subscription. If you’re facing this issue, let’s check some of the easiest fixes. 

Solution 1: Restart the Design Space 

When the Design Space can’t access paid designs, it can be a technical issue. Therefore, you need to restart this software to make it run normally. 
  1. Close the software on the computer completely. 
  2. Then, wait for 1-2 minutes and reopen it. 
Now, check if the problem is resolved and if the Design Space is accessing the paid designs. If the problem persists, check out the next method. 

Solution 2: Check if You’re Using the Right Account

It is possible that you’ve signed into an incorrect account. As a Cricut user, you can have more than one account. So, maybe you’ve mistakenly signed into a non-subscribed account.  You must take the account details using the steps given below: 
  1. On the Design Space page, go to the top right corner.
  2. Check your name or email address. Confirm whether it’s the same account you subscribed to. 
  3. If not, log out and sign in with the correct account. 
To sign in, you just need to enter your email address and the correct password, which you must have created while signing up for the account. 

Problem 2: Design Space Runs Slowly When Using Paid Content

Design Space lagging (running slower) while using paid content is completely obvious. This is because Design Space is a software that needs updates from time to time. If you are using it and not checking for its latest update, it will lag. And when you’re using paid content, it’s a must. In some other cases, a fault in the internet connection is also possible. So, let’s check what you can do to resolve it. 

Solution 1: Restart Your Wireless Router

Internet connection can fluctuate and cause problems with your Design Space. Therefore, restarting your router can be the right way to fix that. 
  1. First, unplug the router’s power cable from the main power outlet on the wall. 
  2. Then, wait for 1-2 minutes and plug the power cable into the power outlet on the wall. 
Then, check if the Design Space still lags. If the issue persists, update the Design Space. 

Solution 2: Update Design Space 

Updating the Design Space is a powerful method to fix this problem. Check how you can do this: 

Download: 

  1. Go to the three lines at the top left of the Design Space page. It’s the menu. 
  2. Then, select the Settings option and then click Check for Updates. 
  3. Check if there are any updates available. If yes, allow it to download. 
The updated software will be downloaded to your computer. You need to install it. 

Install: 

  1. Go to the Downloads folder on your computer. 
  2. Then, double-click on the software’s file, which is saved as setup.exe. 
  3. Now, click Yes when your computer asks you to run this on the computer. 
  4. Finally, an installation window will start installing your software. 
Finally, you have updated the Design Space. Your problem will be solved after this.
