Preferences or email filters may be blocking our email.
Most email filters control unwanted email by blocking email addresses originating from an unwanted source. If you suspect that an email filter is preventing you from receiving your order and shipping confirmations for orders from our site, you will need to add our email address enews@AnniesCatalog.com to your address book or list of approved senders. This applies to the following:

Stand Alone Applications
Email programs installed on your computer to control junk mail (such as Human Authenticator, HushMail Spam Control, Mailblocks, Spam Arrest or Spam-Sieve).

Internet Service Providers
Add AnniesCatalog.com to your safe sender's list
Some internet service providers filter email. You may want to contact your internet service provider to confirm that you are able to receive emails from enews@AnniesCatalog.com. If you continue to experience issues receiving our emails, you may want to subscribe to a free email service provider (such as Gmail, AOL Mail or Hotmail) to receive emails from us. You will need to update your account on the site, and re-sign up for your daily emails.

Corporate Email
If the email address you entered for your order is a corporate email address and your company's network filters for junk email or email that is not business related you may not receive the confirmation or shipping status emails.

Your Computer
If your email program allows you to set up restrictions around incoming emails you may want to review this as a possible cause.

I think I saw one of your patterns posted on someone's site. What should I do?
Please contact us via a simple form located here.
I have questions about the class videos.

Are there system requirements to view the classes?
If your computer system was manufactured in the past few years, you should be set-up to view the classes. We do recommend making sure your browser is up-to-date, whether you use Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari or others, as that will help ensure your experience is superb.

Can I view the classes if I have dial-up Internet?
If you can successfully view other videos online, then your dial-up connection should be adequate. We do not recommend this access speed for an optimal experience, unfortunately.

Can I access the classes from my mobile device?
You can access your purchased classes from any mobile device, both tablet and non-tablet (phones, iPod Touch, etc.) but our classes are best viewed on tablets or computers.
