Help a poor newbie - Silhouette Studio & Cameo 3

OldGuy

Hi, I just purchased a new Cameo 3 and downloaded the latest version of Studio. When I open Studio I get a blank main page (Black) - no template.  If I click on ' File; New', nothing happens. 
Is it because I haven't plugged in the device, yet?  You can't design unless a device is active?  
Thanks (I'm sure that this will be the first of many basic questions.)

I would re-install the Studio - it should function with or without the cameo being switched on.  It should also give you the option to use a preset or a blank page.

@OldGuy - welcome to the Make The Cut! software forum. We support users of Make The Cut! and its supported cutters. Your Cameo is not fully supported by Make The Cut! That said, Diana is correct, Silhouette Studio runs independent of a cutter. I have the latest version, and my Silhouette is packed away in a cupboard and has been for years. I can use Studio with no issues.

Thanks.
