Needle broke on initial start of sewing. Noticed also (now) that the needle is slightly right of the center of presser foot. Had to hand turn the machine (axle?)to lift broken needle to get hoop off of machine. Was hoping turning it off & back on would return it to center but needle still not lined up with pressure foot...? Any suggestions??

Is the needle lined up with the needle plate hole? If so, can you do a "Headup" command in "Maintenance", "Head Timing", "Headup"?
Is the Presser foot bent? If the needle lines up with the needle plate hole, it may be.
Are all of the takeup levers AND needle bars in the up position and lined up with each other respectfully? If not , with the E-stop depressed, turn the Z-axis shaft by hand until they are. Disengauge the E-stop....then.... if the needle is lined up with the needle plate hole.....try the "Headup" process again.
Go into "Maintenance", "Steppers" and click "Home" in the "Color Change" column. This should bring everything back to it's home position and get the needlecase back in position.

Sewingallnight?
Just as a bit of friendly advice. Use adhesive sprays sparingly (any of them ) and only when absolutely necessary. It does have it's uses but continued excessive use will cause you some grief.
Sticky backing is even worse...
