I have a Toyota RS2000 sewing machine. I threaded the machine as I usually do, and went to machine up a seam, but the thread kept coming out of the needle when I press the foot to sew. I don't know why. I tried different settings, but it still kept popping out of the eye in the needle! Can you help please?

Normally you should have a long trail of thread at the back of your needle when you start to sew. If you do and the thread keep coming out you should change your needle and make sure it is installed correctly.
Either hold the tail of the thread till you actually get a couple stitches into the seam, OR pull a longer thread tail out of the upper thread only. My machine does the same thing if I don't do one of those two steps. The upper thread gets pulled backwards--out of the needle--as the upper thread tension takes up the excess thread.
This always happens to me when the tension is too tight. It can also break as well.
Aside from the answers above, Ive also had this happen when the eye of the needle has a split in it. Replacing with a fresh needle is necessary in this case.
You tension maybe too tight!
