So what were the errors? They fall into two categories: Non-strict dates and non-standard GEDCOM tags. I think it would be nice of FTM to ask which text editor to use when launching text files (something Reunion does) to prevent this kind of mistake. Now, whether this is misconfiguration on my part with Parallels, or whether FTM actually created a file that is a Windows Notepad file, I’m not 100% sure, but I can say that this feature of Parallels has never before launched windows when the file wasn’t actually a Windows file, so I’m a bit confused. Even though Windows wasn’t running at that time, Parallels is ‘smart’ enough to know that a Windows filetype was launched and will try to launch it in Windows.

Now you may be asking yourself how that is possible since I’m on a Mac – the answer being that I have a copy of Windows that runs in Parallels, an emulator. I told it to load the error log, and something a bit bizarre happened – it launched the log in Notepad for Windows. The process was fairly quick, but it came up with over a hundred errors. So I exported a new GEDCOM from Reunion and told FTM to import it. As I have an account already, this doesn’t affect me, but I wonder what features I will be missing if I decide to cancel my subscription to ? There’s also the issue that you need to have a paid account with to use this feature, obviously. There’s no way to know what information is being sent back and forth. Having access to the whole tree is a whole different issue, and not one I’m sure they’ve addressed. When you’re a member of their web site, you have ultimate control over what Ancestry has access to because they only know what you put on their site. The downside of integration is the real question of how they protect your privacy. If you want to publish your tree to that is possible, but from what I understand syncing data between the online tree and the tree on your computer is not supported currently in the Mac version of FTM – but it is supported on the Windows version. This is a very nice feature, especially since it doesn’t require you to upload your whole tree to where others can see it. The good side of the connection to is that it allows the program to access and try to find records connected to the people in your tree. I certainly don’t like that it slows down the program. I’m not sure how I feel about this connection from a privacy point of view. Things are a bit slow here, as I think it’s trying to communicate with. As I have an account already, I enter my login details and continue.

It tells me that the program includes a free 2 week trial of, and asks if I want to sign up, or if I already have an account to enter my login information. Not exactly light-weight, but disk space is cheap these days, so that doesn’t bother me very much.Īfter installing it, I run the newly installed program and find it is a bit clunky when launching.
Launching the installer and running it, installs almost 500mb of stuff on your computer. It comes on a single CD with a simple installer program on it.

I pre-ordered FTM for Mac when it was initially announced, and received it just recently.
