[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[leonor . bertoni]

I seem to remember someone asking about last names on FTM and some 
instructions being given. I have, accidentally, found some other usual 
information that I do not think was included at the time. If this is all 
stuff that is already well know, I apologize.

It was mentioned before that you need to put backslashes around the last 
name on names that have da, do, de so that it uses only the name after the 
da, do, de as the last name Joao da Costa, I would enter Joao da /Costa/. 
You can also put it at the end of the name to show that there isn't a last 
name, for example; Maria de Jesus, I enter Maria de Jesus // this keeps the 
whole thing as a first name. This saves me from going back and editing all 
the "de something" names.
It does not matter where the name is, if you put the backslashes around it, 
it automatically becomes a last name, this is useful if there is a known 
"apelido". For example; Joao Soares Manteiga, I know that Manteiga was an 
apelido but sometimes it is used as a last name by some of his relatives. I 
enter it as Joao /Soares/ Manteiga. This will sort the name by Soares not 
by Manteiga, but Manteiga will still show. 
I have had a situation where I uploaded my FTM tree to Ancestry and all my 
ancestors come up as "living" because there isn't a "deceased" option on 
FTM. I now just enter "unknown" in the death field. This marks them all 
deceased on Ancestry.

I've been using the FTM 2005 version since it's release. I recently bought
the 2017 .

Not a Fan. A waste of $79.  Very difficult to navigate and I feel poorly
designed.

The only improvement was the ability to create a PDF that was lacking in
the 2005.

I don't want to link every tree I have to Ancestry, so they can throw a
thousand useless "hints" at me.

I'm back to using 2005 for my daily work.

Liz, 

I have Family Tree Maker, and I have not had any problems. One of the best 
features of the Software MacKiev version is that it is possible to link more 
than one family tree to Ancestry. The color coding is also a useful.

Liz,
As far as I remember, some had problems and some didn't.

As for a recommendation, you will have to get what you like and what
appeals to you. I could tell you about this great restaurant by my house,
but my neighbor may tell you it was lousy.

You didn't say what FTM version you had. Kathy Cardoza evaluated one of the

if you search for "Family Tree Maker" and see the post was by Kathy
Cardoza, that's the one you want.

Some were having trouble and some were not.
It's on sale 50% off and I loved the old ones.

Recommendations???

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family tree maker upgrade

[John Athayde]

They’ve been working with Ancestry to work out some of the kinks in the new 
FamilySync. I’ve been using it without issue for the last few beta versions. 
They said they were having some issues with very large trees still, but 
otherwise it’s been pretty smooth for me. Syncing is incredibly fast now. 

If you decide to try it, just create a full backup of your FTM files first. 

I’m using this on macOS, so I can’t speak to it’s stability or issues on 
Windows. I would assume it would be roughly the same, however. 

Cheers,
John Athayde

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

[Cheri Mello]

Actually, as computers evolved from 32bit to 64 bit the industry had to
create programs for the 64 bit. It's the evolving technology. For awhile
there, a way existed to trick the 64 bit into pretending it was a 32 bit. I
can't remember the particulars. It was in a computer class that I took some
years ago. I'm sure that's what the Geek Squad did for you.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

To clarify my post below I will point out I am not computer literate.  For that 
reason I maintain an annual subscription to Best Buy's "Geek Squad" 
professional computer service.  
I believe they were able to convert my 32 bit FTM version 2006 (that's  the 
version that my opening page of my current FTM program still shows)  to run on 
a 64 bit computer.  
My under standing is that Ancestry purchased the rights to FTM about Version 
2006.   During their early ownership they maintained and created changes to the 
program up to about version 8 or 9.  Being uncomfortable with some of the 
changes, I stopped upgrading at Version 2006 and went back to my backup 2006 
version.
My understanding is that Ancestry then developed a completely new and different 
genealogy program (app?).  At some point they developed a conversion program 
for FTM 32 bit to FTM  64 bit.  
When my old computer died, Ancestry had already moved ahead to either Version 
11 or 12. and were no longer supporting FTM 32 OR the conversion program.  In 
working with Ancestry my Geek Squad   agent was able to establish that if I was 
willing to pay for the upgrades of my Version 2006 to Ancestry's Version 
(?)2009 they could convert my Version 2006 (now actually 2009)  to run on a 64 
bit computer. 
So I am now running with some of Ancestry's upgrades that I originally tried to 
avoid but its a small price to pay as I still essentially have the old 
Broderbund program.

Elaine:
Welcome to the Club !
I dropped FTM "Ancestry" when Ancestry started making complicated changes to 
it.   One example: recording of sources !
I bought and have the full Roots Magic version 7  and Legacy 8.0 version's and 
found them both far more complex and difficult to load.  I found these are both 
good and worth while products and have helpful staffing but having FTM I find 
they are more complex than I need. 
So to make a long story short after a lot of blood. sweat, and tears, and my 
Geek Squad help,  I have reverted back to my FTM version 2006.   It still works 
fine,  full fills my every need, is simple, self intuitive, so I intend to keep 
it as long as it works. 
My distress was created when my 32 bit computer died and I had to buy a new 
one.  At that point in time all new computers were 64 bit.  My FTM would not 
run on 64 bit so I had to upgrade FTM to 64.  When Ancestry purchased FTM they 
developed a conversion program.  When my computer died they had developed their 
own new version FTM and no longer supported the original FTM they purchased or 
the conversion program.  Fortunately, my local Geek Squad were able to find a 
way they had made the conversion in the past and were able to upgrade my copy 
of FTM to 64 bit.  
I have been using it since about 1990 . 
In 2004 I used it to publish a158 page Genealogical History of my Sellars 
Family Titled  "NEWFOUNDLAND SELLARS  Facts and/or Hearsay" using Family Tree 
Maker V10.  This version of FTM not only  developed the individual reports and 
charts it created an all name index and identified every page the individual 
was noted on, it collated the reports and numbered the pages consecutively 
starting with the table of contents through the dedication, preface, 
acknowledgements, introduction and all the various reports and charts I elected 
to use.  What more do I need ?  Nothing.  It is a GREAT PROGRAM ! (?App.?)
Copies have been distributed to many public entities, including public 
libraries, historical societies, and town halls, which have been helpful to me 
in collection of data. It is now out of print. 
I would hope that some entity would take an interest in that original 
Broderbund program and maintaining the original self intuitive program concepts 
windows, etc., make and maintain the program to do things like making FTM run 
on a 64 bit program rather than earlier 32 bit  or 16 bit program  or earlier.
I have heard that some company may have purchased from Ancestry the rights to 
FTM ?   Which FTM ?
If any one on the list knows who the company is,  or what the current status is 
I would hope they could share that information with those of  us who are caught 
in this difficult position. 
Good luck in your search.

Hi Sam, 

Even though they don't have an official release date, if your program is having 
problems you can let them know and they will advise you on what to do. When 
they got back to me, they said my program needed to be updated and sent me the 
instructions. Because I was using Mac 3, I qualified for the free upgrade. 
There are options to run it on 3 family computers for a cost. I use it on one, 
so I have no experience with the family share.  Very happy so far.

they got back to me, they said my program needed to be updated and sent me the 
instructions. Because I was using Mac 3, I qualified for the free upgrade. 
There are options to run it on 3 family computers for a cost. I use it on one, 
so I have no experience with the family share.  Very happy so far.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - NeedInfo on New Program

['Denise' via Azores Genealogy]

They were very quick to respond and I had these issues for so ling and now it's 
working well again and I am so happy. I have a very large tree that kept 
freezing and also when I typed in location names I would get the hourglass and 
it would take so long. All is good now and I'm very happy so far. 


I think you will find your issues resolved or can report it and they can look 
into it. 


Good luck!!

Thank you.  While playing around I did see something about free  and three 
computers (I have FTM on 2) and will look into it further when they reply to my 
question about my current FTM 16 (2006) that will not keep my Edit/Notes as I

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

['Denise' via Azores Genealogy]

Hi Elaine,


The upgrade to MacKiev is free for existing customers. Go to their website and 
click around for what you need. http://www.mackiev.com/


What I did was explain the issues I was having and my email was answered within 
1 day. They provided me with the information I needed to download the upgrade 
file. It took about 5 minutes to do. I like the FTM software and I am so glad 
that they took over and addressed issues. The problems I was having are gone 
with the upgrade.


Good luck!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

[Cheri Mello]

Ralph,
As Denise posted, it's MacKiev who now publishes or owns Family Tree Maker.
They plan on keeping it current, which would be Windows 10, 64 bit. And the
same would be for the Mac version with their current Mac OS.

I'm not a computer programmer, but as technology improves, the programs
need to change with them. No company is going to spend the time in
developing a program to work on a 16 bit computer. I can't remember, but
that may be DOS days, without any type of Graphic User Interface (GUI).
It's like cars today. Many don't even need you to put a key in the
ignition. You just need that key fob with you and you push a button to
start the car. Should these car manufacturers have an ignition key as well?
And if they have the keyless with a push button and an key for the ignition
to start the car, why not include that crank to start the car (from the
1920s or something)? And and and and. Lots of technologies have changed
over time: the telephone, stoves/ovens/microwaves, washing machines, lots
of things. I don't know a single person who prefers to wash their clothes
on a wash board. I never hear anyone lamenting about wanting the old
telephone exchanges back. "Hello, operator, give me Thorndale-4567." Yeah,
it's annoying when a change comes in and time needs to be spent in learning
something new. We don't always like change and we grumble about it, but
it's technology and it will continue to evolve.

My genealogy program is "The Master Genealogist" (TMG). It is no longer
published. Is it on this new computer? Yes, I was able to load it and get
it to work *most* of the time (sometimes it doesn't load correctly into
Windows 10). Am I going to be using it in 5 years? Probably not, but I'd
like to. I know that there's some people in Australia working on making a
new one but they are a couple of years away. However, I have both Legacy
and RootsMagic on my computer and I periodically play around with them too.
The day TMG quits working I'll need to have a plan ready to go. And yes, I
have a preference of one over the other. It's my preference though. People
just need to pick the genealogy program that suits them best. That is the
best genealogy program for them.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

Elaine:
Welcome to the Club !
I dropped FTM "Ancestry" when Ancestry started making complicated changes to 
it.   One example: recording of sources !
I bought and have the full Roots Magic version 7  and Legacy 8.0 version's and 
found them both far more complex and difficult to load.  I found these are both 
good and worth while products and have helpful staffing but having FTM I find 
they are more complex than I need. 
So to make a long story short after a lot of blood. sweat, and tears, and my 
Geek Squad help,  I have reverted back to my FTM version 2006.   It still works 
fine,  full fills my every need, is simple, self intuitive, so I intend to keep 
it as long as it works. 
My distress was created when my 32 bit computer died and I had to buy a new 
one.  At that point in time all new computers were 64 bit.  My FTM would not 
run on 64 bit so I had to upgrade FTM to 64.  When Ancestry purchased FTM they 
developed a conversion program.  When my computer died they had developed their 
own new version FTM and no longer supported the original FTM they purchased or 
the conversion program.  Fortunately, my local Geek Squad were able to find a 
way they had made the conversion in the past and were able to upgrade my copy 
of FTM to 64 bit.  
I have been using it since about 1990 . 
In 2004 I used it to publish a158 page Genealogical History of my Sellars 
Family Titled  "NEWFOUNDLAND SELLARS  Facts and/or Hearsay" using Family Tree 
Maker V10.  This version of FTM not only  developed the individual reports and 
charts it created an all name index and identified every page the individual 
was noted on, it collated the reports and numbered the pages consecutively 
starting with the table of contents through the dedication, preface, 
acknowledgements, introduction and all the various reports and charts I elected 
to use.  What more do I need ?  Nothing.  It is a GREAT PROGRAM ! (?App.?)
Copies have been distributed to many public entities, including public 
libraries, historical societies, and town halls, which have been helpful to me 
in collection of data. It is now out of print. 
I would hope that some entity would take an interest in that original 
Broderbund program and maintaining the original self intuitive program concepts 
windows, etc., make and maintain the program to do things like making FTM run 
on a 64 bit program rather than earlier 32 bit  or 16 bit program  or earlier.
I have heard that some company may have purchased from Ancestry the rights to 
FTM ?   Which FTM ?
If any one on the list knows who the company is,  or what the current status is 
I would hope they could share that information with those of  us who are caught 
in this difficult position. 
Good luck in your search.

 FTM support is supposed
 to end the end of the year.  I have FTM 16.  Has anyone
 changed to a different program or the new company who is
 supposed to take over FTM users? Any other program to make
 an easy switch?  I am looking for an easy switch and how to
 do it and what I will and/or will not lose. Remember, I am

I started with PAF. When they stopped supporting it I used the Essential 
Version of Roots Magic. I have since bought the software and have *NEVER* 
had an issue. Roots Magic also has a FaceBook page with plenty of people 
ready and willing to assist you if you should any questions and they let 
you know about any updates.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

[Theresa Entin]

Hello, to all of the people who are using Family Tree Maker,  I have used it 
for many years and just recently learned of something in the program that 
usually fixes any of the glitches it has.  Also, on Facebook they have a Family 
Tree Maker page that gives advice and also updates to it.

This is the thing that you should do often with the FTM program.  Under the 
TOOLS pull down menu, there is a COMPACT FILE.  You should compact the file if 
the program crashes, or if you are having issues with uploading it to Ancestry. 
 Or just as a good thing to do.

When you compact the file, it will give you a % of space it compacted.  It 
should compact to 0.0%.  You may have to compact the file a couple of times.  
Even though I compact all the time now, I usually have to do it 2 times before 
I get it 0.0%.

If you use Facebook, it is a good page to join because the programers from 
MacKiev monitor it and answer very quickly if you have an issue.

Celeste and others,

I contacted MacKiev and filled in a form and it looks like I can upgrade
from FTM 16 to their new version for $29.95.  ​JR thanks for reminding me
to backup my files, maybe twice, before I do anything else.

Will let you know how it goes.

You can try Roots Magic 7. It's free for the Essential Version. It's not 
what you are used to, but it is easy to use and will import FTW files 
without errors. That's important and better than importing a Gedcom file. 
Legacy is also easy to use. Just be sure back up your files unto a flash 
drive or CD or both!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[Marilyn Thompson]

Another thought about a software program. Many of the current programs like
Ancestral Quest and Roots Magic have simplified version online that are
free to download. These free downloads do not have all the bells and
whistles the full programs have, but they should let you merge two GEDCOMS.

You should be able to go through and eliminate the duplicates.

Just an idea

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[Cheri Mello]

Family Tree Maker is no longer being made. Support will continue through
December 31st of this year, however.

I'd make a Gedcom of your tree from Ancestry and send it to mom. Mom should
also download a Gedcom of her tree. Then she should start a new file,
family, project (whatever it is called in FTM) and merge the 2 Gedcoms
together and then begin the clean up process (you guys probably did data
entry differently). After you have it the way you like it, upload it to
Ancestry in place of one of the trees and eliminate the other tree.

You mom can make a Gedcom of the merged tree and send it to you. If you
want to open it or view it though, you will need a genealogy software
program to do that. If you are mom's backup copy, then you are fine.

Gedcom directions (both uploading and downloading) are here:

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[Adair Borba]

Hi All,

I would appreciate some advice on a strong project of which I need help. 

My Mother and I have separate trees on Ancestry.  It is time to combine the 
trees, and I understand from Ancestry that this can be done by Family Tree 
Maker.  My Mother has it installed on her desktop, but I do not, and I do not 
have the software. 

This means the merge will have to take place on her computer, however the ideal 
objective is to have the merged tree on my computer.

I feel we should hire an expert to facilitate the merge, thereby eliminating 
the cost of maintaining the 2 trees.

Any suggestions would be appreciated,

Adair Borba

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM 16 Problem

['Bill Boyd' via Azores Genealogy]

E,
The compatibility mode should be used for installation.  The setup files (if on 
CD) will need to be copied to your hard drive before you can change the 
properties as instructed below.  You might also select to run as administrator 
(another checkbox) just to make sure things go smoothly (fewer prompts for 
permission).
Run the installation program in compatibility mode:1. Right-click the 
installation file's icon.2. Click Properties  Compatibility .3. Select the 
compatibility mode for Windows XP.4. Click OK .5. Run the installation program.
After it's installed, run the program in Windows XP compatibility mode by doing 
the same with the installed program (right-click on the shortcut for FTM).
Hopefully you've already solved this.

Elaine,I have a couple of old programs that I like to use for 3D drawing but

I just had to select the correct one. You need to open the properties on FTM 16

a worm or something in the computer and had to totally re-install
Windows 7 (bought Windows 7 because it supported FTM 16!!) and all my
programs.  I have had no problems reloading any of the other programs
I have except FTM 16.  When I try to install it, they tell me they no
longer support it and won't let me upload it and tell me I have to get
the new version.  Problem is, I don't want the new version.  I will
gladly pay them for the new version BUT i want FTM 16, the one I am
used to.  I have enough problems at this age to figure out what I am
doing half the time and don't want to learn a new program, don't know
if everything I have in FTM will upload to the new program and am not
a happy camper.

Anyone else have/had this problem and is there any solution in my
favor at all?  I do intend to contact FTM tomorrow and ask but am
hoping I can get some input from someone else who have/had this
problem.

Thank you.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM 16 Problem

['celeste perry' via Azores Genealogy]

Elaine, when I bought the computer I am now using in 2013, I asked if FTM 16 
would work with it.  I have Microsoft 2010 and my FTM 16 does work with it.  
However, when I had a similar problem when a worm invaded my computer, I could 
not get FTM 16 to run for me.  I had the computer guy from Staples come and he 
was able to get it installed.  Don't know how he did it and hope the worms go 
somewhere else!
I understand entirely how you feel about the new version of FTM.  It is just 
too complicated and I don't like the index on the page all the time.  I guess 
as we mature we don't want to give up what works for us.
Hope you find a solution to your FTM 16 viewing.Celeste Celeste Perry

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM 16 Problem

[Mr. G]

Elaine,
I have a couple of old programs that I like to use for 3D drawing but they were 
written for Win 98. When I installed it to my computer with Win7 there is an 
option called Compatibility mode which makes your computer act as if it’s 
running the older windows program that your FTM 16 is Compatible with. I just 
had to select the correct one. You need to open the properties on FTM 16 and 
select the Compatibility box, then check the box for run in compatibility, then 
on the drop down list select the version of windows it last ran for you.
This should get you going, hopefully I didn’t miss a step.
Mike

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM 16 Problem

[E Sharp]

Celeste and Mike,

Thank you for your replies.  I purchased this Windows 7 computer
because it has 32 and 64 bit and 32 supports FTM 16.  It was working
fine before the mishap.  Funny, when I use my old laptop with FTM 16
installed there is no such message and the program comes up (I have
not updated the info to my old computer since I purchased my new one a
year and a half ago and I will do thi stomorrow using my backup drive,
just in case I run into this problem again.

We have a couple of things we are going to explore and will try again
tomorrow and if all else fails, I will call FTM and Staples is just
down the street :-) but we would like to try and figure this out
ourselves.one forgetful senior leading another forgetful senior.

I like Cheri's answer about Bugs Bunny. Do a few others with some sort of
flag of the same name but different information, too. I would do it with
two bogus files myself, Bugs and Mickey Mouse.

 Somewhat over simplistic.  You can make a file/family/project with one

 have to delete one person if you don't do the import right.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker Merging

Thanks I will try that.

 Pam S,

 I'm not sure about FTM.

 I take the other file and import it as it's own file/family/project.
 After making sure the data entry is the same as mine, I save it again.
 Then I go to File Import and it asks if I want to merge that file with my
 own.

 Somewhat over simplistic.  You can make a file/family/project with one
 obvious person (Bugs Bunny) and try a merge with him.  That way, you only
 have to delete one person if you don't do the import right.

Hi Bill,

Yes, this is what annoys me about the Great Paywall of Ancestry.com. 
There was recent discussion here in the group about a public 
library-sponsored research that's going into Ancestry.com, and nobody 
flinched at the fact that all this content will be offered to them for 
resale to other members.

I'm not and will probably never will be their client. A word to all of you 
that are. Try using mundia.com. You may find that a lot of what you're 
paying for to access other's research is actually available for free.

Great find!  Yes, if the record has an image associated with it, then story

Still, it is something.

On Ancestry, you can keep your genealogy in the cloud, on their servers.
With Family Tree Maker, you will have your own genealogy software on your
computer (back it up yourself). It has a lot more bells and whistles than
Ancestry. It can also sync with Ancestry as well.

and then. They often screw up security on upgrades and provide free record 
access for a time.  Also, the iPhone (right now) allows individual record 
purchases for $1.99. Not cheap, butter better than paying for a month for 1 
or 2 records. 


* Some records are FREE no matter you subscription status. No, Ancestry does 
not make it obvious which records!  Anything from the 1940 census, find a 
grave, billion graves, and many others, are always free. You'll have to 
develop a list. If you select a premium record, just back up from the prompt 
to subscribe. 


Good luck!

Bill

I should point out that you can view saved records now.  I dont know if its 
intentional, but you can now view and save records in story view.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker 2014

Pam,

I have upgraded. The big difference is a tree view like the online ancestry.com 
site. I was hoping the improved tree sync would now also get more detailed 
media information. Unfortunately, it does not. Document transcripts, for 
example, do not come down to FTM. 

Quite honestly, I'm not convinced it is worthwhile. Perhaps I'll find 
something, but after a week I'm not sure. Is there something you really want in 
the new version?

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[want2beunique]

Not specific to the Azores, but a handy tip I recently came across for 
those using Family Tree Maker and synchronizing with Ancestry.com.  I 
mainly use it to have a copy of my ancestry.com tree, sources and media on 
a local system where I control the data.  Yes, I'm afraid of clouds ;-)

To ensure all of your media is downloaded to Family Tree Maker, go to the 
Media section by selecting it in the ribbon bar.  Then hit CTRL F5  
(the  and  indicate that these are two keys and not ctrlf5 typed as 
individual letters/numbers).  You will be prompted to download all media 
from your ancestry.com synchronized tree or only search for anything that 
is missing.  I would do it all first and then the delta option later.  It 
pulled down a lot of media for me!

I use FTM 2011 and I can't figure out how to change it so it WILL print just

female not both.  Does anyone know how to change this?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[Nancy Couto]

Pam and Rick,

I use FTM 2011, although I don't print trees very often.  However, I think
the box and line styles settings under Pedigree Chart Options might be
the place to specify borders and colors for boxes for females and males.
This would be on your screen to the right of the actual chart, and it
allows you to customize the appearance of the boxes.  After you enter your
preferences for females, go down and do the same for males.  You can have
females with red borders and males with blue borders, etc.  This just
controls the appearance; all ancestors, male and female, will appear in the
tree.  I don't know how to make it print just male or female.

Hope this helps a little.

Nancy

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker

[Nancy Couto]

Pam, I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do, but you can customize
the boxes for all females by clicking the word females (under boxes in
the Box, Border and Line Options window) and then selecting a border color
and then a fill and shadow color, if desired.  The default for all three of
these is None.  Then go down a line, click on males, and make
additional selections.  There are other options, as well.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker and Big Charts

[Pam Santos]

Well I thought I would share in case there is others out there who are not
able to make an ancestry chart that is big in Family Tree Maker. I had
downloaded a free trial of Adobe PDF creator. I downloaded it mainly to
convert JPG to PDF. Well I was playing around in family tree maker and
instead of clicking on SHARE I clicked on PRINT and changed the printer
that I would normally print with to Adobe PDF and it created the whole 750
pages!!!  I do not know how much it cost to buy but I am sure there is a
free version similar.

[Bill Boyd]

Yes, try cute PDF writer (www.cutepdf.com). I've used it for years and have 
made documents many hundreds of pages. The writer version is free. 

There is not an inherent PDF limitation on size. I've gone over 2,000 pages 
(although size of the file and memory do become an issue!)

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker transferring data question

[bellemarco]

I finally found the time to transfer my updated Family Tree Maker family  
file to my mini from my laptop which I had not updated since we set up the  
computer in 1911. In transferring the info, the file on the mini said it  
could not open and copy because there was a file open. I do not know what  
they are talking about as there is no file open as far as I am concerned so  
that is my first problem. In the meantime, it let me open and copy and  
called the new file by same name No. 2 So now I have 2 FTW family files the  
old one without the updated info and the new one with all the new info I  
had input into my laptop and they are both now on my mini. I know this  
occupies a lot of space to have 2 and am considering the deleting first one  
and keeping the 2nd but am a little hesitant to do so. I cannot figure out  
what they mean that there is a file open on the first one when we tried  
to open and replace (1) instead of open and copy (2). Hope you understand  
all of this.


Second, I did my grandson in law's genealogy before he married my  
granddaughter in a FTW separate file. Now I would like to merge the two  
files. I made sure his name and my granddaughter's name are exactly the  
same in both files. How do I go about merging these two FTW files?


Thank you.

Good luck, I still haven't figure out how to split a file in Family

Elaine, if you are worried about losing any of the information from the file 
you delete, can you put the file on a CD?  I am not sure about this; however, 
you might ask Joao Ventura, he uses FTM.  Celeste

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker 2012 (genealogy software program)

[Richard Francis Pimentel]

Hi Maria,

 

I don't think this is a free upgrade. Family Tree Maker keeps milking this
money cow by adding these newer versions which to me are no real
improvements over the previous versions. I am sure they will send you an
email and offer the newer version at a reduced amount and tell you all about
it. The version I liked the best was the FTM 16. Since then all their
changes seemed to be pointed toward their on line site, services and sharing
which I do not care about.

Do u know if they update if you already have FTM?  I have it but I also have
and use Legacy.  However, I have wished my sons would also purchase Legacy
so they can see what I have entered and other fam members as well.  

 

It looks like my personal info on  FTM can be seen by others whom I
designate.  I'm wondering if I should attempt exporting into it if they do
free update.  I'll check on Internet.  Good info- thanks.

Maria,

I have to be careful with these tech words.
Update:  Brings it up to date.  Such as version 1.1 is now 1.2 (many times
these are free).
Upgrade:  New version.  1.x is now 2.0 (usually you pay for them).

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker Upgrade Question

[Cheri Mello]

Hi Elaine,

Kathy Cardoza wrote up a detailed review of Family Tree Maker on a Mac.
http://goo.gl/YMKAP

I think the Mac and the Windows versions are pretty darn similar.  Maybe a
couple of things are filed differently under the menus.

   Family Tree Maker 2011 A second opinion

 FIRST IMPRESSION

 Having read Kathy Cardozas positive review of  Subject:
 [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker for Mac --- my first impressions-
 Friday, November 12, 2010, 1:13 PM and having been using 13 different Family
 Tree Maker version 1 to 2005 since 1992 with currently 18,946 individual
 records I decided to break down and up date my 2005 version to the current
 version for windows.

 A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT !

 Don't be mislead by the title Family Tree Maker !

 This new version is no longer the Family Tree Maker I know.   It is a
 completely different software package.  I recognized none of the familiar
 windows of my previous versions.

 The old standard Family View is gone. In its place appears to be  a
 totally different view containing some 6 (or more, depending on what you
 count as a window) different windows crunched on to one screen.  Visualize,
 an index window on the left side, a primary individual window on the right
 side, an ancestor chart window at the center top, a children's list at the
 center bottom, with two or three windows between the center top and bottom
 who's function I have not yet figured out.  One says Henry  Joan (who I
 don't recognize), another says Add Parents yet it shows the birth and
 death of the primary individual shown in the right side window ? and a
 window titled Marriage which appears to be a repeat that is in the primary
 individual window!

 The application that I received I do not consider an upgrade, or version
 of the Family Tree Maker.   It is a completely new and different program
 that neither looks even similar or works like or similar to the former
 Family Tree Maker.  It may well be a better program but it is misleading to
 say the least,  to label it as what was once known  formally as the
  #1-selling family history software .  It will take this individual a long
 and steep learning curve to be able to use, let alone be comfortable with,
 this totally new rewritten and different program.
 For Christmas I received a 130 page history of the  French Family
 1555-1995 by Eleanor M. Crouch.  After two days of attempting to record new
 information in the new software application I have reverted back to my old
 2005 version of Family Tree Maker

 So if you are considering buying or upgrading to Family Tree Maker by
 Ancestry.com be aware it is very very different from the Family Tree Maker
 programs published from about 1992 through 2005

 I have used many genealogy programs over the years, both for Macs and for

 and easy to work with. I am always intrigued by trying out new programs,

 the Mac and have been working with it this last week. This is not a complete

 First of all, there are two versions of this program . One, for $69 is

 sells for $99 but includes a Toolkit of 6 PDF books that may or may not be

additional $30, in my opinion!


I first prepared a gedcom in Reunion of my 9,000+ individuals and  
imported it into FTM. That process went very smoothly and quick. As  
most everyone knows (or should know) gedcom is NOT a perfect  
process, nor do you get perfect results. This was no exception.  
(Also, because I store my genealogy files in Dropbox and share them  
with both my computers, I changed the default place FTM wanted to  
put my file, to my Dropbox.)


The program feels pretty Mac-like, in general. One thing I noticed  
right off, though, was that, after the import, I clicked the button  
to View the Log. and it opened up Parallels on my Mac to go  
into the Windows XP System that I run on my Mac! OopsNot very  
Mac friendly there and bad first impression.  :)


Gedcom import:  Generally, most things were handled very well in  
the import. Notable exceptions were that many of my Misc. Event  
tags in Reunion (gedcom tag was EVEN) did not survive the import.  
Those included events such as Illness, Accident, Surgery, Register  
to Vote, and Fraternal Society Joined events that I added  
myself into Reunion and had given the EVEN gedcom tag. When I  
realized this, I had to mark those individuals in Reunion and add  
those Facts (as FTM calls them) into FTM one by one. I am still in  
the process of doing this but am getting close to being finished  
with it.


Notes:  I use quite a few Notes in Reunion and have added my own  
with the gedcom tag of NOTE; Census (where I record the entire  
household for each census), Probate, and Military as well as the  
default one for each individual of Misc. Notes.  It seems that only  
one Note was imported for each person so if they had a Military  
note, for example, you will have to manually add that into FTM as  
part of your Military Fact for that person.


Facts:  FTM calls everything a Fact. There is a very large Note  
field attached to each Fact. I do not know if there is a character  
limit to this field as there is in Reunion (which is rather small).  
It is a very large field for adding data so there is plenty of room  
to add in your Note data from Reunion. When you publish a report  
such as an Individual Person Report, these Fact Notes don't appear  
immediately below the Fact data (date and place) but instead are  
gathered at the end of the report. I didn't like that at first,  
preferring to have ALL the pertinent data including the Memo/Note,  
all together with the event data. But, after working with this for  
a while, I see the merits of having that Note data appear at the  
end of the report (before Sources, if you choose to include them).  
You have an uncluttered view of all the Facts (Events) in a  
person's life, shown as a concise list at the beginning of the  
report. It makes it easy to view those events but if you want more  
info on each one, you can refer to the end of the report where that  
data appears.


Sources:  FTM has a set of templates included for adding specific  
source types. I haven't done a lot of these so far so I can't  
really give you much feedback on it as of yet. At first glance,  
though, it seems to be somewhat limited for templates. The Source  
View, though, is very complete. You can click on one of your  
sources on the left side and immediately see all the source  
citation detail as well as the links (the people or event it is  
being used on) and the media attached to it. Very nice! You can

Family Tree Maker is the product of Ancestry and is one of the most popular
genealogy programs. I have used it for years and for the most part have used
or tried to use all the versions from Family Tree Maker 4 to Family Tree
maker 10 and all the year number versions except 2010. The version I liked
the most was Family Tree Maker 2006 V16. The current version Family Tree
Maker 2011 just came out and so far I like it except for a problem closing
the program. I have contacted Ancestry about it and I am sure they will fix
it.

 

I have really been impressed with the Maps in 2011. Not only can you get
street maps of the Azores but can get a satellite view of the same. It is
nice to find the street that was recorded on records.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker 2011

[rfrancispimentel]

Hi All,

 

I received the new FTM 2011 this past Friday and have been playing
around with it. I have been using FTM 2006 V16 for the longest time even
though I did get FTM 2008  2009 which I did not like as well as 2006.
One thing I have noticed is the maps in 2011 of the Acores are great it
has the street where my grandfather was born. I have been tweaking my
database and finding errors (from my data entry) and correcting them. I
think I might just like this version.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker for MAC

[E Sharp]

I just found this on the Family Tree Maker site:

http://www.familytreemaker.com/Mac/Default.aspx

You asked for it and we listened. Announcing Family Tree Maker® Mac.
If you’re on a Mac, you’ll soon be able to take advantage of the
world’s best-selling genealogy application to create your family
tree.

Since we have a new Mac, and I use FTM on my Toshiba laptop, may be
useful in the future to have on both laptop computers.  Can never have
it on too many computers, backups, etc. :-)
