Opening page
Hi Keith, 1. I use Events much of the time, family very seldom. Therefore I think it could be practical if each person could choose his own default pane. Petter Hi Petter Default Pane when Starting iFamily V2.466 - iFamily now remembers which pane was open in the lower half of the main window. The ...

Opening page
If you have a Birth date of 01 May 1800 and you know that the person was Christened then you can enter a date like " After 01 May 1800" for the christening date and it will appear in chronological sequence after the Birth date. Similarly, " Before" dates appear before other events on...

Some events didn't load from Reunion GEDCOM
Hi Karen, Other than the small number of non-conforming records that I mentioned in my previous 2 posts iFamily has correctly loaded what was in the Gedcom file. Maybe there was some data that was not written to the Gedcom file. I will send you an email asking for additional information. Here is a l...

Thank you,

I have many instances where not all of my " notes" have loaded into my iFamily. Some did, but the majority did not. Is there a reason why this is happening?

Hi Karen I have inspected the Reunion9 Gedcom file that you sent me and iFamily has imported all of the information that was in the Gedcom file except for a few very minor omissions related to a few records that are not correctly tagged.

Gender of children unknown
Hi MyriamMyriam D wrote:Is there a method to enter children as gender unknown? I tried filling in a U for unknown, but this does not work.
In iFamily you must enter a gender for every person and it must be M or F. I suggest that you select one or the other and add a Note that you have guessed it.

Hi Karen It depends on which version of Reunion you are using. Some versions of Reunion generate Gedcom records that do not conform to the Gedcom 5.5 Standard. iFamily handles most of Reunion's non-conforming records but there may be some, from the version of Reunion that you are using, that we have...

I am using v.2443 on a Tiger OS. I realize this might be difficult, but I'd like to be able to get an On This Day report for a non-Gregorian calendar.
