On-going problem that is stopping progress
Found iFamily in 2011 and leaped at the chance to use such a great program for Mac genealogists. I brought my .ged file over from previous program, had great support from Warwick all the way through, and started adding to the already huge file. A couple of years back I upgraded my computer, loaded all files over, for some reason I created a new computer identity at this stage and, because you can, I kept growing my .ged file. Perhaps a year ago I had a request from family for some genealogy information, tried to create a Descendants Report and got a message: "Unable to create the file for the report output: /Users/anne......./iFamilyData/Reports/xxxxxxxxxxxxx_Descendants.rtf"The new user name is 'anne..........1' and this would appear to be the problem.
I can create Family Groups, various charts but, worst of all, I can't create a .ged file of any description!!
Warwick discovered that iFamily is using my original User set-up, storing everything there, however, when I go through to that original User all that appears when I open iFamily are those families that came with the original program, Royals, etc. Bit of a quandary here. I've added hundreds of people in the past year or two since upgrading my computer, I think I have the file stored at perhaps that old changeover level ... I don't want to go back and enter them all again!
Any thoughts
Thanks
Anne
