Like - do the carefully entered source references really follow where referenced? The duplication of sources and source references are a discrete step in an iFamily Merge and will migrate to the target database in total. By combinations of using the Index button to switch between personalities and ...

It should be, It's on the list, thanks.

Copy your ~/iFamilyData/ folder onto a USB thumb drive or an external drive to transport it to the second Mac. You will also need to install iFamily on the second Mac in order to view and edit the data. You can locate the ~/iFamilyData/ folder in your user home directory, your databases will be the ...

b. and d. years for a different maternal aunt do not show up at all on Ancestry site. My first query is is this information correct in your Gedcom file. I am happy to have a look at it for you if you would like to email it to me and tell me which name I am looking for. Please send it to support@ifa...

Your timing for a release has nothing to do with something else being released tomorrow, such as iPad2, does it? No, I'm sure Apple planned the iPad2 release for Keith's birthday too. As shown today, I am now confident of releasing new versions of our Desktop product. Some work however still needs ...

iFamily V2.521 Prerelease We have been testing a new (stable) version of iFamily with some customer assistance but now require a wider test distribution. Although we had made a number of changes and new features to our current series of releases, I required to strip them back to a clean copy with c...

Hi Killara, can you place this in the Marriage Notes? It is on the left hand side of the marriage event on the Family Dialog.

Revisiting the work I have done so far it looks like the only examples I have come up with so far for label text's that are altered from the code are the Partner/Spouse/Husband-Wife labels on the main family tab. All other examples I have come across so far are related to Buttons on the dialogs whic...

Hi Germans, Thank you for the interface elements bauschaffender, I appreciate the work that has gone into this. I can not yet recommend using the above translated nib files. There are numerous instances of the codebase identifying which button has been pressed by checking the button text. Although I...

The first thing that occurs when the " Load GEDCOM file " window opens is that a Finder style Open File sheet will unfold from the title bar. All files which do not have a *.GED extension will be greyed out. Please let me know if this is not the case. The Open button will only be active once a GED f...

First you must host an image online somewhere. Picasa, Flicker, MobileMe or Dropbox are capable. Enter the http URL address of the image, then highlight the text and, then press the [Img] button on the Bold/Italic/Underline/Quote/...

Warwick.

When I moved my tree from my old MAC to my new MAC, the view switched from ancestors to descendants view. I'm talking about the page one makes changes on. I want to see the youngest people on the right. Can I change this? Hi Cazzy, There is a "Children on Left" option in the iFamily Preferences pan...

Hi Petter, I have sent you a download link via email. If you still have access to your old hard disk, you will want to manually copy across the ~/iFamilyData/ folder, (and it's subdirectories). It will contain all your databases, pictures and reports and you can find it, (by default), in your user h...

Hi, Thanks for your comments. Nice timing, the coding for adding the associated tags was completed last week and they work well. There is some extra capacity in the iFamily datamodel beyond the gedcom specification and I am still considering how to treat this. With regards to the between dates, I kn...

Hi Bill, Thanks for letting me know, are FTM4Mac support (real people) able to tell you any information about why the Gedcom is not importing correctly? To help diagnose the problem, it may be worth trying a Gedcom export with the "Custom tags" turned off and see if that is any help. (If you have no...

Hi William, Renumbering the personal ID's of entities is not possible with iFamily. Does anyone know of another product that could do this? There's always the manual option but that may be fraught with danger. Depending what you want to renumber for, there are 2 options I can see that may be u...

I have been experimenting with this.

My day job is as a cartographer, of sorts, I will have some progress soon.

Ok, I don't quite understand what you wrote, (however translate.google.com is awesome). With the help of a customer we have translated the interfaces and dialogues to German. (Using iLocalize). Currently said customer is waiting for me to supply a list of 600 or so strings that were hard-coded. (...

Has this problem been resolved? Ah, yes and no. The problem is occuring by a logical error in the code. The loss of data you are seeing in your Gedcom is being caused by a Depersonalization procedure. As shown below, when the red boxed option is chosen, the program will Depersonalize even when the ...

Although I have burnt my information on to a CD, it cannot be read by a PC. How do I make this possible - I have Snow Leopard now but my initial ifamily data was recorded on the OS Tiger - would that affect anything. Hope you can help. Many thanks Hi Billericay, I have sent you an email to clarify ...

Still in the works, yes.

The desktop upgrade takes priority over iPad development. Once that is done i will reassess the portable potential. (I would like to do it now, but...).

There are currently no plans for an iPad version. This may change depending on what capabilities become apparent at launch, but no work will be done pre-launch.
