Hi, Not too sure how you expect it to work but for me the method is: Select the person you want to find the relationship to as the Focal person. Select the Relationship Calculator from the People menu. You then find the person you want to calculate the relationship to the Focal Person from the list ...

There is also info in that post on how to get around the duplicate file error on startup. Meanwhile Warwick is working on a new release which should be available soon. Hope that helps...

Hi Robyn
Just double click on an ancestor to make him or her the Focal person and then you can add parents, spouses or children.

Re: Which Name to Use
Hi Phil, Sorry not to reply sooner but I hoped someone with direct experience of this would chip in. In my view of genealogy you should use your birth name linked to your birth mother (and father if possible) as that is your line of descent. You can then enter your adopted parents with the appropria...

Re: Update for El Capitan
Hi Melissa, You need to update to iFamilyForMac version 2.9.3 when using El Capitan It is available in the members forum section. You may need to find the file you want to open as I think there is an issue with keeping the recent list. I'm sure Warwick will add any migration issues. Regards Nigel

Hi Chandra, Have you entered the date of birth for the children? This is the only way I know to list them in the correct order. I believe it is alphabetical if no dates provided. If you are not too sure of the birthdays you can enter 'abt 1980' for example to get the right sorting. I would advise ag...

Hi,
If you mean for generating a report then you can select the app to open the report in via the 'Open report in:' drop down menu.
I believe this requires that you have the app installed

Re: Sources Invisible in Yosemite
Hi,
I reported (in the Members forum under the Yosemite thread) an issue where the source entries are not visible in the source list or the source page for an event.
Can you see something of the entry at those locations?

Re: Different colour font?
Hi, Hope it proves OK. iFamily will take approximate dates using the abt, bef, aft (and others) type modifiers (abt = About, bef = Before, aft = After) though it does not allow a range. I find that quite acceptable when you don't know the actual date but can guess some limit. Having an approximate d...

Re: Two Identities - unable to create ged and other reports
Hi Anne,
Have you tried the menu option 'File ... Move Data File'?
Not sure if this would solve the problem but it might reset the various references to the old user name to the new path.
Not tried it but it is the right way to move a data file so it might help.

Nigel
