Which software.... any advice?
« on: Thursday 19 February 15 15:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi there

My FTM V2 for Mac went wrong with the latest software update so had to back track to Mavericks.  Any suggestions for the V3 or is Family Historian better on pc?  I do use bootcamp... bit limited with space too.  I may need to merge a previous version of TMG (The Master Genealogist) too!

Can anyone advise a good software?

Many thanks in advance :)

Family Historian incorporates a TMG Import.

Great thanks for your help guys.  I have decided to go for Family Historian through Parallels which will help with the file and pics sharing/storage too :)
