Hi,
Has anyone here used Family Tree Maker version 16 with Vista? I would like
to buy it but don't know if it will be able to be used with Vista.
Thanks,
Nancy

Re: Family Tree Maker 16 with Vista
Hi Hugh,
Thank you. I have version 9. Should I just upgrade or uninstall my old
version and install a full new one? Or just leave 9 on here and install 16?
Thanks,
Nancy

version 16 is much better in many ways but you will get culture shock
until you learn to use it
best do not update to Vista on an existing computer for at least a year
if at all but stay with WinXp sp2

2005 works fine with Vista and I am sure 2006 and 16 will too when I can
find the damn 2005 to 2006 upgrade disk!

Re: Family Tree Maker 16 with Vista
Problem is I have no choice. I have Vista now and am not at liberty to take
it back even if I wanted to. My old computer was Windows 98 so I doubt it
would've worked on there either.
Guess I will hold my breath. <lol>

Re: Family Tree Maker 16 with Vista
Thanks. I ordered it today. Will take 10 to 14 days. Then they told me to
call them for support while I install it. But I'll try the patch first.
Thanks,
