My daughter and I have been working on the free version on Ancestry.com for a couple months now. When the opportunity arose to try Family Tree Maker for Mac and have a free 3-month subscription as stated we were tickled pink. We had tons of printed data we have been entering into Ancestry.com that she has been receiving from family members.

After the program installed we actually had a bit of a problem locating it. Finally we found it by going to the Macintosh HD icon on the desktop. We followed the directions to sign up for our 3-month free subscription but that did not exist. I had to enter a credit card number and got a 6-moth free trial and after the 6 months if I do not cancel it with in the trial subscription I will be charged $99 for another 6 months of service. So I guess I got a better deal but I made sure to give myself a reminder in case I don’t want it to renew itself after the 6-moth trial is over.

All I can say about the program it it is worthless. It constantly signed us out and I don’t understand why. We enjoyed using the services on Ancestry.com more after signing up for the free trial subscription through the program. My daughter and I spent hours going viewing documents, pictures and hints of possible family members then trying to figure out why the program would not import our information.

However, we did order our DNA kits for the special price offered after signing up for the trial subscription - so that was a bonus!
