I'm not to checked out on the Mac software but with regards to the
different forums:

if it has anything whatsoever to do with genealogy research use the
Research Forum

I think you picked the perfect forum for this message

I would use the announce list if you want to announce something.

in time I think with more messages it will become clear.

sometimes progress involves a bit of discomfort. . .but we'll get there.

My sister and I only use Macs. My family has just about every Mac on the market.

We gave up on Reunion. I'm currently using MacFamily, a new software program developed in Germany. It has a few bugs, but it is cheap and being upgraded constantly.

MacFamily is the best option in my opinion. You can order it online. Try a google search for MacFamily. You can dowload a free sample then pay for a password for full access.
