Dear Kurt,
I have just downloaded and installed Family Tree Maker 2005 (free 14 days trial) If you would like to email me some of your FTW / FBK files to my "EMAIL LINK" on this forum, I will try to convert them to GEDCOM for you. I need to try conversion in the next 14 days, before the program stops working.

Can someone please help me convert my FTM file (.FTW) to GEDCOM? I recently converted my laptop to Linux and still have all my files on my terabit backups, but cannot open them.I downloaded GRAMPS, but it needs the file in gedcom format. Thanks.

Hello,
I am running Ubuntu 16.04 Linux, and have just installed the Windows program "Family Tree Maker 2005 Starter Edition" under "Wine"
The "Starter Edition" will run for 14 days, and then drops back to the basic version.
I do not know what version of FTM your file was created with, so not sure if "Family Tree Maker 2005 Starter Edition" will open it. If it does open it, you should be able to save the tree as a Gedcom file.
If you have your original "Family Tree Maker" installation files, it may be possible for you to install it in Linux under "Wine", and use the full licensed features of that version.
If you do not want to try installing FTM (any version) under "Wine", you could email me your FTW file to me (via my email link in the forum), and I will try to convert it for you.
If you do email to me, please post a short reply on this forum, saying that you have emailed me, so that I can look out for your email. (as the forum email does not always arrive) Please remember that I only have 14 days before the starter edition expires for me.
For your information, it is probably est not to post your FTW file directly to the forum for tree privacy reasons.
I normally use GenoPro (a Windows program) on Ubuntu under "Wine" for my Genealogy program, although I can dual-boot back to Windows 10 and run it there if I need to.
All the best, Martyn,

I have only got 3 days remaining out of the 14 day free trial, if you would like me to try to convert the FTW file to GEDCOM.

Hi, A family member recently sent me an .ftw file. I downloaded GEDitCOM, but it doesn't appear to be able to import .ftw files. To complicate matters further, I am a mac user. I would be willing to pay for .ftw software, but I can't even seem to find a way to download it online. Does anyone have suggestions?

Ancestry have abandoned Family Tree Maker but mackiev.com, who have been developing it for years, provide a Mac version for c.$80. It is possible to convert to gedcom if you do not want to get involved in another program
