Would you be willing to convert yet another FTW file to GEDCOM format please? I'd love to be able to recover some of the work she did on this file.

Use my profile email to send your file, and I will convert it for you :-)

I have the same problem as others who have posted to this thread. I will mail the offending .FTM file to you, in hopes that you will be able to convert it to GED or PAF and return it to me. This is apparently a necessary and useful service you are providing. Is there a trick to it that others could use, or is it dependent on special tools you have unique access to?



Hellllllp!

A Starter Edition of Family Tree Maker 2005 is available at http://www.familytreemaker.com/download/starter.aspx. This installs as a full version for 14 days and then reverts to the Starter Edition which has no time limit. The full version will export to GEDCOM, but whether this is available after the trial period, I don't yet know (I can update the situation at the end of the 14 day trial).

My 14 day trial has now completed, and, unfortunately, when the trial reverts to the Starter Edition, the export to GEDCOM function is no longer available.

Another way of converting FTW files has become possible with the announcement that Family Tree Legends v.5 from http://www.familytreelegends.com/ is now available as a free download. Follow the link on the site and 'Buy' the software. This leads you to a a page where you are given a registration key which will activate the program.

You can import the FTW file format directly.The program claims it can import a wide variety of other formats, including GenoPro, but in fact this has to be done after you export to Gedcom.

However it does have native FTW support and I have imported a file and then created a gedcom file from it.

One word of warning. When I started to use the program, the first thing that I did was to try to import the FTW file and the PC seemed to hang when I browsed to the file. This was possibly a conflict with my virus detector as it seemed to be checking a lot of files. On my second attempt I created a blank file and loaded some dummy data. This initially created a database and after that I had no problem importing the FTW file

Hello,

I just joined this website in hopes of finding help.

Our family tree has an AQ file extension......I cannot open it....Sad

Does anyone have any ideas as to what this is?  I saw a website for ancestry quest...is that what it is?

do I have to buy this software to be able to view this data? Any advise would be helpful...thank you!

Robin
