The report mentions that RootsMagic can import FamilyTree Maker files. I have the free version, V.7, which does contain an import option for files from 'Family Tree Maker (2006 and earlier)' so this may provide a valid Gedcom. Not having any such files I can not test it. In fact I have found some ftw files and imported them to RootsMagic, created a gedcom which opens in GenoPro. According to the site RootsMagic runs on a Mac

Hello all,
Im here for similar reasons as others. My father created a family tree in family tree maker but passed away in 2010 soI don't have access to family tree maker software...and am on a mac so cant download the free trial. I luckily found the FTW file in an old email but haven't been able to open it. I am on Ancestry and have a paid subscription but was not able to upload the FTW file. I also tried Roots Magic but it gave an error when trying to open the file there. Im really hoping there is not an issue with the file as it is the only copy. Anybody able to help with converting the file to Gedcom or have any suggestions? I tried to attached the file here but cant even do that as says the file type is unsupported  |

I have just installed a 14 day trial of FTW2005, so could try if it will convert the file to a GEDCOM file if you could attach or send it.
I think that GenoPro will only accept a few file types as attachments. (not including FTW or FBK)
I suggest that you first make a copy of the FTW file (to prevent possible corruption of the original file), and then try either compressing the copy to a zip file, or just re-naming the copy to have a txt extension, and see if you can either attach to a GenoPro post, or send it as an email attachment to my GenopPro email link.
I will try to help you if I can, Martyn

I only have 3 days left on my free trial of FTW2005; If you can be quick in attaching your FTW file to your forum post, I will try and convert it to Gedcom for you before my free trial expires.
