FAQ Added, Note-Taking Software Updated
August 21, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
Over the past few days, I’ve done a large update/revision of the Mac note-taking and journal software page. There was very little there before and now there is hopefully an up-to-date guide of sorts that can point you in the right direction if you are looking for information on applications to help organize and manage genealogy research. I’ll be expanding it and doing full reviews of some of the software mentioned.
More importantly, I’ve added a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) to the site, which you may have seen in the navigation menu above (“FAQ”):
It’s going to cover a lot of the questions I receive in email and hopefully clear the air on some things. We don’t directly sell or develop genealogy software is one example of a question I get asked about a lot. The overall focus of the FAQ section is going to be on helping people who have migrated from Windows or older Macs and the genealogists migrating from Windows or older Macs section will be expanded greatly in the next few days.
There will also be FAQs for specific Mac genealogy applications and questions. Here are two examples:
* FAQ – Family Tree Maker for Mac
* FAQ – Personal Ancestral File (PAF)
I’ve got a lot left to do on it, but you can see the start of what it will be from the above links.
If there is anything you think that needs to be added or expanded, please contact us.
Mac Notepad 4.4
June 20, 2007 by admin · Leave a Comment
Mac Notepad 4.4 is available. Mac Notepad is a Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.2 required) application that allows you to manage and edit text data, similar to journaling software. It also allows you to export and import from iPod Notes, another application from Apimac that stores text information on your iPod. You can password-protect your information if you feel the need to.
This release adds the “new Valentina database 3 engine” as well as includes minor interface tweaks.
