Hi Stephen,
I must get back to my genealogy soon - it’s been far too long!! Out of interest, what is your reason for wanting to move from Reunion to MacFamilyTree. Having been a Reunion user since (I think) Reunion 3 (when you got a disk and a manual in the post!) I have always been very happy with it - but I know nothing about MacFamilyTree - so I’m interested to know why you prefer it?

I just downloaded and ran Go64. Got rid of a few more old 32 bit apps. Problem is I already installed macOS Catalina. So I am now stuck with Reunion 10 which will not run. I may be forced to upgrade Reunion 10 but I was hoping to move to MacFamilyTree. However the people at MacFamilyTree have offered to convert my Reunion date files to GEDCOM files.

Hi mate, With Catalina Apple have finally dropped all support for 32 bit applications. So before installing Catalina check which of your apps do not operate on 64 bit. Go to “About this Mac” at top left of Desktop. Click on “System Report” Click on “Applications” and wait for the screen to load. Each application will tell you if it is 64 bit or 32 bit (and some will be 32/64 bit) I thought there was a column on that screen indicating this. But I cannot see it so you may have to click on each line (application) to find out. Other than that everything is running fine for me so far. Regards, Stephen Chape Good advice, but Even Better Than That…. Search for “Go64” in your favourite search engine. You’ll be taken to the (FREE!) Go64 App by St Clair Software, makers of Default Folder. Go64 is System Report on steroids: many 64-bit apps still have some 32-bit components which may or may not affect their performance. Go64 will help you identify these very esaily and let you make a decision about them. Go64 also has many other functions, such as giving you the chance to delete problematic Apps from with its own interface - a huge time saver. It has many other convenient functions as well. We showed this off at the WAMUG meeting last week. Highly recommended.
