New Family Tree Maker Options
By: Kendall Hulet
Today, I am pleased to announce two options for desktop software that will work with Ancestry.
Software MacKiev
Software
MacKiev, with whom we have a long-standing relationship, is acquiring
the Family Tree Maker software line as publisher for both Mac and
Windows versions. Software MacKiev has been the developer of Family Tree
Maker for Mac for more than six years and is thrilled at the
opportunity to publish future versions of Family Tree Maker for Mac and
Windows.
This
new agreement means you will receive software updates and new versions
from Software MacKiev, and have the ability to purchase new versions of
Family Tree Maker from Software MacKiev as they are released.
You will have continued access to Ancestry Hints, Ancestry searches,
and be able to save your tree on Ancestry with Family Tree Maker moving
forward.
We
have made an agreement with RootsMagic, a leading genealogy desktop
software program publisher, to connect Ancestry with the RootsMagic
software by the end of 2016. With
this new relationship, RootsMagic can serve as your desktop family tree
software, while having access to Ancestry hints, Ancestry searches, and
the ability to save your tree on Ancestry.
We
have heard your concerns and are working to provide the solutions you
requested. These new agreements will make it possible to preserve your
work on Ancestry and Family Tree Maker and enable future features and
benefits to help you discover your family history. Be
assured that Ancestry, in cooperation with Software MacKiev and
RootsMagic, will continue to support you as you discover your family
history.
We ask for your patience as we work diligently through all the details to make these solutions available. Be sure to check back on our blog as we share more information about Family Tree Maker in the next few months.
