Re: Issues with upgrading to V7 from V6 on Mac with Crossover

I have now found how to get it to update in a bottle rather than create a new one every time. I have got as close as I will get. I have lost my custom scheme from the diagram view. I have however given up trying to get anything else, and now that I have upgraded, I don't have the ability to go back ...

Re: Issues with upgrading to V7 from V6 on Mac with Crossover

When in the bottle that I wish the software to install in, I choose the installer file and as part of the installer steps it creates a new bottle every time. I am not doing anything for it it to create the new bottle. I created an empty one called Windows 10, went to install FH into it and it create...

Hi, I am getting stuck at the installing V6 in the W10 bottle part - its not accepting my product key for V6. My original full purchase was V4, with upgrade keys for 5 and 6., would this have anything to do with it? If I click cancel when it doesn't accept my product key, it gives me the out of the ...

Afternoon, I have recently purchased the upgrade from V6 to V7 and the list of problems that I am experiencing is growing. (Unfortunately every time I upgrade I have problems). 1.

I know this used to be possible as all my previous research / census entries have the image attached to the fact, not the source. How do I go about changing the se...

Thank you for the clarification. I am using Crossover, that's correct. Something that I will have to put up with I guess.

Display living age on tree view.

Looking for a little advice / reminder.
If I have a living flag ticked, how can I get my tree view to display someones current age? I know its possible, have had it in the past, but with computer issues / re-installs etc I have lost a lot of customisation and trying to put them back. Thanks

Re: Getting rid of Parallels. What do you use?

Karen IIRC there were several parts of V5 that did not work properly in Crossover at the time. That may have been V5 issues or it may have been the version of Crossover . (I wrote most of the KB on using FH under Crossover ). I can confirm that V6 does run fine under the current version of Crossove...

Re: Getting rid of Parallels. What do you use?

Just had a thought, why would V4 work in CrossOver but not V5?
I initially downloaded V4 forgetting the process of installing an upgrade (its been a while since Last installed FH on anything), and V4 opened with no issues at all.

Re: Getting rid of Parallels. What do you use?

I have the current version which is now v17 . I pay for the update each year, although I have never needed their support, the renewal IIRC is 50% of the full licence so for about £25 a year I always have the latest version. If you really don't want to pay for a licence fee then PlayOnMac is probabl...
