Installation
The download should automatically mount as a disk, show the GEDitCOM II installation package (GEDitCOM II.mpkg), and start the installation process. If installation does not automatically start, double click the package to start it. If the download does not automatically mount a disk, double click the downloaded .dmg file to mount the disk and then double click the installation package file.
Registration
If you decide to buy, you can purchase a license to get a permanent unlocking code. Enter that code into the demo you already downloaded to have the full version. You do not need to download again.
Import Your Own Genealogy Data
The best way to evaluate the demo is to try it on your own genealogy data. To import your own data, do the following:
- Start the genealogy application with your data (Mac or PC)
- Find the option to "Export" the data to a GEDCOM file and save to GEDCOM file
- Copy that exported file to your Mac with GEDitCOM II
- Start GEDitCOM II and open the file you exported in step 2
GEDitCOM II will read 100% of any GEDCOM file you give it. If any data is missing, it must mean the other genealogy application you used did not export it correctly. Fortunately most applications export well enough to get nearly all your data into GEDitCOM II.
If you do not have any genealogy data yet, try the sample files in the "GEDitCOM Extras" folder that gets installed along with GEDitCOM II.
