Hi, tried the Family Tree section but no luck as yet.

I have been using Family Tree Maker on a PC until recently.

Have a new Apple Macbook Air, which i love very much, but....FTM website says it is not compatible on Macs.

So, i have loads of info on Gedcom on a memory stick atm, what i can do with it? Stick with (a new version of) FTM on DH's PC, limiting when i can work on it?
or,
Find some software that works on the Mac and change everything over?

I have MacFamilyTree. I've not used it much yet (I have everything on ancestry and it's taking me ages to move it over) but it seems fine. Looking at it there is an 'import from Gedcom' icon and the manual has details about importing and exporting Gedcom so it shouldn't be a problem (though I've not done it). Before I bought it I downloaded a trial version which lets you play with all the features but not save anything. You might want to try that.
