Before installing Family Tree Maker, make sure your Windows PC or Mac has enough storage space and meets the requirements for your FTM version. It is also a good idea to create a backup of your existing family tree before starting an upgrade or fresh installation. Family Tree Maker Support can be useful when you experience installation errors, activation problems, missing files, or difficulties opening the software after installation. If you are moving from an older version, keep your original tree files and backup copies safe until the new installation works correctly. Family Tree Maker Support can also help users understand common setup and troubleshooting steps. After installation, check your tree, media files, family relationships, and linked services to ensure everything transferred correctly.
