Installed 2012 and loaded FTM 2010 database, loaded fine 79000 individuals and 1490 media files. Running Win 7, 9 gb's ram. What did take time was uploading tree to Ancestry. Several try's failed. Reread 2012 Guide to be sure i was doing it right. Was doing the uploads during the day when traffic was probably high at Ancestry. So after several failures, i uploaded after Midnight and went to bed. It was done in the morning and Tree was in sync. Have had no problems since. My favorite of all time was FTM16, but when i went to WIn 7 new computer i could never get it to work properly, even thou others were not having problems. So i went with FTM2010 until FTM 2012 got here. Mary
