I wonder if W10 is the cause of your problems? I've recently moved to RootsMagic v7 (from a different application), but I'm running it under Mac OS, and even though it's not a native Mac application I'm not having any of the problems that you mention (and which I've seen others report on the RM user group on FaceBook). As a Mac user I obviously never used RM6, and I downloaded v7 directly from the RM site. I did have some problems with the very first download, but there was a big update earlier this year, before all the excitement over FTM, and since then everything has been fine - touch wood! On the whole I'm very pleased with RM though I don't really like the rather old fashioned Windows-ish look. My only worry is that the new agreement for syncing with Ancestry will delay work on the native Mac application.
