Let me know how you get Thanks! I was able to get the activation done and the constant UiaDisconnectProvider exceptions are gone. It's possible that you could get better results with an Intel-based MacBook. I have an M1 chip, which adds another emulation layer to the stack. Just recently, the only way out was to force-restart the machine. There also issues with modifier keys getting stuck, and sometimes with CrossOver freezing. The crippled web browser also explains why you can't click on hyperlinks, or use other interactive result rendering features of LINQPad. It works better in a 32-bit bottle, although I've had no success in getting the 32-bit version of. When I launch IE as a standalone browser in a Win 10 64-bit bottle, it doesn't get as far as displaying the default page, which is not a good sign. It looks like CrossOver provides something that emulates IE9. It's difficult to determine their cause, although they seem to be connected to use of the WebBrowser control, which LINQPad uses to render results. The biggest outstanding problem, though, is frequent page faults. Also, LINQPad's debugger UI, which is written in WPF, appears to overstretch Wine's rendering capabilities. While autocompletion should mostly be working, I've had little success in lighting up the debugger: the target process appears to crash after resuming from a break. Note that you can fix the blocky rendering by control-clicking the bottle containing LINQPad, and selecting Settings > High Resolution Mode. This allows you to activate a paid edition, and works around most of the UiaDisconnectProvider exceptions. Thanks.I've uploaded a special build that you can try: If the latter, that would make me rather nervous! Has anyone made backups on the Mac/Crossover combination? If so, I'd be grateful for an idiot's guide on how to do it. When I close Crossover does the updated project file automatically save to that same drive or does Crossover keep it somewhere within the app? If the former then it would be a simple matter of making a backup copy regularly from the drive. When I installed Crossover I opened the project from an external hard drive. I don't understand where the GEDCOM files of my projects reside, nor how to back them up so that I can recover my data in the event of a disc failure. I eventually got it all running properly although I'm not entirely comfortable with the setup. ![]() ![]() I am currently using the trial version of Crossover (I think it's version 20 now) on Big Sur. I wasn't going to take this route but there isn't a Mac specific app that comes near FH6 (IMO). Like others posting on this thread I am trying to run FH6 on my newly acquired Mac. ![]() frequent delays in refreshing/updating the screen when switching between views. So far, the current Beta Version seems to be performing better for me (more smoothly) than 19.1, which sometimes seemed to have problems with Family Historian, i.e. One final caveat: You may wish to delay upgrading for a short while, as Crossover 20 (Beta) is currently in testing and past experience suggests that the final Version 20 will probably be released in September, unless any really serious problems are identified in testing, as they do tend to be very close to the final version before releasing beta versions for wider user testing. If you don't do it in that order there is a possibility that the MacOS upgrade will auto-remove/disable any 'non-compatible 32-bit software'. It really needs to be Crossover first to overcome the problems with 32-bit software and that will update the structure of any existing Family Historian application and also any other Windows apps you have installed in Crossover, for compatibility with the MacOS (Catalina) upgrade. ![]() Normally, I would update MacOS first and then existing software but, as no Crossover version prior to 19.x is compatible with MacOS Catalina that approach doesn't work particularly well.
