It seems the latter is failing to complete. In the dock you see the FH icon appear twice, one for FH app and one for the Wineloader. Second attempt gave the same error message as my Macbook and quit. First time it just hung at the FH opening screen and I had to force quit. My license information was verified and stored. When I tried to run FH was prompted for FH trial or license details as before and I added. They appear much the same on both computers (a lot of files so haven't checked rigorously). A host of windows related files install in a new folder Crossover in the my Users/Colin/Library/Applications Support directory. (On the Macbook both the app itself and the win installs installed in the same new Users/Applications/ folder). The only difference I could see was that the Crossover app itself installed in my default Applications folder while the windows installations installed in a new Applications folder created in my Users directory. Added nothing else and for the install unticked Create Desktop Icon and unticked Run FH as before. Followed the KB instructions selecting Family Historian from the unsupported applications list, selected my FH installation file (install_fh5.0.0_dl.exe) and a new XP bottle with the default name Family Historian. The same Crossover version 14.0.3 installed. In thought case the Parallels and Win XP installations might have interfered in some way I downloaded another trial of Crossover on my iMac (OSX v 10.7.5 same as the Macbook Pro) which has never run these softwares. Mike, appreciate the suggestion but I tried this also. app file as well as a Crossover sub-folder which has a subfolder Family Historian in which are the various app files seen in the bottle viz: Family Historian, Family Historian help, Readme, Uninstall FH and Getting Started with FH5.Īpologies if I'm missing something obvious. Crossover has installed in a newly created Applications folder in Users. Sorry but could you also clarify for me your Windows Script 5.7 comment. Files in the bottle are as my original post. Selected to use my local copy of FH5.0, used FH's default path (C:Program Files/Family Historian) for installed location and unticked Desktop Icon and Run Family Historian. ![]() Deleted the FamilyHistorian bottle and started over. The various crossover files listed above loaded automatically. ![]() Deleted the initial bottle with the upgrade that I first tried and just installed FH v5.0. I'd like to ditch Parallels if at all possible. Might this have a bearing? (It wasn't an issue running an XP Home virtual machine under Parallels).Īny help much appreciated. ![]() The Mac is 64 bit machine although I believe the XP bottle is 32-bit only. I also downloaded Windows Script 5.7 although this has installed in a separate XP bottle but my understanding is this can affect plugins but should not affect base program launch? But should this have been installed in the Family Historian bottle? ![]() The installed applications in the Family Historian bottle created are Crossover HTML engine, Family Historian v5, Family Historian pdf (have not yet deleted per FHUG recommendation), Microsoft Rich Edit 2, Microsoft Rich Edit 4.1 (Msftedit.dll), MicrosoftVisual C++ 2010, Microsoft Visual FoxPro OLE DB Provider, msls31, Uniscribe and Wine Gecko (32-bit).Īll seems to have installed OK but when I try to run FH, the program attempts to launch (I see the opening FH screen initially) but get error message "Error: Access violation at 0x92CD0CC5 (tried to read from 0x01400000), program terminated" Downloaded 14 day trial Crossover version 14.0.3 and installed FH v5 into a new Win XP bottle using my original downloaded purchased copy adding my license number which was stored. Have been been running FH v 5.9 on my 15" late 2008 Macbook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) using Parallels v7 with Windows XP Home.
