#2406 — Filemaker 14

I have just purchased Filemaker 14 and after installation I am dead in the water.

Once the program installed, deleting Filemaker 11 in the process, I get a screen that does not make any sense at all. All I want to do is access my files so I can continue doing data entry, but I cannot figure out how to do this. 

My first thought is delete Filemaker 14 and revert back to Filemaker 11.

Does Filemaker 14 run on your OS?

It's generally a good idea to work with a stable version. Filemaker Inc
released a bugfix update 14.0v2, and there's probably more to come.

You might want to post a screenshot of what you see. That will greatly help us determine what the problem is.

newsgroups don't support inline images. You'll need to use another method.

I have no idea how to post a screen shot as someone suggested. Also I have been informed the old Filemaker 11 was not erased when Filemaker 14 was installed, it was "moved" and became a hidden file.

On a Mac, hold down the Shift and Command keys and press 3. That will
save a screenshot to your desktop, by default it's a PDF, but you can
open that in Preview and resave it as a JPEG.

On Windows press the Print Screen key (may need to also use a function
key on a small keyboard like a laptop). That copies the screen to the
clipboard, which you can then paste into any application that accepts
images - something like Paint is probably best since it can then be
saved as a JPEG.


You can't post a image here, so you need to then upload the JPEG to an
image hosting service like TinyPic.com. That will give you a link which
can then be posted here.

If FileMaker 11 is still there, then double-clicking a database
document *might* open it. 

On a Mac you could also try right-clicking (or hold down the Option key
and click) on a database document, then choose Open With from the
pop-up menu and see if FileMaker 11 is listed there.
