CONVERT MACGOURMET FILES TO WINDOWS
I have a lot of recipes already in MacGourmet and transferring to another software was a pain last time I seriously looked at switching (I originally used MasterCook on a windows system and have made the conversion once and don't want to make it again unless it is easy). I don't import too many recipes anymore (have way too many already collected) so this isn't a big issue for me. They had a period when it didn't work too well - Still may be their weakest feature.

You may have been unhappy with the import feature of MacGourmet when you switched to Paprika. I think Paprika and MacGourmet are far more alike than different. And I'm just a customer - no kickback for this endorsement! You can also search by name ("meat loaf," for example) if you haven't made a category for that already, and all of your meat loaf recipes come up (I just did a search, and because it's SO darn easy to import recipes, it turns out that I have 18 meat loaf recipes!!! Here's a screen shot showing how you can create any category you want, and the same recipe can be in as many of them as you like, so it's really easy: It can also convert your recipe into a grocery list, though I don't use that a lot. I used to use MacGourmet and liked it, but got frustrated for some reason I no longer remember, and switched to Paprika, and I LOVE Paprika! I agree with that it's amazingly easy to import recipes from the Web, and a great thing about an app is that I have ALL of my recipes in my pocket anywhere I go! (I have Paprika on my computer, my iPhone and my iPad.) If I'm away from home, they're all still right there in my pocket. It does take some time and effort to convert if you are still all paper, but well worth it. So much easier to keep organized more useful than old index cards. I do have a couple of three ring binders with printed out copies of my favorite recipes.

I have been using recipe software for years now.
