@edilalla142 I don't know of any such method myself, but do wish there was a download function from Antenati. My guess is there are copyright matters precluding that being the case.

When using my MacBook Air, a work-around is that I simply use Command+Shift+4 function. That way you can copy the record, which is then deposited in my "All My Files" folder. From there, I save the copied record to an appropriately labeled DropBox file.

After that, and while in the FTM program, you can click on relevant person from your Tree and then the button located to the right of that Individual or their birthday, etc., and use the "Add New Source-Citation" to then upload the saved file I just mentioned. You need to click on the Media tab in the Add Source Citation box that opens. Lastly, the Attach New Media button will take you to you computer's hard drive, from which you can then choose the saved file.

A bit confusing at first, but I hope this helps.
