By default Rosetta Stone has Kanji/Furigana as how it reads I should change that to Hirigana and Katakana?

 

Also from what I am reading Rosetta Stone is not a great way to learn Japanese

uhm, I don't know how the Rosetta Stone programm is structured, but as I said, simply learning the 100~ characters of the Hiragana/Katakana syllabaries should come prior to learning any words or anything

most of the japanese words are written in Kanji, but each sentence usually contains Hiragana characters aswell and if something is using Furigana it means that the reading of a Kanji-based word is written above it in Hiragana, so you can atleast read how it is pronounced once you can read Hiragana

Can you link me to exactly what you are talking about so I am sure to study the correct thing?
