Re: [LegacyUG] Webinars and other products

[Cathy Pinner]

Laura,

A webinar subscription is much better value than purchasing individual 
webinars.


However, I would think that Sales is the best place to ask about your 
purchases and whether you can be given a new link for the downloads.


They shouldn't be corrupting - do you mean that the PDFs are locked and 
you can't unlock them again with the code?

Even when I do download things, they corrupt after a certain period of

"lease," and I can't find anywhere or figure out the policy, where do 
I find the ground rules? Any help will be appreciated.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using tagged people

[Cathy Pinner]

Carl
At the bottom of the screen are a set of boxes. 3 are to do with the RIN 
and MRIN of the current couple. The other two are to do with tags - 
Individual and Married.
The one to do with Individual tags has I:# where # is the number of the 
tag. Click on it and you can change the tag # being used. Click the 
arrows and you go to the next or previous person.
If you keep encountering a message about reaching the end or beginning 
of a list which I find extremely tiresome, you can turn it off - either 
on the message or at Options - Customise 12.5.

Re: [LegacyUG] Direct line

[Cathy Pinner]

Crystal,

One way that some find helpful is to copy their family file (you can use 
File - Save As) and unlink the required branch from the rest of the tree.
Then use View - Trees (remembering to Refresh it) and then tag and 
delete the other "trees".


Another way is to tag the branches you want to export (using Advanced 
Tagging) and export (File - Export to - Legacy file) the tag group to a 
new Legacy file. Which Advanced Tagging options work depend on how many 
links there are between branches in your tree (more than one marriage 
between branches).


Which ever way you go, you may want to read up on Intellishare which can 
be used when people collaborate so long as the files they are using 
originated with the same Legacy file.

Re: [LegacyUG] Favorite new features of V9

[Cathy Pinner]

Kris,

If your hints were mostly trees then you didn't take control of the Hint 
options.


Only part (major agreed) of the MyHeritage hints are from people's trees 
- the Smart Matches - and you can turn off MyHeritage Hints altogether 
or opt to only have Record Matches. The Record Matches are just as 
likely to be matches to FamilySearch data and the best guide that 
FamilySearch has that data.
The FamilySearch hints are hints FamilySearch have made from their 
databases to the FamilySearch tree. They are not a search of the vast 
useful FamilySearch databases. Also you only get them if you have linked 
your person to the FamilySearch tree with the FS ID number.


I mostly only have FindMyPast hints on. They're invaluable to me.

The Hints are less valuable without a subscription but not entirely as 
they indicate the database and that database may be available elsewhere 
with a different subscription or at FamilySearch.


But I don't jump from Hint to Hint. I only look at Hints when I'm 
researching someone to see if they're showing something that I would 
normally initiate a search for (and the answer has so often been yes) or 
something I wouldn't have thought of searching for. eg FindMyPast give 
hints from BillionGraves. Since one of these has helped me break down a 
brick wall of at least 15 years because the gravestone had the birth 
date and place on it, I'm a fan.

Sorry you didn't like it Kris. I like it very well, and have
been busy trying to learn more. I bought 8 and started it
w/o a printed manual, so have some catching up to do. Online
is difficult for older people. When the hints are available
for Ancestry it might be more helpful, as there are original
sources there, as there is also on FamilySearch.org.

Re: [LegacyUG] FW: Passage Express

I think I sent an email to Passage Express years ago suggesting that they

Re: [LegacyUG] Favorite new features of V9

[Bob Austen]

I was cautious of the upgrade to v9 - I copied the v8 files first (and can
now run v8 and v9 at the same time).  However, I have had no reason to look
back. Version 9 has performed very well right from the beginning. I really
have had none of the issues that LUG users are complaining about.  In fact
there were a couple of 'bugs' in v8 that were fixed in v9!
I run Win10 but on a high end computer with lots of RAM - maybe that's a
difference. 

I heartily embrace v9.

Hi all,



I had a similar situation. I was able to regress to v.8, but it wasn't so
easy:

(1) The v.9 installer deleted my installed v.8 (without my permission).
Luckily, 
I had kept my v.8 installer and unlock code, so I could manually uninstall
v.9 
and reinstall v.8.

(2) V. 9 converted the v.8 database I was working on, to its (apparently)
new 
file format, so it wouldn't open with v.9. Luckily, I had kept regular v.8 
backups, so I could restore it in v.8 regress to the very latest database
before 
the attempted switch to v.9. Luckily, I made this decision before investing
much 
work in my v.9 database, so the only wasted effort was the upgrade -->
regress 
process.

(Well, I also wasted the money for v.9, because I made the mistake of paying
for 
v.8 two weeks before the free-upgrade offer started. Under the
circumstances, I 
thought maybe Sales would be friendly and honor the free upgrade anyway.
Nah, no 
such luck.)

Over more than 40 years of working with software, I've learned to be pretty 
obsessive about keeping backups and never throwing anything away, especially

things like old installers. Luckily, disk space is now cheap and plentiful,
so 
being a packrat is not as hard as it used to be. Developers, it seems, have
not 
gotten much better at providing a friendly process for regressing to their
old 
version(s). I guess they figure their new versions are so wonderful and
flawless 
that nobody would ever want to regress.



So when you move up to v.9, just be advised. For now, I'm sticking with v8.

The original message to the list is in the attachment.

This action is required because of the DMARC Reject/Quarantine Policy
imposed by some email providers. Users who want to send messages
without conversion to attachments should use a different email address
for their subscription.

Known providers for free email accounts whose emails do not require
this conversion include gmail.com and hotmail.com.  Many other email
providers will also work but you will have to give them a try.--- Begin Message ---
I have the same problem. Moreover, some people "disappear" from my database. 
When that happens, I have to force-shut my program and re-boot. Very very 
frustrating and no, I have not found a way around the problem!Leo

[LegacyUG] Version 9 running slow

[Goodwin Genealogy]

Since downloading the latest update (9.0.0.182) my Legacy is running a lot
slower that it did prior to the latest update.

>From time to time the program even locks up on me.

Has anyone else run into this problem and if so have you found a work
around?

I am running Windows 10 under all the updates.

Re: [LegacyUG] Favorite new features of V9

[Kris]

Hi, Allen --

I upgraded to v.9 and after trying it out for a week or two reverted 
back to v.8.  For me, the new features didn't outweigh the problems.


Regarding the "Hints" specifically, if you aren't subscribed to the 
sites that the hints use, it's not much help. The hints also seemed to 
consist mostly of information from user uploaded trees, and not original 
records.  I get the same, or better, results using customized "Search 
the Internet" options in v.8.


If you DO decide to upgrade to v.9, be sure you're prepared, otherwise 
going back to v.8 can be difficult, if not impossible.  Fortunately, I 
knew about the potential pitfalls before installing v.9 from the reports 
on this list, so it was a simple matter to switch back to v.8.


That said, this is just my experience and there are many users here who 
are very pleased with the new version.

Here is a URL that tells all the new features.

I love all the new features.  Hinting, Find-A-Grave, and Stories are 
my favorite.

Re: [LegacyUG] Passage Express

[Allen Prunty]

Perhaps they will release it into the public domain.  It's a shame that 
when software companies are "done" with a product they just mothball 
it.  For someone, Passage Express was a love and passion when they 
designed it,  Chances are that it did not return enough revenue to 
justify its continued development.  In this case the greatest gift that 
a software company could do would be to release it in to the Public 
Domain.  If the product is something that people truly would use someone 
will step up and continue development on it, even if it's on a hobby basis.

When it first came out it was a third party product. My understanding 
though is that those developers no longer wanted to update the program 
and a deal was worked out where Millennia got the source code and 
authorization to maintain it so in that respect it became a Millennia 
product.


I do not know why it was discontinued but I suspect that Millennia did 
not have the programmer resources to maintain Passage Express and fix 
a number of bugs in the program.
