Al, Richard is correct. I believe the issue may be in attempting to write to the CD/DVD directly from the application. The CD/DVD needs to be prepared (opened) for writing and then finished (closed) for reading in other systems. In general, the directory structure isn't written until the CD/DVD is closed. Instructions differ based on your configuration, but here are some general instructions for Windows8. How Do I Burn a CD or DVD in Windows 8?

Then, when the backup is done, go ahead and write to the CD/DVD. Oh, be sure to check the options for the backup that you desire (e.g., copy media files, allow restored back to sync with ancestry, etc.) Regards, Bill From: Richard Francis Pimentel <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, December 6, 2014 12:08 PM Subject: RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Backup file using FTM 2014 #yiv4778147948 #yiv4778147948 -- _filtered #yiv4778147948 {font-family:Calibri;panose-1:2 15 5 2 2 2 4 3 2 4;} _filtered #yiv4778147948 {font-family:Tahoma;panose-1:2 11 6 4 3 5 4 4 2 4;} _filtered #yiv4778147948 {panose-1:2 4 6 2 5 3 5 3 3 4;}#yiv4778147948 #yiv4778147948 p.yiv4778147948MsoNormal, #yiv4778147948 li.yiv4778147948MsoNormal, #yiv4778147948 div.yiv4778147948MsoNormal {margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-size:12.0pt;}#yiv4778147948 a:link, #yiv4778147948 span.yiv4778147948MsoHyperlink {color:blue;text-decoration:underline;}#yiv4778147948 a:visited, #yiv4778147948 span.yiv4778147948MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:purple;text-decoration:underline;}#yiv4778147948 p {margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12.0pt;}#yiv4778147948 span.yiv4778147948EmailStyle18 {color:windowtext;font-weight:bold;}#yiv4778147948 .yiv4778147948MsoChpDefault {font-size:10.0pt;} _filtered #yiv4778147948 {margin:1.0in 1.0in 1.0in 1.0in;}#yiv4778147948 div.yiv4778147948WordSection1 {}#yiv4778147948 Hi Al, I have not used FTM since the 2011 version but you might try looking for the Family Tree Maker file in your Documents. That is where All the Family Tree maker Files are stored. Then just make a copy and paste it to your CD disk.
