I too use and would suggest Dropbox. I also fully endorse Bruce’s comments on usage. To put it another way: do not have Legacy open on two (or more) computers at the same time.

My Legacy file is current on all of them no matter which I use to update Legacy. One caution is that you need to make sure you close Legacy and give enough time for Dropbox to upload your changed Legacy file and download it to the other computer(s) before opening Legacy on them (usually just a few seconds depending on the speed of your network connection). I have been using Dropbox for this purpose for quite some time and I am very pleased with the result.

Is there a way to keep the two files in sync when I update on one and not the other? Also is there a way to keep it updated when I add something to my Ancestry tree online and want to add the same information to my file on my computer without retyping everything?
