Did you visit and link with Family Search on computer where the dates were NOT modified?
If not, then Dave’s message perhaps explains why. And if not, if you are willing to experiment (after backing up) try visiting and linking with Family Search on that computer, then tell us the result.

Many thanks to Bob who discovered this. I know that Jim from tech support said that this was not reversible, however, that would seem to not be the case. Since I have been still holding off entering new information, I tried to restore from my last backup before August 29 - and it worked! No errors, and best of all, my old modified dates have returned! The only thing I need to re-enter is the info that I was working on the day I updated and visited Family Search. So the latest version does indeed seem to work when restoring an older backup from previous version. I will not be visiting Family Search again from within Legacy unless I know this has been fixed. Everything in my data appears to be ok, unless there is something else I don't see that is not right about the database.

Overall, linking to FS seems to be creating problems that far outweigh any benefits. I will stick with manually searching FS and/or Ancestry. If any changes are made or data added to my database, it will be by my choice only.

I know for a fact that merely /looking/ at the details at FS creates a change-record and stamps you as the maker of the last change. Cheryl Bob Janice wrote: Since it appears that my dates have changed also, I did a little bit of playing around tonight trying to pinpoint the problem. What made me curious was the fact that some people said their dates did change while others said they didn't. I noticed that the last modified date would change if I logged into Family Search from within Legacy and simply looked at the possible matches for an individual. I simply looked - didn't update any of the information either from or to Family Search. If someone else could take a look at this it MAY explain why some peoples dates changed and others did not. Perhaps those that did had accessed Family Search and those that didn't did not access it. Just a thought . . .
