Barbara,

Do you have your dates set to display as yyyy-mm-dd and 1869-05 means May 1869?
That's a valid date. But perhaps the interface isn't reading that format.
If you mean 1869-1905, then it isn't a valid date.

You can turn on Date Checking at Options-Customise 5.5 and/or use the Potential Problem report with only the criteria on the Problems tab set - Check for valid dates

BTW - it really helps if you start a new email for a new topic rather than highjacking a current one and changing the subject line. Like many, I use threaded email to group conversations and this is all mixed up with the question about updating Legacy.

I get that all the time when doing internet searches on Familysearch and Findmypast. Checked my dates and there was nothing out of the ordinary. I have no idea why!

*Subject: *[LegacyUG] Invalid date format

This past week I've been running into some dates on my Legacy that look like
this:
1869-05      and then showing on the "Task" screen, the Familysearch side:
Problem: invalid date format

Can someone tell me what that's all about?  This is just since I download
Legacy 9
Barb L,

Legacy does not do automatic updates every 30 days, they are issued as necessary. The last update was 13 Jun to build 9.0.0.189.

Do you mean the reminder to check for updates every 30 days instead. That is set in options 12. Other Settings > Section 12.5 Message Boxes. The update reminder is on the prompts/Reminders tab. If you updated to 9.0.0.189 your 30 day reminder will not be due until 12 or 13 July.

If the update to 9.0.0.189 failed you should still see that there is a new update when you are on the Legacy Home Tab and should be able to update from there.

I botched the automatic update that legacy provides every 30 days. How do get it update without going through my browser?

Like Reset the clock to 20 days?
